This week I chose to write about the song “Tim McGraw” by Taylor Swift. Growing up, country music was easily the only music I listened to, and Taylor Swift was who I wanted to be when I grew up. Her country albums shaped my childhood, and I remember listening to this song and thinking what a pretty song it was.
This song has a strong acoustic guitar presence that compliments her voice perfectly. The song is slow and sad and sweet all at once, and the lyrics make you want to reminisce on your past loves, or someday experience something like she has. The lyrics “ When you think happiness I hope you think "that little black dress", show that she hopes that she reminds her Ex-Lover of happiness and that he thinks of her, just like she still thinks about him, and that she always holds onto memories of him.
Although she’s still producing music and generating more fame, I don’t think anything could possibly beat her country albums. In my opinion they show more raw emotions, and honestly they just hit different. That could be because I grew up on them, but country Taylor Swift will always be the best Taylor Swift.
I'm going to be completely honest, I thought the start was "Taylor Swift' by Tim McGraw. As for your blog post, it was very in-depth. It gave me a good amount of knowledge about the song. I like how you slipped in your own little take at the end, but not writing a completely biased post.
