Album Description
Taylor Swift has been enhanced by the addition of 3 brand new tracks ("I'm Only Me When I'm With You", "Invisible", "A Perfectly Good Heart") and a pop version of the hit single "Teardrops On My Guitar"
Amazon.com
Three years ago, a 13-year old Taylor Swift set out to be a star and moved from Reading, Pennsylvania, to Nashville. By 14, she had a publishing deal, and by 15, a recording contract. In these days of Bianca Ryan (and before her, Tanya Tucker and LeAnn Rimes), many are called, but few are chosen. Swift, it appears, is one of the chosen ones. Her vocal talent is modest, though sweetly affecting, her style seemingly influenced by the radio hits of early Sheryl Crow and Michelle Branch, and perhaps Cyndi Thomson. And at times, her youthfulness shows--she encoded messages in the lyrics of her CD booklet, starting with the name of the boy who cheated on her from "Should've Said No" (the album's strongest offering). But in writing or co-writing all 11 songs on this debut, Swift demonstrates remarkable maturity, particularly in crafting a hooky, radio-ready chorus. Though she sounds ridiculous looking back from the perspective of an 87-year old woman on "Mary's Song," to her credit she mostly writes about what she knows--unrequited high-school crushes ("Teardrops on My Guitar"), teenage angst ("Tied Together with a Smile"), and complete immersion in starry-eyed romance (her breakout hit "Tim McGraw"). Swift has such wistful charm and tunefulness that only a curmudgeon could dismiss her, and in fact, more than 60,000 fans lined up to grab this CD the first month of release. No wonder Rascal Flatts and George Strait added her to their tours. Look out, Carrie Underwood--there's a new kid in town. --Alanna Nash

 Not worth the money December 17, 2008

I bought this CD based on the raving reviews. It's just OK. You hear a couple of songs, you hear them all. Only one song that really stands out is the one she's known for "Teardrops on my guitar". The rest is pretty much the same. Same beat, same pitch, same style. Unbearable after awhile.
 Taylor Swift's CE December 15, 2008
This CD is very good. Taylor Swift is a great singer, and person. She sets a good example for young ladies. The USA needs more people like Tayor. Thank You.

Taylor Swift is one of the worst singers I have ever heard. Whenever I see her perform on awards shows I am embarrassed for her (and cringing). I just don't understand how she ever got a record deal. And I don't understand her popularity. IMO, the girl just cannot carry a tune in a bucket.
 Taylor Swift -song maniac November 28, 2008
I wanted this cd sooo bad, so my mom got it for my birthday. in this cd, she made songs of different topics, such breakups and being alone. However, I might not get Fearless because I am a big fan of the jonas brothers, and a lot of of the songs are about joe jonas.She has a great voice. If you are a taylor swift fan, I seriously recommend this cd.
