MUSIC! TAYLOR SWIFT SKYROCKETS

Ever since The Liberty Sphere first posted an introduction to young Taylor Swift, the 17-year-old country singer/songwriter, all predictions concerning her skyrocketing success have been surpassed.

Not only did the singer score a top hit with her very first release, she has since added her first number one single to her belt, appeared on 'Live with Regis and Kelly,' won the Country Music award for best new artist, and been the subject of countless articles and features in publications and TV news stories such as 'Rolling Stone,' 'Billboard,' and the BBC.

To say that Swift has taken the music industry by storm is an understatement.

The significance of her rapid rise to fame is highlighted by the fact that when she first came to Nashville a major producer told her, via a news report rather than in person, that she probably didn't have much of a chance of success and that she should return home, finish high school, and then perhaps consider a shot at singing.

It was that same year that Swift recorded her first major hit, 'Tim McGraw,' and began touring extensively.

Now, a little over one year later, Swift is playing to sold-out venues across the country.

And for those who don't particularly care for Country Music, 'Rolling Stone' stated that the singer has plenty of crossover appeal as she rocks the entirety of the music world.

At this point it appears the sky is the limit for this talented young lady.

Tell me about it!! She is turning 18 soon, and at this late stage of life I have decided to become a groupie.

18 is legal ;) haha

Welshman said...

Well, if you decide to become a groupie too, then perhaps our paths will cross out there somewhere in the music underworld...

Welshman said...

LOL. Don't laugh. I swear, before I die I'm gonna become a groupie for one of these hot, young female singers out on the road, provided they are of legal age.

It is on my list of top 25 things to do before I am too old to enjoy it...

hehe well, ok then whatever floats your boat man:)

Hey Marty, check out Amy Winehouse, thats where it's at man. I mean musically cause she's minimally attractive and something of a drug addict.

Welshman said...

Yeah, she's alright, I suppose...not really my cup of tea, but ok. Just hope she makes it out of her 20s, which is doubtful if she continues on the present course...
