Love her too, she's hot. Not keen on her new single but Love Story was great.

She is stunning. The CSI remix of You're Not Sorry is awesome. I hope they release this as a single. It will be a huge hit on Radio.

I still think Love Story is one of the best songs released in the UK this year.

I can't go to any of the three dates so I'm hoping that she may add more dates especially a Cardiff date! *Fingers crossed!* Lol! Do you think that she will add more dates at all & have you seen her live before???

Oh no that's not good! No,I haven't seen her before, but she's on my list of "must-sees". Luckily the list is getting shorter rather than longer now.

As for extra dates, I'm not sure. Maybe if the ones already planned sell out really quickly?

Lol she's on my list of "must-sees" too along with GaGa (AGAIN lol), Selena Gomez & Ke$ha! Yeah I guess it depends on how well the dates sell & if they sell out straight away or not. Have you heard that 'Mine' is only around the number 25 mark in the midweeks?! I'm gutted for her! I hope that the 'Speak Now' album does better though which I'm sure it will do!

I think she's more of an album artist than single artist anyway, if you get me?

I think ahe has a lot of UK fans, who will be waiting for Speak Now, rather than buying the single, especially as it hasn't got a B-Side to it

True, true although I will still buy 'Mine' & 'Love Story' did really well when it was released as a single! But as you say her albums do sell more.

I really like Taylor.
I love Mine, and her album seems to be doing okay, it's currently number 2 on iTunes
I'd really love to see her on tour, but she's only doing 3 dates, and none of them are near me

Has anyone seen all of The Hub's 'Taylor Swift- Journey To Fearless' TV programme? Contains some great live performances

Not heard the new album yet, may pick it up later this week

Yeah downloaded that a while back 3 seperate episodes about 45 minutes each.
Love the bit when she goes in the crowd during Tim Mcgraw, incredible passion she has for her fans.
And when she sings the best day live for her Ma on mothers day at her concert, one of the most moving things I have seen.
Also loved seeing her best friend Abigal discussing Taylors Fifteen song as it was about her.

Being on a radio 1 playlist is a miracle in itself, real shame that the UK is the only place on the planet she is not big. Its a shame that so many people in the UK are missing out on this incredible talent.

I think the fact that this thread is still alive is a miracle

Its a shame but her music just doesn't seem the mesh with the mainstream audience. I will continue to support though as I am sure a few of us in the UK will. Her next album (whenever it arrives) will be very very interesting to see if she can continue to develop further from Fearless & Speak Now.

I don't think I've heard anything on Radio from her apart from Love Story. British Radio is so bad nowadays - it has it's favourites that get played constantly on every station and nobody else gets a look in.
I really admire her for writing and playing her own music - not many of them about. I heard her on the Ken Bruce show discussing why doing this was so important to her.
She also comes across as a really nice person

Mean is her next single, I think it (should) do well on the radio.

EDIT: But undoubtedly it won't.

It should go top ten but frankly who cares; as long as she continues to put out great records she will continue to be successful in America

Dug out some cool taylor stuff, had these links in a folder in my favourites

Here is the three part journey to fearless documentary, each part is around 45 minutes long so lots of stuff included many live performances in their entirety

http://www.youtube.com/user/Lucvdb#p/a/u/2/3Zw08od8rPI

http://www.youtube.com/user/Lucvdb#p/a/u/1/FS6DtGDD1ag

http://www.youtube.com/user/Lucvdb#p/a/u/0/sPIET_t88vw

Here is some other great stuff as well.

Here is the speak now promotion in New York and LA, also includes highlights of her NBC special she did on a new york rooftop which was shown on thanksgiving day. You also get to see a performance of haunted while they are in LA and a live performance of part of mean at a sound check on the rooftop for watching cameramen. Also a great performance of back to December in central park.
Does anyone know what building she did the NBC special from, it looks a few blocks south of the Empire state building, I lived in new York for a few years but just can’t place what skyscraper she is on.

This is the NBC special behind the scenes

Here is her set from the Sound relief at Sydney cricket ground in Australia from about 18 months ago, check out the massive crowd bouncing up and down during love story and the fantastic 10 minute version of change. Even all this time ago you can see she is destined to become a superstar
And ladies, Paul Sidoti with a beard, he does look hot

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kDJ2e4qBuQ Change

Here is the making of change from one of the US versions of fearless album, it really shows her dedication and love for writing and performing songs. Great shots of her playing change on guitar for nathan chapman her producer
