Wait...What? Taylor Swift actually sounds good!
Maybe it's because she is only singing the hook. Maybe it's because she only has two lines that she repeats.
I wish I was strong enough to lift not one but both of us. Some day I will be strong enough to lift not one but both of us. Maybe it's because I'm not yet feeling B.O.B's part in the song. I don't know why, but Taylor Swift's voice in those two sentences does not sound her usual nasally self. GL, wtf? We might make nice for this hook. That's probably not gonna happen, but good job TS on this. So will these two lines finally bag her a number one pop single in the US? She pulled a Katy and nabbed a rapper, so things are looking up. http://perezhilton.com/2012-04-11-bo...e#.T4ZzZ3huElI |

I've never thought Taylor Swift didn't sound good, nor do I think she sounds any different than usual on this record. She's not my sort of thing, but her talent I've never questioned. The less said about the ever-becoming-generic rap part the better.

No worries. Do you not hear Buble's lisp either? (see World on a String) For some reason I hear things some people don't, kind of like that kid who sees dead people.

I don't know about Buble, and its possible Taylor Swift is nasally, yet she's shifted the odd-million sales, so she can't sound all that bad. Then again, I do have a bit of a crush on her, so I am more used to looking at her, than listening to her.

Cute is an understatement. She genuinely comes across as a very nice girl. That Kayne West moment was heartbreaking. Also, in today's music industry, someone who writes all their own songs and music, can play instruments and is not auto-tuned or miming to death, should be applauded, regardless if either of us like her music.
![]() About the auto-tune, hmmm, I'm not sure how to break this to you ![]() But it's not to death anyway. And she is a good role model for the little kids who go to her shows and look up to her. And she does come across as a very nice girl. It's almost 2am in California. G'night S74! |

The west incident just made taylor stronger and helped open her music up to everyone world wide, while for poor kayne all he got was abuse from artists of all music genres, outside wests fanbase it will be the one and only thing he will be remembered for, pretty sad really. I dont like this collaboration, taylor dont really need to be doing this sort of stuff, messing around with any old tin pot artist dont always work in you favour. Her collaboration with the civil wars was far better ,maybe the difference being she intially wrote the song where i guess with this one she had little input to the music but if it helps this rapper sell music then guess they both win, just dont want taylor getting a reputation of teaming up with any tom, dick or harry. I would love to see her team up with Bruce Springsteen and write a real rocking song, bruce is a big fan of taylor so you never know. |

Taylor gets plenty of applause for all those things you have listed, normally from the biggest stars on the planet. She is a very unique talent who will have a very long career.

Ye i thought that was a bad dream, not good news and her constant attachment to bieber, gomaz and the like is one of the things taylor needs to drop if she is to be really classed as one of the all time greats in years to come. Being friends with them is fine but thats where she should leave it. Think they are gonna sing one of taylors penned songs so not sure if they are gonna write together, not even sure if bieber can write songs anyway.

![]() And this song will probably do very well. It's got vanilla rap and America's sweetheart mixed together for a safe, nothing new, generic song. The tired words are tepid at best but white folks will think they're edgy for listening to a black rapper pounding his chest to these pandering lyrics. Sounds like the perfect summer confection right here. The hook is catchy though.

Actually someone sent me the link as a new music leak. Regardless of how I view any one singer, music is my hobby and I'll listen to anything at least once.

I really don't get this song at all. I like B.O.B aswell but I really dislike this and think it's one of the worse songs she has ever been involved in. Lyrics of Taylor's part baffles me.
Seems strange to me that the OP brings this up as a good vocal from Taylor. Clearly not heard much of her material. |

It wouldn't be so bad if she had partnered with a rapper with some credibility but B.O.B? He's Rent A Rapper!

shes not a unique talent as she produces generic pop country however she does write her own stuff, like adele which is to be applauded, she gets less applause from the biggest artists than adele for her stuff and kanye west although a complete clown will be remembered for far longer than taylor swift as an innovator who has produced new and excting music, something that taylor swift has been unable to do yet

What?!?! I'd say B.o.B is a very credible rapper. He's extremely talented. Pitbull is an example of a rapper without much credibility at the moment.
Here is the performance at taylor dallas cowboy stadium concert. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cE7-N8mLrk |

i think its more likely she is branching out civil wars now BOB next Beiber all with different fans and music its a shrewd bit of marketing on her part she cant be playing the same songs for the rest of her career but still say safe and sound is way better.
