* Her song, "The Way I Loved You" bugs me. The message in this song is basically: Nice guys that respect you are boring, the best relationships are the ones that keep you up all night crying and cursing the other person. That's just a terrible message in general, but it's even worse when you consider that her biggest fans are teen girls.

*** Love Story always came off as a parody to me, since both RomeoAndJuliet and ScarletLetter are constantly misunderstood as romance stories, or their plots are used and altered to make romance stories. You see it all the time with fanfiction and pretty much any other version of the story that isn't word-for-word from the stories themselves, though R&J is especially guilty of this. I thought Taylor was mocking the people who think of them that way. Almost every R&J story you see subverts the DownerEnding to make them live happily ever after.

** What's even worse about that song? The ScarletLetter. Has she read The Scarlet Letter? Has she read the back of The Scarlet Letter? Has she ever heard even the slightest thing about the content of The Scarlet Letter? Why the hell would you want to compare yourself to The Scarlet Letter? It's not romantic. It has nothing to do with Romeo and Juliet. It doesn't even flow well lyrically. It just comes across as her trying to look smart and cultured and failing, badly.

* Taylor Swift is/was a teenage girl singing for an audience consisting mainly of teenage girls. "Petty revenge" songs are sort of a wish-fulfillment fantasy.

* So, it's been what, five years since Taylor became a national superstar? And no one's thought to give her lessons on how to sing live yet?! I can forgive her immaturity in regards to relationships and the lyrical simplicity of her songs, but the fact that she's glaringly off-tune in every live performance I've ever seen her do seems like something that should've been fixed a very long time ago. Especially for an award-winning singer.

*** Except we only have her word to go on about that. Some poor schlub could have broken up with her because he thinks she's immature, they're just not compatible, or just doesn't want to deal with the drama of dating a musician (who admitedly can be a very tempermental group), and may have even been very nice and sensitive as to how he went about it and still gets a song written about how much of a dick he is and how she's so much better than a loser like him.

** FridgeBrilliance: The song is written as though Taylor Swift didn't know how the play ends... neither did Juliet. For all we know, they both die after the song ends. I [[YourMileageMayVary think]] it works better that way.
