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

GREAT! SHE'S SO GREAT. (2008-08-26)

Taylor Swift is so sweet and innocent. I love listening to her. She is my 7 year old grandchild's favorite. She knows all the words to all of her songs and her inspiration is to be Taylor Swift!

I look forward to the next album! (2008-08-21)

I am very surprised that such a young girl has such a good and adult voice. Her music is a beautiful form of modern country. I really like this album and I hope that she will release another album soon.

Excellent offering from great new talent (2008-08-19)

When I first heard of Taylor Swift, I thought, "Oh great, another teeny-bopper trying to sugar-coat everything." How wrong I was. Taylor Swift's talent reaches beyond her voice; her song-writing is brilliant. Each song is clever and catchy, and the lyrics, though written in a teenage vein, touch a chord with any age. "Shoulda Said No" was the stand-out song for me.

Big fan (2008-08-14)

I am a big fan of Taylor Swift. She is such a great inspiration to the younger generation. She has found fame but is still down to earth. I love the fact that you can see two vidoes when you play this CD in a computer DVD player. All the songs on this CD are destined to be top singles and Taylor is a great song writer as well.
