Taylor Swift, Taylor-Made,
With “Speak Now” Taylor Swift ups the singer/songwriter aspect of her art and turns down the radio-ready emphasis a notch. It is a little less calculated and a little more comfortable than her last two, especially 2008′s non-stop hit factory “Fearless.”
It is also less focused and tight, but since this is Swift’s debut effort without any co-writers, her melodies and lyrics composed independently, this was inevitable. The result is akin to comfort food – unpretentious, honest and warm. She has the natural talent and flair for catchy song craft to make a less precious recording – which “Speak Now” certainly is – work especially well.
Because Swift was clearly given more leeway to do as she pleases both her strengths and excesses are more prominently on display than previously. A few of her melodies sound simple and similar to one another, and she is often bursting with lyrics, with every other tune or so a bit overwritten. However, this is also one of the strengths of “Speak Now.” It shows that Swift is the real deal – an artist from whom strong songs flow naturally.
Much has been made of the men whom Swift has written songs about, and that transparency shows her age, but “Speak Now” proves she does not need the controversy to validate the music. From the inventive, shrewd, near power-pop of “The Story of Us” and “Enchanted” to the elegant, apologetic “Back to December,” these songs stand on their own.
Accents of country remain, but Swift is transitioning into pop/rock territory, and she cannot be blamed for it – at 20, she is, in spite of her major success, still finding her voice. “Mean” with its cheeky, smartly executed humor, is the only outright country tune.
“Someday I’ll be living in a big old city and all you’re ever gonna be is mean,” she forecasts.
Her eye for detail and sense of levity are prominent. In the classy, tuneful title song she paints the picture of a wedding – which she hopes to put a stop to – in delightful detail:
“…and she is yelling at a bridesmaid somewhere back inside her room wearing a gown shaped like a pastry.”
She also plays the role of big sister on “Innocent” and “Never Grow Up,” affectionate odes to the importance of childhood. The latter especially demonstrates her depth as she sings of the importance of love, family and innocence.
“But don’t make her drop you off around the block,” she affectionately sings to her younger listeners about their mothers. “Remember that she’s getting older too, and don’t lose the way that you dance around in your PJs getting ready for school.”
In an industry with plenty of flesh and flash and little substance, Taylor Swift remains refreshing and real, and “Speak Now” is just the right record for her to be releasing now – a collection of songs that proves the validity – and sincerity – of her still-burgeoning talent.

|Deluxe Edition Update: Taylor Takes the High Road,
I broke down and ponied up for the Deluxe Edition CD from the big red bullseye store just so I can answer some burning questions:
CD VS. DOWNLOAD – WINNER: CD!
Speak Now wins the prize for best CD packaging and booklet of the past decade (pricey box sets and reissues excluded). What you get: an embossed cover and an 18 page booklet filled with eye-popping color and some of the best photographs you’ll ever see of Taylor. She playfully creates scenes from the songs – the damsel in distress on the train tracks gets the most press, but Taylor breaking up the wedding is the most hysterical. Plus – you get the rare shot of Taylor with straight hair. 2 pages of liner notes written by Taylor, lyrics – and a stellar shot of Taylor and her full band. Plus, the CD wins for superior sound. This brings back memories of bringing home an album on vinyl and having hours of artwork to pour over while listening to the album over and over.
STANDARD EDITION VS. DELUXE – WINNER: DELUXE
I’m not a big fan of pricier deluxe editions. Why exclude people from some of the content? Wouldn’t it be better to encourage first-week sales by making all first-pressing CDs deluxe and then making it a collectible by taking it out of print. Afterward, making ALL the bonus tracks available for purchase online. But I digress – this is one of the most action-packed deluxe editions I’ve ever purchased. You get a different color dress on the cover; six bonus tracks (3 new songs, two acoustic versions and a remix). Of the new songs, Superman is a sure-fire radio hit. The others are simple and wonderful and would have fit in nicely on the album. The acoustic versions are nice but don’t stray too far from the originals and I’d be hard pressed to notice too much difference between the Mine remix and the original version (a Victor Calderone club banger remix it isn’t). As for the video content – who would think a half hour documentary about the making of a 3 minute video would be so captivating? It was one of the most enjoyable half hours of TV I’ve seen in years – despite the fact I thought the “enhanced CD” was a technology that died in the 90′s. Best parts of the docu: Taylor getting attacked by bugs, Taylor coaching kids to act and the local Maine townspeople all but shutting down the shoot. Wait til you see how Taylor saves the day in the row boat.
Original Review:
Would Taylor Swift be so universally adored if she wasn’t so adorable? Probably not. If you disagree, name one ugly pop star since the dawn of MTV – let alone CMT. Sure she’s no stranger to the occasional flat note of off-key chorus, but thanks to the miracle of studio-wizardry anyone from T-Pain to Britney Spears can have a hit record these days. What sets Taylor apart is she proved you don’t need to sell sex to sell records; you don’t need to be on major label to top the charts; you don’t need to be old to write songs that are universal tales about the human condition; you can be a role model without being a hypocrite or a prude; you can be a celebrity without being a train wreck – and most importantly for the sake of this review – you can pack 14 singles onto an album without a single dud. No filler here. This would have made a good soundtrack to summer, but we’ll have to settle for it warming our hearts and tapping our toes all winter long. Sure, the road she’s traveled in her 20 years is quite different from yours or mine, but the mark of a true artist is capturing snapshots of real life and presenting them in a way that is timeless, captivating and honest.

|Swift matures artistically, keeps same old charm.,
First of all, I will admit that I was not a big fan of Taylor Swift before I listened to this album. I would confess that she is a decent songwriter and a decent singer. My complaint was that she lacked originality.
However, her songs were always so damn catchy! Every once in a while, there would be a song or two from her that I just couldn’t get out of my head. This album made me respect her on a whole new level. Almost every song on here could be a radio hit, and the lyrics show incredible growth in maturity.
Many tracks are reminiscent of songs on her first two albums. “Mine” is particularly strong in it’s poppy, giddy goodness. Also, “Enchanted” is very unique and “Sparks Fly” has an irresistible chorus.
The most impressive tracks on the album, however, show signs of Swift’s maturing as an artist vocally and as a songwriter. “Dear John” and “Back to December” both bear ghosts of Swift’s love life and are hauntingly emotive. “Never Grow Up” is a gorgeous track that brings nostalgic feelings with it, and “Innocent” is deeply reflective and carries wisdom. Her words are carefully chosen.
The album is not perfect however. Some of the weaker tracks, such as “Mean”, “Speak Now”, and “Long Live” show a lack of artistic ingenuity that Swift has worked so hard to develop on this album.
Overall, “Speak Now” is a CD that won’t leave your iPod for a long time. You’ll be humming the tracks in your sleep. Bravo! Color me impressed.
5/5 Stars, and probably the best album I’ve heard this year.
