“Beautiful, heart felt, easy listening. ”

In this debut album Swift breaches the gap between country and mainstream music in a beautifully personal way. Each song is catchy, beautifully written and fantastically performed. While it can be said that the album is samey as some of the songs have similar instrumentals, i feel that the quality of the lyrics and clear personal bond that the singer has with each song makes up for this. It isn't often that you find such a natural voice, simple beauty and talent all rolled up into one artist but "Fearless" displays all of Taylor swifts attributes. "Fearless" is a breath of fresh air in an industry obsessed with sexualisation and gimmicky lyrics sang by girls dancing around in next to nothing. The songs "The way I loved you" and "Hey Stephen" are in my personal opinion, particularly well performed and enjoyable to listen to despite them being lesser known than tracks such as "Love story" which i personally do not feel showcases Swifts natural talent.
