What songs from Taylor's first album sound like 'Dear John', 'Never Grow Up', 'Haunted', 'Long Live', 'Speak Now', 'Back To December' etc.? What songs from Taylor's first album deal with the same themes as 'Back To December', 'Better Than Revenge', 'Innocent', 'Never Grow Up', 'Long Live', 'Mean' etc.?

Even when Britney was in her prime she wasn't that talented. She's always lacked a lot of talent so it's crazy when people are saying britney is more talented.
Taylor is obviously more talented.

In fact, if they did know about Britney - they would have never created this lopsided discussion that leans heavily in Britney's favor in the first place.
Britney doesn't just have her dancing, she also choreographs....she also writes and composes some of her songs. She, too, can play the piano - one of her piano melodies is the hook to "Everytime."
She came up with the concepts to her best videos -- BOMT, Toxic, Everytime, Womanizer, Circus, Criminal....not to mention directing "Do Somethin'"
Britney is a critically acclaimed actress after wildly popular guest star appearances on "Will and Grace" and "How I Met Your Mother."
Taylor's only talent is ****ing her way through the Jonas Brothers, the Glee cast, the cast of Twilight, Jake Gyllenhaal and more. And singing different variations of the songs she sang as a 17 year old. |

Believe me, I knew all these things about Britney. She's very talented.
Unfortunately your last paragraph is obvious trolling with no basis in fact or reality.

The irony of you calling out people who use the "you know know nothing about Taylor Swift" and then proving that you don't seem to know anything about her yourself.

Ha. Ha. At least Britney experiments with her music. Taylor's music has no growth at all.

Taylor can play musical instruments and write songs. But so can Britney.
Taylor can sing live but not very well, and also, her performances are boring.
Britney is not that great of a vocalist but at least she knows that and doesn't try too hard to make a fool out of herself unlike Taylor. And truth be told, Britney's dancing skills may not be as sharp as they were before but she's still better than most pop girls who try to dance.
What can Taylor do? Write songs and play musical instruments. (And don't give me that sing live crap. Everyone can do it, just not as well as Gaga, Beyonce and Adele. Singing live is irrelevant if you suck at it.  )
What can Britney do? Dance, write songs, act, play the piano and serve performances that aren't boring. I'm sure there's more but you know what I mean.
Both are talented but Britney > the other girl.

First of all , The Speak Now tour sold 1,700,000 tickets WW .
How the heck is she boring??
Have you seen her perform on tour? award shows?
Just because she performs acoustically sometimes , doesn't mean she's boring . 
And seriously ? Can Britney write a song like Last Kiss or Dear John ? can she perform with wearing more than two pieces or clothes ??
Taylor's voice >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Britney's voice
Studio wise AND Live wise .

So much ignorance in this post alone, I think I gotta leave this thread now.

Eagerly awaiting your reply, Captain!
So many people here seem so confident to criticise Taylor's music using broad, sweeping statements but when actually challenged on those statements people rarely seem to be able to formulate replies and instead just don't bother.

I was mainly talking about the singles she's released.
Love story, you belong with me, fifteen, mine, tear-drops on my guitar, our song, etc they're all the same practically. The songs she releases are either about love or just plain immature (like mean). My main point was that she never truly steps outside the box and releases something different.

I already called Taylor talented in my first post - however, Britney is more diverse in her talents. I don't see Taylor being good in anything outside of country music.

Katy Perry is successfully singing about teenage romances at 27 and Faith Hill was successfully singing about fairytales in her 30s/ 40s, so I don't really see your point...

You mean Britney's PRODUCERS experimented with music i guess?
And TBH, let's not act as if Britney's music is THAT versatile either. The majority of her discography is just dance music: In The Zone, Blackout, Circus, Femme Fatale,...
