But really, all songs were made equal on that album. Any song could've been a single.

I wouldve done
1. Love Story
2. You're Not Sorry
3. Fearless
4. You Belong with me
5. Breathe

I look forward to it!

You're Not Sorry should've been a single. Forever & Always should've been a single.
Fifteen should not have been a single.

It's funny you should say that... I just tweeted a few minutes ago that 3 of Taylor's ex's have started growing awful beards since breaking up with her...

We all know Taylor was just their beards. Once she left they needed to grow a literal beard

The album should've just been named "Dear John."

-Dear John, Story of Us, Superman all definitely about him.
-Sparks Fly, Innocent, Ours possibly about him.
-Haunted could even possibly be about him, athough I think that's Joe.

And then there's Last Kiss, Better Than Revenge, possibly Haunted and possibly If This Was A Movie about Joe.

I've read this before, approx 4 months ago. But you were talking about it earlier today and I thought I'd share it here.

I was speechless after reading it and I have appreciated the song even more.

Okay so I was rereading Kanye West’s Twitter apology last night and all of a sudden I realized that there were incredible similarities between what he said and lyrics in Innocent.

Kanye posted his Tweets on September 3rd, 2010; Taylor Swift performed Innocent on the VMA’s on September 12th, 2010 - so the possibility that she wrote this song after reading his apology is slim but it still exists - 8 days is plenty of time to write a song.

“…A 32 year old child. I woke up from the crazy nightmare, and I looked in the mirror and said GROW UP KANYE.” Kanye West.
“32, and still growing up now.”

“I’ve been straying from this subject…” Kanye West.
“Did some things you can’t speak of.”

“People booed when I got on stage.” Kanye West.
“It’s okay, life is a tough crowd.”

“I watched Justin Timberlake on the Grammies lose every televised award including album of the year which went to the Dixie Chicks. I would have ran on stage for Justin that night because Sexy Back (in my mind) was that important…” Kanye West
“I guess you really did it this time.”

“This is only TV…not the war.” Kanye West
”..left yourself in your war path.”

“The media tried to demonize me. They wanted yall to believe I was a monster in real life so you guys wouldn’t listen or buy my music anymore. I feel like they were waiting for the opportunity to go in all the way on me and when it came they beat me to a pulp.” Kanye West.
“Wasn’t it beautiful when you believed in every thing? And everybody believed in you?”

(personally I thought this was always more about Taylor herself; you know in the sense that when she was younger she thought everyone was on her side and then all of a sudden up came Kanye West who obviously didn’t believe in her but it could go both ways)

“Wasn’t it beautiful? Running wild until you fell asleep, before the monsters caught up to you.”

“How deep is the scar… I bled hard.. cancelled tour with the number one pop star in the world … closed the doors of my clothing office. Had to let employees go… for the first time I felt the impact of my brash actions … I felt the recession from an ownership side.” Kanye West.
“You wouldn’t be shattered on the floor now if only you had seen what you know now then.”

“There are people who don’t dislike me… they absolutely hate me! I was chilling with this white girl having a conversation and she cut me off and said… Hold up… I thought you didn’t like us?! That’s when you realize perception is reality.
I have a mission in life to bring truth and beauty through my music and the visuals that anchor around it. The media has successfully diminished the “receptive” audience of (3rd person)… KANYE WEST…taking a 15 second blip the mdeia have successfully painted the image of the “ANGRY BLACK MAN’ The King Kong theory. I’m the guy who at one point could perform the Justin Timberlake on stage and everyone would be sooo happy that I was there. People tweeted that they wish I was dead… No listen. They wanted me to die people. I carry that. I smile and take pictures through that. I wear my scars…” Kanye West.
“Your string of lights is still bright to me.”

(this one you kind of have to think about. Everyone turned against Kanye - where he was once lauded when he got on stage, now he was booed by people in the audience. To get melodramatic it seemed like he was dimming. But Taylor is saying that he’s still bright to her.)

“With the help of strong will, a lack of impathy, a lil alcohol and extremely distasteful & bad timing … I became George Bush over night.” Kanye West.
“Lives change like the weather.”

A lot of it isn’t concrete obviously but if you really sit and read the whole entire thing he said and then go back and forth to the Innocent lyrics, it’s almost like she’s having a conversation with him and kind of recanting everything he says, trying to almost console him. If she did read this and if she did write the song after reading it, I think it would be really beautiful.
What’s most beautiful about it NOW is how she says “it’s all right, just wait and see” and “today is never too late to be brand new” and “lost your balance on a tight rope, it’s never too late to get it back” because it almost predicted what’s happening now - Kanye was hated for a long time by a ton of people and now he’s back to #1
