Nov 29, 2012
Superstar Taylor Swift will be guest hosting American Top 40 on December 1 and 2!
As well as counting down the most popular songs of the week, the six-time Grammy winner will be answering fan questions and talking about her fourth studio album RED, which has sold close to 3 million albums already.
Taylor will also let us in on her holiday celebrations and upcoming tour, The RED Tour, which will headline 58 stadiums in 29 states and three provinces next year.
I must get answered by the Lord during the fan q&a session. She must recognize the Disciples' desperate need for the single treatment of the future smash "Treacherous".
6. Taylor Swift: Red
Taylor Swift's approach to lyric writing is exactly opposite Marcus Mumford's: She achieves a striking resonance with her following by honing in on very specific details and images, like the sight of an ex-boyfriend's dorky childhood photos. Swift's songs are unrepentantly confessional and never too cool — she's like a wise big sister to her younger fans and a relateable echo of youth to their mothers. It's really no wonder that she's already sold almost 3 million copies in the weeks since its release.
Swift knows she has a lot of people to please, and somehow manages to play to all of them with surprising consistency on Red. While there has been some mild backlash from the country community over the sheer poppiness of the album, Swift still nods to her country sensibilities from time to time, as with the gorgeous title track. She even manages to dabble with dubstep with some degree of grace (see: "I Knew You Were Trouble"), although ultimately she probably needn't have bothered — her career will far outlast that trend. Choice track: "All Too Well"
I need to try and get a question in or whatever. Gotta ask ha what the **** happened to that alt. country album she promised a few years back. and if she'll ever tour my state again.
