How about singing about something other than love and breakups?
And don't tell me that that's the only kind of song that can get big in this day and age. You know what the current #2 song in the country is about?
Being afraid of the dark.
And if she
is going to sing about a breakup, couldn't she write about it in a way that's a little more... you know... not juvenile and shallow.
To use a recent example, take Frank Ocean's 'Bad Religion', an absolutely heart-wrenching song about unrequited love. He compares the object of his affection to a God, an intangible figure that he'll desperately try to please despite getting nothing in return.
That is powerful. Why can't Taylor write something like that?
