Country princess goes pop and it's sweet as ever!!
Am sure most of my friends who know me will know that I won't write even a single negative word about her and they are damn right on this one. And yes, after the record breaking 'Red Tour', Taylor Swift is back and she doesn't disappoint, the song is called 'Shake it off' which she co-wrote with Max Martin and Shellback who were behind her #1 hit 'We are never ever getting back together', '22' and 'I knew you were trouble' from her last album. The song is released as the lead single from her upcoming album aptly titled '1989' (her birth year) and it has all the ingredients to be a big hit once again for her, it channels 'Mean' and she sings about people who can't stop saying bad things about her.
Taylor Swift is pulling a Beyonce on this one, she gave us 2 hints on her Instagram account about the release of this song and announced it via Yahoo! live stream and premiere the video on sunday night. The song is produced by her co-writers, it is not really her signature sound but she herself stated that '1989' will be her first documented official pop album and it is clear that she is moving towards the pop direction. She sings about the haters and critics who found everything wrong about her, what they say about her and she expresses what she really feels, she states that there is music in her heart that everything will be alright so she shake it off. Taylor's vocals sounds better than ever, we can sense that it has grown a lot from the Tim McGraw days, she also rap on the hook which I called her best friend and my idol, the Ed Sheeran effect. It is a pop song that will be big in the radio,every kid across the world will love it, it will be in everyone's lip especially after she performs it this Sunday at the VMA's.
The video showed Taylor in different avatars, she recruited her musicians, dancers and her very own swifties, it is a refreshing video and we see a different side of her. It has its criticism that she is a racist in this video which she can just shake, shake , shake it off and we all know she is not even close to being a racist. I just can't wait for the full album when it gets released on October 27, 2014 and billboard has reported the song is likely to debut at #1 next week with a record breaking sales. I've said this before and will say it again, it's good to be a #swiftie
