Review: In her album The Tortured Poets Department, the seemingly universally adored Taylor Swift masterfully delves into real depths of emotion with plenty of her trademark raw vulnerability. Each track is an exploration of love, loss, and self-discovery, which up to now has always resonated deeply with her fan base. Swift's lyrical prowess shines as she navigates themes of heartbreak and resilience, accompanied by rich melodies that tug at the heartstrings. The album is a fine document of the complexities of human experience that showcasesSwift's evolution as both a songwriter and storyteller. The Tortured Poets Department is another album that solidifies Swift's place as one of music's most compelling voices.

Review: '1989 (Taylor's Version)' sees global pop icon Taylor Swift revisiting one of her many masterpieces with a newfound maturity and depth. Swift's 2023 reimagining of her 2014 album breathes fresh life into iconic tracks like 'Shake It Off' and 'Blank Space,' while also introducing previously unreleased material like 'The Lakes.' With Taylor's trademark introspection and emotional resonance, each song feels like a rediscovery, resonating with both nostalgia and contemporary relevance. The album serves as a testament to Swift's enduring talent and artistic growth that she can re-captivate listeners with fresh infectious hooks, irresistible beats, and poignant storytelling and in doing so once again reaffirms her status as a modern music icon.

Review: The seventh studio album by pop princess Taylor Swift, Lover was released in 2019 and saw to such unavoidable hits as 'Me!', 'You Need To Calm Down', 'Lover' and 'The Man'. Responding to much fan demand after a series of mental health troubles in the fallout of her prior album Reputation, Lover is a more sincere and earnest approach to the Swift formula, paring back the edgy histrionics heard on the prior album in favour of a maturer version of the pastel-hued nostalgia evocative of an earlier Swift era. As a wise man once said: true love is giving something you don't have to a person who doesn't want it; with Swift seeming to hold this bittersweet but ultimately redemptive adage firmly at heart, the album cycles through all the vagaries of both false and true love: infatuation, commitment, lust, heartache.

Review: In the continuing re-recording process for Pennsylvanian singer-songwriter, Billboard artist of the decade, and international sensation Taylor Swift, '1989' is the latest on the hit list of masters Swift is reclaiming - and arguably the most important. 'Blank Space', 'Shake it Off', 'Style', 'Bad Blood'...these are just four of the 16 songs that unquestionably cemented Swift's status as an eternal icon. Her previous, fourth album 'Red' - the first to be re-recorded - may have been her true breakthrough into charting pop, but '1989' is easily what has catapulted her to the level she is at today. Not only does the original music have so much weight behind it, but so does this brand new package: Brand new alternate art front and back covers, two gorgeous tangerine discs, never before seen photos on the album sleeves and - most importantly - FIVE unreleased songs from Swift's presumably unending vault of shelved tracks.

Review: One of the most important pop albums of the last decade, responsible for shaping radio pop for many years to come, '1989' is a well-beloved part of the Taylor Swift canon. Deservedly so, featuring some of the most important hits, not just of the discography of America's sweetheart, but of the century. 'Shake It Off' and 'Bad Blood' were playing on every speaker around the world at one time, letting the world know exactly the grip Swift had, and would continue to have to this day, on the music industry. Now updated with never-before-seen alternate art and images, TS is continuing full steam ahead with the re-recordings of her iconic catalogue, reclaiming her masters for herself and giving her old tracks a new lease of life as well as including 5 previously unreleased tracks from the vault. No modern Taylor release would be complete without multiple coloured vinyl variants, the sky hue of the vinyl reflecting the vast blueness beyond the smiling 33-year-old as birds freely fly overhead. It's a far cry from the candid, faceless polaroid that the original record donned; A defiant image of freeness from the shackles of her past.

Notes: As boundless a pop-star and all-round celebrity as they come, Taylor Swift has the additional string to her bow- unlike so many of her alleged contemporaries - of being hugely talented in so many fields.

Not merely a song-and-dance girl, Taylor remains a first-rate composer, an accomplished musician, and a performer of staggering intensity that were she not so current, one might exclaim "they don't make 'em like her anymore".

This documentary DVD features more than 90 minutes of filmed interviews with Taylor Swift, recorded throughout the years when the girl was from Pennsylvania, who grew up on a Christmas tree farm, was first making her mark on the industry she now virtually dominates.

Proving herself to be supremely intelligent, incredibly knowledgeable and wholly loveable, Miss Americana is also the proud owner of a unique sense of humour, a feature sadly lacking in so many others from a similar background.
