I'm not afraid to admit that I hate country. I know a LOT of people who do like it - the old country, the new stuff, the pop country, etc. Ever since Shania Twain and Miley's dad "crossed over" into the pop world with their feel-like-a-woman-achy-breaky-hearts, I've hated country. Fast forward to this generation of pop country stars. Carrie Underwood, Lady Antebellum and the country pop princess herself, Taylor Swift, have disturbed my top-40 listening pleasure lately. Not that there aren't terrible top-40 songs out there (just wait) or artists. And I know that everyone has their opinion, and this is just mine, but Taylor Swift drives me INSANE. I don't like her voice, I don't like her songs, I don't like her videos, I don't like her. I think she writes perfect songs for the 16 year old that she is. I think she has terrific people promoting the sh*t out of her and her music and - poof - a pop star. Her lyrics drive me crazy. Her teen love angst is overrated. Yes, everyone feels like that sometimes, but then I turned 18 and actually realized that *everyone* feels like that and I wasn't a leper and moved on. I turn the channel (tv or otherwise) when she's on. Bleck. There. Least favorite song? Of Taylor's there are so many to choose from.
Now, listen, before you start coming down on me, this is MY opinion. If you want to do this challenge and pick a Taylor Swift song for EVERY SINGLE CHOICE - have at it. I won't b*tch about your opinions. Don't b*tch about mine. Kthxbye.
