Im 55. A year ago i couldnt name a single song she sang. But i gave her an honest chance. Now i can sing the entire 10mins of All Too Well. Her music is way better than i was expecting.

[@jimward204]

I'm 73 and first listened...really listened...to Folklore at the beginning of the Pandemic. I was hooked and never looked back. She is truly amazing!

[@Atom63-f3y]

Me too..61 and a rocker from the 70/80’s…..now the only music I listen to , walk to and work out to…puts me a great headspace and mood everyday👍🏻

[@PeterSedesse]

@@Atom63-f3y Isn't it great, that according to the 'experts' we are all just teenage girls :)

[@IamMrsMega]

Saaame, I decided to give her a real chance last year and started listening just to understand what's the hype about and now I know All too well the 10min version by heart

Love Taylor! She’s an amazing person & astounding business person. Her music inspires and comforts.

[@tommanley2924]

She's part of the CLUB, we are not even invited.

[@shirleytamburano6256]

She's been in the Guiness Book 118 times. So far. Give her a minute.

[@balorclub3774]

The best thing is that all of it she has done without any vulgarity in her music and videos. She is an epitome of awesomeness.

[@ExtreMe-uk4lm]

Exactly.

[@juliettumang4852]

yes! don’t sexualized herself! always wholesome, relatable!!!!❤

[@bedlams]

Taylor Swift's music inspires me and puts me in a better mood. She is also a wonderful woman, not greedy, kind, donates money to those who need help. She is also a person of great influence, and I am happy to live in the same historical period with her. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

I love her so much

[@skylargreen7156]

I'm two years older than Taylor Swift I can say I've watched her career grow over the years from country ballad singer to pop superstar without being a fan of the artist I admire her the way she pursued her career even more so when she had trouble with her former record label and bounced back with her head held high. This woman is an accomplished artist who has managed to invite several generations of fans into her world (my neighbor who is 43 years old is a fan of the singer) besides that I like some of her songs.

You guys are spinning on it

[@annekern2829]

You left out the other part of the survey that found 18% would vote for the person she endorsed, 17% would actually vote against the person she endorsed. Not that I am a Trump fan (RFK, Jr. for me), but your simplistic comment of Donald Trump being “scared of her) implies a lack of knowledge about politics.

[@Ffakefriends]

Taylor swifts dad and family have been in head positions of the bank of America for generations. Her dad now is... Quote... Scott relocated his company to Nashville, where he works as a top adviser and First Vice President. her farther is a descendant of 3 generations of bank presidents. (Bank of America) When graham Norton said Taylor owns all of the cash, he wasn't kidding!! Which means they are at the head of the lobbing groups in America, she has been a plot from day dot and you all call them swiftys, she has a massive influence on people and politics. While they roll in cash people starve for food..

[@AroundTheWorldWithEase]

I thought Napster ruined the music business. So how is she a billionaire?

People are actually buy a physical copy of the albums. And well ticket sales to the concerts...

[@emptylikebox]

that proves a lot of you are gullible. you're the one who made her a billionaire, while most of her fans are struggling to make ends meets. let that sink in. so don't boast about that.

[@tannenbaumgirl3100]

That's a lie, FoxNews never said she should stick to housekeeping....all everyone wants is for her to perform her own civic duty and vote, and allow the rest of America to vote by their concience as well, and not what Taylor Swifts tells them to do. Now mind you, I am Swiftie, attended all of concerts, and my grand children grew with her. So stop trying to divide Taylor's Fan based...you are out of line and speaking untruths!

[@shelleynowwilson]

Anyone with half a brain should stand up to that sociopathic narcissist..

[@FiendishBeret]

"which is just LIKE telling a woman to stick to the kitchen" that @tannenbaumgirl3100 is what we in the English language call a simile. A simile uses like or as to compare something to something else therefore it is in fact not an "untruth" as you say therefore it is not a "lie" bear in mind that the speaker is just essentially trying to emphasise the fact that she is being told to keep out of politics. Should you have any questions don't be afraid to ask because you are just wrong :)

[@zintaro3451]

Sorry what did op say? I stopped reading after Fox News.

[@tannenbaumgirl3100]

@@zintaro3451 Insinuated that FoxNews said she should keep to housekeeping women are born to do. Fox News never said that!

Such an influence and yet not able to call for end to the horror that’s happening in that place we’re not allowed to mention

[@MrsRosencranz1]

You might want to reference the Smother Brothers. Find out what political activism did to them. They had no influence on the course of the war despite their constant callouts. They did the right thing and paid a dear price. They proved that government policy is determined by the gov. not callouts by entertainers.

[@TaylorSwiftupdate]

why r u all even voting for politicians when u need a pop star to talk about matter they don't have any things to do their job is to make music and politicians job is to work for country and take care of their people go cry at their home
