I'm starting to agree with everyone who think Taylor is overrated. After the Kanye thing and the Fearless Era, girlfriend has been in our face nonstop! I thought what Kanye did was rude….BUT IT WAS SO TRUE!!

Not only that but she sings about the SAME things all the time. Past boyfriends, breaking up, and just boys in general. It's like, "DAMN!!! How many boyfriends did you have?!".

I do like her songs and I won't hesitate to belt out one of her songs, but Taylor Swift needs to STFU and GTFO.

music today has gone down the drain. at least taylor swift writes her own songs. beyonce sings mainstream songs with catchy tunes that she can't even relate to. single ladies? what does she know, she's been with jay z for a while now. taylor swift's love life has been a roller coaster, and we have all seen that in the tabloids and so we know the songs she writes are genuine and relatable. she won the award because she's all in all different. her video told a story that her fans related to. beyonce's video showed that she's a kickass dancer, with an even more kickass voice, and that she can learn choreography from someone else and sing a song she doesn't relate to. taylor swift isn't perfect, but she deserved that award. if anyone's run-of-the-mill, it's beyonce. especially recently. leave the lady gaga stuff to lady gaga.

I'm a Taylor fan,so i'm not gonna rain on your parade and start disrepecting because I don't do that. But we're her fans for a reason; we love what she writes about(sue us[T Swift fans]). We all have different taste and lets face it, she wins those awards because they're fan voted and she oviously is very loved. And her voice,well it's not the best but that doesn't matter. When you love an artist it's because you can relate to them and thats how many of us feel. Oh and by the way i will also defend her by saying that she is not fake at all. Not like those 20 something year old's being so scandalous just to be in the spotlight. If some people disagree i don't know what the wrold has come to. Oh and by the way many of her fans go from 12 and up.. not 16. I'm 22 by the way but i still love her cute girly songs. It'd be good if she wrote about other stuff but she's still has a long way to go.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! Thank you for posting this.

Couldn't have said it better. I used to love Taylor Swift, and she has offered a lot of new stuff to the stands, but she is overrated to hell and beyond. Her vocals aren't anything to be shouting Hallelujah to the skies about. Her songs may be relatable to teenage girls, and because they're mostly about unrequited love or breaking up, obviously that is going to be the case especially in a high school standpoint. She's a role model to kids. She doesn't do drugs, smoke, wear flashy clothes or excessive makeup (usually). I get all that. But what about the actual MUSIC?

And those awards? I find her undeserving. Just because I believe those other artists are more talented than her. She beat MJ? Hocum.

even if she is overrated i still love her to death she's my favorite singer! i'll tell you what's so "effing great" about her it's because she's just taylor swift i mean without her the awards would be going to some other artist anyway … i mean do you really think that people like celine dion and miley cyrus have more fans than her? and people love her because of everything you said at the beginning
even if you're the best singer on earth but you do drugs and act like a complete douchebag I ASSURE YOU that nobody's gonna vote for your ass anyway so why not let the sweet darling down to earth girl win? it's not like beyonce hasn't ever won a fucking award

Completely agree! Taylor Swift seems like shes a lovely girl… but can she sing about anything besides love, crushes, and getting hurt? Someone needs to tell this girl there is more to life than boys boys boys boys. When you're 15, yeah, I can see your life being about boys. But shes not a kid anymore… bring some more substance into your music!

There really isn't a reason that Taylor Swift, or pretty any other pop star for that matter to be popular. None of them have a clue what music is, but that's because the are entertainers. Her lyrics are whining dramatizations of how it is to grow up as a highschool girl in white collar america. There isn't that much drama, there are not that many problems, grow the fuck up.

I agree with this article. LOL. Still, she is not, and certainly won't be the last, over-hyped musical artist. Its ALL through out the entertainment biz. I am constantly saying, "WTF" when I see these actors, actresses, muscians, etc. raised up for NO particular reasons, and yeah, I go check them out to see what the hype is about, and then after my initial disappointment from wasted money (recession) I am again like "WTF." I went to a Taylor Swift concert, and I was thinking the entire time, "What would happen if she just sung up there with just her voice and the guitar." Fill in the blank people. I have been to concerts where real singers have done this and left me breathless. Now THAT is a real singer.
