Is Taylor Swift mediocre?
 

Is Taylor Swift mediocre? It is this phrase that I have been seeing quite often on the Internet lately. But I don't care about those who think so. Those who write this are just jealous of her. She is young, talented and beautiful. She has a large number of awards and achievements. She is worthy of love and admiration. And I treat her work with love and respect. And those who don't love her probably only love themselves! And we hope that she will continue to delight us with her songs!

If you're not a spambot this should be fun

I would leave these questions to the professionals, it's not been mathematically proven yet, and the historical merit shows that public discussions on such subjects rarely result in useful conclusions :)

is it possible that people love her image more than her sound or that they love the idea of her?

My age has allowed (forced?) me to see many hyped acts over the years. Something bigger is always around the corner.

It's not unusual for people to question if somebody 'deserves' to be as popular as they are. I try not to dwell on it, I just try to avoid it.

Good, bad and mediocre musicians are in the eye of the beholder--or is it ear of the beholder in this instance? I can only speak for myself. Ms. Swift is undeniably talented. But with the exception of a couple of songs (one of them, All Too Well, is really good--the extended version justifies its length), I don't find her work all that interesting. Then again, I'm too old to be in her "demographic", so I'm not the intended audience.

She's OK.

I like her

taylor got hitters homie, watch ya mouth

A poll appearing in the New York Post is, to put it mildly, less than convicncing.

The music always seemed utterly mediocre to me. The passions she provokes I'll never understand. But some of her fans I know IRL are very fine people.

Yeah, I wouldn't have posted it if it was a poll conducted by the New York Post but they credit the poll to 'Source: New York Times/Siena College'

I dont believe that


:pimp:

I don't like a lot about Taylor but ya gotta admit she can write a fine song sometimes, the early country stuff was the highlight of her career IMO.

Can't forget also that it's basically proven she used 4chan, maybe she sees this thread too :0

And there's no way in hell she's more disliked than Trump. Will not believe that obvious lie.

That being said I don't like how she's progressed the girlboss capitalism agenda. Sorry about it but her politics are extremely messy she's done a lot of good but a lot of bad as well and ignoring/silence on large issues has painted a bad picture of her for me.

But she has some good songs. Can't lie

She has some good songs, but overall, her music feels a bit mediocre to me, and I don’t quite understand why she has gained such a massive fanbase.
