Why is Taylor Swift so popular?Taylor Swift is popular largely because she makes conventional music. Making a conventional sound lowers the risk of alienating listeners. Like Ed Sheeran and others, when listening to her, you can routinely expect an agreeable sound that is designed for top-chart contention. You are yet to be lyrically, topically, or creatively challenged by Taylor Swift.What makes her different from other female singers in her age group, like Katy Perry, Ariana Grande, and Selena Gomez?I don’t think of Swift as radically different from the three but she is different in that she legitimately has a background as a songwriter.She’s not some mind-bending wordsmith but a hallmark of her records is her lyrical style. When listening to Swift, it’s evident that she draws from real life experiences. Therefore it’s easier for a listener to latch onto her music on a personal level.Contrast with Perry, Grande, and Gomez. Their lyrics seemed very corporate-created, formulaic, and mostly detached from any real-life inspiration. With them, its like lyrics are there just because it’s necessary to make a song.She appears to have more of following than them. Why?I kind of liken it to someone like Adele, Eminem, Drake, and even 21 Pilots. With each, a bulk of their audience relate to them on a personal level because their lyrics appear to draw from actual inspiration and real life experiences. Swift’s lyrics, for the most part, aren’t programmatic. They’re not just pumped out of the Music Industry Machine. They ostensibly come from a genuine place.And in comparison, her music is more friendly and catchy. Katy Perry, Selena Gomez, and Ariana Grande all make somewhat mature songs related to female sexuality. Songs about seduction, sensuality, and intimacy is more likely to divert listeners than very innocent, saccharine songs about romance and heartbreak.How can she sell so many albums in the U.S.?The reason is largely for what I said before. Making safe music increases the likelihood of mainstream appeal, and her lyrics have a degree of conviction, which add to the appeal.What do you think?
Who is a celebrity, that is commonly thought to be attractive, but you find unattractive?
Oh gosh….This is quite a list.Taylor HillShe looks ordinary to me and she looks like an average girl from a particular ethnic group in my country except for she is super tall. i find it surprising that she is a VS angel and even more i cant stand her in HF.Bella HadidI think she looks like a white version of someone from Middle East. (No offence to Middle Easterns,plz).Nothing charming and unique to be in HF. ( phew)Benedict CumberbatchI like him on The Sherlock and Doctor Strange, however in terms of attractiveness i would not prefer him.The Kardashians/JennerI find them extremely obnoxious. I can tolerate Kendell but not the rest of the clan. I wonder how anyone would find this kim’s butt attractive and also i (like) but am not so fond of Ryan Seacrest for “Keeping up with the Kardashians”.Gross!!Harry StylesThis is funny coz Harry looks like one of my cousins so of course he is just average to me.Paris HiltonIf she hasnt been super rich she wouldnt have make it in Hollywood.Adam LevineHe is recognized as one of the sexiest men but i dont find him sexy or attractive at all. Also i find something odd while he sings. I loved it when Behati was with Jamie Stratchen.Sarah Jessica ParkerI like her show Sex and the City but Sarah Jessica Parker ?? HELL NO…Edit : I’m gonna hafta add Jason Momoa.Jason MomoaI see ladies going gaga over him and posting thirst comments on his pics on instagram which i find very surprising coz not in any way or not from any angle do i find this man or the pic right above attractive at all. I wont be more harsh but jason sure isnt goodlooking or charming at all, at least to me.
