Album:1989 Taylor Swift (Deluxe Edition)

Release Date: October 27, 2014. Big Machine Records. Executive Producers: MAX Martin & Taylor Swift

5 Reasons I'm Loving Taylor Swift's New Album, 1989:

1. In typical hit-maker fashion, every track on the album can be a single! 

2. This album is not just a collection of songs, but reveals an array of emotions and intentions; love, fear, happiness, flirtatiousness, playfulness, regret, doubt, insecurities, certainties and fun, fun, fun.... It's an emotional roller-coaster, but a ride worth taking!

3. There are songs that will surprise you! A few songs on this album, may not sound like Taylor Swift from her past albums, but they are just as good. It might be in the slightest of ways, but she still continues to reveal for us another dimension to these notions of love & relationships, she is best known to sing about. She has ballads that are softer, more gentle in sound yet stronger in its words and content, than before. She has songs that are edgier in its production and deeper in meaning and concept, than we have heard before. Isn't that what any innovative artist would want? A constant revelation in their maturity, reflected through their music. 

4. In classic Taylor Swift songwriting style, her lyrics significantly matter! They always seem to tell a vivid, cohesive & intricately woven yet relatable sequence of events. There is a story line and her stories are intriguing!

5. Taylor Swift songs will keep you guessing, wondering and deeply engaged in figuring out which boy(s) she's singing about... this time. 

Reasons Why The Deluxe Edition is Worth It: 

1. Three of the best songs on this album are the Bonus Tracks: Wonderland, You Are In Love & New Romantics. After listening to the Deluxe Edition of this album, the regular version almost seems incomplete without the Bonus Tracks. I can hardly imagine the album without them. They are on repeat in my audio player!

2. There are three songwriting voice memos. If you are a songwriter yourself, an artist of any genre or simply a huge fan of her music, you will love listening to Taylor share a glimpse of the creative process that goes into the compositional structure and writing of her songs. They are more than songs, but playbacks of a time before the completion of a song, if anything, it is a playback of the beginning, the fruition of what was to become of an idea and a sound that will eventually turn into a record on this album. It is often an unseen side of an artist, the songwriter, the individual as her authentic, raw self behind & before the music. 

3. Everyone loves visuals and photographs. Within the Deluxe Edition, you get a handful of Polaroid-like copies of Taylor behind the scenes. They replicate the style, look and colors of a Polaroid film. These images are beautiful, visually, aesthetically & in the manner that they give insight to what feels like intimate moments in this pop icon's world. So, if you are a fan of Taylor Swift, you might not want to miss out on these images & their original captions, as written by Taylor herself...
