Anyway, I happen to like TS a lil bit. Her songs are kind-of repititous but who cares. She does happen to have some good lyrics for young girls to listen too compared to other country artist. So, pop that CD you bought into the player and listen to it one more time and I think you will find that I am right. Give her some credit cause she does have more money that you do!

She is a pop/tart-teenie bopper. She is also the most immature twenty something and it shows. Anyone who builds an entire career writing songs about people who dropped her, has some serious psychological issues and ZERO confidence. Who cares that she is a gazillionaire, she is annoying, under talented, irritating, but the last thing she is NOT A COUNTRY STAR. Just because her agent calls her one does NOT make it so. Writhing on the floor on stage and whipping her hair around is NOT a talent. And she should STOP using that awful, sickening fire engine red lipstick. Against her totally white skin, it is distracting and not an attractive color for her. Taylor ‘Not So” Swift is NOT a country star by any stretch of the imagination. She is a pop/tart-teenie bopper.

]]> Comment on Opinion: Coldplay — Mylo Xyloto review by Kyle http://www.albionpleiad.com/2011/11/opinion-coldplay-mylo-xyloto-review/#comment-983 Kyle Sun, 06 Nov 2011 15:04:28 +0000 http://www.albionpleiad.com/?p=5924#comment-983 As a longtime Coldplay fan, I would have to agree strongly with this review. While their sound has evolved throughout the years, I think that this album shows maturity in their songwriting. What I liked best about it, however, is that they stuck with Brian Eno as one of their producers, who I believe has brought out a lot of their potential, stringing out from albums like Parachutes or X&Y. If you ever get a chance, see them live--you'll never see them the same way. As a longtime Coldplay fan, I would have to agree strongly with this review.
