Intervju med CMT Insider
CMT Insider har gjort en intervju med Taylor om framför allt Speak Now men även lite om mode, paparazzi och hur hon planerar att spendera sin 21-årsdag (som är sex dagar ifrån!)
With sales already in the vicinity of 2 million copies, Taylor Swift's Speak Now has fulfilled its promise as one of the best-selling albums of 2010, an especially remarkable accomplishment considering it was only released in late October.
Prior to the media attention she's been receiving lately about her relationship with actor Jake Gyllenhaal, Swift talked to CMT Insider host Katie Cook about her new songs, how she plans to celebrate her 21st birthday on Dec. 13 and the "incredible adventure" her career is providing.
CMT: Obviously you've matured a lot in the last couple years. Do you feel like that's reflected on Speak Now?
Swift: I hope so. I think, for me, musical evolution as well as growing up should be something that happens naturally. I've never felt the need to have some proclamation that I'm now an adult or anything like that. You know, I guess you're technically an adult when you're 18, but I was looking around going, "When's it gonna happen?" I think that growing up has to happen at your own pace, and maturing happens through a series of realizations and lessons and life happening to you and you dealing with it.
A lot of your fans are still teenagers, some of them even preteens, so do you ever think, "I hope they can still relate to what I'm writing about"?
When I'm in a room by myself writing a song, which is the scenario that happened for each of the songs on this album because there weren't any co-writers, it's not about factoring in millions of people who could possibly hear that song some day, because that would be a very crowded room. But in my head and in that room, I try to kind of conjure up the idea of the person who I'm writing that song about. I'm writing that song to them. That's how I've always written music. I used to worry that would be too personal, that by writing songs directly to someone who's in or out of my life, other people wouldn't be able to relate to it. But then I put the music out into the world and it somehow worked out that they were able to relate it to their lives, too.
As you said, you wrote all the songs on this album by yourself. Was that a conscious decision?
That was another natural progression, which is what I love about this album. A lot of it just sort of happened. There was a flow that just kind of happened. I would get inspired to write songs at the most inconvenient times, 3 in the morning or in the middle of a meet-and-greet or in the middle of a conversation with my friends, and I'd just drift off. And they're like, "Oh, you're working again, aren't you?"
