Are You a Swifty?

She’s amazingly talented. She plays piano and guitar. She writes most if not all her music and she can sing. But having said that, I listen to mostly Jazz, Classic Rock and some Classical, so I won’t be buying any of her music.

Though I haven’t bought any of her products. I do like her music. My niece went to one of her concerts and was out of her mind with praise about how good and interactive it was, as well as legitimately lasting 3 hours. I do sometimes listen to her music on Qobuz, seems well produced and she sure can sing and dance. If I had the chance I’d go see her in concert

One thing she does is give away a lot of money to worthwhile charities AND gave all her truck drivers a $100k bonus last year!

A sometimes overlooked aspect of the Swift phenomenon. She is becoming a powerful political influence. She is on video talking passionately about her views and stating she wants to be on the “right side of history “. Just like so many women whose power is dismissed, her followers are very impactful despite being ignored as a political force.

Don't listen to her music but ton of respect. Same things were said about Sinatra, Elvis, the Beatles, etc. 

And why can't she have a political opinion and share her views? Like saying an audiophile should stay in their lane and not engage civically.  By God Joni and Dylan have shared countless times.
