{#emotions_dlg.blink}{#emotions_dlg.crying} I couldn't listen to the entire track, it was so terrible. The girl can't sing. {#emotions_dlg.sad}

The song isn't a ballad. Her voice was fine and her inflections fit the lyrics.

Its the same type of hate directed @ Kim Kardashian. No reason why.

These celebrities have a facade. Just like Taylor Swift is 'randier' than her innocent facade, Kim Kardashian is more innocent than her 'se.xy' facade.

It's a classic case of "What's good for the goose, is good for the gander" analogy.

Big difference btw Kardashians and TS is that Taylor Swift actually has talent.

To my trained ear, she cannot sing. However, I respect your opinion. I simply do not agree with it.

And just because someone doesn't consider her talented does not mean they "hate" her. People all have different tastes in music and singers. Not everyone will agree but that doesn't mean they actually "hate" someone.

I thought her song ""Red"" was very good and pretty amazing that she wrote it all by herself.

I understand why they picked Taylor Swift, she's popular now, and seems like a lovely young lady. I also understand why native New Yorkers would be upset about her being picked to represent their city. I do feel that it's inappropriate for the public to attack her for it, find out who picked her and protest to them.
