Well worth the extra $$$September 1, 2010 paperclipmouse I purchased the original Fearless album when it was first released,so I had already heard the songs on the CD.Once the Platinum Edition was released,I purchased it and it came with extra songs and DVD content.It was well worth the money to purchase this album again especially if you are a die-hard fan of Taylor Swift as I am!
Just as promisedAugust 28, 2010 Eva Marie Bourget I was so amazed to see how quickly I received this CD. Great Shipping and wonderful seller.
solid catch songs, but is it really Country music?August 27, 2010 O. Rios(Texas) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
That is the question that many hard core Country music purists often pose.
Taylor Swift is a beautiful girl, and her #1 song "You belong to me" not only was one of the best songs in Country Music and garnered her several top Country Music nominations, but it also crossed over into pop music and landed #1 on the Billboard Top 100 Adult Contemporary songs.
Swift even won Best Music Video at the 2009 MTV Music Video Awards, or better known as the "Kanye West Incident".
Her CD was one of the top selling albums in the country in 2009 and included 3 of her biggest songs, Fearless, Love Story (which she did live on the finale of Dancing With the Stars) and "You belong to Me".
But here's the problem, and many country music fans might agree...is she really country music?
Her music is more Pop than Country, and while it has done good for the music industry in general, to true and hard core country music fans, it's not country music, and i've got to agree. Don't get me wrong, i'm not hating on Taylor Swift, but her music isn't country music.
Reba, The Judds, Carrie Underwood, that's country music. The simple fact that her song and video was nominated for an MTV music video award ought to tell you everything about Taylor's music.
Overall, she's a good singer and songwriter, but it's not country music.
Fearless/Taylor SwiftAugust 22, 2010 David R. Smouse(Chandler,Arizona) This young lady is phenominal and will be around for a long time. This Platinum Edition is a great buy with all the extras and songs that people will be singing and watching for years to come. You go girl !
An all time favoriteAugust 10, 2010 A Mom Named(TX) Absolutely LOVE this! I was reluctant to get this at first, but my 3 y/o DD loves TS and I couldn't help but surprise her with this cd. We play it almost everyday in the car and listen to it on the way to and from school, so needless to say, both Mom and daughter know ALL the words to ALL the songs! Great music from a great artist :)
