    Ok, so this is a fun topic! Things we can commend Taylor Swift for!

    1. Songwriting. Honestly, she has a way of bringing out feelings for people that they truly resonate with. I think this is the secret sauce to her whole thing. She writes honestly and earnestly about emotions and feelings that people can connect with. There isn’t enough of that in our world.
    2. Empathy. She has a way of connecting to people even outside her music. She uses her platform to draw attention to things that matter - I know this hardly makes her unique among celebrities, and her PR is top-tier, but what she chooses to shine attention at is great.
    3. Accessibility. This one baffles me - she manages to retain an element of privacy while seeming to let her fans feel like they’re friends. She brings people together in a way that I haven’t seen since 80’s Michael Jackson. Club membership is all very wholesome.
    4. Commitment. She really brings 100% to everything she puts out there. People can see it and connect to it. She doesn’t turn up an hour late to a show, drunk and phone the whole thing in. She brings all she has to her shows, the constant feedback from attendance is they’ve had the time of their lives.

    I just wish I could bring myself to like her voice. She’s so great at everything else, but I find her voice and song delivery to be barely average. She’s one of the only artists where I like covers of her music better than the original. In fact, it was listening to covers of her songs that really gave me an appreciation for her amazing songwriting.
