Taylor Swift

Rolling Stone listed Taylor's album Red as one of their favorite albums of 2012. Here's what they had to say:

31 | Taylor Swift, Red

Pop star, country diva, puppy lover, scorned woman, flirt, gossip, sweetheart, brat, poet - Swift contains multitudes, and they're all on display on her big, bustling fourth album. The Max Martin/Shellback-helmed pop moves are headline-grabbers. But Red is not a departure, it's a deepening and accentuating of Swift's natural gifts for storytelling and irrefutable hooks. And the sound expands her musical reach from slick Nashville pop rock (All Too Well) to wintry British mope pop (The Last Time with Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody) and beyond.
