At 36, Taylor Swift will become the youngest writer ever inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, echoing the honor she picked up earlier this year as the youngest female writer to join the Songwriters Hall of Fame. The Hall's eligibility clock runs 20 years — and Swift's induction lands on the 20th anniversary of her debut album, Taylor Swift.
In a message read by executive director Mark Ford on the livestream, Swift laid it out: "From the time I started writing songs as a child, I fixated on Nashville as the perfect place to be… a town that validated and prioritized hard work, determination and imagination. To be honored by this city I love so much is a beautiful thing."
Swift goes in under the contemporary songwriter/artist banner. She's joined by Lyle Lovett (veteran songwriter/artist), Shawn Camp and Lee Thomas Miller (contemporary songwriter), and Bruce Channel (veteran songwriter).
Taylor Swift will be inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame at 36 years old, the youngest writer ever to receive the honor.
“From the time I started writing songs as a child, I fixated on Nashville as the perfect place to be,” Swift wrote in a statement. “I wanted to learn with and from the best and get to immerse myself in a community of storytellers, and thankfully Nashville turned out to be exactly what I’d dreamed of. A town that validated and prioritized hard work, determination and imagination. Where the writers show up to work every day even when the mysterious muses and the magic don’t. To be honored by this city I love so much is a beautiful thing, and I’m very grateful.”
The accolade follows Swift having been inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in New York in June, at which point she became the youngest female writer ever to join that hall.

Após Taylor Swift remover suas músicas de diversos vídeos publicados pelo presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, a revista Vanity Fair publicou uma matéria sobre a estratégia adotada pelo presidente e sua equipe de utilizar grandes sucessos de estrelas pop como trilha sonora de vídeos de propaganda publicados nas redes sociais.
Segundo a revista, a prática parece ter como objetivo provocar um conflito direto com artistas que frequentemente se opõem às políticas do presidente e, consequentemente, ampliar o alcance e o impacto dessas publicações.
A revista destaca que essa estratégia “acaba de esbarrar no império de direitos autorais da cantora mais poderosa do planeta: Taylor Swift, que aparentemente conseguiu silenciar completamente diversas publicações da Casa Branca e da campanha republicana feitas na última semana.
[…] Mas, embora esteja se abstendo de comentar, o aparente silenciamento por parte de Taylor Swift do barulho vindo do grupo de Donald Trump pode ser, até agora, a declaração mais contundente do mundo da música contra o presidente.”
Taylor Swift logró que TikTok cambiara las políticas de la red social tras la eliminación de sus canciones usadas indebidamente para promocionar la campaña de Donald Trump.
En una nueva actualización, los artistas ahora pueden solicitar la eliminación de sus canciones de perfiles específicos, como campañas políticas o marcas, mediante eliminaciones manuales dirigidas por derechos de autor.
.@taylorswift13 has now earned 23 total top 10 hits on the Adult Contemporary chart, as "Elizabeth Taylor" rises 14-10 this week.
She ties Mariah Carey for the fourth-most in the chart's history among women, after Barbra Streisand (35), Dionne Warwick (29) and Whitney Houston (26).
Overall, Elton John has the most top 10s, with 43.
For the first time in her career, @taylorswift13 has four songs in the top 10 of this week's Adult Contemporary chart:
No. 7, "The Fate of Ophelia"
No. 8, "Opalite"
No. 9, "I Knew It, I Knew You"
No. 10, "Elizabeth Taylor"
Dating to the chart's launch in 1961, she's just the second artist to chart at least four songs in the top 10 simultaneously. She joins Michael Bublé, who charted four holiday songs in the top 10 for two weeks in 2011, and five songs in the region for one week that same year.
I hope Taylor’s giddy. I hope everything goes off without a hitch. I hope she goes to bed giggling and kicking her feet because she’s marrying the lover of her life. I hope she gets the wedding photos she’s been dreaming about. I hope she feels like she’s glowing from the inside out. I hope she feels so incredibly loved the entire weekend. I hope this is one of the best days of her life🤍
O poema The Tiny Bubbles in Champagne traduzido que a Taylor escreveu sobre o Travis no encarte do The Life of a Showgirl:
"Ele correu até o carro depois do trabalho para pegar o voo
Perdeu o primeiro ato, mas de algum modo
é melhor assim. É apenas certo.
Porque você pode vê-lo abrir caminho em meio à multidão,
Separando as pessoas como um Moisés moderno num mar de lantejoulas.
Ele é um ímã e um trampolim
As bolhas minúsculas do champanhe
Impulsivo mas preciso, ele aterrisou bem ao seu lado
Imprudente, mas nunca com o seu coração
Se ele está ali, você também está
Você começou a sentir que
Cada música que veio antes era apenas uma oração
Uma lista de desejos
Ele não é aquilo que você estava esperando
Ele é mais
É por isso que você resistiu
É por isso que você foi embora
E nada dói, de repente
Ele tem esse efeito."
