I’m certain my least memorable song will be remembered more fondly and for more time than anything you ever do with your life will be. Everything you say is more “whiny” and “edgy” than I was at any point on that album. But at least I had the excuse of going through chemo.
Taylor Swift becomes the first artist in history have six studio albums reach 10 billion streams on Spotify (1989, reputation, Lover, folklore, Midnights & TTPD).
Steven Spielberg praises Taylor Swift:
"Her place in our culture rivals that of the composers of the American Songbook, Lennon McCartney of the ’60s and the singer-songwriters of the 1970s like Carole King and Stevie ‘Let’s Go Knicks,’ and your namesake, James Taylor... Through her songs, she has taken billions of people by the hand and by the heart, and lights them with a message that is rooted in community and infused with hope and relatability. Through her songs, she makes us believe that we are in this together and together we can grow up, live, love, make mistakes, succeed, fail, and yet continue to believe in our own self-worth. Somehow, Taylor knows us all too well."

“When your fan club includes everyone from icons like Sir Paul McCartney to Stevie Nicks, you can be sure that the hype is more than warranted, and the genius is genuine: Taylor Swift is perhaps the most renowned singer-songwriter of her generation, with a gift that cannot be duplicated. Bruce Springsteen called her a ‘tremendous songwriter.’ Billy Joel compared her to the Beatles, Dolly Parton has been a longtime admirer, and Carole King has called her an inspiration. For this list of esteemed artists who have influenced you throughout your life, to show you this level of respect, must be the honor of a lifetime.”
