fatrat 84 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I'm far from surprised by old hags actively misemploying their platform by contributing to the virulent narrative that has plagued female songwriters in the music industry for decades on end. While Taylor penned the entire “Speak Now” album by herself at the age of 19, a mere Wikipedia search reveals that Damon had 3 co-writers on his last solo record—or does that not count?

ProfessionalClown 9,718 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Taylor literally has an entire album dedicated to this entire criticism: Speak Now. She wrote every single song on her own, no co-writer. Nothing but her, a pen, and paper. That’s it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way more minor and odd. I feel like this is the actual problem that he has with her music- it's pop music. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstertoronto 7,614 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 He’s just factually wrong. But the fact that he jumps onto just “co-writing” as the full basis of his argument when he completely ignores her many solo written songs shows he’s just out to trash her, it’s not a logical argument at all.

Taylor swift comes to co writers with almost fully formed melody’s and lyrics. It’s virtually all her WHEN she brings in a co-writer. Otherwise she has PLENTY of songs she’s written completely on her own with a piano or guitar. Speak Now was her first album with zero co writes and she did that because her critics, like this dude, were crapping on her for working with co writers on some of her work. Taylor Swift IS the best songwriter of this generation and homeboy can stay mad about it. I agree on everything you said except for the part with „the best songwriter of this generation“. I think she‘s very good but (to me) Lorde‘s Melodrama really set the bar high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneaky Oliver 20,123 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Some people - including ones from this site - need to understand the final song in the album has been part of a creative process. A song is rarely just “one song”, it can change from demo to demo, from every stage of the creative process. Gaga (for example) can write a song by herself and bring the original lyrics to the studio and the producers might suggest a few changes. It doesn’t mean Gaga isn’t able to write a song on her own. Now the producers become co-writes obviously to get the more coins from the released track! I’m on my Legacy Act era Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
