2006 年，Taylor Swift聪明地借当红乡村巨匠Tim McGraw名字为题，推出首支单曲，反响巨大，随后首张同名专辑取得了乡村专辑销量榜第三名的漂亮成绩。
Taylor Swift受歌剧演员的外婆影响，自小便和音乐结下不解之缘，十岁开始在家乡一带到处表演，十二岁开始苦练吉他，经常弹到手指流血，同时开始尝试作曲。
Taylor Swift的嗓音还带着小女孩特有的甜美，无疑给乡村界注入了一股活力蜜，和年龄相悖的是，她有着成熟创作技巧，亲自参与所有歌曲的谱写，精通器乐，这都是让人赞赏的。

Taylor Swift-《Love Story》

We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I’m standing there on a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know

That you were Romeo
You were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you please don’t go

And I said
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet ’cause we’re dead if they knew
So close your eyes, escape this town for a little while

Oh, oh, oh

‘Cause you were Romeo,
I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything to me
I was begging you please don’t go

And I said
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

Romeo, save me, they’re trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it’s real
Don’t be afraid, we’ll make it out of this mess
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town

And I said
Romeo save me, I’ve been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I don’t know what to think
He knelt to the ground and he pulled out a ring
And said

Marry me, Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone
I love you and that’s all I really know
I talked to your dad, you’ll pick out a white dress
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes

Oh, oh, oh, oh
We were both young when I first saw you

Sunrise, sunrise
Looks like morning in your eyes
But the clock’s held 9:15 for hours

Sunrise, sunrise
Couldn’t tempt us if it tried
‘Cause the afternoon’s already come and gone

And I say hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
Do you?

Surprise, surprise
Couldn’t find it in your eyes
But I’m sure it’s written all over my face

Surprise, surprise
Never something I could hide
When I see we made it through another day

And I say hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
Do you?

And now the night
Will throw its cover down
mmmmm, on me again
Ooooh, and if I’m right
It’s the only way to bring me back

hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
Do you?

hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
hooooo, oooooo, oooooo, oooooo
Do you?

“No One”

I just want you close
Where you can stay forever
You can be sure
That it will only get better

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don’t worry ’cause
Everything’s going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything’s going to be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I’m feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

When the rain is pouring down
And my heart is hurting
You will always be around
This I know for certain

You and me together
Through the days and nights
I don’t worry ’cause
Everything’s going to be alright
People keep talking they can say what they like
But all i know is everything’s going to be alright

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I’m feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel

I know some people search the world
To find something like what we have
I know people will try try to divide something so real
So till the end of time I’m telling you there ain’t no one

No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I’m feeling
No one, no one, no one
Can get in the way of what I feel for you, you, you
Can get in the way of what I feel for you

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

科幻片《守望者》中的Halleujah可谓家喻户晓。片中采用了原唱Leonard Cohen的版本，低沉怀旧的感觉为故事情节带来了一丝温情的浪漫。
Hallelujah。其语应来自希伯莱语，读作 Hal-le-lu-jah。意思是“赞美你，主(哈里路的意思是赞美，亚是耶和华简称)”，英语译作“Praise the Lord”。
这首歌是民谣诗人Leonard Cohen1984年写的，被认为是流行音乐最美的旋律之一。多义的歌词，既有宗教的隐喻，又渗透着有关性的想象。情感低沉忧郁，缓慢的调子似无望的人在向上帝祈求。被公认最佳最震撼的翻唱是Jeff Buckley，收录在他1994年的处女专辑Grace中。Rufus Wainwright在2001年Shrek里的翻唱了Jeff的版本。他模仿了Jeff的风格，不同的是Jeff的配乐只有一把低回如泣的吉他，而后者则配以钢琴，更为流行一些。但从歌曲的情绪感染力角度来说，无疑，Jeff的版本更凄婉动人。

英国著名选秀节目《The X Factor》2008年度的总冠军——Alexandra Burke在赛后于12月15日特别发行的一首圣诞单曲《Hallelujah》创造了欧洲单日销量的最高纪录。据悉，在单曲发行后的一天之内，这首《Hallelujah》便售出105,000张，这个数字打破了同样是从《The X Factor》走出的2006年冠军Leona Lewis《A Moment Like This》所保持的82,000张纪录。

Well I heard there was a secret chord
That David played, and it pleased the Lord
But you don’t really care for music, do ya?
Well it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew ya
She tied you to her kitchen chair
And she broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well maybe there’s a God above
But all I’ve ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who’d out drew ya
And it’s not a cry that you hear at night
It’s not somebody who’s seen the light
It’s a cold and it’s a broken hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

　　我该相信你很爱我

　　不愿意敷衍我

　　还是明白

　　你已不想挽回什么

　　想问为什么

　　我不再是你的快乐

　　可是为什么

　　却苦笑说我都懂了

　　自尊常常将人拖着

　　把爱都走曲折

　　假装了解是怕

　　真相太赤裸裸

　　狼狈比失去难受

　　我怀念的 是无话不说

　　我怀念的 是一起作梦

　　我怀念的 是争吵以后

　　还是想要爱你的冲动

　　我记得那年生日

　　也记得那一首歌

　　记得那片星空

　　最紧的右手

　　最暖的胸口

Remember those walls I built
Well, baby they’re tumbling down
And they didn’t even put up a fight
They didn’t even make up a sound

I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now

It’s like I’ve been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin’
It’s the risk that I’m takin’
I ain’t never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I’m looking now
I’m surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you’re my saving grace

You’re everything I need and more
It’s written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won’t fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You’re the only one that I want
Think I’m addicted to your light

I swore I’d never fall again
But this don’t even feel like falling
Gravity can’t forget
To pull me back to the ground again

Feels like I’ve been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin’
The risk that I’m takin’
I’m never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I’m looking now
I’m surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you’re my saving grace

You’re everything I need and more
It’s written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won’t fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
Halo, halo

Everywhere I’m looking now
I’m surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you’re my saving grace

You’re everything I need and more
It’s written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won’t fade away

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo

I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
I can feel your halo halo halo
I can see your halo halo halo
