The singer’s debut album Taylor Swift in music, the artist’s namesake, completes, this Thursday (24), 18 years of release. With hits like “Our Song” and “Picture To Burn” the album introduced the world to a star, just 16 years old at the time, who would go on to become one of the biggest pop names of his generation.
The album starts with the single “Tim McGraw” which was actually the first song released by the singer in her career. The song, named after a famous country singer, talks about a young love that would need to end for those involved to go their separate ways. “When you think of Tim McGraw, I hope you think of me,” the star sings.
At the time, “Tim McGraw” was a commercial success, spending several weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot Country Songs charts.
Soon after, “Teardrops on My Guitar” introduced the audience to Taylor Swift’s vulnerability by telling a story of unrequited love. Other tracks on the album even brought the singer’s undeniable brand: transforming personal experiences into stories that are highly identifiable for everyone.
“Should’ve Said No” is another highlight of “Taylor Swift” that also carries, to this day, a great mark of the artist, the pain and disappointment of lovers who did not respect her feelings.
