Subject: Taylor Swift now at her peak?

Written By: 80sfan on 01/09/15 at 5:33 am

I don't hate Taylor, actually I quite like her. It's nice to see a female artist who doesn't have to show her goodies (haha) out to the world to sale records. I'm not judging those who do use sex, just to be clear, but it's just refreshing to see an artist like Taylor Swift.

Do you think she's at her peak right now? I mean, she was on Time Magazine during this era. I think her next album will be her peak, just a guess.

What do you think?

She's not reached he peak yet.

But if we start seeing her in "climbing out of her car without any undies" shots, then we'll know that she's on the decline.  :-\\

She has been very successful for several years and throughout many albums. Either she is peaking right now, or maybe she already peaked. Her "Red" album was very successful and had a lot of successful singles. I disliked pretty much all of the singles on that album. My brother thought that she had already sold out by then lol! My mom still likes her though, and she has liked her since she first started. I miss her country music. I hope she goes back to her roots.

Well in fairness to Miley, Ms. Cyrus has not yet done the "climbing out of the car" thing.  :P

She's not going to be.. She isn't talented enough. She has no unique characteristics.

I thought that was supposed to be Lady Gaga? Taylor will probably continue singing into the next decade. She needs to change what her songs are about. She always sings about ex boyfriends or guys treating her wrong. It's getting old.

She seems to be TRYING to channel this Madonna look circa 1993.

I agree. Madonna had/has something to say, not just craziness. But it depends on who you ask though!

With a few films to her name and more songs to come, she is doing well, and the peak as yet, is nowhere in sight.

Can't tell... She exited the SUV like a lady, instead of like she was getting ready on the Gyno table.  ;D

I prefer Madonna, but Taylor Swift is far from the whole manufactured thing.

Madonna was at her peak between 1984-1987.

Was she popular in 1984? I always wanted to ask someone who lived during then!

Taylor seems to have morals. Something celebrities don't always have. Yeah, she hasn't peak either.

Yes, she was. Both my parents remember that year and they were both adults by that time.

Taylor Swift has been around for quite a while.  Personally I see her as somebody whose career will have longevity.  She's a talented artist and not a passing fad like Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus were.

I agree, but I do believe she will have a peak. I think this is it, and afterwards she will become like Shania Twain or Faith Hill or something.

Katy Perry is bubble gum. She just happens to have a special long lasting flavor.

I think Lady Gaga is very talented. I guess she just pushed the outrageousness too far too soon.
