Plagiarism,shes jumping on Taylor Swifts band wagon
@GovanDUNNY She’s way different than Taylor. I mean the way they’ve done both country and pop is just way different. I don’t know that anybody can duplicate Taylor, but I also don’t really think she’s trying. She comes from southern upbringing, so I just think she’s trying to tell this part of her story. I’m from a rural community and when I was young, I liked country… towards the end of that was the Dixie Chicks. When I got into middle school age, I started rebelling against my country roots and got into The Cure, Depeshe Mode, and the Smiths. The Cure was my shit for all my dark angsty whatever. I also really got into metal like Iron Maiden. and then towards the end of the 80’s and into the 90’s industrial metal launched that married the dark angst of bands like the Cure to a crazy industrial metal sound with my two favorite band being TOOL and nine inch nails. Fucking love those bands and when I first started playing in bands and writing music, it was in that vein. My first band was punk metal, my second band was industrial metal more like KMFDM, and my last band was more a melodic industrial metal somewhere between Evanescence and NIN. We gained real traction at the time (was around 2006) but my life exploded and the band died. Sad because I’ve still to this day never heard anything like what we were. But my point is… now, after all these years, I’m not running from my country roots and actually reconnecting with country in a deep way. Us artists are wierd. Our songs are our journey and it’s not always a linear path. I never begrudge any artist… his or her journey. Be well.
