Is Taylor Swift the modern female version of "The King" Elvis Presley? I think not.
Taylor Swift? I don't get it

Well she seems to be popular on this forum
I do not know anything about her music but she is probably the top rated performer in the industry. Not bad to look at either!

What?
It is very common for young people to dismiss old people's opinions on no other basis than their age. Nowadays we have the "OK Boomer!" phenomenon. However, I would caution you that the societal decline we are seeing is very real.
People who were used to Edwardian parlor music were horrified at the Bobby Soxers who went crazy over Sinatra's overtly sexualized music. They knew that it signified the death of Christian morality.
Later people who had seen that, and even accepted that, were shocked at the Beatle mania. They knew that it signified a break with tradition, and they feared what it meant. Were the Communists winning?
Today, society is so bad, that Boomers look at the success of Taylor Swift and say, "Well, she's not as bad as some of the others."

I'll be honest, I have never listened to her until this post. Not bad and easy on the eyes.

I don't know much about her or her music, but I know her marketing team are geniuses. Good for her.
She's beautiful, talented, wealthy, and wears minimal clothing. If she can also cook, she gets my vote as the "World's Most Perfect Woman".
How about Lady Gaga? I don't like her, think she is ugly, and I won't listen to her songs. Now my Cousin on the other hand likes her a lot.
What he said!
. Fat, ugly, and buck toothed.

I never did "get" the Beatles and I was a teenager in the 60s.
I list to mostly 60s & early 70s now but when the Beatles come on I change the station.

I don't care for her music. I wouldn't know one of her songs if you hit me with it. But she is a talented, lovely young lady who has made it big. Good for her.
From what I see, unlike many of the so called "super stars", she does have a real appreciation and love for her fans. That I like.

I'm kinda with you here. I always thought she was "awkward" looking. I do appreciate the talent and smarts, though.
Her fan base demographic according to Forbes.

My hippie girlfriend dragged me to a Peter, Paul and Mary concert in the 60's. 1st and last concert I have or ever will attend. Fans have died in Rio's heat waiting to see her. Taylor Swift must be in league the DEVIL.
