A lot of people don't know this, but this is actually Swift's first album, and is full of great songs. Personally I don't think this is as great as her second album fearless, but is still great for an artist of only around 16 at the time of release. Personal favourites would have to be I'm only me when I'm with you, mainly because of the upbeat feel, and also Stay Beautiful.

I bought this CD while on Vacation last year, a little over priced (at a store, not online), but well worth it! This was Taylor's “break-out” album, and if you don't have this one and you only have Fearless, what the heck? Even at a young age, Taylor has the heart and wisdom of someone beyond her 19 (then, 16/17/18) years. I would definitely recommend this CD to anybody who is going through tough times, because she makes fun of the bad stuff that has gone wrong in her life and she vents it in songs. It's definitely a CD you want to pick up, it'll brighten your day by 100%. For a track that makes you want to get back at your ex, try ‘Picture To Burn’, or if you're the opposite; wanting a love song, try ‘Stay Beautiful’. You totally won't regret buying this CD, at all. Give it a whirl. You'll get lost in the music. :D

Taylor swift is a talented teenager who proves age is not important when it comes to music. Swift writes and co-writes her own songs in this CD. Her music is brilliant. The album stands above the rest. This is a record that every country music fan needs to have in their collection.
