Taylor Swift Is Leaving Country Because She Will Only Make Pop Now Thanks To Shake It Off

You said it. Taylor Swift is no longer country. She changed her genre to pop which means all her country songs are now pop. Her country music is no longer country. It looks like country music is losing Taylor Swift as county music has moved on to other country music outputs like Miranda Lambert and Keith Urban. Worse, country music like Florida Georgia Line and Brad Paisley is losing its appeal. America hates country like Tim McGraw and only wants country-less music like pop music and Britney Spears. So let's talk about you why Taylor Swift is pop, not country. Let me guess: Vevo. That was easy. So why Taylor Swift making pop music lost Taylor Swift is country you ask?

It was all started 6 years ago when Taylor Swift released her first pop single called Change in 2008 after Teardrops On My Guitar got a crossover appeal for pop. So it looks like country music hates Taylor Swift and Taylor Swift only appeals pop music. So you have to use pop music to do Taylor Swift. So even with country songs like Ours, Taylor Swift will not appeal country tastes and she only appeal pop tastes which means her country music cannot appeal pop and country department hates her country hits. So I guess pop music listening to Taylor Swift only appeal her pop tastes, not Taylor Swift in general including her country music. Very lazy. Let's continue.

Then we have The Story Of Us off of Speak Now and for Red, we have We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, I Knew You Were Trouble, 22, Everything Has Changed. But now, Taylor Swift is releasing her first pop album 1989 and her pop tracks will be based on late 80s pop music according to Yahoo livestream. Nice. I'm really exciting to see Taylor Swift's first album with no country music as I told from my now defunct blog, PM's Personal Thoughts.

It seems that Taylor Swift thrilled Swifties a few weeks ago when she revealed all the info about her brand new album 1989 in a Yahoo livestream, and proceeded to share the record’s first single Shake It Off, along with the video for the track according to MTV's website article called Here’s Why ‘Shake It Off’ Just Became Taylor Swift’s Second Ever No. 1 Song.

So according to livestream, she explained that 1989 will be her first proper pop album—effectively stating that she’s leaving her country roots behind. And apparently, that’s just what her fans wanted, because Shake It Off officially just hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts! Great for a Taylor Swift single. Good thinking, Billboard charts.

So let's hope Taylor Swift will play all her country music on pop non-stop. So how about a Taylor Swift MTV marathon this year tying in to the release of her fifth album on October 27. Anyway, Shake It Off is Taylor Swift's first number 1 single since I Knew You Were Trouble since Taylor Swift has never confidence on number 1 singles like Avril Lavigne did and she was very picky on her singles. While about 10 of them like Sparks Fly and I Knew You Were Trouble were number 1 singles, the rest like Tim McGraw and Back To December, well, doesn't. But I'm fine with that because I prefer to have Taylor Swift singles like Teardrops On My Guitar to not peak at number 1 on any Billboard. So something like Picture To Burn, Fifteen and 22 will never peak at number 1 on any Billboard chart at all. Lol. Let's continue.

Anyway, let's continue. Surely, this success is partially due to her stellar performance of the song at the VMAs in an old-fashioned, sparkly bralet and shorts two-piece - Taylor Swift was definitely into a pants-free for the whole awards show. I bet MTV would be a perfect time to air a Taylor Swift marathon this fall containing all Taylor Swift music videos from Tim McGraw to Shake It Off. Come on MTV air a Taylor Swift marathon containing all Taylor Swift music videos along with other good stuff like Highway Don't Care.

The success of Shake It Off is a big deal, because it’s only Taylor Swift’s second ever No. 1 track—the other being We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together and taken together the songs reveal that big, danceable songs are just what she needs to stay on top. Despite her past success in country, 2012′s Red was Taylor Swift’s first step out of the Nashville fold, and 1989 will see her shimmying her way into a full-fledged pop star.

It seems that We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together and Shake It Off share another feature in common they’re both anthems that empower girls whether it’s by ditching toxic relationships or ignoring haters, the positive, independent message they send is clear. There will be no more teardrops on Taylor Swift's guitar, and possibly, no more guitars at all. Well except for electric guitar because I want my pop rock songs back, Taylor Swift.

Taylor Swift has always been a record-breaker sales-wise and she’s followed up the massive success of Red with another big win: “Shake It Off” had 544,000 first-week downloads sold. That’s the most of this entire year and the fourth highest of all time!

It’s only gonna get bigger from here.

I guess Taylor's new pop empowerment anthems are taking her straight to the top. Anyway, here's the Vevo link for the music video.

OK, I hope you enjoy reading my article regarding on Taylor's Swift new hit single Shake It Off from her upcoming 1989 album debuted this week on the Hot 100 chart at the top spot, according to reports thanks to VMAs performances wowing fans. By the way, it appears that the newest anthem that rely on ignoring the haters was co-written by Max Martin and Shellback, the uptempo pop track was released under Big Machine Records. Factors that help put up the song into the spotlight include its immense sales, radio air play and streaming, as well as social media activity. Cool. You know what that means, it's time for Taylor Swift to move her country music to pop stations now that Shake It Off debuts at number 1 on Hot 100 chart. After she moved to pop, she will not last very long on pop as Taylor Swift will be tackling new genres later on during her life as well as moving her country music to mainstream stations. Speaking of which, I think now is the time for Taylor Swift to move her country music to pop.

Now, pop music department, please play all Taylor Swift's country singles like I'm Only Me When I'm With You on pop radio. Come on, pop radio, you need to play Taylor Swift's country music like The Best Day on pop radio. Pop radio needs to play Tim McGraw, pop radio needs to play Picture To Burn, pop radio needs to play Should've Said No, pop radio needs to play White Horse, pop radio needs to play Mean, pop radio needs to play Sparks Fly, pop radio needs to play Ours, pop radio needs to play Begin Again, and pop radio needs to play Red. Oh yeah, pop radio needs to play Tim McGraw's Highway Don't Care too. All Taylor Swift's country songs like The Best Day needs to be played on pop radio. They all have the potential to be played on pop radio. This has to happen.

So what do you think? Are you happy that Shake It Off peaked at number 1 on Hot 100 chart? Are you happy that Taylor Swift's fifth album will be her first album instead of her fifth country album? Do you think Taylor Swift will one day play her country singles on pop radio? Do you think Taylor Swift will tackle new genres instead of going back to country later on after she doesn't last very long on the pop department? Sound off below!
