This is a response to 5 Artists I Can't Get Enough Of Right Now.

Taylor Swift is a household name in the music industry, with a career spanning over a decade. She has won numerous awards, broken records, and impacted the industry in ways that few other artists have.

Taylor Swift is undoubtedly one of the most successful and influential musicians of our time. With over 200 million records sold worldwide, she has won numerous awards, including ten Grammy Awards, five Billboard Music Awards, and 23 American Music Awards. Her success has not only cemented her place in the music industry but also made her a role model for young musicians.

Born in 1989 in Reading, Pennsylvania, Taylor Swift began her career as a country singer at the age of 16. Her first album, Taylor Swift, was released in 2006 and was a huge success, reaching No. 5 on the Billboard 200 chart. Her second album, Fearless, released in 2008, took her career to new heights. It debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and spent 11 non-consecutive weeks at the top spot. Fearless won four Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, making Swift the youngest artist ever to win the award.

One of the reasons for Swift's success is her ability to connect with her fans. Many of her songs are deeply personal, drawing on her own experiences and emotions. This has helped her build a loyal fan base who relate to her music and lyrics on a personal level. Her willingness to experiment with different genres and styles has allowed her to appeal to a broad range of listeners, with different eras that fans truly appreciate.

Another factor that has contributed to Swift's success is her business savvy. She has been involved in the production and promotion of her albums from the beginning, and has always been very hands-on when it comes to her career. She has also been vocal about issues such as artist's rights, streaming royalties, and the need for greater diversity in the music industry.

But Taylor Swift's impact on the music industry goes beyond her chart-topping albums. She has been a trailblazer in the industry, advocating for artists’ rights and speaking out against the unfair treatment of musicians by record labels. In 2019, Swift famously spoke out against her former label, Big Machine Records, and its owner, Scooter Braun, for buying her back catalog without her permission. She has been an outspoken supporter of the “Free Taylor” movement, which aims to give artists more control over their own music. She has also been an advocate for causes such as education, disaster relief, and LGBTQ+ rights. She has donated millions of dollars to various charities and has used her platform to raise awareness about important issues.

Taylor Swift is a trailblazer in the music industry, and her success is a testament to her talent, hard work, and business acumen. Her ability to connect with her audience and her willingness to use her platform to promote important causes have made her a role model for young musicians and fans alike. As she continues to evolve as an artist and a person, it's clear that she will continue to leave a lasting impact on the music industry and beyond.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
