It all seemed rather innocuous when 'Teardrops On My Guitar' first came out. There was some speculation that she was gong to be something big; but no sure confirmation that she would be the biggest star on the planet. But when the 'Fearless' album came out; here was some signs that she was something special. Almost every song on that album was good; and you just don't get that much nowadays. When 'Speak Now' came out; it kind of cemented her place as a pop legend; as the whole world was enraptured in her songs; becoming what I call the Goddess of Songs as compared to Jacky Cheung.
She also showed her perseverance; overcoming some obstacles such as the Kanye slight; a less-than-phenomenal Netflix documentary 'Miss Americana'; some failed relationships and of course her huge song-writing conundrum that saw her having to re-record almost all her songs to get the rights back. At the end of the day; it is her life-changing songs such as 'Back To December'; 'You're Not Sorry' & 'Enchanted' coupled with her wistful lyrics; that make her the mega-star she is today.
