"I felt like performing VMAs was the best way to go out there and sing how I was actually feeling. Being there really helped put all that behind me. There's nothing that hard about [being famous]. It's not that tough. I'm not complaining."
-Crossover country-pop superstar Taylor Swift, talking about her powerful and much-talked-about performance at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards. Swift took the stage at the VMAs in Los Angeles for a run through a new song called "Innocent" that inspired a great deal of chatter online about its lyrics and focus, with most people agreeing that the tune appeared to be about Kanye West.
"Innocent" will be appearing on Swift's soon-to-be-released new album Speak Now, which contains 14 new songs, each of which is about a different person in Swift's life. It's a bold move in a more deeply personal direction for Swift, but she feels extremely good about the new songs. "I've written all the songs on it about things that have happened over the last two years, and a lot has happened over the last two years. It's been every eventful, a lot of adventures and misadventures," Swift told Fox News. "I have a lot of fun doing this and getting to write songs about what happens in my life, but putting it all out there in your music — all the details — you're taking a chance with that because you are very vulnerable."
Speak Now will be available worldwide on October 25, with pre-orders (including for the deluxe edition, which features three extra tracks, a trio of remixes and a load of video content) available right now.
