One can this latest work by Taylor Swift not reproach: that it would somehow unaesthetic. Regrettably, however, the opposite of this statement is so pronounced that "Speak Now" has to put the question of what has to offer the album beyond. Undoubtedly, half a dozen find swing and soulful tracks in it. An unqualified success with the talent to be a perennial in the CD player, it is not. For the compositions of the mass appeal undertook production must be ironed out and the chord progressions in the long run too unimaginative and predictable. Previously I have selected the most albums according to whether the respective performers have their pieces also written himself, because I those who used an external Songwriters not perceived as full-fledged artist. Meanwhile, I must admit, however, that a band like the "Dixie Chicks", which does not claim sole authorship for themselves, have to offer a lot more listening enjoyment and variety as for example Taylor Swift with this record. Conclusion: "Speak Now" is trimmed from start to finish to complacency and therefore make it easy as background music on the side to run without interfering, so three stars. As inspirational or otherwise stimulating I can not describe the album, however. And finally it should be noted that this work has to do with about Country as much as Britney Spears with Metallica.
