Taylor Swift is an American singer-songwriter who has won a total of seven Grammy Awards, including winning Album of the Year for her second album, Fearless, making her the youngest ever winner of that award. Her most recent album, 1989, sold more copies in its first week than any album in the previous twelve years. Of creating albums, Swift says: “I like to take two years to make an album, because I like to give myself time to evolve and change and challenge myself and try new things. I tend to write for the entire two year process ,but usually the things I write in the first six to eight months get thrown out. Not because they weren’t great songs, but because they don’t fit my idea of what the new album should be.”

Taylor Swift released her fifth album, 1989, on October 27, 2014. In this video, Swift discusses how her recent move to New York has impacted her sound, saying: “It affected every part of my life, which then inadvertently affects my music. So, When my life changes, that’s when you’ll see a change in themes on my albums. So with this new album, my life changed to becoming only about prioritizing my friends above everything else, prioritizing what I wanted, being independent, really protecting that independence and feeling very free to do whatever I wanted artistically, geographically… I moved to New York for essentially no reason.”
