There are other Taylor Swift compilation videos that emphasize the lyrical aspect of her songwriting, so I thought I would make one that emphasizes the musical aspect of her songwriting., because songwriting is much more than just lyrics.
DISCLAIMER: The intent of this video is not to imply Taylor is the greatest of all time. It is to highlight what makes her different from many other pop stars in our modern era. The typical method of creating pop music nowadays is to have 20 dudes in the studio during a writing session, eight of which will get a songwriting credit. The artists themselves will also get a songwriting credit because they tweaked one lyric or note. Many times the artist is not in the room at all for the production. And if they do have a production credit, it's because they gave their input on different suggestions from the producers.
I am in no way trying to imply Taylor does everything alone. That is preposterous, because no one does. Even artists who write and produce 100% alone still have a team of engineers, mixers, and various other personnel. I am merely attempting to highlight the ownership she takes over her own craft.
