KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - (Business Wire) Great American Country (GAC) gives fans unprecedented access to Taylor Swift throughout the month of November as it celebrates the young artist on its website GACTV.com. (http://www.gactv.com/taylor) Fans can view Swift’s entire music video collection including her brand new clip for “Fifteen” and vote for it on GAC’s Top 20 countdown. Plus, they can put their fandom to the test with GAC’s Taylor Swift Trivia Challenge game featuring 15 all-new questions, watch Swift in exclusive interview segments, browse Swift’s official photo gallery and bio, and even upload their own photos as part of the extensive fan photo gallery.
Swift’s new album, Fearless Platinum Edition, is a CD/DVD featuring all 11 original tracks from the multi-million selling Fearless, plus six all new songs. It also contains music videos, behind-the-scenes footage, exclusive photos, a never-before-seen webisode, and footage of her genre-defying duet with T-Pain from the CMA awards. Plus, when fans order the album through GACTV.com, they can receive a free locker poster while supplies last.
Swift was the primary songwriter for every track on Fearless and despite touring with some of the biggest names in country music and appearing on the cover of Rolling Stone and Billboard, the album still reflects her patented honest, heartfelt style. There is still plenty of heartbreak and romance, just from a slightly different perspective. “I’m inspired by boys and love,” Swift says. “Those are my favorite things to write about and I don’t think that that is limited to high school.”
The now 19-year-old country megastar has grown up since the release of her debut album Taylor Swift three years ago. It shows in her songwriting, although Swift says that is unintentional. “You know, I wasn’t really going for that,” she tells GACTV.com. “I just wrote what was happening to me. I grew up a little bit and that came into my songwriting."
