Taylor Swift: Goddess

On Wednesday 30^th March I had the pleasure of seeing Taylor Swift at the o2 Arena. Words cannot describe how good she was. If I loved her this much before that night -------, It was this much afterwards! ------------------------------------------------. Singing a set made up of her biggest hits from her 2^nd album and the cream of her latest one, she had the whole audience in raptures for the whole thing. Whilst myself and my friend felt like the oldest people there when we arrived, we soon realised we weren't, and Taylor was adored by men, women, girls and boys of all ages. To think that 90% of the audience in a 20,000+ seat arena loved this one person was amazing, and the cheering and applause fitted that theory. She could have stopped singing after her opening song and just stood and received the love and attention of the audience for the rest of the night, and the show would have still lasted a couple of hours. Unlike Michael Bublé, who I saw at Wembley in October, her vocals are not world class, but they are still very good and her stage presence and personality more than make up for anything she may be lacking in that area. She acted out each song as she sang them and you could tell that they each meant something special to her. She was also very gracious in her acceptance of the love of the audience, and was either genuinely touched by it all or as good an actor as singer. Whilst I have a sneaking suspicion it may bit a bit of both, I believed everything she sang, said and suggested with her facial expressions. All in all a night worth every penny and a singer worth her weight in gold, who I will go to see again without a second thought. Brilliant!
