Taylor Swift: Shake It Off (2014 Music Video)
7/10
Taylor is having a great time
30 October 2016
Clearly having a great time, Taylor is taunting her opposition. And looks and sounds great doing so. I still prefer her earlier work, though, LOVE STORY, now you're talking, this one ain't nowhere near, but okay, good one. Just nix on the rapping bit next time, you have a perfect singing voice, dear, that style is for lowlifes who don't have a pedigreed throat like yours.

The video shows her copying lots of styles, most notably the generic hip-hopper girlz from da hood, a very obvious and totally hilarious Lady Gaga look which ya just gotta see, and then there's quite delightfully some saying hello to Avril Lavigne thrown in as well. All in all, a fun-filled display with the rose showing her thorns and getting in her kicks. Taylor the queen is defending her castle from a position of strength, look at her, she is as fit as can be, supple body, her flesh as pure as snow, the voice is absolutely unblemished, the girl is a walking advertisement for pure living.

But but but like I said, LOVE STORY it ain't. She's showing teeth here, it's being MEAN in answer to other people's MEAN. I understand, Taylor, I really do, but just ignore 'em, sail on like a graceful swan, keep it pure all-American, and give us more cute stuff like there in the beginning.

Love your spirit!
