All too well

My girl, Taylor, killed it at the Grammys a few days ago.

I don't watch any of the awards shows ever but I knew Taylor Swift was going to be performing so I checked out just her performance after the fact.  Taylor always puts on a good show (hello, "Entertainer of the Year" 2011 and 2012), but I really do think this was her best live performance ever.  I liked the album version of "All Too Well" but the live version from the Grammys blows it away.  I don't want to sound too much like a fangirl (too late) but the emotion was just so awesome in this performance.  You could really feel it.  Taylor has a million excellent lyrics, but my favorite lyrics ever are in this song:
"You call me up again just to break me like a promise
So casually cruel in the name of being honest"
And the way she delivered them (at 2:57 in the video) was beyond perfect.

I'll stop gushing now and just post the video (which is safe for small children to watch / listen).

  1. Gone, but I found it online. tada. Nice. Only saw the head whipping section on the news, followed by praise and prediction that her song writing skills would continue well beyond her head whipping years.
