Taylor Swift: "Back To December"


Taylor Swift: "Back To December"

About: The song is a song of apology and regret. The protagonist is reminiscing about a relationship at its peak, recalling the downfall of the relationship, and expressing regret over everything that went wrong. In the lyrics Taylor apologizes, expresses remorse for the failed relationship, and even hopes that someday the relationship can be rekindled. In the video, Taylor is singing in a room, and a guy is walking away down a wintery road. Each one has some sad facial expressions, and it is kind of a depressing video.

Review: I really had to include the song. Allegedly Taylor Swift wrote the song about her romance with Twilight hunk Taylor Lautner, making the song sort of a big deal among middle school girls. The whole Taylor-Taylor thing was a big deal, and girls love thinking about the whole romance thing while listening to it. I don't know if it makes them feel like maybe they vicariously dated Taylor Lautner or what, but they dig this song. They are a little young to have failed relationships, but they have crushes that didn't work out, and they relate to Taylor's lyrics.
