    I am completely sure that it is the best album by taylor. she did something wonderful with this album, she took country to another level. This album is a clear example of what Taylor can write, she is the composer of the decade and this album confirms it for me.

    I can never believe that she could write one of the best albums ever of the decade of 2010s all by herself. Taylor Swift is a very great songwriter. "Sparks Fly" is a very fun, lovely song. while "Back To December", "Enchanted", are very emotional songs with beautiful lyrics. I love this album. It is one of the best country albums ever.

    Taylor Swift perfects the fairytale world she created on her previous project with her newest album. 'Speak Now' has become my favorite Taylor Swift project to date. The album takes several risks, but also attempts to play it too safe with some tracks. Swift needs to learn to be all in when it comes to a record and not just go halfway. Majority of the album is graceful and poetic, butTaylor Swift perfects the fairytale world she created on her previous project with her newest album.

    Swift made this almost perfect album primarly by herself, which is impressive. The songs are catchy and danceable, the best ones being 'Mine', 'Mean' and 'Back to December'.

    16.25/17 ~ .956 -> 9.14

    For an artist with my ratings, it is extremely hard to get an album into the “nine” range. So far, I have reviewed six of Taylor Swift’s seven albums, and not one, not two, but three of hers have reached this point. Only nine albums have gotten a score higher than a 8.00, and Swift has three in that range. This just reflects Swift’s ability to write amazing music. Speak Now got a score of 9.14, the second best I have reviewed after Swift’s earlier release, Fearless. This is well-earned, too. As always, Swift demonstrates her music-writing capability by blowing it out of the water with Speak Now. Mine, Mean, The Story Of Us, and Enchanted are some of my all time favorite songs, and a lot of material from Swift’s third album is near this quality. I don’t really have any complaints. Last Kiss might have been a little lackluster but even that wasn’t horrible, as I really liked its lyrics. All in all, I had an amazing time listening to Speak Now and I am sad that there is only one album from Taylor Swift I have not reviewed yet, meaning I am almost done listening to different material from her. I really enjoy Swift’s music and everyone who loves good music will too. Highlights: Mine, Sparks Fly, Back To December, Speak Now, Mean, The Story Of Us, Never Grow Up, Enchanted, Better Than Revenge, Innocent, Haunted, Long Live, Ours, and Superman.    … Expand

My favorite are Haunted, Mine, Better Than revenge, If this were a movie, The story of us, and Enchanted. My one least favorite is Long Live because it’s way to long. Overall I give Speak Now a 9/10

Possibly holding even more nostalgia and fond memories for me than Fearless, Speak Now was the first concert I ever went to and the first album I ever bought myself, when I was in middle school. There isn’t a song on Speak Now I don’t love wholeheartedly, but some of my absolute favorites include: Sparks Fly, Dear John, Never Grow Up, Enchanted, Haunted, Last Kiss, and Long Live.

An entirely self written album that is a testament to her power as a song writer. Once more we are taken into the diary of a growing woman. From the beginning Taylor ropes us in with the preppy love song Mine. Taylor then transitions into an apology for the wrong she did to one of her past loves in Back To December then moving on to a deep cutting and highly revealing Dear John. Touching on the struggles of growing up and moving out to be on your own Taylor begs her younger self to hold onto her childhood memories and to Never Grow Up. Then we receive the effervescent love song Enchanted which transports us all back to a time where we found a connection one night, one that sent us home smiling and full of hope while simultaneously fearing that they may be in love with another. Many non "Swifties" will be surprised to that Innocent is a track about forgiving the infamous Kanye scandal at the VMAs. Singing to West that she understands that sometimes life is hard and that the mistakes of your past do not define who you really are before moving on to two heart wrenching songs. Haunted and Last Kiss are arguably in the top 5 songs off the album pulling at the heartstrings and once more showing Swift's impeccable understanding of heartbreak. Rounding out the album and the song Long Live that champions her success and thanking the fans for always being there and launching her to where she is. Speak Now deserves more credit and is a testament to the power of her song writing skills.… Expand

People who criticize this album have never even listened to it, the lyrical content alone should be enough because there aren't any other pop stars who are making fantastic music these days. this definitely has a place on Rolling Stones 50 Best Female Albums of All Time. This is the best album Taylor Swift has ever put out. Just the fact that she wrote, composed and produced every single track on it is extremely impressive. This album is everything you could ask for being a country-pop influenced album, but I think the most important thing about it is that its lyrics are so deep diverse. Swift goes from singing about love on 'Mine' to break-up on 'Haunted' to dismissing critics on 'Mean' to singing about her crew and her band on 'Long Live' to childhood about 'Never Grow Up' and lots more. I'm tellin' you: this album has everything. Love it. Every single track shines in its way and they're all standouts. This album is proof, again, that Taylor is a perfectionist and that she never misses.… Expand

    Speak Now is the best Taylor Swift album. Everything crafted with so much care, the country pop/country rock songs are really enjoyable. Also, the themes of the album are great in every way :)

    No weak tracks on this one. Taylor put her whole heart in the lyrics, describing different situations in her life that makes the album far from being monotonous. Excellent music, production and a better vocal performance that surpasses her previous album, "Fearless".

    This album is made with Love!
    It's a fascinating album that somehow translated all the magic of a book into an audio and I do not exactly say it's a soundtrack or something like that. On the contrary the album and taylor speak for themselves as if the songs are combined with the rhythm they tell a fascinating story for any person or situation. I acclaim it and if I could I would put it on    This album is made with Love!

    This album is soooooo good. From the beginning to the very ending, every song makes me want to dance and sing along. It gives you fairytale-ish vibes and basically is a ton of fun to listen to. The lyrics are the best of hers. "You paint me a blue sky, and go back and turn it to rain" and "she took him faster than you could say sabotage" are just some lyrics to show how amazing these are.This album is soooooo good.

    Speak Now is just a great album. Yes a lot of it could've been improved but Taylor wrote and produced this album all by herself and for an 18-19 year old writing and producing it, it is pretty incredible. All of the songs were different but still were cohesive. If you're looking for a piece of country work that's lyrically strong, Speak Now is the album for you.

    Once again, Swift has produced an impeccable work of art. The best songs on the album are iconic in Swift's career. Back to December pulls on the heartstrings of the listener. Even the tracks which are not as good, still remain better than the generic music of 2010.

    Speak now muestra los primeros cambios de Taylor Swift hacia una artista más adulta, y ha querido hacerlo notar por méritos propios, componiendo ella el 100% de los temas que llenan Speak now, con letras mayoritariamente amorosas que nos dejan conocer un poco más a la cantante.

Sobre o álbum, Taylor disse durante seu lançamento: “Cada canção é como um roteiro sobre o que essa relação representava, com pequenos marcadores que talvez nem todo mundo vai saber, mas há coisas que eram pequenos detalhes do relacionamento, pequenas dicas”. Em outro momento, Taylor explicou que o álbum se chamaria “Enchanted”, mas depois de uma conversa com o presidente de sua gravadora, Scott Borchetta, eles decidiram alterar o nome do disco porque não se tratava de um álbum de contos de fadas ou sobre seu ensino médio como os anteriores. Foi o primeiro álbum de Taylor a atingir a avassaladora marca de mais de um milhão de cópias vendidas durante a semana de lançamento.… Expand

    Speak Now is a career-defining album. It not only lacks a dud, but it also reminds you that a radio hit can be held to a higher standard and still exceed expectations.

    Uno de los mejores álbumes del 2010. Está suficientemente claro que esta es para John Mayer (ex de Taylor y más de diez años mayor que ella). La canción es muy bonita pero no deja muy bien al señor Mayer, que digamos. En mi opinión, no es una de las mejores del álbum, no me gusta mucho; y además dura nada más y nada menos que... ¡Casi siete minutazos!

    Un álbum con torpes y malísimas canciones. Una chica que solo se cuelga de su relación sin importarle dañar la imagen de alguien más no logra hacer algo potencial para trascender en el futuro. La chica se debe retirar de la música ya que no canta.

    The lyrics on this album are subtle and intricately beautiful. There is a variety of rhythms: some are slow and others are fast. I sincerely think that this album is a work of art.

    Even in their overwork, however, they evince an effort that bears a remarkable resemblance to care‑-that is, to caring in the best, broadest, and most emotional sense.

    While Taylor turns her wrath on a woman who steals her man on "Better Than Revenge," she turns that critical eye on herself in "Back to December," a thorough apology to a former lover she regrets having left behind. Other tunes, such as "Mean" and "Sparks Fly," suffer from generic and sometimes underdeveloped lyrics.
