Nov 3, 2010Taylor was confirmed as a pop singer in her new album and how it can make use of a genre like country music to sell millions while she is destroying this genre, although her lyrics continue to be those of an innocent young girl and continue to generate a good image around it...is the same...always

Nov 19, 2010+3 for exceptional song-writing.
+0 for having no voice and having to make it up with autotune.
+0 for originality.
Not to mention all her songs sound the same. "Mine", although lyrically different, is pretty much just a worse version of "You Belong With Me". -
Nov 25, 2010awesome album. a must buy. Has great songs including the famous hit "Mine" and "Speak Now", with some other great songs like "Better Than Revenge", and "Haunted". Go and buy a copy this second, heck buy 2. that is an order soldier.

Oct 26, 2010This album is 2x better than Fearless. just like how Fearless was 2x better than her selt titled debut album. Taylor Swift has been known to write songs that are like reading a diary diary, which is continued here greatly, sush as the AMAZINGLY personal song: "Dear John". Swifty is growing up, andher music is too.
-
Oct 26, 2010Just awesome - awesome - I wish that "Dear John" was a verse shorter but other then that it was perfect! Wish I could vote 9.5 but have to vote a 10 as Just because one song is just a little long does not mean that it is almost perfect!

Oct 27, 2010Great album. It shows a lot of lyrical growth and her vocals have improved to. The songs are all really good and meaningful. The best songs are beck to december, better than revenge and mean. The only reason this is getting bad reviews is because saddos (like the ones she sings about in mean) are jelous and write bad reviews because they don't have jobs or lives. Best album of 2010 by far
-
Oct 27, 2010Notice that not one of those zero reviews make mention of one song on the album. I call **** **** This is a great pop record with some of the catchiest tracks I've heard this year; at the same time, "Dear John" and "Haunted" show talent beyond the basic stage she's at now.

Oct 27, 2010I'm speechless when listening to this album ( even when its title is Speak Now ! ). Just purely genius and amazing ! I feel charmed through every songs here. Surely a bunch of Grammy awards are waiting for Taylor again !!

Oct 27, 2010Speak Now has a kiss and tell approach but heck, the songwriting is just good. I expected a downfall after a damn strong record named Fearless but she just topped that. The last three songs are great and I expect "Dear John" to appear in some best of year;s list.
Wow. Giving a grade of Zero is really unjust. I thought that this is her best album so far. -

Nov 22, 2010While Taylor still has the stars in her eyes of being a teenage girl, she's also learning some of the hard gritty truths of adulthood, while her songs all sound similar in style and range, her lyrics continue to deepen. She continues to grow and as she does, her music does as well.
-
Nov 21, 2010This album showcases Taylor's growth as an artist. The highlights of the album are: Better Than Revenge, Sparks Fly, Haunted, Mean, Enchanted and Back To December. Overall, Taylor's transition is most evident in her second single Back To December where for the first time she blames herself for the demise of a relationship. This album is Swift's best record to date.

Nov 28, 2010One of the greatest albums of 2010. I'm disappointed because the singles ''Mine'' and ''Back to December'' did not reach the #1 of the U.S. Billboard. I think that the next singles must be: ''Better than Revenge'', ''Dear John'', ''Haunted'', ''Last Kiss'' and ''Innocent''

Dec 14, 2010Brilliant album, one of the best this year. I don't get why people hate her. The songs have a mature sound to it and lyrics are creative as well as really truthful. Her singing has also improved greatly from before. Top songs are Back to December, Long Live, Speak Now and Mean. Highly recommended.

Taylor Swift: Speak Now
Taylor Swift, a 20-year-old country singer, is on top of the world right now. In just four years she has released three albums that have made her one of the most lovable pop artists of all time. Although I have been hearing non-stop about this pop/country sensation for years now, I was never extremely interested in her music. I donâ -

Mar 6, 2011i think Speak Now is the best album of Taylor Swift, maybe better than Fearless. She writes songs with her heart, not like other artists, such as Katy Perry, Ke$ha and Lady Gaga. I am not saying that she is the best, but people really shouldn't criticise her too much, cause simple and childish is what we have forgotten, that's what Taylor has and we don't have!! Support Taylor and all her songs!!
-
Apr 16, 2011This album is her best yet! She puts her heart into everything that she writes and does. Her songs are catchy and heartfelt. I can't wait for her next album!!

May 29, 2011Taylor Swift has yet again released an album that reaches out to those whom love her and respect her for who she is and what she writes about ( usually break ups). Her songs are catchy and easy to listen to and for those who are true fans, still enjoy her music even though she is slightly more country now
-

Jun 26, 2011Wow what an album and it is even better than her previous effort Fearless.It is more mature and diverse.The lyrics are spellbinding and the music is not straightforward as it seems,plenty of twists.
Like it and definitely one of the best this year aside of Lady Gaga's. -
Sep 5, 2011Taylor does it again. With another Pop-Country masterpiece, Swift once again ups her game, improving upon Speak Now's wonderful predecessor Fearless, which in turn, improved upon her self-titled debut album. Tracks like "Dear John", "Speak Now", "Long Live", and the album's best, "Enchanted", mold together to make an amazing third studio album from Miss Swift, her best yet.
-
Aug 31, 2011Taylor cleverly blends pop and country as if it were her own genre. It also shows her growth as a songwriter and is far times better than her sophomore effort. Nice solid album and contrary to popular belief it's not the same as Fearless, it's way more varied musically than her previous albums, experimenting with rock, pop, bluegrass-y country and being successful at it
-
Oct 13, 2011Great improvement from Fearless. Most of the songs are beautifully written with touching lyrics and rhythm. Yet again so-easy-to-feel-related Taylor Swift's style. Some are just meh. But none I would call bad. Speak Now, Enchanted, Back To December, and Last Kiss are definite stars.
-
Nov 14, 2011Once again, she has truly outdone herself. Her songwriting skills are exceptional and her vocal abilities have improved. Songs that stood out to me were 'Back to December' and 'Sparks Fly'. Definitely her best album; can't wait for her next.
-
Nov 23, 2011AMAZING. I love her third album and she can SPEAK NOW all over the world....... All the songs are consistently strong across the board with some standouts and some veritable masterpieces
Go Taylor you can do the best than any other singers. -
Dec 3, 2011I can not get over how wonderful this album is. To this day, every song is full of slightly autobiographical and very heartfelt songs. Despite a couple slow ones, I still love her divine, soothing voice. Good one Taylor!
-
Jan 23, 2012The third album from country/pop artist, Taylor Swift, is a combination of up-tempo country-pop songs, to slow, heart- wrenching love ballads. The album features 14 tracks on the U.S released edition, and is produced by Nathan Chapman, Swiftâ

Nov 28, 2012What's the best with this album is that she wrote all the songs by herself. Here is where we can finally know Taylor. There's a lot of everything. We have country songs, country/pop songs, pop and something more. Lyrics are the best by far, and also the way she uses to express her own feelings. "Speak Now" is, by far, her most mature album yet.
-
Aug 22, 2019Speak Now is peak country Taylor Swift - a showcase of the genius of her songwriting and the perfection of the country-pop sound she had been cultivating since her debut.
-
Oct 31, 2012Taylor Swift's third album is just as good as her second album, Fearless. I love how she wrote her songs with more maturity and affection. I especially liked the songs Enchanted, Superman, and Long Live. Her songs are longer than usual but it won't keep you bored. This album feels really personal as if she is letting us read her diary.
-
Feb 16, 2013Again repeating the fact that her previous album, Taylor presents the best pop album of 2010. From one track to a more vunerável that explores its most aggressive, this girl is another great and phenomenal gift to Pop And definitely do not want the guy who cheated on Taylor Swift.
-
Sep 9, 2013Amazing album, hands down the best Taylor Swift album in my opinion. Could listen to it on repeat for hours and hours. It has incorporates rock/pop sounds and also some country. This album is full of quite long songs and songs like Last Kiss and Dear John you can really feel her pain through the lyrics she sings. She is such a genius song writer.

Jun 28, 2014So far the only word i can say about this album is "WOW" ! This one is fantastic, inspirational, and emotionally deep as some of them really touch my heart - I almost cry after listening to "Long Live". No doubt she is a remarkable talent.
-
Jan 25, 2014Best album by Taylor Swift. I liked how diverse are the songs. It's good musically but lyrically, something is bothering me. Songs like "Speak Now", "Dear John" and "Better than Revenge" made me wonder what Taylor really is inside. In my honest opinion, t's like at some point, she has a very narrow perspective at things. That's just what I think though.
-
Feb 23, 2014I did not like this album. Besides the songs: Back to December, Mean and Mine, I did not like the other songs. They were not catchy and her range is not exactly helping her out. The lyrics are stupid and not inspirational at all. Too generic to be a good album.
-
May 30, 2014Taylor Swift's "Speak Now" proves why she is one of the best in the music industry. Staying true to her country-pop roots, this album has really good songs, even though it isn't that different from that of "Fearless".

Oct 1, 2017Speak 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.

Jun 11, 2015this melody , the songs the way that each written word conveys the life of each one that yes is to be a true artist does not equal Katy perry which is a totally superficial artist and only think about marketing

Feb 9, 2016One of the finest female albuns ever made. "Enchanted" and "Innocent" are the production highlights, but the whole album, exclusively "Mean", developed a succesful instrumental experiment. Taylor Swift has shown her poetry once again.
-

Oct 18, 2015Speak Now is the best album of Taylor YES! (Red Poor), it shows her true side without 11 composers in a song (All The Single Ladies), or buy the almost complete composition of Bonnie (You make me feel like a ...), I think that if Taylor had taken "Innocent" album would be a true work of art.
-
Oct 8, 2016Amazing songs. Amazing lyrics. Amazing vocals. Amazing album. And the fact that she wrote this whole album with no co-writers and also produced it is something to appreciate, not everyone can do what she does. She is a living legend. AMAZING.
-
Jan 12, 2016Speak Now é um ótimo álbum de country. Taylor Swift transparece todos os seus sentimentos de forma magnífica e apaixonante. Porém, eu ainda prefiro o 1989.
Pontos Altos: The Story of Us, Mine, Long Live
Pontos Baixos: Never Grown Up, Better Than Revenge, Last Kiss -
Dec 24, 2017The best self-written album. Lyrics, music and Taylor's voice make this album one of the best i have ever heard.

Mar 4, 2017Definitely Swift's best album. Excellent lyrics. Excellent production, this is so much better than her latest album - 1989. She should go back to this kind of music with meaningful lyrics, real instruments.
-
Mar 12, 2017The 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.
-
Jul 13, 2017Once 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.
-
Jun 8, 2017Un 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.
-
Feb 26, 2018Esse é definitivamente o melhor álbum dela, com letras muito bem feitas (The Story Of Us, Enchanted, Last Kiss, Dear John...) destacando o fato de que ela compôs o álbum inteiro sozinha com 19 ANOS. MELHOR ÁLBUM DELA!

Jun 16, 2017Uno 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!

Jun 19, 2017Speak 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.
-
Apr 8, 2018muy buen album, y mas si sabes que Taylor lo compuso sola, y con la edad que tenia es impresionante

Aug 22, 2017Solo Taylor puede hacerlo de una manera, esa es escribiendo un álbum completamente sola, eso señoras y señoras es talento, Taylor no solo nos demuestra sus mas grandes cualidades, el ser una artista completa y excelente compositora.

Feb 4, 2011Even 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.
-
Jan 11, 2011While 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.
-
Dec 15, 2010Because of the buzz behind it, Speak Now was destined to be a commercial success no matter what. Thankfully, the album succeeds on an artistic level as well.
