J-14's Lessons from Lyrics: Taylor Swift

TaylorSwiftCover.jpg

J14.com's introducing a new column... Lessons from Lyrics: Great Advice from Your Fave Songs!

If you've ever listened to one of Taylor Swift's songs, you would probably agree that she seems like the go-to girl when it comes to advice on boys. Taylor has a reputation for writing songs about the boys in her life and if you listen closely you could learn a lesson or two from her.

She shares her experiences about first dates, breakups and everything in between! Taylor's song, "Fifteen" chronicles her freshman year of high school. Read on to find out what lessons she learned along the way.

Artist: Taylor Swift

Song: "Fifteen"

Lyrics: "But in your life you'll do things greater than dating the boy on the football team. I didn't know it at fifteen."

Lesson Learned: When your crush finally notices you, it's hard to believe that anything else will ever top that moment. But believe it or not, there will be more important events in your life. You may not realize it at the time, but boys aren't everything. Yes, boys are cute and sometimes you can't help but like them! But don't forget about yourself and remember to do the things that you love to do!

omg i love that song. i'm 15 right now and gonna be a sophomore. i think i'm a lot like a younger version of taylor. i'm really quiet and i dont really fit in at school. i'm not the popular cheerleader. i like the guy on the football team who was going out with the popular cheerleader but they recently broke up lol. but ya that more relates to "you belong with me" haha

Ahh! I love this new column J-14! and what I love even more is that TAYLOR was the first artist you picked! (: I love her. She is my absolute favorite famous person ever. Her songs and just herself are so relatable. She's a great role model(:
