God, my 14th post of the day. This is just a cut and paste job off Rolling Stone about Taylor Swift on Twitter. She has 4.5M followers including me. I have 29, not including her. Ps I never did find that pitchfork twitter story but apparent the Flaming Lips guy did well.
Here is their story: “”I… Can’t… Believe… This… You guys have absolutely lit up my world. Thank you.”
That’s what she tweeted after she sold a million copies of the new one.
OK, now here is the bit I’m stealing: “While some musicians—most famously Kanye West and 50 Cent—have used the microblogging service to crank up the volume on their already loud personalities, Swift cruises quietly. She is respectable, with not a foul word or lewd thought in sight, enthusiastic and polite. The phrase “thank you” or “thanks” appears over 50 times on the account she’s kept since December 2008. She’s tweeted just over 800 times total, and the word “love,” in its various forms, shows up over 100 times. In addition to her fans, Swift loves her bandmates, North Dakota, the new Nelly song, fountains, sparkly dresses and Katy Perry. Exclamation points are everywhere.”
