Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She is known for narrative songs about her personal life, which have received widespread media coverage. At age 14, Swift became the youngest artist signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house and, at 15, she signed her first record deal.
Her 2006 eponymous debut album was the longest-charting album of the 2000s in the US. Its third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008.
Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", it became the US' best-selling album of 2009 and was certified diamond in the US. The album won four Grammy Awards, and Swift became the youngest Album of the Year winner.

The most annoying bit is trending the stones into the house. “I’ve seen it [tarmacking around cars] before around here. If they wanted us to move it we could’ve done that so they could do a proper job.” Like Alica, many of the residents had moved their cars when prompted to do so by Bury Council, but once the notices came down on Friday they brought them back onto the road as they thought the work was finished.
