hi

that was nice it was great to be here

this is amazing no we were talking

before you've actually been here before

yes I came here I think about five years

ago I was 16 and just about to release

my first single Tim McGraw and so um we

were traveling up the west coast in a

rental car in a Taurus and I was I was

doing my homework in the backseat I was

like home-schooled in 10th grade so that

was when we made this trip to San Jose

and came to see you guys for the first

time and it's wonderful to be back here

and have so many of you come out this

time around it's amazing we're a very

forward-thinking company apparently

having you know when you're 16 also I

want to thank you for being here first

of all from all of us this is really an

honor and a treat now you're in the

middle of your tour for speak now and I

know that you've posted some videos to

your channel sort of outlining your tour

and specifically your trip to Asia and I

want to show clip from when you're in

Singapore now you're in Chinatown but

the Chinatown of Singapore is that right

yes we started out the year going on

tour and started off in Asia and then we

were in Europe for two months so it was

like three months of major worldwide

touring so Singapore was the first place

that we went on the tour alright let's

let's roll that clip

[Music]

and by the way and gas because

[Music]

of course as long as you keep the first

batteries and them they're always gonna

be saying hello that you just always

[Music]

Plus forever I think

just waiting cabs

what's that a cat that's just always

like hey

so this of course has all the makings of

a viral video I mean there's a big

celebrity it's a global thing there's a

cat cat in the video that'll do it I

think that you just said it that's the

essential ingredient is a cat your

YouTube channel is very popular I know

you have over half a million subscribers

that get your vlogs when you when you

post them which is really cool I was I

wanted to ask you off the bat how

important is your channel and social

media in general as a tool for

expression but also for connecting with

your audience I think we've all seen the

effects of social media and how that can

connect people and for me I grew up when

that was just about to set fire to the

world you know I was I think in seventh

and eighth grade when everybody started

having a profile online and everybody

was you know it was all about who's your

friend and who's commenting on whose

page and then it became the YouTube

generation where everybody's looking at

videos everybody's making video blogs

and you know makeup tutorials or this or

that or back-to-school outfit shopping

you know everybody is kind of catching

on to communicating by making videos and

learning how to edit them and it's I

think it's fantastic because it's just a

new skill set for this new generation

and I would be remiss if we're a youtube

video interview and I didn't ask if you

had any favorite and are you really busy

but you have any favorite YouTube videos

or channels that you like to watch yes I

have watched this one like three times

this week cuz it makes me so happy and

it's got these like five or six lion

cubs and there's the lion trainer and

you're like oh the lion cubs are cute

and they're walking around and then they

they jump up on the lion trainer and

they start hugging him and then they're

like making all these little lion sounds

that you don't know you don't either

didn't know what the sounds are that the

lion cubs make but it's amazing it's

just like like they're like hugging him

and he's like oh you always go for my

hair you keep going for my hair and then

he's like oh yeah telling me stories

where where was the zoo it's amazing

it's cuz he's like Scottish and they're

like hugging him and they love him so

much and I don't know it's you got just

watch I guess everybody's gonna run

that's gonna be popular now so well this

isn't just our interview right this is

also your fans interview and you have

some very rabid fans of Swifty's right

they call themselves I know I think it's

so cute they came up with that they're

very serious by the way they don't mess

around they they it submitted thirty

thousand questions to this interview and

and over so curious yeah so we only can

do a few of them and we also have some

from Google but the big biggest topic by

far was songwriting because I think that

a lot of your fans have a big connection

to the stories are you telling your

songs and so let's start with that topic

and this one comes from panda bear lover

13 I mean a lot of the usernames are not

meant to be read out loud so we just

sent it from Florida which comes first

for you as a songwriter the music or the

lyrics I think for me it more comes as a

general idea and my favorite thing about

songwriting is that it's so spontaneous

and unpredictable what's gonna hit me

first whether it's gonna be a general

thought like for example you know I'll

be going through something when I wrote

this on love story that's a song I wrote

sitting on my bedroom floor because I

liked a guy and my parents didn't want

me to date him and so I got this idea in

my head it just popped into my head you

were Romeo you were throwing pebbles and

my daddy said stay away from Juliet and

I didn't know we're in the song that was

gonna fit but I just started there and I

built out from there and it's crazy how

the fastest songs that I write end up

being my favorites the ones that just

happen in just a surge of idea a surge

of inspiration and it's usually

something I'm going through at the time

it's very hard for me to come up with

just some random metaphor for a

situation if I'm not going through it or

haven't recently just gone

but you know I think when I was growing

up my mom was a my mom talks and

metaphor a lot and so I think I grew up

just understanding metaphor and just

kind of loving that how you could take

something you're going through and speak

about it in a different way that applies

how you're feeling to something

completely different but connects it so

I think for me it starts as an idea and

a feeling and an emotion yeah we had a

lot of questions about about the process

from budding songwriters who submitted

questions that are a big fan of it fans

of yours from Buffalo and a bunch of

different places and I mean you know we

were wondering is there one favorite

part of the songwriting process that you

have it I mean is it when you get that

idea or when you're sitting on the floor

in the bedroom or you know yes studio

there are there are several moments in a

song and I won't finish a song if I

don't have these moments where you go oh

like after you read a line and it's

always that same feeling of like oh

that's that that's exactly what I meant

you know if you're in a co-writing

session I'm always the one who will like

be like sitting there for a second and

then I'll say a line and if it's that

moment where you're just like that's the

one that's the line I have to have about

four or five of those lines in a song

for me to put it on a record yeah like

lines where I'm just like yes so that's

my favorite part is then when the song

goes into its phase of being recorded

and then being put on an album and when

you're playing it for people for the

first time when it comes across those

lines that you really feel are like I

don't know like the zingers or like say

it really well yeah um I love watching

people's reactions if they if they if it

comes across like if they get those

lines I'm like yes do it well we'll get

back to the co-writing thing in a second

because there are some questions about

that as well but here's another question

this is from music maniac in Los Angeles

you've said you're already writing for

the next record can you tell us anything

about it

well yeah for me I never

really switch the the writing switch off

it's always on because I kind of have

always felt like to make an album that I

am proud enough of to give to my fans

and and say here you know allow this

into your life it has to be like it has

to be two to two and a half years of

writing and that way you know you have

your best stuff because I'm so tough on

myself I Drive myself insane writing

records and albums because it's like

I'll write like 40 to 50 songs and then

13 or 14 make it that's a lot of paring

it down and making sure you're getting

to the best stuff yeah so for me it

takes a while and I've been writing ever

since I stopped writing the last album

and there's been a lot that's happened

and I never really talked about my

personal life but I write about it yeah

that's basically what the album is about

as always yeah the unreleased thing was

something that came up a lot and one of

the top voted questions was about you

know would you ever make a CD of your

unreleased songs from a swift fearless

in Missouri but I mean what happens to

those songs that don't make it the album

and you know would you ever release some

of the songs you wrote especially when

you're younger like 14 15 well I'm very

I'm obsessed with the latest song that

I've written I'm very guilty of that

because like my favorite thing is always

the newest thing that I've written but

lately I've become a little more

self-aware because I had this song that

I wrote when I was 16 and it's called

sparks fly and I played it in a few

shows this these little bar shows when

you know when I was playing to crowds of

like 40 and 50 people and being psyched

about that many people showing up and I

played it a few times and it got on the

internet and when I was putting together

the Speak Now album the fans just kept

saying over and over again sparks fly we

want this to be on the record and so I

went back and I revisited it and I kind

of rewrote some things and updated it

and when we put it out as a single it's

it's been one of the fastest-rising

songs we've had on the record so it's

kind of taught me a lesson about the old

stuff

be possibly being good enough to put on

new projects yeah I'm sure there's a lot

of people that would love to hear some

of that stuff let's move on to some of

the release songs this is a question

from cookie 13 cupcake this is in the

United Kingdom this is gonna be a long

one

all right so out of all your release

songs which song took the longest to

write I think that the song sparks fly

the fact that it technically was started

when I was 16 and ended up on an album

in sort of a different form in 2010 that

took a while for it to turn into what it

was going to be so I'd say that was

probably the longest developing song

that I've ever put out because most of

them and especially having written this

entire new record without any co-writers

it all happened really fast cuz I'm very

impatient like if I don't have a song

finished I'll obsess over it I won't

sleep that night and I'll just edit

constantly to the point where I can't

focus on a conversation everyone around

me is annoyed because they're like

clearly you're working on something just

finish it so that that one was a long

time to kind of get where it needed to

be cool so let's talk about that

co-writer thing for a second you as you

mentioned this album was all you as far

as it first speak now and but you do

often work with with co-writers and how

do you decide if you're gonna write a

song with a co-writer or whether you're

gonna tackle it yourself well there are

a bunch of different circumstances that

could bring about a co-write if if I'm

writing for somebody else's project

that's always exciting for me like I

love to put myself in somebody else's

shoes and you know think about their

style of music incorporating their

storyline what they're feeling it's

really fun for me to do that so I love

you know writing for other people and

then you know if I'm working on an idea

but there's like a stopping point where

I can't really figure out like where

this chorus is going or if I'm right if

my hunch is right about the hook or

things like that

if there's a definite stopping point

I'll bring it to a writer that I trust

or a writer that I admire and just ask

them what they think a lot of times

co-writing you know I write really well

with people who don't even play

instruments or saying because you know a

lot of times my best co writers are just

really great at giving advice like do

you think this course is too long yes

like thank you yeah is there anybody

you're working with right now that you

could talk about yes you know for me

since I write so much and I don't know

what's gonna end up on the record

it's um I never want to say well you

know wrote with this person and because

then what if it doesn't make it on the

record but and then writing for some

other people's projects in which case I

feel weird talking about it because it's

like their project so so yes but okay

yeah this was a popular a lot of votes

for this question this is from quadratic

formula in Michigan it's appropriate for

the Google do you sing your own songs in

the shower yeah awesome that's great

[Applause]

is do you have like any sort of favorite

place for writing songs no actually I

kind of have become you have to adapt

yourself to a million different places

to write when you're always on the road

because I just I don't have the luxury

of saying well I have to be in this

certain room at this certain part of

town and it has to be you know a one

color tone and there has to be smart

water in there you know like it's just

you're never ever anywhere for more than

two and a half seconds so you know I've

written songs in Airport bathrooms on

paper towels I've written songs which

what song was on a on a bathroom towel

at one point oh it hasn't come out yet

oh you know in the bus bunk you'll wake

up in the middle of the night and you'll

have this idea and then so you write it

and you're up at 4:00 a.m. or you know I

get awakened by song ideas all the time

and it's just it's like I wake up and

I'm just like oh great because I know I

won't forget I won't remember it in the

morning so you have to record it and

then it's this whole thing where you

check your phone and it's like mumbling

and you don't understand you thought it

was great at the time yeah actually one

of our Googler questions was about about

you recording songs into your cell phone

is that something that you do regularly

yeah the ideas always end up in my phone

because it has a great recording thing

in there and you know for me it's like

you just write wherever whenever you can

and that's been really fun for me

because sometimes I'll walk into a hotel

room and I'll be like I've been here I

wrote back to December here like it's

it's fun because you have these memories

of writing songs all over the world yeah

cool so I know a lot of your songs are

very personal songs and a lot of your

fans are very interested in that stuff

but this one came from Michaela K in

South Florida has any guy asked you not

to write a song about him before you

went on a date

not at that point in the relationship

because at that point they're thinking

that you know I would never have any

reason to read about song about them and

then it's when you know it when they

start to you know treat me in a way that

wouldn't reflect well on them in a song

if I were to be on okay yeah I've had a

guy be like you're not gonna write about

this are you

I'm like yeah I am a big essentially

that's a point in a relationship that

you would have to have is this is the

part where I tell her not to write a

song about me yeah well and you'd think

that they would decide that before

asking me on the date or before we

become a couple or before all this stuff

happens but it only occurs to it only it

will him it only occurred to him when

when it when he it occurred to him that

it wouldn't be a good song

do you always write about you know

people that you know yeah because I feel

like in a song I love it when a song is

a story and the story develops and my

favorite stories have really beautiful

characters and I feel like you can most

accurately describe a character if you

know them one of my favorite songs that

I've ever put out is called 15 and it's

about my freshman year of high school

and it kind of chronicles my best friend

Abigail and and me and the way that we

went through our freshman year of high

school in the lessons we learned and

that's kind of how I like to tell a

story is from the point of view of

really knowing what you're talking about

and knowing where you're coming from

because you were there yeah so let's

actually go to another video our first

video question and this one comes from

Cleveland Ohio so let's roll it

hey Taylor I have a question for you I

know a lot of us can relate really

strongly to your songs and your lyrics

and considering I've gotten choked up a

couple of times just listening near

songs I wonder if you ever get choked up

on stage or what you're saying

about when you're on stage she's pretty

huh um I I'm really in it when I'm on

stage and um you know I go through a

rollercoaster of emotions when I'm

performing my show because these are all

songs about people who have been in my

life who a lot of them some of them

aren't in my life anymore and you know

sometimes that'll hit you in just the

right way and when when an emotion hits

you strongly it doesn't matter if you're

in front of 20,000 people it hits you

and you know for me I'm I'm in those

songs fully feeling all of it until I

hear the crowd start screaming at the

end of the song at which point I'm just

like like can't stop smiling because my

favorite sound in the world is the sound

of thousands of people screaming all at

once it's it's a really amazing sound

and so I'm completely feeling all the

sadness and frustration and anger and

hurt and then the crowd starts screaming

and then everything is right in the

world

well well we'll talk about the tour and

some of that stuff in a second I want to

ask one more Googler question about

songwriting and that was has that

process that you sort of talked about

earlier has that changed over the years

because you know you've grown up a lot

and everybody's heard you sort of grow

up yeah I think it really has I think

that you can only hope that as a writer

you start trying different things and

you try different chords or different

structures of songs different beats that

you've never really explored that path

before you know and I think having

always been a writer first I'm obsessed

with the syncopation of the way that

words sound when they're said a certain

way and once I've kind of done something

once I always want to go to a different

direction and never repeat myself so as

a writer I think that I've always hoped

that my music would constantly be

changing because you never want to make

the same album twice the same song twice

and you know my greatest hope has been

that as I grow

my fans will grow up with me and as I

change and my life changes my music will

change as well so wish me luck there

let's talk about your fans a little bit

more this is a question from Canada from

YouTube well it was the funniest thing a

fan has ever done to get your attention

well there's a lot of that lately

because we have this thing called the

tea party room and you know I have like

four or five meet and greets before the

show but after the show there's a

meet-and-greet for surprise people who

did not know that they were gonna get a

meet-and-greet because they were picked

for the tea party room which means that

they were like going crazy dancing the

whole time dressed in some absurd crazy

costume from one of my music videos or

just knew every single word and we're

just screaming the whole time like

people get picked for different reasons

but it's it's been crazy lately because

a lot of people have been going for the

costume route really so we'll look out

and like my guitar player were like lean

over to me back that girl is dressed

like a chicken and I'd and like I'm

trying to find the meaning I don't know

why but you know we'll look out and

there's like a Santa Claus and those

these are just like duct tape their

entire body in neon duct tape or people

who have just like made giant cupcakes

around themselves and they're like

they're this big or people who have like

dressed up from the mean video or

something like that but then there's

just these ones where like the girls

dressed as like there's like a clown and

a starfish and we're like I don't know

why but I love it like and so there's

there's been a lot of costume stuff

going on lately on the tour so if you

look around and you see someone dressed

up as a giant cow and you don't know why

we don't know why either but it's it's

welcome now this is a I love swift one

from Toronto

another Canada question has a fan ever

made you cry yeah

you know for me like it's never gonna be

okay no matter how many times I see

little kids with cancer like there's

there's a at no point do you ever become

accustomed to it at no point do you ever

just brush it off and say oh well

there's another kid who's dying you know

and I over the years I've toured in

these places and you see like a little

girl who come through and she's like so

full of life but she's lost her hair and

then you come through a year later and

you're like hey Lexi how are you doing

he's just like I'm doing good and then

they you're her parents update you and

and then you come by like a year and a

half later and she's not there so it's

yeah yeah you have all these fans all

over the world of all different ages and

types and you know when you were young

did you think there would be any other

career path so you were gonna take that

you might not have ended up in this way

yeah I mean ever since I was a little

kid ever since I was like eight years

old my dad has been telling me to save

my money or invest in utilities and

because my dad is a stockbroker and he

lives and breathes it I mean he's like

my dad is so passionate about what he

does in the way that I'm passionate

about music this guy lives for being a

stockbroker that is his thing like and

anybody who talks to him like he'll talk

about me for the first five minutes and

then it's like well say what are you

investing in like okay and I mean it's

just like he loves it and so I thought

like I didn't know what a stockbroker

was when I was eight but I would just

tell everybody that's what I was going

to be like you know it would be it like

you know first day of school and they're

like so what do you guys want to be when

you grow up and everybody's like outta

be an astronaut or like I want to be a

ballerina I'm like I'm gonna be a

financial advisor

and I don't know I I love my dad so much

because he's so gung-ho for his job and

I just saw how happy it made him and I

just thought like I can broke stocks

like Taylor Swift commodities trader all

right let's talk about music videos for

a second there's a lot of questions

about your music videos as I mentioned

before the music videos that you have on

YouTube have been seen over half a

billion times was there what was your

favorite music video to make and why

that's from Sophie Carrie in London my

favorite music video to make um okay

well I loved I loved making the video

from mine because it dealt with this

whole storyline and it's like got

flashbacks and flash-forwards and there

were also a bunch of little kids on the

set and they're so fun they make it so

much fun because there's a lot of

sitting around and waiting on sets and

we were in Maine so we're sitting around

and waiting on a beach and so all of a

sudden you're just playing with like ten

kids and they're like wrestling with

each other and throwing sand and like

playing catch and it just makes the

whole thing much more fun so I think

that was my favorite one to make yeah

were there any cool locations or

anything from any of those videos well

yeah we went to Kennebunkport Maine

which was this little town that I've

always dreamed of going to and so

shooting a video there was amazing it's

this little coastal town and it was it

was really awesome I loved it yeah so

let's talk about the tour for a second

you're in the middle of speaking out or

and very famously you've had some really

cool surprise duets that you've done and

you also do some very classic you do

covers of some classic songs all the

time pretty much every night how do you

choose what covers you'll end up doing

in any particular concert well I am I go

online and I just kind of Google like

what people what famous musicians are

from a certain area and I just picked my

favorites because you know I've I've

loved so many different kinds of music

and I've never really been John was

specific as far as what I listen to so

there's always like a favorite song of

mine for

from a certain area and you know it's

really fun to do like a few every night

like you know in California I do like

god only knows by the Beach Boys and

then sweet escape by Gwen Stefani it's

like it's just been really really fun

because it's just me and my guitar

during the acoustic set and you can just

do whatever cuz it's just you and your

instrument it's a really spontaneous

part of the show yeah have you done any

particularly unusual ones yeah um you

know it's kind of unusual with unusual

when I rap you know people don't really

like I guess people don't see that

coming but I love lose yourself and so

we were in an area where we were like I

think we were in Michigan and I just

started like I started playing

acoustically lose yourself and I just

started off with like yo and everybody's

just like what is happening this is

really weird but um I just I love a

great song I don't care what genre it's

in I don't care if it's completely

opposite from what people think is you

know country music and I just I love a

great song yeah one of the Googler

questions that we got was about which

song of yours is the most fun for you to

perform um I really like better than

revenge it's a song off of the album

speak now and it's about a girl who

stole my boyfriend and I got mad and I

wrote a song about it

and um we do this like just it's just

furious and angry and fun and like we

have this gigantic bridge that drops

down from the ceiling and me and my my

two backup singers are on the bridge

just like throwing our hair around and

head banging and so that's a really fun

one to do and for me they're all they're

all really I think Dear John has a fun

payoff um if you go see the show I

really love singing that because in the

end it's got this you know pyro filled

payoff in the end

would you say those are two uh songs to

get the crowd going the most or their

other ones I'd say you know you got to

come to a show because the crowds are

really kind of steadily ear-piercing ly

loud throughout the whole show

they're amazing like it's really hard to

gauge like which is the moment that no

they're the loudest because they're just

really really loud all the time here's a

funny question this is from Ali Law in

Dunlap Tennessee you seem like the kind

of person that would name their guitars

do you name your guitars and what are

their names

I do seem like that kind of person but I

haven't done it yet I kind of think back

on the situations when I got them like

when when I fell in love with that

particular guitar like there's one of my

guitars it's an acoustic and it's blue

and it's got koi fish swimming up the

neck and like inlays it's just beautiful

and it was Bob Taylor sent it to me for

my 18th birthday

oh wow so I remember the first time I

like opened up this guitar case and I'm

just like there's the guitar it's like

this gorgeous guitar and so that's what

I remember about that and then there's

this sparkly guitar that I play that has

hundreds of tiny little crystals on it

and it looks like we had it specially

made but really we just glued them on oh

really

yeah and and sometimes little ones fall

they fall off and so we'll have to

superglue more on with tweezers so

that's always what cracks me up about

that because it's like everyone's like

where did you have your guitar specially

made I'm like superglue like how many

how many guitars used in a show only

those do you go through okay well um I

was a weird sound I just made that was

weird sorry um

the first one is electric the second one

is acoustic koa then there's the 12

string then there's the blue koi fish

one and then there's like four or five

yeah well and then there's a ukulele and

again Joe

of course obviously you're you're on

tour a lot and you your that's where you

spend a lot of your time but there were

a lot of questions about what you do

when you're not performing and you're in

between gigs besides writing songs like

you do and so you know I guess the first

question are there any movies that you

like to watch while you're on tour I

watch a lot of TV like a lot of TV and

my favorites are like the crime shows

where it starts out and you know you

can't miss the first scene or else you

miss like the discovery of this crime

scene and and then you know the like

twists and turns of it all

I love CSI Law and Order SVU without a

trace

NCIS lockup raw like well I just am

really afraid of getting in trouble you

have no idea

all right that's who watched his lockup

it's Taylor Swift actually yeah it's

awesome

no no but also one of the questions that

we got was about what books that you

read in your free time

Oh mostly history I'm obsessed with

other time periods and like I just I'm

always looking up museums or like the

Historical Society or like historical

landmarks that we can go to in a

particular City where we are and

recently I've been reading a lot of

books on like John Adams and Abraham

Lincoln and I read this like 750 page

book called the Kennedy women and it

dates back to like the the lineage of

the first Kennedy woman who came across

from Ireland on the boat and like the

1860s and it's just this crazy

interesting read so that's what I've

been reading lately I'm sort of obsessed

with history yeah let's talk about books

for a second one of the questions that

we got actually from one of the future

Googlers in the in the audience was that

about how you wrote a novel when you're

11 years old I was 14

no wait you were younger I

like 13 I think teen yeah but I did I

was I was I have a lot of different

epiphanies I'm always have different

ideas as to like you know this would be

a good idea and one summer I was I was

at the shore we used to spend our

summers in Stone Harbor New Jersey and

all my friends were back in Pennsylvania

and so I had nothing to do and so I had

this epiphany I'm gonna be a novelist

and I'm gonna write novels and that's

gonna be my career path and so I would

write different chapters of this book

and send them back to my friends and I'd

write them into the kit into the book

under different names but totally

describe their personalities and it was

a really fun way to spend the summer and

my parents were so frustrated cuz I

would never go outside I just be like

locked in this little study with my

computer but I've always been a writer

first it's it's my favorite thing is how

you can convey a thought or a story or

completely destroy describe a character

or a situation through words and the

right combination of words and the whole

process of editing and re editing and

rethinking and imagining and you get

these little mini just epiphany ideas

that come to you and I think that that's

what I loved about writing the novel and

that's what I love about poetry and it's

what I love about songwriting yeah and

while on this topic of things you do

while you're on tour and and and stuff

we had a lot of questions about what it

is that you like to do when you're on

tour and you're not performing is there

any other things that you like spend

your time doing what I love to do um you

know I'll I watch a lot of TV crime

shows

yeah crime shows that's pretty much the

hobby list

so we have another question from a

Googler here and this is it says as a

father of a teenage daughter it's great

to see that solid songwriting and

hardware can get recognized do you have

any advice for young aspiring musicians

absolutely I think that you have to love

it more than anything else and you have

to love it for so many more reasons

other than your idea of what the end

result could be like you don't make an

album so that you can get a platinum

record to hang on your wall right and

you don't go on tour so that you can

hang the sold-out plaques up in you know

your bedroom it's like it's it's so many

little stepping stones and so many

people have this idea that it's like you

get discovered and then you get the

record deal and then you record the song

and then this song goes number one and

then you know and it's like it's never

like that like very rarely is it like

one thing leads to another which leads

to another and result it's it's so many

dead ends and switching directions and

going back and replanting and rethinking

and so many interviews and strategy

meetings and management meetings and PR

meetings and so many things that are so

outside of music that you have to love

music so much that just your hour and a

half to two hours on stage every night

is worth everything else that you're

gonna go through and also I would say

play your own instrument because it's

easier than dragging around like a

karaoke machine you know like when

you're starting out you have to provide

your own background music and it's just

so much easier to play your own

instrument okay

cool all right so we're gonna we have

one last question this is a is a video

question another video question and it

comes from Chicago Illinois it's a

little bit different than some of the

questions we've been talking about so

let's roll that hey Kayla it picked I

have a question for you

what does being beautiful mean to you I

mean define your definition of beauty

what Beauty means in your eyes and why I

love him I think for me beauty is

sincerity I think that there are so many

different ways that someone can be

beautiful you know someone's so funny

that they're it makes them beautiful no

matter how they look because they're

sincere in it or somebody's like really

emotional and like moody and thoughtful

and stoic but that makes them beautiful

because that's sincerely who they are or

you look out into the crowd and you see

someone so happy that they're smiling

from ear to ear and that sincerity comes

through I think that's what makes

somebody beautiful and I've never felt

like there's just one way to be

beautiful you know tall or short

straight hair or curly or or whatever

some people have their definitions of

their types you know for me I think that

when I meet someone and there's that

magical thing about them that makes them

unforgettable it's that they're sincere

and honest and whoever they are be that

funny happy sad you know going through a

rough time sarcastic I think that these

personality traits that come through

when somebody is really sincere is what

makes them beautiful cool I think that's

a great note to end this on since this

is a YouTube interview there's a sort of

a tradition that we have that where we

are they oh there they are

so you it's honorary for me to give you

a pair of the YouTube tube socks thank

you

[Applause]

and wear these with sandals and you're

gonna be where we're gonna look so great

they'll be really great for you on tour

now we actually so we handed out some

tube socks to people that were coming in

who got tube socks here so we actually

there's a thing inside everybody that

you want all of you guys have got tubes

are actually getting tickets to Taylor

show tonight so I will see you later

so let's hear one more time for Taylor

Swift thank you for being here

thank you

[Applause]

嗨

，太好了，很高兴来到这里，

这太棒了，不，

在你真正来过这里之前，我们正在谈论，

是的，我来到这里，我想大约五

年前，我 16 岁，即将发布

我的 第一个单曲蒂姆·麦格劳（Tim McGraw），所以我们

在金牛座的一辆出租汽车中沿着西海岸旅行，而我当时

正在后座上做作业，我

就像在十年级时在家上学一样，所以那

是我们这次旅行的时候 圣何塞

，第一次来看你们

，很高兴能回到这里

，这次有这么多人出来，

这太棒了，我们是一家非常

有远见的公司，显然

在你 16 岁的时候就知道了 我

还要感谢您首先来到

我们这里，这真的是一种

荣幸和一种

享受 有点概述你的旅行

，特别是你的亚洲之旅，我

想展示 cli p 从你在新加坡的时候开始，

现在你在唐人街，但是

新加坡的唐人街是对

的 几个月的主要全球

巡演，所以新加坡是我们进行巡演的第一个地方

，好吧，

让我们推出那个剪辑

[音乐]

，顺便说一句，加油，因为

[音乐

]当然只要你保留第

一块电池和它们他们' 我总是

会说你好，你只是一直

[音乐]

Plus 永远

视频中有一只猫猫会做到的我

认为你刚刚说过那

是猫的基本成分你的

YouTube 频道非常受欢迎我知道

你有超过 50 万订阅

者会在你当你

把它们贴出来 真的很酷

我想问

你你的频道和社交

媒体作为一种

表达工具以及与

你的观众建立联系的重要性我想我们都已经看到

了社交媒体的影响以及如何 这可以

将人们联系起来，对我来说，我长大了，那时我

正要放火

全世界

朋友，谁在评论谁的

页面，然后它变成了 YouTube

一代，每个人都在看

视频，每个人都在制作视频博客

，你知道化妆教程或这个或

那个或返校服装购物，

你知道每个人都在

追赶交流 通过制作视频并

学习如何编辑它们，我

认为这太棒了，因为这只是

新一代的新技能，

如果我们是 youtube 视频采访，我会失职

我没有问你

有没有最喜欢的，你真的很忙

吗，但是你有喜欢看的最喜欢的 YouTube 视频

或频道是的，我

这周已经看了 3 次，

因为它让我很开心，而且

它得到了 这些就像五六只

幼狮，还有驯狮师，

你就像哦，幼狮很可爱

，他们四处走动，然后

他们跳上驯狮师，

开始拥抱他，然后他们

就像 发出所有

这些你不

知道的小

狮子的声音 为了我的

头发，你继续为我的头发，然后

他就像哦，是的，告诉我

动物园在哪里的故事，这太神奇

了，因为他就像苏格兰人，他们

喜欢拥抱他，他们非常爱他

，我不知道这是 你只是

看着我猜每个人都会跑

现在很受欢迎

这不仅仅是我们的采访，这

也是你的粉丝采访，你有

一些非常狂热的 Swifty 粉丝，

他们自称我知道我觉得

他们想出的这个很可爱，以至于他们

非常认真 他们不会乱来的方式，他们

向这次采访提交了三万个问题，

而且非常好奇，是的，所以我们只能

做其中的一些，我们也有一些

来自谷歌，但到目前为止最大的话题

是歌曲创作，因为我 认为

你的很多粉丝与故事有很大的联系

你在讲你的

歌吗，所以让我们从这个话题开始

，这个来自熊猫爱好者

13 我的意思是很多用户名都不

是为了大声朗读 所以我们

刚从佛罗里达寄来它

，作为词曲作者，音乐或

歌词对我来说是最重要的，对我来说，它更多的是一个

普遍的想法，我最喜欢

写歌的地方是它是如此自发

和不可预测，什么会打动我

首先，这是否会是一个普遍的

想法，例如，

当我在爱情故事中写下这首歌时，我会经历一些事情，

那是我坐在卧室地板上写的一首歌，

因为我

喜欢一个男人而我的父母不想要

我 和他约会，所以我脑子里有了这个想法，

它突然出现在我的脑海里，你

是罗密欧，你在扔鹅卵石，

我爸爸说离朱丽叶远点，

我不知道我们在这首歌中

会很合适，但是 我刚从那里开始，然后

从那里开始发展，这太疯狂了

，我写的最快的歌曲最终

成为了我的最爱

如果我没有经历过或者最近没有经历过，我很难

想出一个随机的比喻来形容这种

情况，

但你知道我认为当我长大的

时候，我妈妈是我妈妈的谈话对象 和

很多比喻，所以我想我长大了

就明白了 ng 比喻，只是

有点喜欢你如何看待

你正在经历的事情，并

以不同的方式谈论它，将

你的感受应用于

完全不同的事情，但又将它联系起来，所以

我认为它始于一个想法 和

一种感觉和一种情感是的，我们对初出茅庐的词曲作者提出了

很多关于这个过程

的问题，他们提交的

问题是

你来自布法罗和许多

不同地方的粉丝的忠实粉丝，我的意思是你知道

我们想知道的是 歌曲创作过程中有一个你最喜欢的

部分

我的意思是当你有这个

想法时，或者当你坐在卧室的地板

上，或者你知道是的工作室时

，一首歌中有几个时刻

，我赢了 如果我

没有这些时刻，你就不会完成一首歌哦，

就像在你读完一行之后，它

总是有同样的感觉，哦

，这正是我的意思

，如果你在合作写作，你就知道

会议我永远是 谁会

喜欢坐在那里一秒钟，

然后我会说一句台词

对我来说，是的，就像我喜欢的

台词一样，这是

我最喜欢的部分是当歌曲

进入录制阶段

，然后被放入专辑以及

播放时 人们

第一次遇到

你真正感觉到的那些台词就像我

不知道喜欢 zingers 或者喜欢

说得很好是的，我喜欢看

人们的反应，如果他们遇到的话，

就像他们得到 那些

台词我想是的，做得好我们会

在一秒钟内回到共同写作的事情，

因为还有一些问题

，但这是另一个问题，

这是来自洛杉矶的音乐狂人，

你说过你 '已经在

为下一张唱片写了，你能告诉我们什么吗？

是的，对我来说，我从来没有

真正关掉写作开关，

它总是打开，因为我

一直想制作一张我很自豪的专辑，然后

送给我的歌迷

，并在这里说你知道让这

进入你的生活吧 必须像它

必须是两到两年半的

写作，这样你就知道你

拥有最好的东西，因为我对自己太苛刻了

我让自己发疯写

唱片和专辑，因为这就像

我会写 比如 40 到 50 首歌曲，然后是

13 或 14 首歌曲，这需要大量

削减，并确保你

得到最好的东西，是的，所以对我来说这

需要一段时间，

自从我停止写 上一张专辑

，发生了很多事情

，我从来没有真正谈论过我的

个人生活，但我写了它，是的

，这基本上就是这张专辑

的内容 问题是关于你

知道你会不会

从密苏里州的一个无畏的人那里拿一张你未发行的歌曲的CD，

但我的意思是

那些没有成为专辑的歌曲会发生什么

，你知道你会发行一些

你写的歌曲，尤其是在

你像 14 岁这样年轻的时候 15 好吧，我很

着迷于我写的最新歌曲

我对此感到非常内疚，

因为就像我最喜欢的东西总是

我写的最新的东西，但

最近我变得有点多了

有自我意识，因为我有这首歌是

我 16 岁时写的，它叫做

sparks fly，我在几个

节目中播放了这首歌，

当你知道我什么时候在

40 和 50 人的人群中演奏时

看到这么多人出现让我很兴奋，我

播放了几次

，它在互联网上出现了 所以我

回去了，我重新审视了它，

我重写了一些 东西并更新了它

，当我们把它作为单曲发行时，

它是我们唱片中上升最快的歌曲之一，

所以

它教会了我一个关于旧

东西

可能足够好的教训

新项目 是的 我敢肯定有

很多人很想听到

这些东西 让我们继续

一些发行歌曲 这是

来自 cookie 13 cupcake 的问题 这是在

英国 这会很长

好吧，在你所有发行的

歌曲中，哪首歌写的时间最长，

我认为这首歌引发

了这样一个事实，即它在技术上是

在我 16 岁时开始的，并

在 2010 年以一种不同的形式出现在一张专辑中

它花了一段时间才变成它的样子，

所以我想说这可能

是我发行过的最长的发展歌曲，因为

他们中的大多数人，尤其是在

没有任何合作者的情况下写了这张全新的唱片

这一切都发生得很快，因为我很

讨厌 就像如果我没有完成一首歌

我会沉迷于它

那天晚上我不会睡觉我只会

不断编辑到我无法

专注于谈话的地步周围的每个人都很

生气因为他们 '就像

很明显你正在做一些事情，只是

完成它，这样一个人需要很

长时间才能达到它

需要很酷的地方，所以让我们谈谈

你提到这张专辑的合作作者的事情。

就

目前而言，你们都是第一次说话，但你们

经常和合作作家一起工作，

你如何决定是否要

和合作作家一起写歌，或者你是否

要自己处理好有

如果我正在为别人的项目写作，这可能会带来一堆不同的情况，这

对我来说总是令人兴奋的，就像

我喜欢设身处地为别人

着想，你知道他们

的音乐风格结合他们的

故事情节 他们觉得这样

做对我来说真的很有趣 我爱

你知道为其他人写作，

然后你知道我是否正在研究一个想法，

但有一个停止点，

我无法真正弄清楚

这支合唱的去向，或者如果

我的预感是正确的 对钩子或

类似的事情，

如果有一个明确的停止点，

我会把它带给我信任

的作家或我钦佩的作家，然后问

他们很多时候他们的想法

共同写作你知道我真的在写 和

那些甚至不演奏乐器的人相处得很好，

因为你知道

很多时候我最好的合作作家

真的很擅长提供建议，比如

你认为这门课程太长了

吗？是的，比如谢谢你，有没有人

和现在一起工作，你

可以谈论是的，你知道的，

因为我写了这么多，我不知道

什么会最终记录在案

，嗯，我永远不想说你

知道和这个人一起写的，因为

那是什么 如果它没有

记录在案，然后写给 som

其他人的项目在这种情况下，我

觉得谈论它很奇怪，因为这

就像他们的项目，所以是的，但是好的，

是的，这是一个受欢迎的很多

选票这个问题来自

密歇根的二次公式它

适合谷歌你唱歌吗 你自己在洗澡的时候听歌

是的 太棒了 太棒了

[掌声

] 你有喜欢的

地方写歌吗 不 实际上

我已经变成了你必须

适应一百万个不同的地方

来写歌 在路上，

因为我只是没有

资格说好，我必须在镇上

某个地方的某个房间里，

你必须知道一种

色调，而且那里必须有智能

水 你知道，就像

你永远不会在任何地方超过

两秒半，所以你知道我

在机场的浴室里用

纸巾写过歌

点哦，它没有 出来吧，

哦，你知道在公共汽车铺位你会

在半夜醒来，你

会有这个想法，然后你写它

，你会在凌晨 4:00 起床，否则你知道我

会被吵醒 一直被歌曲创意所

吸引，就像我醒来一样，

我就像哦，太好了，因为我知道我

不会忘记我不会在早上记得它，

所以你必须录制它，

然后就是这整个 你

检查你的手机，就像在喃喃自语

，你不明白你

当时认为这很好，是的，

实际上我们谷歌员工的一个问题是关于

你在手机中录制歌曲

是你经常做的事情

是的 想法总是会出现在我的手机里，

因为它里面有很棒的录音功能

，你知道，这

就像你随时随地都可以写

，这对我来说真的很有趣，

因为有时我会走进酒店

房间，我 就像我来过这里一样 我在

这里写回 12 月 就像这

很有趣因为 你有这些

在世界各地写歌的回忆，是的，

很酷，所以我知道你的很多歌曲都是

非常个人化的歌曲，而且你的很多

歌迷都对这些东西非常感兴趣，

但这首来自

南佛罗里达州的 Michaela K 那个人让

你在约会之前不要写一首关于他的歌，

而不是在这段关系的那个阶段，

因为那时他们

认为你知道我永远不会有任何

理由阅读关于他们的歌曲，

然后就是 当他们

开始的时候你

知道的 你

我喜欢是的，我是一个大人物

，这是一段关系中

你必须拥有的一点，这

是我告诉她不要写一

首关于我的歌的部分，是的，你会

认为他们会决定

在约会之前或在我们

成为情侣之前或在这一切之前问我之前 事情

发生了，但

它只会发生在他身上，只有他才会想到

，当他想到

这不会是一首好歌时，他才会想到

，你总是写你认识的

人，你认识的人是的，因为我觉得

就像在歌曲中一样，当歌曲是

一个故事并且故事发展时

，我喜欢它

put out 叫做 15，是

关于我高中一年级的

，它记录了我最好的朋友

阿比盖尔和我，以及

我们在学习的课程中度过高中一年级的方式，

这就是我的方式 喜欢讲一个

故事是从

真正知道你在说什么

和知道你来自哪里的角度来看，

因为你在那里是的，所以让

我们看另一个视频，我们的第一个

视频问题，这个来自

克利夫兰 ○ 嗨，让我们开始吧，

嘿，泰勒，我有一个问题要问你

在舞台

上哽咽或者当你在舞台上

时你在说什么

表演我的节目，因为这些都是

关于我

生活中的人的歌曲，其中很多人

已经不在我的生活中了，你知道

有时它会以

正确的方式打击你

强烈打击你 如果你

在 20,000 人面前没关系 它打击你

，你知道

的 这首歌我

就像不能停止微笑因为我

在世界上最喜欢的声音是苏

成千上万的人同时尖叫

，这是一个非常棒的声音

，所以我完全感受到了所有的

悲伤、沮丧、愤怒和

伤害，然后人群开始尖叫

，然后

世界上的一切都

很好，我们会的 稍后谈谈巡演和

其中的一些事情 我想

再问一个关于

歌曲创作的 Google 员工问题，那是

你之前谈到的那个过程，

这些年来发生了变化，

因为你知道你已经长大了 很多

，每个人都听说你

长大了，是的，我认为它

真的长大了 这条路

在你知道之前，我认为我

一直首先是一名作家

曾经我总是想走向不同的

方向，从不重复自己，所以作为

一名作家，我认为我一直

希望我的音乐会不断

变化，因为你永远不想

制作同一张专辑两次同样的歌曲两次

，你知道 我最大的希望是

，随着我的成长，

我的歌迷会和我一起成长，随着我的

改变和生活的改变，我的音乐也会

改变，所以祝我好运，

让我们多谈谈你的歌迷

这是来自加拿大的问题 来自

YouTube 嗯，这是

粉丝为了吸引你的注意力而做过的最有趣的事情

，最近有很多

这样的事情，因为我们有一个叫做

茶会室的东西，你知道我

在演出前有四五个见面和打招呼，

但是 演出结束后会有一个

惊喜

的见面会

在秒

我的一个音乐视频中的一些荒谬的疯狂服装，或者

只是知道每一个单词，我们一直

在尖叫，好像

人们因为不同的原因被选中，

但最近很疯狂，

因为很多人一直在走

服装路线 真的，所以我们会小心

，就像我的吉他手

向我靠过来那个女孩穿得

像只鸡，我想，就像我

试图找到意义我不知道

为什么，但你知道我们 看看外面

，就像一个圣诞老人，

那些就像胶带一样，他们的

整个身体都用霓虹胶带包裹着，或者

那些喜欢在自己周围制作巨型纸杯蛋糕的

人，他们就像

他们这么大，或者那些拥有 就像

从卑鄙的视频中打扮或

类似的东西，但

只有这些，就像女孩

打扮得像小丑

和海星一样，我们就像我不知道

为什么，但我喜欢它，所以有

有很多服装的

东西 在最近的巡演中，所以如果你

环顾四周，你会看到有人

打扮成一头巨牛，你不知道为什么

我们也不知道为什么，但现在很

受欢迎，这是一个我喜欢

来自多伦多

另一个加拿大的 swift 问题有没有一个粉丝

让你哭泣是的，

你知道，

无论我看到多少次

癌症小孩，这都不会好起来，就像

有一个

你从来没有习惯过

不理会它，然后说，哦，好吧，

还有一个孩子快死

了

然后一年后你来了，

你就像嘿，Lexi，你好吗

他就像我做得很好，然后

他们你是她的父母更新你

，然后一年半后你来了

她不在那里，所以

是的，是的，你有全世界的粉丝

所有不同年龄和

类型的人，你知道当你年轻的

时候，你是否认为会有其他的

职业道路，所以你会接受

你可能不会以这种方式结束

是的，我的意思是，从我还是个

小孩的时候开始 我

八岁时，我父亲一直告诉我要

存钱或投资公用事业，

因为我父亲是一名股票经纪人，他

生活和呼吸它我的意思是他就像

我父亲对他所做的事情充满热情

我

对音乐充满热情，这个人

因为他喜欢做股票经纪人而生活，

任何与他交谈的人都喜欢

在前五分钟谈论我，

然后就像说你

在投资什么一样好 我的意思是这

就像他喜欢它一样，所以我

想我八岁的时候不知道股票经纪人

是什么，但我会

告诉大家这就是

我要成为的样子，就像你知道的那样，就像

你首先知道的那样 上学的一天，他们

就像这样，你怎么办

你们长大后都想成为，每个人都想

成为一名宇航员，或者我想成为一名

芭蕾舞演员 对他的工作如此热情，

我只是看到他有多高兴，我

只是想我可以

像泰勒斯威夫特大宗商品交易员那样

做股票 我

之前提到过，你在 YouTube 上的音乐视频

已经被观看了超过 50

亿次，你

最喜欢制作什么音乐视频，为什么

那是来自伦敦的 Sophie Carrie 我

最喜欢制作的音乐视频，嗯，好吧，

我爱我爱 用我的视频制作视频

，因为它处理了

整个故事情节，就像有

倒叙和快进，

还有一群小孩在

现场，他们很有趣，他们让它变得

很有趣，因为有很多

围坐和 在片场等待，

我们在缅因州，所以我们围坐

在海滩上等待，所以

突然之间，你只是和十个孩子一起玩

，他们就像

互相摔跤，扔沙子，喜欢

玩接球 它只是让

整个事情变得更加有趣，所以我认为

这是我最喜欢做的一个，是的

，如果有任何很酷的地点或

任何这些视频中的任何内容，

是的，我们去了肯纳邦克波特缅因州

，这是我

一直以来的这个小镇 梦想去

那里拍摄一段视频，这真是太棒了

，这是这个沿海小镇，

真的很棒，我喜欢它，是的，所以

让我们谈谈这次旅行，

你正在大声说出来，

或者非常有名 你已经完成了一些非常

酷的惊喜二重唱

你也做了一些非常经典的你几乎每晚都会

翻唱一些经典歌曲

你如何

选择你最终会做的翻唱

演唱会好我是我

上网，我只是有点像谷歌，喜欢

某个地区的著名音乐家，我只是挑选了我

最喜欢的，因为你知道我

喜欢过很多不同类型的音乐

，我从来没有真正成为约翰

就我所

听的内容而言，总是有我最喜欢的一首

来自某个地区的歌曲，而且你知道

每晚都像一些这样的歌曲真的很有趣，

就像你在加利福尼亚知道的那样，我确实喜欢

只有海滩男孩才知道的上帝

然后是 Gwen Stefani 的甜蜜逃亡，

感觉真的很有趣，

因为在原声布景中只有我和我的吉他

，你可以

做任何事情，因为只有你和你的

乐器，这是演出的一个非常自发的

部分，是的，有你 做过任何

特别不寻常的事情是的，

你知道当我说唱时，这有点不寻常

像我一样

想我们在密歇根，我刚

开始就像我开始在

声学上迷失自我，我刚

开始就像你一样，每个人

都喜欢发生的事情这

真的很奇怪，但是我只是喜欢一

首很棒的歌我不在乎 它所属的流派

我不在乎它是否

与人们认为的完全相反 你

知道乡村音乐 我只是喜欢

一首很棒的歌

表演，嗯，我真的比

复仇更喜欢这是专辑中的一首歌，

现在讲，它是关于一个女孩

偷走了我的男朋友，我很生气，我

写了一首歌关于它

，嗯，我们这样做就像它只是

愤怒和愤怒 很有趣，就像我们

有一座

从天花板上掉下来的巨大桥，我和我的

两个备用歌手都在桥上

，就像把头发甩来甩去，

头撞着头，所以这真的很

有趣，对我来说他们 他们

都是真实的 我认为亲爱的约翰有一个有趣的

回报，嗯，如果你去看演出，我

真的很喜欢唱歌，因为

最后它得到了这个，你知道最后是 pyro 填充的

回报，

你会说那是两首歌，

让人群去 大多数人或他们的

其他人我会说你知道你必须

来参加一场演出，因为

在整个演出过程中，人群真的有点刺耳，

他们非常棒，就像很难

判断哪个是那个时刻 不，

它们是最响亮的，因为它们一直

都很响亮 这是一个

有趣的问题 这是来自

田纳西州邓拉普的 Ali Law 你似乎是

那种会为他们的吉他

命名的人你会给你的吉他命名吗？

他们的名字

我看起来确实是那种人，但我

还没做过 它是蓝色的

，它有锦鲤 我在

脖子上游泳，就像镶嵌一样

，它很漂亮，是鲍勃泰勒在

我 18 岁生日时送给我的

哦，哇，所以我记得我第一次

喜欢打开这个吉他盒，我

就像有吉他一样

这把华丽的吉他，这就是

我记得的，然后

是我弹奏的这把闪闪发光的吉他，上面有

数百个小水晶

，看起来我们是特制的

，但实际上我们只是把它们粘在上面，哦，

是的，而且 有时小家伙

会掉下来，所以我们必须

用镊子粘上更多胶水，所以

这总是让我对此

感到沮丧，因为就像每个人都喜欢

你的吉他是在哪里特制的

我就像强力胶一样

多少 演出中使用的许多吉他只有

那些你经历过的好，嗯，我

是一个奇怪的声音，我刚发出的声音很

奇怪，对不起

，第一个是电动的，第二个

是原声 koa，然后是 12

弦，然后是 蓝色的锦鲤鱼

一个，然后有四五个

是的

很多关于当你不表演时你在做什么的问题，

除了像你一样写歌之外，你在演出间隙

，所以你知道我猜第一个

问题是

你喜欢看什么电影 我

看很多电视，就像很多电视一样，

我最喜欢的是犯罪节目

，它开始的地方，你知道你

不能错过第一个场景，否则你会

错过这个犯罪现场的发现

，然后你 知道

这一切的曲折

我喜欢 CSI 法律和秩序 SVU 没有

踪迹

NCIS 锁定就像很好我只是

真的害怕惹上麻烦

你不

知道那是谁看着他的锁定

实际上是泰勒斯威夫特是的

真棒

不不，但也是问题之一

我们得到的帽子是关于

你在空闲时间读了

什么书哦主要是

历史 在

我们所在的一个特定城市，

最近我读了很多

书，比如约翰亚当斯和亚伯拉罕

林肯，我读了这本 750 页的

书，叫做肯尼迪妇女，它的

历史可以追溯到

第一个肯尼迪的血统

在船上从爱尔兰遇到的女人，喜欢

1860 年代，这只是这本疯狂

有趣的读物，所以这就是我

最近一直在读的东西我有点沉迷

于历史是的，让我们再谈谈书

实际上，我们从听众中的一位未来的谷歌人那里得到了

关于你如何在 11 岁时写小说的信息

我

14 不等你更年轻 我

喜欢 13 我认为青少年是的，但我确实

是我 我有很多不同吗 耳鼻喉科

顿悟我总是有不同的

想法，就像你知道这将是

一个好主意，有一个夏天，我

在岸边，我们曾经

在新泽西州斯通港度过夏天，

我所有的朋友都回到了宾夕法尼亚州

， 所以我无事可做，所以

我顿悟了我要成为一名小说家

，我要写小说，这

将是我的职业道路，所以我会

写这本书的不同章节

并将它们寄回给我的朋友 我会

用

不同的名字把它们写进书包里，但完整地

描述了他们的个性，这是

一种非常有趣的方式来度过夏天，

我的父母很沮丧，因为我

永远不会出去，我就像被

锁在这个里面 用我的电脑很少学习，

但我一直首先是一个作家

，这是我最喜欢的事情是

你如何传达一个想法或一个故事或

完全摧毁

通过文字和

正确的文字组合和整个

过程来描述一个角色或一个情况 编辑和重新编辑，

重新思考和想象，你会得到

这些小小的顿悟想法

，我认为这

就是我喜欢写小说的地方，

这就是我喜欢诗歌的地方，这

就是我喜欢写歌的地方

关于你在巡演时所做的事情这个话题，

我们有很多问题，关于

你在巡演时喜欢做什么

而不是表演，还有

其他的吗？ 你喜欢

做的事情 花时间做我喜欢做的事情 嗯，你

知道我会看很多电视

犯罪节目，是的，犯罪节目几乎就是你的

爱好清单，

所以我们这里有一个

谷歌员工的另一个问题，就是这样 作为

一个十几岁女儿的父亲，很

高兴看到扎实的歌曲创作和

硬件能够得到认可，你

对有抱负的年轻音乐家有什么建议吗？

我认为你必须爱

它胜过一切，你

必须爱它这么多人 更多理由

除了你对最终结果的想法之外，

你不会制作一张

专辑，这样你就可以把一张白金

唱片挂在你的墙上，

你不会去巡回演出，这样你就可以

把卖的东西挂起来—— 在你知道

你的卧室里竖起牌匾就像是它有很多

小垫脚石很多

人都有这样的想法，就像你

被发现然后你得到

唱片合约然后你录制歌曲

然后这首歌成为第一

然后你知道，就像从来没有

那样，就像很少那样，就像

一件事导致另一件事，又

导致另一件事，结果它有很多

死胡同，改变方向，

回去，重新种植和重新思考

，还有很多采访和策略

会议、管理会议和公关

会议以及许多与音乐无关的事情，

以至于您必须

如此热爱音乐，以至于

每晚在舞台上的一个半小时到两个小时

就值得您付出的一切

我会说

自己演奏乐器，因为它

比像卡拉OK机一样拖拉更容易，就像

你刚开始时必须提供

自己的背景音乐

一样，演奏自己的乐器要容易得多

好的

很酷 好的 所以我们

要最后一个问题 这是一个视频

问题 另一个视频问题 它

来自伊利诺伊州芝加哥 它

与

我们一直在谈论的一些问题有点不同所以

让我们滚动一下 嘿，凯拉，它选了我

有一个问题要问你

，美丽对你意味着什么我的

意思是定义你对美丽的定义

美丽在你眼中意味着什么以及我为什么

爱他我认为对我来说美丽是

真诚我认为有很多

不同 一个人可以变得

美丽的方式 你知道一个人很有趣

，以至于无论他们看起来如何，这都让他们变得美丽，

因为他们是

真诚的，或者某人真的很

情绪化，喜欢喜怒无常 深思熟虑

和坚忍，但这让他们变得美丽，

因为他们是真诚的，或者

你看着人群，你会看到

一个人很开心，他们

笑得合不拢嘴，真诚流露出

来 我认为这就是让

某人美丽的原因，我 从来没有

觉得只有一种

美丽的方式你知道高或短

直发或卷发或其他

任何人对他们类型的定义

你知道我认为

当我遇到某人并且

他们身上有一种神奇的东西 这让他们

难以忘怀 这是因为他们是真诚

和诚实的，无论他们是谁，都那么

有趣，快乐，悲伤，你知道，经历了一段

艰难的时光，讽刺我认为，

当某人真正真诚时，这些性格特征

让他们变得美丽酷我 认为这是

一个很好的结束，因为这

是一个 YouTube 采访有
