So TayTay won album of the year

20. Yeah, don't get me wrong, although I don't know her music

I love Taylor Swift, her energy, her positivity, her activism. She seems like a genuinely great person, but when I listen to her lyrics I’m like, meh? Can’t hold a candle to Joni. Just a couple quick grabs off the web:

Taylor: “ The skeletons in both our closets plotted hard to f--- this up”

Joni: “ Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
And I would still be on my feet”

Taylor: “ Lovelorn and nobody knows / Love thorns all over this rose / I'll pay the price, you won't"

Joni: “ Downtown
My darling dime store thief
In the War of Independence
Rock 'n Roll rang as sweet as victory
Under neon signs
A girl was in bloom
And a woman was fading
In a suburban room”

(From “In France They Kiss on Main Street”). My God, I hated to stop after one verse! That entire song is like a stream of conscious meditation on her wild young rock and roll years. And the music it’s set to!

Taylors got talent, no doubt, but Joni is the Queen, and always will be!
