Are You a Swifty?

Many of the negative comments remind me of the comments made about Joni, Dylan, and even Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue! Stop being old cranky MEN and open your mind….

Is she writing music like Mozart? No. Does she sing like Stills? No. But then neither does Dylan, Clapton, Blackmore nor Alicia Keys, to name just a few.

No one ever accused Dylan of being able to sin
