2006 - 2007 | The Introduction Of The Alleged Muses
Disclaimer before we begin: I HIGHLY doubt she dated any of these people, but it's still important context (particularly surrounding the Jake Owen stuff).
Mid 2006
Taylor meets Emily Por prior to the release of her debut album.
Shortly after they begin touring together.
They sleep in a tour bus with Taylor's mother, Andrea.
October 31st, 2006
Taylor writes a blog post detailing her interaction with country musician, Jake Owen.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
November 2006
Taylor writes Sparks Fly OG with some modified lyrics.
Tumblr media
In the album booklet, the words "Portland Oregon," are coded in the lyrics.
Portland Oregon is where she met Jake.
This, along with other apparent lyrical references to him/her post have led people to believe he is the song's muse.
December 2006
Taylor meets Liz Huett in a Meet & Greet line after a performance and gives her advice about her aspiring music career, the most notable being that if she wants to make it, she has to move to Nashville (which Liz does a few years later).
Early/mid 2007
Taylor performs Sparks Fly.
youtube
Whether he legitimately inspired the song is unknown, though he has recently stated he finds the rumours "funny".
January 12th, 2007
Taylor gushes about how great being on tour with George Strait is on her Myspace and mentions Emily.
January 17th
Taylor posts to Myspace and mentions filming the TOMG music video with Emily, and a bunch of other people.
February 12th
Taylor writes on her Myspace about her, Megan (???), and Emily obsessively watching Grey's Anatomy.
Summer 2007
Taylor (and Emily. And other people) takes a trip to the Grand Canyon.
Tumblr media
Taylor posts a sappy video about how great Emily is which is very...
Tumblr media
July 31st
Taylor and Liz meet AGAIN at a Meet and Greet line and Liz uploads this photo.
Tumblr media
December 2007
Taylor Swift meets Julianne Hough at a Christmas Party.
Tumblr media
December 5th
Taylor writes Breathe with Colbie Caillat.
Based on Taylor's explanation of the song, it is seemingly about Emily.
Tumblr media
December 13th
Emily attends Taylor's 18th birthday party.
Tumblr media
It is around this time that Emily is fired/leaves willingly to pursue a law career (though the song hints towards fired).
If you want a more detailed breakdown of their interactions throughout 2006-2007 (x).
One potential reason for her quick departure, and the reason why I'm mentioning her in the first place, is that she was *allegedly* seen... relieving Taylor.
Tumblr media
Now, for the love of God, I hope that isn't true since Taylor was a minor at the time and Emily was very much not - but, some people believe she is the "real" dear john/wcs muse, so she's worth a mention.
Disclaimer: I am mentioning these people because they are POTENTIALLY Speak Now muses - of course, that can't be confirmed, but I am trying to provide all the information out there so that you may come to your own conclusions.
They are (I think) the only people we'll be discussing that Taylor has not been confirmed to have been in a relationship with, so keep that in mind.
However, I will preface by saying that I don't think Emily inspired anything from Speak Now. I truly believe her greatest contributions to the Taylore™️ are Breathe, that gayass video, and the aforementioned gay photo.

David Browne at Rolling Stone:
OVER THE LAST few years, the Gulf Coast Jam, a multi-day concert blowout held every spring in Panama City Beach, Florida, has become one of country music’s leading festivals, pulling in headliners like Miranda Lambert, Luke Bryan, Florida Georgia Line, Kane Brown, and Kenny Chesney. But recently, festival producer Rendy Lovelady has noticed something unusual backstage. “Ten or 15 years ago, everybody would sit in a circle around the table, pull out their guitars and start singing old country songs,” he says. “There was a lot of camaraderie. Whereas now, the camaraderie has definitely lessened. They tend to stay in their own community.” Part of Lovelady wonders if it’s the lingering after-effects of Covid-19, which forced touring performers to interact as little as possible with anyone outside their circle. But it’s also possible that the drop-off in backstage hangtime is a sign of something else: the national culture wars seeping into the traditionally close-knit country community, a space where artists often take pains to refer to their peers as “my good buddy” or compliment one another.
From less personal interaction backstage to public online feuds, country music is slowly being pulled into the same battles that have infiltrated nearly every aspect of American life and entertainment. “It really is weird right now,” says one leading country manager, who spoke on the condition of anonymity given the sensitivity of the moment. “Country music has aways been this kind of neighborhood where everyone gets along. We had everyone’s back. But it doesn’t feel that way anymore. The heels are dug in more than ever. It’s pretty heavy.” The manager has also witnessed the same backstage chilliness that Lovelady recounts. However, he says it is unquestioningly due to opposing political ideologies and beliefs. “I’ve always enjoyed seeing people in the hallways backstage,” he says. “But it’s not like that. You tend to avoid people, because everyone talks politics backstage. Everyone used to leave their dressing room doors open. The doors are shut now.”
The major signs that Nashville is visibly fracturing have all happened fairly recently. In August of last year, country and alt-pop singer Cassadee Pope, and then Maren Morris, took Jason Aldean’s wife Brittany to task for making seemingly transphobic comments. (“I’d really like to thank my parents for not changing my gender when I went through my tomboy phase,” Brittany Aldean posted.) This summer, her husband’s song “Try That in a Small Town,” and especially its controversial music video, led to Americana songwriter Jason Isbell tweeting, “Dare Aldean to write his next single himself. That’s what we try in my small town.” On X (the social media site formerly known as Twitter), Jake Owen, a mainstream country singer, seemed to side with Aldean. He clapped back at Isbell by writing in part, “Jason, you’re always the first to get behind your keyboard and spout off with this stupid shit.” (He since posted that he “came in hot on the conversation because I’m passionate about” songwriters.) The public tiffs also included Zach Bryan, whose duet with Kacey Musgraves “I Remember Everything” is on track to be the Number One song in the nation, taking a shot in April at country acts “insulting transgender people.” The comment was prompted by veteran Travis Tritt’s tweet that he would be “deleting all Anheuser-Busch products from my tour hospitality rider” following a Bud Light promotion that featured transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. Bryan, who said that he wasn’t aiming directly at Tritt, later talked it out in person with the Nineties star at a music festival in Texas, with Bryan calling Tritt “a good guy” and Tritt saying, “So glad we had a chance to chat, Zach.”
Although these feuds haven’t dominated the genre, they also haven’t gone unnoticed. “Like all industries, we’re not immune from the external pressures and the world at large,” says R.J. Romeo, president of the Romeo Entertainment Group, a leading talent agency that books country acts. “So naturally, there’s more divisiveness in the country now than ever before. That’s going to show up in opinions on music and everything.” The history of country music hasn’t been without its share of fights and rumbles; ask anyone who’s worked on an awards show or at a festival and you’ll hear tales of artists grumbling about their peers’ egos, sales figures, or place on the bill. In 2013, Zac Brown made waves when he called Luke Bryan’s song “That’s My Kind of Night” the “worst song I’ve ever heard.” They later hammed it up and hugged it out on live TV at the CMA Awards.
Public quarrels over politics, meanwhile, have been as rare as synthesizer solos in the genre. The then-Dixie Chicks’ feud with Toby Keith, which started when Chicks singer Natalie Maines criticized one of Keith’s songs in a 2002 interview and caught fire after Maines dissed George W. Bush onstage in the U.K. over the 2003 Iraq invasion, was one of the few times in recent memory when open warfare broke out among country artists over political matters. Such quarrels may become more common. “With everything heating up with the presidential race, people are beginning to have very distinct opinions,” Lovelady says. And the shift, involving country stars of different generations and accelerated by social media, has been jarring for longtime observers. Country acts, Romeo says, “all go through media training, and they’re usually very diplomatic or middle of the road with a lot of their responses. But I’ve seen more artists come out of what we call ‘the artist bubble’ and show more of their true self, you could say — or their less polished self.”
Rolling Stone explores how the culture wars are roiling the once-tightknit community of country music fans.

Jake Owen - Loose Cannon
So today on the MSR (Midnight Star Review), I would like to talk about the latest album from Country Music Singer Jake Owen. This new album is titled "Loose cannon" and was originally released digitally on June 23rd, 2023, and a physical copy was available on Friday October 21st, 2023. But before we dive into the new 16 track album, let's talk about the career of Jake for a little bit before.
Jake has had big hits with songs like "Down to the Honkytonk", "Made for you", & "Anywhere with you. Jake also had songs like "Barefoot blue jean night", "Beachin'", & "American Country love song. Jake has scored 4 number ones on my weekly list MSR (Midnight Star Report). My MSR combines both CMT (Country Music Television), the Billboard Country Music Airplay Charts, & even myself. The list used to include GAC (Great American Country) until the list officially retired at the end of 2018. Now back to the new project up next.
The current single is "On the boat again", and other songs you should check out are "Go getter", & "Hearts and habits is a stand out track in my opinion. Also check out songs like "When it all shakes out", "Hopeless", & "It don't, he won't and you do". He pays tribute to the Andy Griffith show intro with "Nothing". More songs you should listen to are "Somewhere south with rum", "The ending", & the title track "Loose cannon". Jake had co-writting help from Willie Nelson, Walker Hayes, Devin Dawson, & Jordan Davis. Let's see the rest of the track list now.
Track list.
Hot truck beer.
Go getter.
Solo solo.
On the boat again.
Hearts and habits.
When it all shakes out.
Hope less.
It don't, He won't and you do.
Friends don't let friends.
Boy in the Chevrolet.
Shrank.
Nothing.
Somewhere south with Rum.
The ending.
Hey can I buy a beer.
Loose cannon.
And that's a wrap for the track list. And on the MSR (Midnight Star Review), I would give this new album a 4.5 out of 5 stars. I am not a fan of the digital albums, so with Jake deciding to make a CD that didn't have to get digitally. Another well-rounded album from Jake with a lot of songs that I had to highlight. Thanks for taking the time to read this review. See ya all next time.

Casee Allen Teams Up with Neal McCoy for New Single, Preps for MotorTrend Broadcast
Casee Allen Teams Up with Neal McCoy for New Single, Preps for MotorTrend Broadcast
Not many country singers can say that they ended up in the studio and on stage with the recording artist who inspired them as a child, but Casee Allen has done just that. Recording a new single, “I Blame It All on My Roots,” with country star Neal McCoy (“Wink,” “The Shake”), Allen has been able to work with the man whose kindness towards him in his elementary school days helped foster his love…

Enemies to lovers, but he never hates you. He's so in love with you it hurts. He's never rude to you, just a little arrogant, teasing, and flirtatious. He wants you to be only his. He scares away every boy who has the audacity to be near you. He snarls at every girl who tries to approach him, so you wouldn't think that he has an interest in anyone but you. You, on the other hand, are boiling with anger. This bastard. This jerk. How dare he make your heart beats faster. How dare he make you blush after some stupid remark about your appearance. How dare he stand here so tall, so strong, so handsome, so sexy, and look at you with such love and adoration. How dare he kiss you with such passion after another fight and make an absolute mess of you. How dare he come to your apartment in the middle of the night. How dare he make love to you, worship you, make you scream his stupid name. How dare he stay with you and make you the best breakfast in the morning. How dare he make you so happy and loved that from now on, you feel safe only in his arms.
Windbreaker: Sangho Choi, Wooin, Hajun (Joker), Owen Knight, Vinny Hong, Hwangyeon Choi, Hyeok Gwon, Harry Shepherd, Ryohei
Lookism: Vin Jin, Jake Kim, Samuel Seo, Han Sinu, Olly Wang, Xiaolong, Kim Goo, Gun Park, Ma Taesoo, Hudson Ahn, Seongji Yuk
