Taylor Swift’s new album, “Red,” has hit No. 1 in 31 countries since its release on Oct. 22, taking over the iPods and car stereos of teenage girls all over the world.

For the last six years, I’ve been a devoted fan of all things Taylor Swift, purchasing all her songs, and listening to each album on repeat for days, weeks, and even months.

I’ve gone through high school belting out her songs in public and dancing around to them in the comfort of my own room, singing them in the shower and using her lyrics on a daily basis while talking to my friends.

Most of Swift’s old songs have had the same acoustic and soft country feel, but “Red” is unlike any of her other albums, giving her fans something new to love.

Many people may not like this album because of its new vibe and different sound, but they must realize that she isn’t the young, innocent 15-year-old girl she was at the time her first album, “Taylor Swift,” was released.

“Red” is noticeably different, but it’s very her. It’s the same Swift with a spunky attitude.

“Red” is all about finding a new perspective for love and life and accepting what happens, instead of crying about it or blaming other people.

Before the release of the entire album, Swift released several of her songs as singles, including “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” “Begin Again,” “Red” and “Ronan,” a special song for a young boy who passed away from cancer.

These singles reached No. 1 in a matter of hours, as every teenage girl sat waiting anxiously until midnight to buy the tracks on iTunes.

Some of her upbeat songs, such as “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” “I Knew You Were Trouble,” “Starlight” and “22,” will make listeners want to get up and dance around the room and jump up and down.  This isn’t how Taylor Swift’s music has ever been classified.

Her music has changed and transformed into an eclectic sound, but the best part is realizing that a lot of her songs have stayed in the same style.

The song “Stay Stay Stay” is quite possibly the cutest song listeners will ever hear, and may remind some people of a favorite love or friend.

It shows us as fans, the love-struck Taylor who, no matter how old she is, can be crazy about a guy, just like all teenage girls.

Along with her different sound, Swift also features duets with Ed Sheeran and Gary Lightbody of Snow Patrol on this new album.

The songs “Everything Has Changed” and “The Last Time” have her original soft acoustic feel and the harmonies which makes it more fun to listen to.

Along with these duets, there are many songs that have stayed in her acoustic, country style, such as “Treacherous,” “Begin Again,” “I Almost Do,” and “Sad Beautiful Tragic,” which will bring fans back to memories of her first few albums.

These are songs that every girl can relate to at least once in her life and love until the end of time.

As a whole, “Red” is the album high school girls will love the most, as it resonates with those who have experienced broken hearts or loves that didn’t last forever.

This album is relatable to students because it signifies ending a relationship, taking risks, and feeling free and careless.

Swift has done it again, creating a record that all girls can fall in love with and play in their car to school.

I absolutely love this new album and it’s playing in my car regardless of where I’m going and on my iPhone while I do homework, sleep and study.

The best part about all of Swift’s songs is that she writes and sings what’s written in every girl’s diary and gives everyone something to relate to, from “Fifteen” to “Speak Now” on her previous albums and to “22” on her new album.

She’s an average girl with an extraordinary life who knows what girls all over the world are dealing with. She knows how to connect with teenagers on a level that doesn’t require her to learn hundreds of different languages.

I give “Red” a rating of 4 out of 4 guitars.
