Even when it seems as though half of the music you hear these days has been processed and auto-tuned to death, the fact is that there are still plenty of artists out there with raw talent, and the best way to recognize this is to catch their live shows. 2010 was a great year for concert-goers of all tastes. Whether you like country-pop, rap, indie rock, and whether you prefer festivals, concert series or solo tours, there was something for everyone this year.

Here’s a few of our favorites…

Taylor Swift Sells More Than 1 Million Copies Of Speak Now In First Week Taylor Swift Sells More Than 1 Million Copies Of Speak Now In First Week

Taylor Swift fans must be the most loyal fans ever. That or the on-going battle with herself in regards to forgiving Kanye West, Joe Jonas, or John Mayer has sparked people’s interest enough to check her new album, Speak Now, out. Now, you already know what our stance is on the country pop singer-songwriter. We understand that there are artists like her who are taking every single feeling out of the diary and pairing it with a cute melody 14 year olds can identify with. Although we can’t say we’re the biggest fans of Ms. I’m-so-innocent-Swift, at least she’s writing her own songs. We can’t really say that for pop divas such as Britney Spears and Rihanna.

However, what we can make note of is how big of a deal her sales are this week. It’s up to you to decide whether her album is worth purchasing or even listening to, but selling a million copies since the release on October 25th is something to think about.

Taylor Swift Gets Comcast Video On Demand Deal Taylor Swift Still Names Names On New Album

We get where Taylor Swift is coming from. She’s young, she’s got emotions and the only way to help her heal is by writing songs. That diary of her has been bursting with the angst that simply needs to be expressed in an easy going pop country melody  – or two albums worth. Forgive us if we thought the young singer-songwriter lived in a fairytale (it’s only been her motif since she was 16), but apparently she’s not done pointing fingers. All the Taylor/Miley/Selena super-fans (aka all you tweens) better start gossiping because she left Joe Jonas off easy compared to what she’s done to John Mayer on her new album, Speak Now.
