Starlight (Taylor Swift Song)
"Starlight" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift for her fourth studio album, ''Red'' (2012). She was inspired to write the song by the teenage romance of Ethel Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy: the lyrics narrate a summer romance in 1945 and depict two characters intruding a yacht club party. Produced by Swift, Nathan Chapman, and Dann Huff, "Starlight" is a dance-pop song with elements of country pop and trance music. Music critics generally praised the narrative songwriting of "Starlight" and its catchy sound, although reviews have generally regarded it as a lesser entry in Swift's discography. Some critics remarked that the third-person perspective was a showcase of her expanding artistry beyond her usual autobiographical songs. "Starlight" peaked at number 80 on the Canadian Hot 100 and number 5 on the Bubbling Under Hot 100. Swift used "Starlight" in a commercial for her fragrance in 2013. Following a 2019 dispute over Swift's back catalog, she re-rec ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Catchy
Catchiness is how easy it is for a song, tune, or phrase to be recalled. It is often taken into account when writing songs, catchphrases, advertising slogans, jingles etc. Alternatively, it can be defined as how difficult it is for one to forget it. Songs that embody high levels of remembrance or catchiness are referred to as "catchy songs" or "earworms". While it is hard to scientifically explain what makes a song catchy, there are many documented techniques that recur throughout catchy music, such as repetition, hooks and alliteration. ''Selling Sounds: The Commercial Revolution in American Music'' says that "although there was no definition for what made a song catchy, all the songwriting guides agreed that simplicity and familiarity were vital".

Re-recording (music)
A re-recording is a recording produced following a new performance of a work of music. This is most commonly, but not exclusively, by a popular artist or group. It differs from a reissue, which involves a second or subsequent release of a previously-recorded piece of music. Re-recordings are often produced decades after the original recordings were released, usually under contract terms more favorable to the artists. This is especially common among acts who originally agreed to contracts that would be considered unfair and exploitative today. When re-recordings are issued under newer contracts, artists can collect far higher royalties for use in films, commercials, and movie trailers. Other artists re-record their work for artistic reasons. Jeff Lynne of the Electric Light Orchestra released a solo best-of album with new versions of previous hits like " Mr. Blue Sky", the original of which Lynne described as " otquite how I meant it". Some artists, such as Def Leppard and Taylor Sw ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
