In 2009 when Taylor Swift toured Australia she took time out to join us for an early edition of her story at Noise11.
2009 Taylor is a lot like 2024 Taylor. She was humble at the start and still is.
In the 2009 Noise11 Taylor Swift interview Taylor talked about her early global success. It’s been amazing,” she said. “It is so crazy to think that my music is being played on all these different continents. Its’ so cool”.
The younger Taylor surprised herself when an album like ‘Fearless’ was bigger than U2 or Alicia Keys at the time. “When I put out an album I never expect it is going to go to number one and stay there forever,” Taylor tells Noise11.com. “It’s so cool that the fans have done this me. It’s up to them to buy albums”.
Taylor was also quick to point out the years of hard work at band like U2 had put in. I feel like it’s a big year for me but do I put myself in the same league as U2? Absolutely not,” she said. “There are so many people who have been working this so much longer than me, like the Bonos of the world who I am always going to have up there on a pedestal but to be up there on a list with them makes my year. I feel like I have lucked out and had the most amazing year of my life this year.
