Taylor Swift Thanksgiving Special -- Country Hound, 11/22


Fans of Taylor Swift will now have one more thing to be thankful for on Thanksgiving night, when she will have a one-hour special on NBC at 8 p.m. ET, which will follow Taylor during a slue of nine one-of-a-kind performances ranging from Central Park to on top of her tour bus in downtown Hollywood. The TV special will also be following Swift from the recording studio of her recently released album “Speak Now,” to her publicity tour and so much more.

Swift will be performing songs from her latest album, including “Sparks Fly,” “Mean,” “Mine,” “Story of Us,” “Back to December,” “Enchanted,” “Long Live,” and the title track “Speak Now.”  It is widely known that Taylor writes her own lyrics from her influences and events in life, and during this special fans will likely be able to hear Swift divulge hints and information on the inspirations behind the lyrics.

"You write about things nobody knows you went through," Swift said to The Boot. "My main focus when I'm writing a song is the person I'm writing it about, what they're going to think of it and them knowing what I feel about them. A lot of times, they don't know exactly what I felt. Somehow I feel more comfortable saying it all to them in a song ... that many more people are going to hear than if I just sent a text message! [laughs] But that's just how I feel more comfortable expressing myself."

This week, Swift will also be appearing on NBC’s “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno” on Monday and “Chelsea Lately” on the E! television network Wednesday.
