| Taylor Swift opens up about heartfelt string of Top 10 hits Posted: 26 Oct 2010 12:22 AM PDT  Taylor Swift has broken Mariah Carey's record with a streak of six Top 10 hits. With her new single "Speak Now" debuting at No. 8 on Billboard's Hot 100, Taylor Swift has broken Mariah Carey's record by having six consecutive hits debut in the Top 10. Known for writing songs about people who cross her, Swift, 20, has reportedly penned tunes about ex-beau Taylor Lautner, of "Twilight" fame, and Kanye West, who famously interrupted her acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. Q: Tell me about the album. This album is about the last two years of my life. It seems like everything that happened to me and affected me emotionally was intense. Like intense joy, intense pain, intense celebration, intense loss, intense curveballs. It was a lot to process. So sometimes in the moment when you're living out these things, you don't say exactly the right things at the right time. At that point I end up walking away and thinking: "Now I know what I should have said." At that point, I go and I write a song about it. A: Q: What inspired "Back to December" (supposedly about her breakup with Taylor Lautner)? It was inspired by a lesson I learned a little too late. That's a song that's a message to a specific person. The song is what this person deserves to hear. An apology. It's a song that is very personal, and I needed to write it. A: Q: In "Mine," you sing "you've made a rebel out of a careless man's careful daughter." What did you do as the rebel? I've written about love at 14. Falling in love at 14 or 15, you jump in head first because you have no reason not to. As you experience love and you experience more relationships, you start to realize that love ends in a very painful goodbye. The more times that you experience that and witness that, the more you have an inclination to become careful and guarded.
