Kickass, the doorstop dog, notes the keeper’s less than stellar record of relating to female singers beginning with Dale Evans, including Kate Smith and moving on from the Andrews Sisters to Billie Holiday and Sarah Vaughn. Somewhere when the pop musical focus went from soothing sentimentality to bang-bang hard drumming, the keeper’s preference for female singers went with the likes of Dolly and June Carter Cash and Emmy Lou and their country singer contemporaries.
Now in a late development, the keeper finds it obligatory to reactivate his female singer preference to include Taylor Swift, and to do so with Phyllis’s approval and enthusiasm, by posting the following: “I LOVE TAYLOR SWIFT.”
A contrary sentiment stating “I Hate Taylor Swift” has been expressed elsewhere in an attempt to make political hay.
The keeper would never stoop to such a low, and he repeats here that his musical conscience for female singers has been reawakened and he repeats: “I LOVE TAYLOR SWIFT” as she sings her latest hit: “For all the Girls You Loved Before.”
