Description
Fearless is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was released on November 11, 2008, by Big Machine Records. Swift wrote most of the songs while promoting her debut studio album (2006) and opening for concert tours of other country artists. Of the 13 tracks on the standard edition, eight were solely written by Swift, and five were co-written with Liz Rose, Hillary Lindsey, Colbie Caillat, and John Rich. Making her debut as a record producer, Swift co-produced all songs with Nathan Chapman.
Described by Swift as an expansion of the country sound of her debut album, Fearless is a country pop record with elements of crossover pop that critics found appealing to a broad audience. Its production incorporates acoustic instruments such as banjo, fiddle, and guitar. Inspired by Swift's feelings ensued from personal romantic relationships as a teenager, the lyrics explore facets of love, from infatuation to heartbreak. The title refers to what Swift described as the mutual theme of all songs, as they altogether depict her courage to embrace the complexities of love.
After the album's release, Swift embarked on the Fearless Tour, which ran from April 2009 to June 2010 and grossed $66.5 million. Five songs were released as singles: "Love Story", "You Belong with Me", "White Horse", "Fifteen", and "Fearless". A commercial success, the album catapulted Swift to mainstream prominence. In the United States, it spent 11 weeks atop the Billboard 200, was the best-selling album of 2009, and was certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America for 10 million album-equivalent units. It topped the album charts of Canada and New Zealand and peaked within the top five on the album charts of Australia, Norway, and the United Kingdom. With 12 million copies sold worldwide, it is one of the best-selling albums of the 21st century.
The album received generally positive reviews from critics, who commended Swift's storytelling craftsmanship through her songwriting. While some critics praised Swift's ability in creating radio-friendly melodies, others dismissed the production as generic. The most awarded album in the history of country music, Fearless won Album of the Year at the Grammys, the Country Music Association Awards, and the Academy of Country Music Awards. The 2010 Grammy for Album of the Year made Swift (then 20 years old) the youngest artist to win the award at the time, a record that lasted until 2020. The re-recorded issue of the album, Fearless (Taylor's Version), is slated for release on April 9, 2021.
