Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She is known for narrative songs about her personal life, which have received widespread media coverage. At age 14, Swift became the youngest artist signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house and, at 15, she signed her first record deal.
Her 2006 eponymous debut album was the longest-charting album of the 2000s in the US. Its third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008.
Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", it became the US' best-selling album of 2009 and was certified diamond in the US. The album won four Grammy Awards, and Swift became the youngest Album of the Year winner.

I thought that someone may have took it in by mistake so checked our CCTV and found out that the bin lorry had taken it," said one of the pair."And now we are told we have to wait up to six weeks for a new one - they don’t take black bags usually, even if they’re at the side of the bin."But after speaking to the council they advised us that we are allowed to put bin bags out so long as it’s only a small number."Thankfully we don’t have too much waste as we recycle but it’s us having to chase the council for their doing."While new homes get one green bin for free, Stockton Council's website states it aims to deliver them within "four to six weeks of a request being made" - while noting that is subject to availability.And if a bin is "lost, stolen or damaged" a replacement
