"I purchased the original Fearless album when it was first released,so I had already heard the songs on the CD.Once the Platinum Edition was released,I purchased it and it came with extra songs and DVD content.It was well worth the money to purchase this album again especially if you are a die-hard fan of Taylor Swift as I am!"

Platinum indeed

"Like many, I'm wary when albums are rereleased. Usually, they'll just add a few remixes, ask for more money, and call it a day. Taylor Swift apparently knows better.



I fell in love with her version of "Untouchable" a while back and was thrilled to find it as the second track. "Jump Then Fall" is simple, catchy, and fun, while "Superstar" and "Other Side of the Door" are age-appropriate and lets me pretend I'm about ten years younger. If only it would nix the gray hairs, too...



The original album was quite solid, with only one song that I tend to skip: "The Best Day." It's sweet, but far too saccharine for my taste. I'm partial to "Hey Stephen" and "Fearless" as easy listens, while "The Way I Loved You" shows a surprising amount of self-awareness as a girl who's learning what it means to settle...or how sometimes you really just can't figure out what you want.



This is a great crossover album, and if the samples and radio play suit you, then it's probably a smart purchase. I'll agree with many other reviewers that Taylor's voice itself is mediocre, but she doesn't try to out-sing her range, and her songwriting skills make up for limited vocals and occasional pitchiness."
