This is sort of a, it's not a short speech.

So just, I don't want this to slip and break

She's so supportive, we all need someone like that.

I wanna first thank Billboard from the bottom of my heart

I wanna say thank you so much to Billboard

for naming me as their Woman of the Decade.

So what does it mean to be the woman of this decade?

When this decade began I was 20 years old

and I had put out my self-titled debut album when I was 16,

and then the album that would become my breakthrough album,

And I saw that there was a world of music

I saw pop stations send my songs Love Story

and You Belong With Me to number one for the first time.

And I saw that as a female in this industry,

some people will always have slight reservations about you.

Whether you deserve to be there, whether your male producer

or co-writer is the reason for your success,

I saw that people love to explain away a woman's success

in the music industry, and I saw something in me change

This was the decade when I became a mirror

Whatever they decided I couldn't do is exactly what I did.

and the best lyrical examples I can think of

are songs like Mean, Shake It Off, and Blank Space.

Basically if people had something to say about me,

I usually said something back in my own way.

And this reflect dictated more than just my lyrics.

When Fearless did win Album of the Year at the Grammys

and I did become the youngest solo artist to ever win

the award, with that win came criticism and backlash

in 2010 that I'd never experienced before

All of a sudden people had doubts about my singing voice,

was it strong enough, was I a little bit pitchy?

All of a sudden they weren't sure if I was the one

writing the songs because sometimes in the past

why this wave of harsh criticism had hit me so hard.

I believe a popular headline back then was,

A Swift Backlash, which is clever, you gotta give it to 'em.

And now I realize that this is just what happens

to a woman in music if she achieves success or power

I now have come to expect that with good news

So then I decided that I would be the only songwriter

I decided I would be what they said I couldn't be.

I wasn't quite doing right, and then the circle

would keep going on and on and rolling along

and I would keep accommodating, over-correcting,

They're saying I'm dating too much in my 20s?

Okay, okay, I'll make one about moving to New York

and deciding that really my life is more fun

Oh, they're saying my music is changing too much
