\"\"<\/p>\n

The Songwriters Hall of Fame is inducting some great songwriters in 2010, but Taylor Swift shouldn’t be one of them! Other songwriters who have be included this year are David Foster, Leonard Cohen and Earth, Wind and Fire. So why the hell is Taylor Swift joining those legends?<\/p>\n

I admit that Taylor has had a great couple of years in which she has won a few CMA and Grammys, but the point here is that she only 20 years of age and has only been around for a couple of years. Given her young age and the songs which blatantly reflect her innocence, is the Songwriters Hall of Fame in the States jumping the gun? Can we really group her with the likes of\u00a0 David Foster who gave us\u00a0 \u201cThe Prayer\u201d (Celine Dion\/Andrea Bocelli) and \u201cI Have Nothing\u201d (Whitney Houston) or Cohen for \u201cHallelujah?\u201d<\/p>\n
