In Taylor Swift's hit 2014 album called "1989," the single track called "Shake it Off" gained worldwide attention for its catchy beat and dismissal of negativity surrounding Swift's public image. Indeed, the lyrics repeat phrases like "the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate." Compared to Swift's other songs, "Shake it Off" is unique because there is limited mention of personal romance, drama, and feelings. Rather, the song uses words and phrases related to Swift's intended actions, not her emotional state. Taylor Swift's slight use of language related to positive and negative affect demonstrate an above average example of the Emotion attribute.
