    I’ve found that a lot of her rep to lover era performances of her older songs have a prominent feeling that the emotions she put into the originals are long gone. But there’s something beautiful about this one. I can tell that she remembers exactly how she felt when she wrote the song, and I feel like the way she decided to communicate it is so beautifully honest. Also, props to the chorus singers. They sounded incredible.

    I was reminiscing just the other day
    While having coffee all alone and Lord, it took me away
    Back to a first-glance feeling on New York Time
    Back when you fit in my poems like a perfect rhyme
    Took off faster than a green light "Go"
    Hey, you skip the conversation when you already know
    I left a note on the door with a joke we'd made
    And that was the first day
    And darling, it was good never looking down
    And right there where we stood was holy ground
    Spinning like a girl in a brand new dress
    We had this big wide city all to ourselves
    We blocked the noise with the sound of "I need you"
    And for the first time I had something to lose
    And I guess we fell apart in the usual way
    And the story's got dust on every page
    But sometimes I wonder how you think about it now
    And I see your face in every crowd
    'Cause darling, it was good never looking down
    And right there where we stood was holy ground
    Tonight I'm gonna dance for all that we've been through
    But I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you
    Tonight I'm gonna dance like you were in this room
    But I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you
    It was good never looking down
    And right there where we stood was holy ground
    Tonight I'm gonna dance for all that we've been through
    But I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you
    Tonight I'm gonna dance like you were in this room
    But I don't wanna dance if I'm not dancing with you

She hit all the notes, she approached the melody differently depends on the lyrics, and most importantly she put emotion into it. Yeah she may not be a powerhouse vocalist, but she’s a damn good singer. Her range is getting wider as well, try to sing all 6 songs she just performed, the low notes are low and the highs are actually quite high. And she keeps improving. She’s really really great. And I just love her tone, so soothing and beautiful.

    10 Facts you probably didn’t know about Taylor Swift’s Holy Ground.
    1. The song was written by Taylor, while the production was handled by Jeff Bhasker.
    2. This lyrics begun in February 2012.
    3. In the song, Taylor is looking back at a whirl wind relationship from her past. She’s realizing just because the relationship didn’t work out, doesn’t mean it wasn’t a good memory or that it was wasted time. The memories are still safe and sacred. Just because Taylor and the guy weren’t meant to be, doesn’t mean she can’t look back fondly at the time they spent together. Every mistake is a lesson learned.
    4. She wrote this song about her first love at 18.
    5. The hidden message of the song is "When you came to the show in SD".
    6. Rumors of the song being about Jonas were fueled by his appearance at Taylor's San Diego show during the Speak Now World Tour.
    7. She played this song and "The Lucky One" for Jeff Bhasker, acoustically, in the studio, the first time he heard them.
    8. Paul Sidoti, guitarist of Taylor, says that this song is "probably the mostly the most poweful and rocking song" he has ever performed with Taylor.
    9. Amos, basist of Taylor, this song is his favorite song to perform on the RED TOUR
    10. A fan at the Nashville 1989 Secret Session asked her whta the background vocals in Holy Ground were saying and she said they were just "vocalizations to represent happiness."

    The original was perfect. Looking back fondly at a young love that came and went quickly but was amazing while it lasted. This is even more perfect. Like she’s longing to find that passion again with someone she’s been with for a really long time. So calm and tender. Her voice is stunning.
