Taylor Swift Does Covers, Too - Tom Petty's "American Girl"

Wednesday July 1, 2009

We all know by now that Taylor Swift is one of the top young songwriters in both the pop and country music worlds. However, she is no slouch at interpreting the songs of others either. A live version of Tom Petty's classic "American Girl" is now being released as a single exclusively through Rhapsody. The recording is from her 2009 Fearless tour. There is definitely a gutsy rocker inside of Taylor Swift. Don't miss another side of this young superstar.
