Singer Taylor Swift releases new single two weeks early........

Singer Taylor Swift's new song, Mine, arrived on iTunes yesterday, almost two weeks ahead of schedule because the song was leaking on the Web.


"Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?/ You put your arm around me for the first time/ You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter/ You are the best thing that's ever been mine," Swift sings.

She's "developed this pattern of running away" when relationships turn to love and get serious. But she added that the song is also about "finding someone who would make you believe in love and realize that it could work out."Country's Night to Rock, hosted by Tim McGraw, airing Sept.1..............

Pop star Taylor Swift hosts "Saturday Night Live"

American country pop singer and actress Taylor Swift hosts "Saturday Night Live" on Nov. 7 and she seems to have Kanye West in her crosshairs.

"I've been thinking about skit ideas for a long time," the 19-year-old Swift said. "There are definitely some hilarious things that have happened to me over the past couple of months that I think will be pretty substantial skits."

One of those things happened at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sept. 13, when West interrupted Swift while she was accepting a trophy for best female video.

West thought Beyonce was robbed. As a result, he stole Swift's moment to shine.He later apologized.
Before Swift hits the stage at the 35-year-old late-night skitfest, she's performing on "Dancing With the Stars" on Oct. 27, no doubt hoping that no one will upstage her on this occasion.

All that will likely be material for the creative minds at "SNL."

Her career record sales now top 10 million albums and 20 million paid song downloads.

She has been nominated for four CMA Awards, including Entertainer of the Year, the youngest artist in history to be honored. She has had five No. 1 singles on country charts and two consecutive No. 1 songs on the pop charts.
