Tim McGraw" is inarguably one of the best debut singles of all time. Released when Swift was just 16 years old, the melancholy country song combines wistful acoustic guitars with keening fiddle, banjo and dobro. Her vocals are both innocent and self-assured, with a prominent twang that suits the nostalgic vibe.
