SAT 2015: Taylor Swift Corrects Princeton Review Test for Wrong Lyrics [SEE PHOTO]

"Style" singer, Taylor Swift, is in the know about what others have to say about her music. The talented singer smartly defended her lyrics against a Princeton test review publication, as reported in US Magazine.

Swift reacted against an SAT review material publisher misquoting song lyrics from her "Fearless" album, "Fifteen", being written in an ungrammatical way. The test prep publisher mentioned in the book that Swift, and other pop singers such as Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Whitney Houston were musicians who have famously used incorrect grammar in their songs' lyrics. Swift came across a Tumblr fan photo of the review book opened to a page where this note was written:

"Pop lyrics are a great source of bad grammar. See if you can find the error in each of the following...

"Somebody tells you they love you, you got to believe 'em."

According to Time magazine, the publisher noted that "somebody" is constantly singular, both in masculine and feminine forms. Hence, this sentence from the song's lyrics should have been written as:

"Somebody tells you s/he loves you, you got to believe him/her."

Listening closely to the song, anybody would hear that the following are the correct lyrics of the song:

"Somebody tells you they love you, you're gonna believe them."

Via Swift's Tumblr account, People reported that the singer posted these messages to show the publisher that they got her lyrics all wrong in the first place:

"Not the right lyrics at all pssshhhh,"

"You had one job, test people. One job." 

Taylor Swift has been known to always reach out to fans via social media. E! Online reported that Swift replied to the other fan's thoughts in Tumblr yesterday. The fan commented that she came across mannequins at an H & M clothing store bearing striking physical similarities with her idol.

The fan captioned the photo with this message: "H&M seems to be spawning an army of Taylor Swifts," to which Swift had this to say in response: "Lol I thought that was me." 

The 25-year old singer's young fans will get to see more of Swift when she embarks on her upcoming "1989 World Tour" for 2015. 2015's "1989 World Tour" will open in Tokyo, Japan on May 5 and 6, 2015. U.S. states, Louisiana and Michigan, will be the venues for Swift's concert itineraries come May 20, 22 and 30, 2015, as posted on Taylorswift.com.
