YOU BELONG WITH ME

“You Belong With Me” was written by Taylor Swift and Liz Rose. The latter’s real name is Elisabeth Wagner. The track was included on Swift’s second studio album ‘Fearless’. This became her first US #1. The project was also her first as co-producer (with Nathan Chapman). The album peaked in the Top 5 in Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

In the US, Swift scored her highest charting single with the third track lifted off ‘Fearless’. “You Belong With Me” peaked at #2. As “Love Story” had also done, this song topped the Country and Adult Contemporary charts in America.

Worldwide, the single was well received, reaching the Top 10 in Japan, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. In the UK, the song peaked at #30. Two more singles were lifted off ‘Fearless’: “Fifteen” and the title track. Both made the US Top 40. The latter peaked at #9.
