Swift, furthermore, admits that she is very excited to sing the song. "When we were in the studio recording, it I just kind of went all out - all show tunes. I am obsessed with Broadway. So I was pretty excited about getting to sing this song," she says.

At 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, which will be broadcast live from Radio City Music Hall in New York City on September 13, Taylor Swift is chosen as one of the nominees of Best Female Video cetegory, being nominated for the music video of "You Belong with Me".
