"Love Story" was written and performed by Taylor Swift. It was released in 2008 as the lead single her second studio album Fearless. The song was written about a love interest of Swift's who was not popular among Swift's family and friends. Because of the scenario, Swift related to the plot of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and used it as a source of inspiration to compose the song. However, she replaced Romeo and Juliet's original tragic conclusion with a happy ending. It is a mid-tempo song with a dreamy soprano voice, while the melody continually builds. The lyrics are from the perspective of Juliet.
The song received wide critical praise with critics complimenting Swift's writing style and the song's plot. It was also a commercial success, selling over 8 million copies worldwide, therefore establishing itself among the best-selling singles of all time. In the United States, the song peaked at number four on the Billboard Hot 100 and sold over 6 million paid digital downloads, becoming Swift's best-selling single to date and was once the best-selling download by a female country solo artist.
