<P> The lyrics to "You Belong with Me" alternate between narrative modes, where she speaks of herself, a male friend whom she has an unrequited crush on, and his girlfriend . Greenblatt described Swift's role as a storyteller, the song being a narrative set to music, which describes concerning about love and boys "just (being) very hard to catch". Craig Rosen of The Hollywood Reporter believes "You Belong with Me" 's plot is "confessional" and regards scenarios themed with high school, while Swift "is the girl next door who's had her heart broken and takes refuge in music". Lucy Davies of the BBC noted, "Swift deals in the prosaic imagery of high school boys". In one verse, Swift contrasts herself with her friend's girlfriend and states, "She wears high heels, I wear sneakers / She's cheer captain, I'm on the bleachers", which Davies interpreted as the song's protagonist feeling envy towards cheerleaders, in particular, the one dating her male friend . In the choruses, Swift attempts "to persuade some boy to come to his senses and submit to her everygirl charms". </P> <P> Sean Dooley of About.com labeled "You Belong with Me" as one of the "best songs on Fearless", while Johnny Davis of The Observer believed some parts of the song "may needle British ears", although he felt that it was better than single releases by pop singer Hilary Duff . Lucy Davies of the BBC was not impressed by the song's theme being similar to those of other songs on Fearless or on her eponymous debut album, Taylor Swift . She opined that "You Belong with Me" 's "lyrical palette has few colours (...) and it's repetitive". Jonathan Keefe of Slant Magazine said, "' You Belong with Me' isn't her best - written song by a long shot, but it's hard to fault its construction ." Jody Rosen of Rolling Stone commented, "It's hard not to be won over by the guilelessness". </P> <P> A Times Editor review from The St. Petersburg Times also described it as sounding similar to other hits: "She hankers for a boy who either doesn't love her back or wants to ditch this small town ." Josh Love of The Village Voice thought "preternatural wisdom and inclusiveness" shined through the lyrics and theme of "You Belong with Me"; Love also mentioned that it was one of Fearless' "great songs". The same magazine later ranked the song at number 10 on its annual Pazz & Jop critics' poll . Leah Greenblatt of Entertainment Weekly said Swift's vocals fit the song's melody and instrumentation, which, according to her, is "slick" and "radio - friendly". Rob Sheffield of Blender magazine recommended for readers to download "You Belong with Me", and Jeniffer Webb, also from About.com, predicted that the song would reach different age groups . Webb said, "It continues the artist's tradition of having a little something for everyone, so it's no wonder she has such a large fanbase ." </P> <P> At the 52nd Grammy Awards, "You Belong with Me" received nominations for three awards . The song received a nomination for the Grammy Award for Song of the Year but lost to Beyoncé Knowles' "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" (2008), for the Grammy Award for Record of the Year but lost to Kings of Leon's "Use Somebody" (2008), and for the Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance but lost to Knowles' "Halo" (2009). "You Belong with Me" won Favorite Song at the 2010 Kids Choice Awards and was nominated for Song of the Year at the 45th Academy of Country Music Awards, but lost to Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" (2009). Although "You Belong with Me" did not receive an award for any of the nominations it received at the 52nd Grammy Awards, Swift did win album of the year for Fearless, which the song was a part of . </P>
