"
Our Song" is a
country song performed by American singer-songwriter
Taylor Swift. The song was written by Swift and produced by
Nathan Chapman. It was released on September 9, 2007 by
Big Machine Records as the third
single from Swift's eponymous debut album,
Taylor Swift (2006). Swift solely composed "Our Song" for the
talent show of her freshman year in high school, about a boyfriend who she did not have a song with. It was included on
Taylor Swift as she recalled its popularity with her classmates. The uptempo track is musically driven mainly by
banjo and lyrically describes a young couple who use the events in their lives in place of a regular song.
