22 (Taylor Swift Song)
"22" is a song by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, taken from her fourth studio album, ''Red'' (2012). It was released as the album's fourth single on March 12, 2013, by Big Machine Records. Written and produced by Swift, Max Martin, and Shellback, "22" combines pop styles such as dance-pop and bubblegum with disco and 1990s rock. The track begins with an acoustic guitar riff and progresses into an upbeat refrain which incorporates pulsing synthesizers and syncopated bass drums. The lyrics celebrate being 22 years old while acknowledging the heartache that the narrator experienced in the past. Upon ''Red'''s release, critics complimented the production of "22" as catchy but some found the lyrics weak and the song repetitive. Retrospectively, some have considered it one of Swift's best pop songs. "22" peaked at number 20 on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and was certified triple platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It received platinum o ...

22 (album)
''22'' is the eighth studio album by British singer Craig David. It was released on 30 September 2022 through TS5 Label and Moor Records. Critical reception Kyann-Sian Williams of ''NME'' called ''22'' a "nostalgia-loving ..silky R&B revival record". She wrote that "heavily relying on the feel-good nature of classic '00s R&B, Craig David could have dangerously made a gimmicky throwback album. Yet, in a time when many UK R&B fans are crying out for great music and recognition, Craig David not only feeds that appetite but uses his platform to laud up some stars to watch too." Kate French-Morris, writing for ''The Telegraph'', remarked that the album "isn't addled by trends, unlike its 2018 predecessor, which caught David toying with autotune and EDM drops ..A fresh generation of ears have given him a fairer hearing and comeback success. ''22'' is no ''Born to Do It'', but it at least reminds us of that album’s deserved prestige." Chart performance ''22'' debuted at number seve ...
