10/8/2007 Stephen L. Betts   Late Sunday night, Taylor Swift hit another milestone on her MySpace page topping 26 million music streams. Her stream count reached 25 million less than two weeks ago. Taylor will perform two songs on Live with Regis & Kelly on Wednesday (10/10), including her first televised performance of the new single, “Our Song,” which is climbing the Billboard charts even more rapidly than her previous releases. The success of “Our Song” is especially sweet for Taylor since it is her first self-penned single without any co-writers. “Like 'Tim McGraw,' the song was finished in like 20 minutes,” she says. “I wrote it about this guy I was dating, and how we didn't have a song. So I went ahead and wrote us one. I think there's just some sort of magic in the way the track sounds like it's bouncing, almost!” Also on the show, Taylor will perform “Picture to Burn,” a popular song in her live shows. Both songs are from the CMA Horizon Award nominee’s platinum-selling, self-titled debut disc.
