The article says "The song was released on April 19, 2011 by Big Machine Records, as the fourth single from Speak Now. Swift composed "The Story of Us" regarding the time when she encountered an ex-boyfriend of hers at the 2010 CMT Music Awards. At the event, the two attempted to ignore each other, which inspired Swift to compose the song."
The ex-Boyfriend was john mayer.
I read it in J-14 magazine. It was the May/June issue.
So the Article SHOULD say "The song was released on April 19, 2011 by Big Machine Records, as the fourth single from Speak Now. Swift composed "The Story of Us" regarding the time when she encountered john mayer an ex-boyfriend of hers at the 2010 CMT Music Awards. At the event, the two attempted to ignore each other, which inspired Swift to compose the song."

Copyvio check: I reviewed matches over 5% using Earwig's Copyvio Detector. No issues. (Matches were attributed quotes, titles, etc.)
Media: FUR in place for cover image. Other image is CC. Images are relevant. Placement and captions are fine. Alt text is OK - optionally it could be made a bit more descriptive of what is shown image. As far as I'm aware, the 27-second song sample is OK per Wikipedia policies.
"a collection of songs containing confessions she had wanted to but could not make to the people she had met in real life." - I was thinking about suggesting a rewording of the second half of this, but can you just confirm what parts of the source are being summarised here? (I'm not sure "confessions" is quite right if it's the answer that starts "Everything that happens to me gets put into a song...")
"after which she proceeded to write the lyrics" - optionally, as a misreading of the lyric author would be unlikely, change to something like "and then proceeded to write the lyrics"
"Some critics commented" - if it was the two cited, I'f name them and their publications. (e.g. "Both Matt Bjorke of Roughstock and Billboard's Brittany McKenna..." (For some reason I couldn't get to either the original or archived versions of these sources; I may try later)
"In Speak Now album reviews, some critics" - optionally expand these but as a range of opinions are included in the paragraph, it would also be OK to leave this as-is.
scarrittbennet.org isn't an independent source for the video being filmed there. Is there a better source? If not, can leave it as-is as it's not very controversial, unless I underestimate Swifities.
Thanks,
Ippantekina. I'm satisfied that the article meets the GA criteria, so I'm passing it. The inclusion of the full date for the release of Speak Now (per my comment on infobox and lead) isn't a blocker to GA status. Regards,
