Taylor Swift - Lover (August 23, 2019) Album • Page 62

"clean" is maybe the best taylor swift song i gotta be real

 

j/k the best taylor swift song is still "treacherous"

 

Sometimes, the popular answer is the right one. "All Too Well," still the GOAT. "Treacherous" and "Clean" are both up there, though.

 

"Mine" and "Enchanted" are up there for me.

 

"Mine" is definitely top five for me. "Last Kiss" too, if we're talking Speak Now.

 

Sparks Fly is the definition of a perfect pop song for me.

 

I’m not even sure what mine is but Enchanted and Treacherous are probably both top five

 

Clean
Treacherous
All Too Well
State of Grace
Last Kiss

There's my top 5. Honorable mention to Enchanted.

 

All Too Well is def one of the greatest. I have favorite Taylor songs for different moods. If I wanna be mopey and emotional its all too well and last kiss. If I am in a cutesy mood it is enchanted or Sparks fly etc etc. clean never rly stuck with me which is interesting because I tend to eat those kinda songs up

 

Didn’t rolling stone rank them all last summer? All too well was 1 and New Romantics was 2. Seemed accurate to me.

 

“Holy Ground” is the best Taylor Swift song. Everyone else is playing for second.

 

You’re forgetting Wonderland and New Romantics exist

 

Oh bad TS take. (Also not the first time it’s appeared on here or AP)

All Too Well isn’t THAT great of a song. Musically it’s pretty boring. The lyrics carry a ton of the weight of the song.

I respect y’all for having it so high but wouldn’t crack my top 5. It’d be top 10 for the sake of acknowledging what it did for her career after.

 

Agree about All Too Well, it's a poem set to music, which is cool, but I like my songs with a bit more musical excitement for lack of better terminology

 

I need to go back to bed and sleep some more because surely my eyes aren’t reading these All Too Well takes right now

/the guy with the Clean take I know I know

 

1) All Too Well

Sparks Fly
Red
Style
State of Grace

I guess is my top five. Positions 2-9 are kind of a jumble depending on the mood.

 

She’s a lyrics-first artist, though. All her best songs are carried by the writing. That said, the build in “All Too Well,” the subtle country touches, the autumnal vibe, are all perfect.

My hot take is that “New Romantics” is wildly overrated, is in its right place as a b-side, and is not a top 50 Taylor’s Swift song.

 

I am so bad at rankings because I feel like my opinions change every year, but consistent top 10 for me (in no order) are:

- Fearless
- Treacherous
- New Romantics
- This Love
- Sparks Fly
- Forever & Always
- Delicate
- All Too Well
- New Year’s Day
- State of Grace

It’s hard though because I almost feel like Taylor’s songs are hard to rank individually? 1989 for example works so much as a cohesive piece to me, but I hardly ever listen to the songs on their own, minus like, Blank Space or Style on the radio.

I think along with lyrics, her talent lies in creating a mood and an escape for an hour. Each time I’ve fallen in love with an album of hers, it was the only thing I wanted to listen to for a solid month. Even songs I didn’t like at first end up being songs I’m dying to listen to on an album. I’m very much expecting that Lover will pull this same trick on me.

 

Clean is #1.

 

^^^^ I agree. “New Romantics” does nothing for me. It’s fine.

 

I think my top 10 is:

1. All Too Well
2. Last Kiss
3. Mine
4. State of Grace
5. Clean
6. Fifteen
7. Red
8. Long Live
9. Treacherous
10. Sad, Beautiful, Tragic

 

Top 10 no order

Holy Ground
State of Grace
Red
Dress
Delicate
Blank Space
Style
Wildest Dreams
Mine
Ours

 

All Too Well
Treacherous
I Almost Do
Blank Space
Style
Out of the Woods
Last Kiss
Enchanted
Wildest Dreams
This Love

Honorable mention:
Dear John
Delicate

 

God, "I Almost Do" is so good. That's up there for me too. She's so good at SETTING A MOOD! It kills me.

 

“All Too Well” always gets an extra bump because of that epic Grammys performance. I can see it in my mind whenever the song’s on.

My top 5 is probably:

All Too Well
Treacherous
Holy Ground
Clean
Begin Again
