#anyways mine are 1989/speak now/evermore
Text
Alright, I'm trying to see if there's any correlation. So, Swifties reblog this with your favorite pop album, your favorite country album, and your favorite folk/alternative album (you can count the Anthology tracks as a separate album if you want to put them in this category)
#this is inspired by seeing posts that are like '1989 stans are folklore stans' and 'rep stans are red stans' so trying to test how accurate#they are#anyways mine are 1989/speak now/evermore#taylor swift

I love seeing people compare music to their favourite characters and go like 'oh yeah this verse might be this character... and then this one is the other one... and then this little bit here is them both honestly. Or something like that' because I HAVE gone through every taylor swift song on evermore and folklore and compared it to skk. Sorry to be autistic on the writing account, but this is a fanfic writing account and I'm writing my second novel length fic about them so what did you expect.
folklore/evermore are very canon skk, and verge into fanon and some songs are the reason for very specific head canons, or some of the ways I write the way they perceive each other. 1989... DON'T GET ME STARTED OMFG HAVE YOU EVER LISTENED TO BLANK SPACE? I THINK IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO NOT HAVE AND OMG IT'S SO SKK CODED LIKE WTF. I HAVE VERY FIRM OPINIONS ABOUT WHICH LYRICS ARE THEIRS. Also the vault tracks literally exist what more do you want from me. 'i think about jumping off of very tall somethings just to see you come running and say the one thing I've been wanting' okay dazai pack it up you did that already, beast exists. 'i call my mom sister she said that it was for the best remind myself the more i gave you'd want me less' yeah yeah chuuya we know he left you get over it, it wasn't personal(think that line could go for either of them but the other line 'the way you faded till i left' feels more Dazai personally). Plus suburban legends. For personal reasons I struggle to listen to song without SPIRALING FUCK YOU THAT ONE PERSON SEHDHSSJNS but very skk as well 'we were born to be national treasures' is very soulmates of them. And out of the woods screams them in fanfic when they try to get better. Red, straight away all too well. They both remember it all too well. All too well skk cover with switching vocals anyone? The last time. The one with gary lightbody. Underrated song, is my favourite on that album, and SO THEM. 'this is the last time you tell me ive got it wrong, this is the last time i wont hurt you anymore' because they're fated to be together and are constantly drawn to each other and yet keep HURTING EACH OTHER RAGH. also 'we are never getting back together' is pretty funny and nice when applied to them. also state of grace. any taylor song with a mild drop of religious imagery is them cause yeah. but 'i never saw you coming, and I'll never be the same'... okay pack it up, we don't have time for your yearning. 'you were never a saint' (dazai abt chuuya) 'and i loved in shades of wrong' (bc hes toxic and doesnt know how to healthily like people) 'we learned to live with the pain, mosaic broken hearts' (bc they continue anyway and stick it out, living with the pain of being bad for each other because of how deeply they care). I almost do. Dazai after leaving. moving on to more religion, holy ground. 'for the first time i had something to lose' 'and i guess we fell apart in the usual way, and the storys got dust on every page' AAAAAA IT'S THEM. Can't really speak on debut- but I've listened to our song and picture to burn and if picture to burn isn't a vengeful chuuya idk what is. BOY OH BOY SPEAK NOW.
excuse me. one moment.
Mine- literally a skk au
Sparks fly- 'the way you move is like a rainstorm and im a house full of cards, you're the kind of reckless that should send me running' that entire verse screams dazai's fascination with corrupted chuuya, and the whole song is well yeah
back to december- dazai when they reunite just trust me on it just trust me on it. the repetition was intentional, that's how serious i am. 'i go back to december all the time' 'I got back to december to make it all right'
speak now- might just be me but it really makes me think of teen skk in fanfic harbouring urges to ruin the others relationship for 'some reason. I don't know, seeing him with her just... irks me'.
the story of us- first verse is chuuya, second verse is dazai, and the third is them both because they're LOSERS and they LOVE EACH OTHER and FUCK I'm CRYING NOW. 'id tell you i miss you but i don't know how' EMOTIONALLY CONSTIPATED BASTARD.
enchanted- self explanatory. for more context, i really think it's from dazai's pov in this case, could probably be both, but dazai fell first and harder so it's really like god he's been in love ever since he got kicked into that wall he wants him around forever. He held Chuuya's hand in the fight with rimbaud and then had all those close moments in the manga and went home to lie on his bed kicking his feet and giggling don't lie. (god im still crying this isn't helping)
better than revenge- they're both pretty vengeful idk it makes me think of iwsynttr for some reason
haunted- chuuya pov. 'i thought i had you figured out, something's gone terribly wrong' 'stood there and watched you walk away from everything we had' they're so sad, but the general idea of chuuya thinking he has figured out dazai and knowing how he thinks and then dazai just leaves suddenly and he's like 'Wow! I thought i knew you. How do i forget this'. 'wont finish what you started' bringing chuuya into the mafia then leaving it.
last kiss- 'you told me you love me so why did you go away' chuuya pov again oh god it hurts why am i doing this to myself? 'never imagined we'd end like this, your name, forever the name on my lips' yep yep ow.
LONG LIVE.- LISTEN. TO. THE. SONG. AND TELL ME IT'S NOT DAZAI AND CHUUYA. I COULD DO A WHOLE ANALYSIS ON JUST THIS SONG. 'promise me this, that you'll stand by me forever, but if god forbid fate should step in, and force us into a goodbye...please tell them my name, tell them how the crowds went wild, tell them how i hope they shine, long live the walls we crashed through, i had the time of my life with you' FUCK IT'S DAZAI AN HE'S IN LOVE WITH CHUUYA AND DOESNT KNOW ODAS GONNA DIE YET, JUST THINKS HE DOESNT GET TO KEEP ANYTHING HE WANTS. FUUUUUCK. THEY'RE IN LOVE AND DAZAI WANTS IT REMEMBERED PLEASE I'M SO SAD.
anyway, i can't pretend I'm normal about skk anymore i haven't even covered fearless, reputation, lover or midnights please somebody encourage me to actually write full things dedicated to each album and the most fitting songs from said albums please i'll do it and plus i need to actually gather proof for my autism diagnosis appointment so this would be a good way to to that probably. anyway yeah this'll never make it out my drafts lol
#this is finally out of my drafts after months#dedicated to the anon who asked and the one who said abt the fearless song idk if you're the same person but either way love you lots 🤞#i love taylor swift so much#i love skk more#im sorry for this#but the brainrot is real#this was written at like 3am in January#bsd#silas yaps#soukoku#soukoku fanfiction#bsd dazai#bsd chuuya#bungou stray dogs#taylor swift

hii , just wanted to say how much i litterally love this fic, ngl it has turned me into a swiftie (bow down to taylor swift) anyways i wanted to ask what is the partys fav eras?
every time someone says they became a taylor fan bc of this fic we grow more powerful >:) so glad to hear! welcome to the brainrot 🫡 as for their favs, we talked abt their fav albums a while back but that was a While Back and i never deny an opportunity to talk acswy party x taylor so here are what we think their favs would be:
el: speak now stan first and human being second. she’s just like me <3 no notes here her taste is immaculate. she did in fact shell out for the merch earlier this summer
max: rep girly through and through (both the album and the vibes of the Era) but i think she holds a very soft spot for lover (specifically after she and lucas start dating). loves call it what you want bc she is a not so secret softie
lucas: lover! not a huge fan but got introduced to taylor more through max and naturally gravitated towards lover. i’ve said this before and i’ve said this again but his fav track off of it is def i think he knows. he got my heart! beat! skipping down 16th avenue! etc so on and so forth
dustin: not a huge taylor Fan for the most part. likes her more popular hits and therefore probably 1989 if he had to pick an album. however he can also be found listening to very random debut tracks that no one else in the party ever really listens to. his spotify listening activity will show him listening to cold as you for three hours and everyone thinks it’s a glitch (it’s not). also a should’ve said no enjoyer. he and el scream it in the car a lot
will: tells everyone it’s folklore for the lyricism and whatnot (it’s mostly true) but he holds a special spot for red tv that he conveniently does not mention (specifically the breakup songs) (#andyoucallmeupagainjusttobreakmelikeapromise). mostly bc of the timing of when it dropped but also bc red tv is a masterpiece and he is putting some well deserved respect on its name. el and max know his secret though bc they had to listen to him listening to it on loop for nov-december 2021 and then it carried over into jan 2022 before they finally staged an intervention
mike: if he had to choose an Album it would prob be evermore but i think his favorite songs are scattered throughout the rest of her discography! to meeeee he is a mine enjoyer, as well as delicate, hygtg, so on and so forth. is not allowed to listen to this is me trying anymore for his own safety (lucas keeps tabs on his spotify activity). also to me mike is a pop punk enjoyer so i think speak now’s sound really draws him in as well! definitely got excited over fob + hayley’s features on the vault tracks
#to me will is fearless coded in every universe#i don’t think it would be acswy will’s fav album tho#like i don’t think he’d listen to most of the songs on it a lotttttt. here n there yea#probably some commentary here i’ll come back to add later hehe#asks#acswy reference

thanK you aIMee: So I pushed each boulder up that hill
The Prophecy: Cards on the table, mine play out like fools in a fable, oh, it was sinking in
The Prophecy: Poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand
Cassandra: So, they killed Cassandra first 'cause she feared the worst and tried to tell the town
Cassandra: I was in my tower weaving nightmares

Rating Taylor Swift Albums By the Amount of Royai Songs On Them
Debut: 0/10 weak start come on Taylor you can do better
Fearless: 4/10 The Way I Loved You and Change work if you squint but we haven’t really gotten to the good stuff yet
Speak Now: 9/10 NOW WE’RE TALKING. My personal fave TS album and it gave us Mine. Haunted. Innocent. Long Live. Sparks Fly if you squint (I mean it has fire AND rain references so it counts). Also not Royai but Superman is SUCH an EdWin song I mean come on
Red: 6.5/10 The Royai songs on this album aren’t as iconic as some of the other ones but they’re still definitely there with some squintage (Sad Beautiful Tragic, The Last Time, Treacherous). Taylor’s Version improves strongly with the addition of Forever Winter which is very very very them also some lyrics in ATW 10 Minute though not the song as a whole
1989: 5/10 Not as strong as what’s to come but it DID give us I Know Places which is by far the most underrated song on the album and has Royai vibes out the WAZOO, you also have the bridge of Out of the Woods and Wonderland too if you squint
Reputation: 8.5/10 HECK YEAHHHH. This album gave us Dancing With Our Hands Tied. Call it What You Want. Don’t Blame Me. THE SONG THAT INSPIRED THE GREATEST ROYAI FIC OF ALL TIME. New Year’s Day doesn’t have a lot of basis in canon but it definitely fits fluffy fanfic Royai. I almost forgot Endgame bc I don’t care for the song musically so I never listen to it but the lyrics totally fit them
Lover: 7.5/10 This one deserves respect solely for giving us The Archer which began the long and esteemed tradition of Royai/Taylor Swift AMVs on my YouTube channel, Afterglow also works really well for Beyond the Inferno even though it’s one of the more mid songs on the album. Cornelia Street and Lover are really sweet with in-a-relationship post canon Royai, I also made a Royai/Edwin vid with ME! so that’s a thing
Folklore: 10/10 BABY THIS IS IT. THIS IS PEAK ROYAI VIBES. NOTHING ELSE WILL EVER TOP. Peace and Illicit Affairs are obviously two of the most iconic ones ever and no song will ever capture the tunnel scene better than Hoax, Cardigan spawned probably the best animatic/AMV in Royai history, Epiphany, This Is Me Trying, you could probably create some sort of scenario for almost all of the songs on this album really. There’s also ones like Exile and My Tears Ricochet that definitely have The Vibes but are too sad to think about because that would imply that they split up and my brain could not handle that. Anyways I feel like this was the album that really started the whole Royai/Taylor Swift craze and we must always respect
Evermore: 5/10 amazing amazing album but a somewhat disappointing followup to Folklore in terms of Royai Vibes, there’s several songs on here that have like, specific lines and moments that REALLY fit them or work for fanfic scenarios (Willow, Ivy, Tis the Damn Season), or Happiness which is a similar scenario to Exile and MTR on the previous album, but there’s no definitive iconic Royai song on here that captures them as a whole like a Peace, Innocent or The Archer
I worked so hard on this post plz don’t let it flop
#royai#taylor swift#roy mustang#riza hawkeye#speak now#red taylors version#1989 taylor swift#reputation#lover#folklore#evermore#fullmetal alchemist

I wanted to do this for fun awhile ago so here is my ranking of every album opener and closer of my favorite musicians. Taking into account how they fit in the narrative and theme of the albums they’re on. (Keep in mind this is my opinion)
Taylor Swift- album openers
1.) State of Grace (Red)
2.) ..Ready for It? (rep)
3.) Fearless (Fearless)
4.) Welcome to New York (1989)
5.) Mine (Speak Now)
6.) the 1 (folklore)
7.) I Forgot That You Existed (Lover)
8.) willow (evermore)
9.) Lavender Haze (Midnights)
10.) Tim McGraw (Debut)
Taylor Swift- closing tracks (not including the deluxe editions/vault tracks)
1.) Long Live (Speak Now)
2.) Clean (1989)
3.) Daylight (Lover)
4.) Begin Again (Red)
5.) New Year’s Day (rep)
6.) Change (Fearless)
7.) Mastermind (Midnights)
9.) evermore (evermore)
10.) hoax (folklore)
11.) A Perfectly Good Heart (Debut)
Imagine Dragons - album openers
1.) My Life (Mercury) (I’m counting Acts 1 and 2 as the one)
2.) Shots (Smoke + Mirrors)
3.) Natural (Origins)
4.) I Don’t Know Why (Evolve)
5.) Radioactive (Night Visions)
Imagine Dragons- album closers (excluding deluxe)

1.) Ships + Tides (Human)
2.) Heaven (Oh My My)
3.) Life In Color (Native)
4.)Lullaby (Waking Up)
5.) Apologize ft Timbaland (Dreaming Out Loud )
Waking Up should have been the closing song on the album Waking Up
Come Home should’ve been the closing song on Dreaming Out Loud
lmao the two most popular ID and 1R songs are on the bottom of my lists
Okay now my ranking WITH Deluxe/Vault tracks, this will only apply to closing songs
Taylor
1.) All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Red)
2.) New Romantics (1989)
3.) the lakes (folklore)
4.) Timeless (Speak Now)
5.) it’s time to go (evermore)
5.) Bye Bye Baby (Fearless)
Imagine Dragons
1.) Selene (Night Visions)
2.) Real Life (Origins)
4.) Who We Are (Smoke + Mirrors)
OneRepublic
1.) Loose Somebody (Human)
2.) Sucker Punch (Waking Up)
3.) If I Loose Myself Alesso and OneRepublic (Native)
I SWEAR Oh My My had a deluxe version but I don’t remember the extra songs RIP
Also I don’t listen to the deluxe addition of Waking Up as much as the OG but I should because the songs in the deluxe version I’m not as familiar with
Anyway those are my rankings :3

something i don’t think a lot of people (and by that i mean anyone who’s not a swiftie) realize is that what ever era you are isn’t necessarily the era you were introduced to her music but what album you listened to on your own without anyone else, the one where you heard it and didn’t (only) jam tf out but listed to the lyrics and felt it.
like yea me and my mom will always have debut and fearless, they were hers though, she shared them with me but debut and fearless were her favorites not mine. she loves country and got to see her in concert during debut (WHICH I AM JEALOUS ABOUT >:(!!) she doesn’t really listen to any other albums because at the end of the day she wasn’t taylor’s target demographic, she was in her 30s with a baby and all of taylor’s songs at the time we’re about teen love.
red is mine (i didn’t get to listen to speak now because at a young age my mom could tell how i was going to play that cd on rinse repeat and she’d already gone through that with the diamond castle and was not eager to expirence that again so i missed out on speak now😔) i can remember getting it for christmas on cd with a black ipod shuffle and hello kitty headphones in 2012. i remember standing over my moms shoulder while she put the album and the rest of her itunes library on it. i remember listening to the lucky one on repeat for SIX HOURS when i was at my dads house and him letting me play it through the aux on the way back to my moms.
my dads favorite color is red so he’d let me play it whenever we were in the car, he even got it on his sirius stiletto, and he’d keep the radio on when 1989 came out, but he didn’t love her music, he loved me. i shared red and 1989 with him but he LOVES reputation. his favorites are delicate and gorgeous (his favorite part is the little ding after “you’ve ruined my life by not being mine’) once rep came out of was not a question of ‘if’ or ‘when’ i could play taylor swift, it was ‘what song do i play’. midnights came out about a month before i went to visit my dad for thanksgiving and i made sure he didn’t know so i could see his reaction to it and he was jokingly upset because he ‘could’ve had more taylor a month ago!’
i’m going out to see him soon and i’m gonna show him folklore and evermore a bit more in-depth than just playing them (he loves a good story and i’m like quality control for most music lol) i’ve also gotten him and my brother invested in the ‘lost era’ karma (if it does ever come out i think my dad will LOVE it, so taylor if you could release it so i could dream the lyric with my dad to annoy my brother that would be pretty cool) and all the hints she’s been dropping and such
anyway i just want to thank taylor swift for being the music industry and creating a lot of very vital childhood memories for me when i felt very much alone :)
thank you @taylorswift your music means so much to me
#midnights evermore and folklore look wierd bc they didnt have grey dark blue or brown :(#taylor swift#fearless#fearless taylor’s version#speak now#speak now taylor’s version#red#red taylor’s version#1989#reputation#lover#folklore#evermore#midnights#karma ? 👁👁 ?

which taylor swift album is the most steviedavid?
minervahouse answers…
note: guys, i’m sorry, i’m not including debut. i know that the lyrics could apply to them, but i just can’t accept a pure country album as theirs. plus, i’m not that familiar with it.
so, i began by determining how many songs on each album could strongly apply to them. (i highlighted my personal favorites in purple)
fearless (taylor’s version): 10/26
fearless
hey stephen
you belong with me
the way i loved you
forever and always
change
jump then fall
forever and always (piano version)
the other side of the door
mr. perfectly fine
speak now (deluxe edition): 8/20
mine
sparks fly
the story of us
enchanted
haunted
superman
haunted (acoustic version)
mine (pop mix)
red (taylor’s version): 13/30
state of grace
red
treacherous
i knew you were trouble
stay, stay, stay
the last time
sad, beautiful, tragic
everything has changed
come back… be here
state of grace (acoustic version)
better man
nothing new
forever winter
1989 (deluxe edition): 13/19
blank space
style
out of the woods
all you had to do was stay
i wish you would
bad blood
wildest dreams (taylor’s version)
how you get the girl
this love (taylor’s version)
i know places
wonderland
you are in love
new romantics
reputation: 9/15
… ready for it?
end game
don’t blame me
delicate
so it goes…
gorgeous
dancing with our hands tied
call it what you want
new year’s day
lover: 9/18
lover
the archer
i think he knows
miss americana and the heartbreak prince
paper rings
death by a thousand cuts
london boy <333
afterglow
daylight
folklore (deluxe version): 10/17
cardigan
the last great american dynasty
exile
my tears ricochet
mirrorball
this is me trying
invisible string
peace
hoax
the lakes
evermore (deluxe version): 6/17
willow
champagne problems
gold rush
‘tis the damn season
cowboy like me
long story short
but then of course, it’s not enough to just take the album with the most steviedavid songs. it has to be the highest percentage of songs that apply. the ranking is as follows (from lowest to highest):
evermore (deluxe version): 35%
fearless (taylor’s version): 38%
speak now (deluxe version): 40%
red (taylor’s version): 43%
lover: 50%
folklore (deluxe version): 59%
reputation: 60%
1989 (deluxe version): 68%
so the winner is 1989! now of course, this method isn’t full proof. there may be songs that i don’t consider to apply, but you do. also, one could debate that 1989 has more songs, but speak now has better, or something like that.
anyways, if i missed something lmk. if someone wants to check my math, please do. i’m a nate, not a janelle obviously.

so i have some thoughts about learning that tim mcgraw was a surprise song and NOT on the setlist🙄😒 it has occurred to me that tim mcgraw is a track 1 and state of grace (night 2) is also a track 1. where am i going with this?
track 1s:
Debut - Tim Mcgraw (surprise song;night 1)
Fearless - Fearless (setlist)
Speak Now - Mine (not performed)
Red - State of Grace (surpise song;night 2)
1989 - Welcome to New York (not performed)
Reputation - Ready For It (setlist)
Lover - I Forgot That You Existed (not performed)
Folklore - The 1 (not performed)
Evermore - Willow (setlist)
Midnights - Lavender Haze (setlist)

hello, my fellow tortured poets 🩶🤍🖤
happy one month of the tortured poets department! i have spent the past few weeks connecting with this album in a life-altering way and while it’s still too soon to know where it ranks in taylor’s discography for me, i think i am *tentatively* ready (after endless sleepless nights) to provide a *tentative* *potential* top 10 from both ttpd and the anthology! 🤍
((these are subject to change at the drop of a hat because there are already 3 songs that didn’t make the cut and i hate myself for it, and also because i’ve been having a moment with “fresh out the slammer” when she was my least favorite for the past month and that’s proof that i don’t know what i’m talking about <3 but anyway!))
let’s get into it!!!
in no particular order…
i can do it with a broken heart
i adored this song from first listen. it was my initial standout track and i’ve only loved it even more every single day since. it has me feeling ready to take on the entire world. i think if i had heard this song in 2021 i probably would have needed resuscitated
favorite lyric: “i cry a lot but i am so productive, it’s an art” (i’m a capricorn. it resonates so deeply).
peter
i have seen more than my fair share of one direction tiktok edits to this song and i consider every single one a hate crime. it HURTS. but also the way this parallels my favorite lyric in cardigan (“i knew you tried to change the ending, peter losing wendy”) AND the way it fits with maisie peter’s “wendy” … oh i am ruined. you already know i have a playlist with just cardigan, peter, and wendy and it’s pure pain. 1989/10
favorite lyric: “cause love’s never lost when perspective is earned” (but actually the entire bridge, though)
the bolter
taylor read my diary with this one and i’m still working out the best way to take legal action. god i love it so much. the chorus is so catchy and is a masterclass in storytelling. the metaphor of falling through the ice is just … this is a perfect song. it’s an actual perfect song. this one (and peter too) are in my top THREE on the album <3
favorite lyric: “ended with the slam of the door but she’s got the best stories you can be sure that as she was leaving, it felt like freedom”
but daddy i love him
IM HAVING HIS BABY! NO IM NOT BUT YOU SHOULD SEE YOUR FACES!!!!!!!! okay i’m so embarrassed to say that after my first listen, i ranked this song second to last? listen. it was nearly one in the morning and i didn’t know what i was talking about. this feels like a grown up version of love story. it tells a story !!!!! taylor’s country roots come through !!!! and as a queer individual….. i just relate. i love it. it’s perfect.
favorite lyric: “i’ll tell you something right now, i’d rather burn my whole life down, than listen to one more second of all this bitching and moaning” (i scream this so passionately in my car)
who’s afraid of little old me?
i think this may be the best written song on the album. it has the witchiness of evermore. the songwriting of speak now. it’s a masterful look into how she views her own fame and sense of self (a topic she has covered before, but never in this way) and while i can’t relate to it on that level, i love it as a storyteller and as someone existing in society as a woman
favorite lyric: “you don’t get to call me about sad” OR “is it a wonder i broke, let’s hear one more joke” (but the entire song is perfect)
guilty as sin?
i could literally listen to only this song for the rest of my life and it wouldn’t be enough. this is god tier taylor. obviously it has the sensuality of songs like dress or false god, but i also think the heart of the song is rooted in the guilt that comes with falling out of love. it HURTS. also the religious lyricism. god. but also also. it’s such a fucking banger
favorite lyric: “am i allowed to cry?” / “what if he’s written ‘mine’ on my upper thigh only in my mind?”
i hate it here
this song feels like the bolter, in the sense that i genuinely think taylor is writing about me. it’s so rude. i once again just believe this song is perfect. the girls that get it just GET IT. i have already used this song in my artwork. as an idyllic daydreamer, it cuts so deeply and resonates in a way few songs do and i also think it’s just so so so so so so so so so so ….. SO real. i love the simple production. it feels like an evermore track and evermore is my album, so <3
favorite lyric: “i hate it here so i will go to lunar valleys in my mind, when they found a better planet only the gentle survived. i read about it in a book, the night i felt like i might die” (i just … I GET IT).
the black dog
AND I HOPE IT’S SH I T T Y AT THE BLACK DOG. i think this song is the essence of everything i love about taylor. her storytelling, her way of making her personal experiences so relatable, the vulnerability. it’s very rare that i connect with a song instantly, but this is one that i feel in love with upon first listen. the production with “old habits die screaming” and the way it fades at the end of the song …. god. the entire thing is a masterpiece. have i mentioned how much i adore the anthology?
favorite lyric: “i just don’t understand how you don’t miss me” (almost crashed my car the first time i processed that one)
so long, london
there are only two taylor albums where the track 5 doesn’t at least make my top 5, and this is not one of them. so long, london was the song i was most excited for when we first got the tracklist and it didn’t disappoint. the production is so melancholic but also SOUNDS like anxiety, in a way that’s reminiscent of the archer. it feels like the stages of grief that ends with acceptance and letting go and i think it’s powerful because it’s about a loss that’s already been mourned. also, as someone who connects deeply with places that i love and associate with people …. it HURTS
favorite lyric: “i’m just getting color back into my face, i’m just mad as hell ‘cause i loved this place for so long” (the way i internalize this line as it relates to my own life …. ooof)
so high school
and we’re rounding off a devastating list with a certified bop. listen. i don’t care. i fucking love this song. it’s pure bliss, pure love, pure joy (and also another one to add to the “spicy taylor swift” playlists). it makes me happy. “you know how to ball, i know aristotle” HELL YEAH!!!! also i don’t think the chorus gets enough credit for how well written it is. i think the lyrics fit the title so well with this song and it’s just … i just don’t understand how you can hear “and i’m pissed off you let me give you all that youth for free” in so long, london and NOT ugly cry when we get to this track. couldn’t be me. i love her. literal perfection. maybe taylor’s happiest pure love song since …… ever
favorite lyric: “you knew what you wanted and boy you got her” (AHSKEKEKWKSKSKS)
anyway! that is her! that is my tentative list! feel free to give me your lists! be advised this list could have looked very different a week ago and may look very different next week!!! i love this album so much!!!!! that’s all!!!! cheers to all the writing she will inspire 🤍
also, for fun: here are my pre-listen rankings based on vibes and my initial ranking after my first listen (before we even knew about the anthology) 🤍🩶🖤
have a wonderful sunday :-)

it's your secret santa!! also, i love the evermore dress as well! it has such a good pattern!! <3
what are some of your favorite songs by her? not asking for your top songs, as i personally cannot rank her songs wyuhjvghjh
Hiii!!!
So I am currently trying to rank all of Taylor’s music but it’s taking a really longggg time and I’m very indecisive so it’s hard. But I do definitely have favourites and I think I know my favs from each album so yeah.
These are my faves from each
Taylor Swift- I’m only me when I’m with you
Fearless- the way I loved you
Speak now- the story of us or back to December
Red- I actually don’t know about this but it’s between the lucky one, red, the last time, holy ground or come back… be here
1989- I know places
Reputation- I did something bad
Lover- Miss Americana and the heartbreak prince
Folklore- august or the last great American dynasty
Evermore- champagne problems
Midnights- I thought it was lavender haze but according to my Spotify wrapped it’s you’re on your own kid because that was the song I played most (not sure what that says about me but whoops 🙊)
And then 3am edition because I kind of separate them (not sure why)- the Great War
Okay also because I kind of separate the vault tracks from the albums there also has to be a separate category for this
Fearless- that’s when
Red- forever winter or nothing new
Speak now- I can see you
1989- now that we don’t talk
And then just some honourable mentions bc I want to
You belong with me, superman, mine, timeless, clean, I wish you would, wonderland, king of my heart, lwymmd, dress, delicate, Cornelia street, death by a thousand cuts, my tears ricochet, betty, ‘Tis the damn season, Coney Island, cowboy like me, right where you left me literally all of evermore, you’re losing me, snow on the beach (the more Lana version)
Yeah that was a bit more than some but I love her all her music sooo much it’s hard to choose. I’m very indecisive 😆
Anyway hope you have a nice day or rest of your day or whatever time it is enjoy the rest of it (that sounded really ominous sorry I don’t mean it like that 😂) (it’s evening where I am so there’s not much day left)
Thank you for being an awesome secret Santa!
See you soon ❤️

with the last show of the eras 2023 done, and mine being in more than half a year still, time to make an outfit wishlist
lover: barbie pink! but i also love the purple tassels unironically and the classic is iconic
the Man suit: half of my reason for barbie pink is because the suit jacket looks so good (but the iridescent silver is iconic)
fearless: THE FRINGE DRESS okay i think the noodle dresses are actually cute but the fringe dress gives off a wonderful roaring 20s vibe and she looks amazing (and i love speak now so it reminds me of the mean music video even tho different album, but the look was such a slay)
evermore: the bronze dress. need i say more
rep: her reputation never changed💅
speak now: TOUGH either the purple cupcake announcement dress or the pink one (but the wedding-dress-white is also a slay)
red: i love the who’s taylor anyway tshirt
folklore: WHITE WHITE WHITE i have strong feelings about this i love them all but the white looks so perfect in the funeral procession
1989: pink or blue
lavender haze/antihero: the iridescent tshirt but no strong feelings i love the pink, purple and teal also
midnights bodysuit: love them all! the darkest midnight rain one is very structured and pretty, the royal blue is an iconic fringe moment and the 1989 announcement one is sparkly and pretty
karma jacket: the magenta one is the perfect shade to offset the navy blue but complement it so i love it, the multicolor reminds me of birds of prey and the dark blue is pretty (but rooting for magenta)
we shall see how it goes
#i also want black and white rep outfits so much#taylor you drama queen you better make them slay fhdbdbdjj#taylor swift#the eras tour#eras tour#bay rambles#bay shitposts
