Taylor Swift Songs as Enneagram Personality Types
The Enneagram is a personality test that classifies your personality in one of nine categories, each with different traits. Most of Taylor Swift's songs fall into two of the personality types: type 4 (the individualist) and type 9 (the peacemaker). The songs on these lists are mostly in album order - however, there are a few added onto the ends of a few of the lists that took me a little longer to place that come out of order.
TYPE 1: THE REFORMER
The reformer tends to be rational. This person is idealistic and principled - they live by their values. They are purposeful and self-controlled, and tend to be perfectionists. The songs I classified as Type 1's are songs that focus on the ideals in relationships and life. They're songs where Taylor has a purpose, and some of them tend to have more rational thoughts behind them.
Tim McGraw
Mary's Song (Oh My My My)
Fifteen
Untouchable
We Were Happy
Don't You
Last Kiss
I Almost Do
The Last Time
I Wish You Would
How You Get The Girl
Clean
End Game
The Archer
The 1
This Is Me Trying
Epiphany
The Lakes
Happiness
It's Time To Go
Mastermind
Dear Reader
TYPE 2: THE HELPER
The helper is a caring person who genuinely cares about other people. They tend to be interpersonal and generous. These people are people-pleasing, and can be possessive. The songs I classified as Type 2's are ones where she clearly shows caring for other people, sometimes to the extent of people-pleasing. She tends to be possessive in some of these songs, too.
Teardrops On My Guitar
Tied Together with a Smile
Stay Beautiful
Hey Stephen
Jump Then Fall
That's When
Sparks Fly
Enchanted
Stay Stay Stay
Begin Again
Run
Welcome to New York
Wildest Dreams

Lover
Afterglow

Seven
Marjorie
You're On Your Own, Kid
Glitch
Sweeter Than Fiction
Sad Beautiful Tragic
Ronan
Soon You'll Get Better
Safe & Sound
TYPE 3: THE ACHIEVER
The achiever is a success-oriented, pragmatic, and hard working person. This person is very driven and adaptive, and is very image-conscious. The songs classified under this category show how conscious Taylor is of her own image. They're the songs where she's trying to show herself in a positive light. These are the songs where she shows herself as a hard worker and just how successful she is, without caring about those who try to bring her down.
A Place in This World
Change
Superstar
The Other Side of the Door
Speak Now
Mean
Long Live
I Bet You Think About Me
Style
Shake It Off
Call It What You Want
I Think He Knows
ME!
Mirrorball
Gold Rush
Midnight Rain
Karma
Today Was a Fairytale
I Heart ?
You All Over Me
TYPE 4: THE INDIVIDUALIST
The individualist tends to be withdrawn and sensitive. This person is self-absorbed and dramatic, and tends to be temperamental. This person is very expressive. These songs are dramatic and temperamental, the ones where Taylor is bolder about herself - she is in the right in all of these songs, even when she isn't.
Picture to Burn
A Perfectly Good Heart
You Belong With Me
The Way I Loved You
Forever & Always (Piano Version)
Come In With The Rain
Mr. Perfectly Fine

Illicit Affairs
No Body, No Crime
Cowboy Like Me
Anti-Hero
Vigilante Shit
High Infidelity
Carolina
Invisible
Breathe
All Too Well
All Too Well (10 Minute Version)
My Tears Ricochet
TYPE 5: THE INVESTIGATOR
The investigator is intense and cerebral - they tend to think more with their brains than with their hearts. They are perceptive and innovative, but tend to be secretive and isolated. The songs classified as Type 5's are the ones where Taylor finds herself isolated and alone. A lot of these songs tend to be very intelligently written.
The Outside

The Story of Us
Innocent
Treacherous
Starlight
Nothing New
I Know Places

I Forgot That You Existed
Exile
Peace
'Tis the Damn Season
Tolerate It
Coney Island

Would've, Could've, Should've
Beautiful Ghosts
Eyes Open
Evermore
TYPE 6: THE LOYALIST
The loyalist is committed and security-oriented. They tend to be anxious and suspicious of those around them. They are responsible and engaging. Taylor tends to be anxious and suspicious in a lot of the songs I classified as Type 6's. They're the songs where she's seeking security and comfort, but may not always be receiving it. Things are going wrong in many of these songs.
Cold As You
Tell Me Why
Bye Bye Baby
If This Was a Movie
I Knew You Were Trouble
The Lucky One
The Moment I Knew
Forever Winter
New Romantics
Don't Blame Me
This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things
False God
August
Hoax
Question...?
I Don't Wanna Live Forever
The Very First Night
TYPE 7: THE ENTHUSIAST
The enthusiast is spontaneous and fun-loving. They are busy and versatile, but they tend to be a bit distractible and scattered. These songs have a lot of energy and are fun. These are the dance songs, the ones that make you want to move. This is the smallest list of the nine personality types. While a lot of Taylor Swift songs could fall under this personality type, most of them tend to fall under another type better, hence why this list is so small.
I'm Only Me When I'm With You
Forever & Always
Ours
22
We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together
Message in a Bottle
All You Had to Do Was Stay
Wonderland
Gorgeous
Paper Rings
London Boy
Lavender Haze
Bejeweled
Paris
TYPE 8: THE CHALLENGER
The challenger is a powerful and self-confident person. This person tends to be dominating - you're always aware of their presence when they walk in the room. They are decisive and willful, and oftentimes tend to be confrontational. The songs under this category tend to be confrontational and angry. Many are songs where she is feeling confident in herself. These songs tend to have a lot of energy, but aren't as happy and energetic as Type 7 songs.
Should've Said No
Fearless
You're Not Sorry
Mine
Dear John
Haunted
Superman
State of Grace
Red
Better Man
Out of the Woods
Bad Blood
...Ready For It?
Dancing with Our Hands Tied
Dress

Babe
TYPE 9: THE PEACEMAKER
The peacemaker is easygoing and self-effacing. They are receptive and really good listeners. They are agreeable and complacent, and they tend to avoid conflict as much as possible. The songs in this category are ones where Taylor is easygoing, calm, and agreeable. She tends to be open to listening to the other person's point of view in these songs, as well.
Our Song
Love Story
The Best Day
Today Was a Fairytale
Back to December
Never Grow Up

Come Back... Be Here
This Love

It's times like these, when Grian refers to snails as molluscs and gastropods, that I remember he has a degree in marine biology. In retrospect this makes the fishing arc funnier I think.

I've gotta say that there is no better achievement as a neurodivergent person than hyperfixating on a character for so long that you are known as "the 'insert character name here' person"

"Average Tumblr user has fucked a train" factoid is actually just a statistical error. The Mechanisms fandom, who fuck 10,000 trains every Friday, are outliers and should not have been counted.

I think there's no greater indication that disco elysium is sympathetic towards communism when it literally says "communism is failure" and then the literal gameplay itself rewards trying and failing. The most obvious one being the Shivers check at the FELD mural, which is an Impossible 20 check BUT opens itself up again and again the longer you spend in the world doing things, but even just looking at sheer probabilities, for any given white check, rolling first and THEN putting a point into that skill upon failure is more likely to grant you success than putting a point first and then rolling, but that would require failing first.
Other things too: Precarious world saying you'll 100% fail red checks no matter what (not necessarily a bad thing, btw!! throwing the boule into the sea is a success but like. in some other ways one would want a perfect petanque throw instead. but people wouldn't typically assume that failure is desirable sometimes from the start) persuading you to accept that you'll fail some things that is irrevocable, for a world where everything is just a tiny bit easier.
The faux game over screen when you faint after reading Dora's letter— emulating a sense of failure on the scale of the entire game. When it rolls up most people go "What?? Game over?? No way, what did I do wrong!!" and waking up after that, with no huge or lasting impact on Harry's health or morale really tells the player, "Sometimes things will seem so bad that it all seems like it's coming to an end, but it's not the end, it's really not the end, go drink so water, you can still go on despite this failure"
I'm sure there are other things as well that are eluding me but like. The literal gameplay rewards failing and succeeding far more so than simply succeeding every single time, and I think you get a fuller experience of Elysium that way too
