Join our scavenger hunt for a chance to attend Taylor’s show on May 27.
You heard it here first: “‘Tis the damn season” to celebrate Taylor Swift’s birthday! Now that we’ve come “Back To December,” we’ve rounded up some of Taylor’s most beloved lyrics — from her self-titled debut album back in 2006, all the way up to her latest musical masterpiece, Midnights.
Now prepare to be “Enchanted”… Are you ready for it?
Hear Hits by Taylor Swift and More on the SXM App
From the earliest days of her career, Taylor has used her lyrics to convey the deepest of heartache and betrayal. These lines about the hopefulness of youth transport us straight back to our teenage years.
From the lyrics about her first day at school to her first kiss, this song still hits us like a sucker punch. Taylor’s power lies in the way she can recall her younger years with pitch-perfect clarity.
These bittersweet lyrics remind us to never dull our shine for anyone. “Dear John” became an instant classic over a decade ago, and we have a feeling that its re-release on the hotly-anticipated Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) will be life-changing.
Of course, we also mean the 10-minute version. These lyrics have become a cultural institution, and the short film has racked up almost 80 million views in the year since its release!
Taylor’s first full pop album is, unsurprisingly, full of absolute bops. “Blank Space” addresses rumors about her love life with a tongue-in-cheek nonchalance that powers through into her next album. This line also sparked a misheard-lyric phenomenon, which even had Taylor’s mom singing, “All the lonely Starbucks lovers.”
There’s only so much heartbreak one girl can take. With these lyrics, Taylor rises from the ashes, revealing a bigger and badder persona. She plots some good old-fashioned revenge in what many believe to be a reference to her longstanding beef with a certain rapper.
These lyrics capture the magic of feeling like you’ve known someone forever — even if you’ve only just met. It’s beautiful when you feel truly comfortable with someone you love, and we’ll listen to Taylor sing about it all day long.
In a piano ballad for the ages, Taylor and Bon Iver come together to offer a heart-wrenching tale of the kind of heartbreak that takes far too long to sink in.
Check out Bastille’s beautiful cover of the song here:
Harking back to her country roots, Taylor takes a page out of The Chicks’ book in this murder-revenge story. Joined by HAIM, her sisters in crime, Taylor lays out the signs of infidelity before the story takes an even darker turn.
No number of fire emojis could ever possibly convey just how hard these lyrics go in the latest Taylor Swift era of dreamy, atmospheric pop.
Here’s what Ryan Reynolds had to say about his family’s love for the album, “swear words included”:
If you’re mad for Midnights, you’ll find the best of today’s pop music with SiriusXM Hits 1 (Ch 2). For a throwback to “Tim McGraw”-era Taylor, we think Women of Country could be your new fave channel.
