Wow, that took a lot of energy to compile this list, and honestly, my favorite songs/albums are not set in stone. The beauty of Taylor Swift as an artist is that she has a magical way of telling stories. Her songwriting ability is able to translate into any genre or sound that she wants it to. I can’t wait to add to this list as the re-recordings continue to come out and we get even more tracks from the vault!
