All of the songs were written well, and sounded good as well. She did amazing on this album, and I’m excited for more to come.

Personal Favorites 

“Maroon”- I loved this song. Taylor’s voice was amazing, and the lyrics were great. 

“Anti-Hero”- Oh my god, this song is amazing. The music video is amazing, and it has great messages in it. It is probably my favorite track on the album. 

“You’re On Your Own Kid”- Favorite song to cry to on this album. The lyrics are so emotion-filled and powerful. I love it so much. 

“Labrynth” - Yes, just yes. The lyrics, the music, and the vocals are just to die for. It’s definitely one of my favorites. 

“Sweet Nothings”- I love this song. The music in the back sounds so adorable, and the lyrics are also so cute. I know some people don’t like this song, but I do. I may be its biggest fan. 

“Mastermind”-  This may be the best song on the album actually. The story behind the lyrics and the whole song itself is just show stopping.
“Bejewlewd” -  Best music video of the album. It basically confirmed that Speak Now is the next album to be remade, and I’m excited already. Taylor looked so good in the music video, and I loved all of the easter eggs in it.
