I've enjoyed a lot of media throughout my life, but only some have gotten me interested enough to spend hours analyzing it. that's what this shrine is for!
Taylor Swift (Debut) (self-titled)(pls release the TV girl im begging u) came out in 2007 when I was too young to remember anything. look at her she was so young ;_; anyway my number one track is I'm Only Me When I'm With You bc it's such a perfect friends-to-lovers song but it could also be read as platonic like come ON that's SO cute! plus I love the butterflies this aesthetic is peak
Fearless (Taylor's Version) came out in 2021, and hands down Mr. Perfectly Fine is the best track I will not take arguments on this matter it's FINAL. You Belong With Me is a rlly close second though it's great for animatics! fun fact I actually have an acrylic charm of this album on a cassette tape and I attached it to my snow coat bc the zipper was too small; fairytale vibes mixed with Romeo and Juliet shenanigans
Speak Now (Taylor's Version) came out in 2023 and fun fact I actually own this as a shirt cause my bro got it for me for Christmas, I also love that this one's purple-coded (purple is the best color no I won't elaborate). the first song I discovered was Ours but some of my favorite tracks are The Story of Us, Mean, Innocent, Speak Now, Back To December and Never Grow Up. this one's just so iconic omg
Red (Taylor's Version) came out in 2021 and I distinctly remember listening to it a lot at my first job working at Zenwich, plus the song Red was my number one track in my Spotify wrapped in 2024 bc it's underrated. obviously I'm one of those people that thinks her 10 minute version of "All Too Well" will always be her magnum opus but my other favorites are IBYTAM, IKYWT, WANGBT, and especially Better Man
1989 (Taylor's Version) came out in 2023 and it's really good, hard to pick a favorite but it's probably Out of the Woods tbh (I could also go on a long rant abt This Love and what I pair it with for hours don't TEST me) closely followed by Bad Blood ft. Kendrick Lamar, Wildest Dreams, Clean, Shake It Off, HYGTG, Blank Space, I Know Places, and Say Don't Go which was really high on my wrapped last year
reputation came out in 2017 which was also known as Voltron year in my history books. favorite track is Getaway Car and favorite part is the last verse which I feel like is super rare but this is why I can't trust myself to drive. chef's kiss this whole album is a masterpiece, it's like a combination of a cheesy horror comedy and an exaggerated romance (I mean this with my whole chest, reputation is THE funniest album)
Lover came out in 2019 and it's definitely my favorite album bc I'm basic lmao (it's also somewhat associated with the movie It that released the same year) and my favorite track is 19 PSYCHE THERES A 19TH TRACK HAHAHAHAHAHA seriously tho I love every single song but if I had to list a few it would be Cruel Summer, MA&THP, Cornelia Street, Lover ft. Shawn Mendes, YNTCD, and DBATC
folklore came out in 2020 and cardigan slaps, illicit affairs slaps, so does mirrorball, and exile, like c'mon obviously u have to be in the right headspace but folklore's really cool pls check it out if you haven't! its great to listen to while you write. it looks like she took this photo at the arboretum. also off topic but I associate this one with my cousin who said this one and Midnights were her 2 favorite albums
evermore also came out in 2020 and taught us that it's okay to murder people as long as you clean it up. also the best track is right where you left me I will loop that shit until I frickin die omfg (other favorites of mine are willow, tolerate it- oh my god don't get me STARTED on that one- and 'tis the damn season. this album is like 90% autumn 10% everything associated with the autumn season
Midnights came out in 2022 and it has more tracks that aren't listed on the cover so don't be fooled; my favorite is Would've, Could've, Should've but Karma and YOYOK are also really good. it's also just generally got great vibes bc it's supposed to be about staying up late and that is something that I generally don't like to do. girl what's ur routine do u sleep at all im worried
THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT came out in 2024, and I remember that day bc it was the night I went to a concert and I had to go on a plane the next day so I offline-downloaded it on Spotify and I immediately fell in love with WAOLOM (and I would've loved ICDIWABH too if SOMEONE didn't traumatize me lol). my other faves are imgonnagetyouback, Florida!!! feat. Florence + The Machine, TSMWEL, The Alchemy, and Down Bad
