Happy Birthday Taylor Swift: Top 7 Songs That Swifties Should Know By Heart

Taylor Swift is, without a doubt, one of the best-selling artists of all time and her massive fanbase proudly calls themselves ‘Swifties’.

New Delhi: Taylor Swift is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the best-selling artists of all time. Clearly, Taylor has emerged as a major cultural influence, thanks to her infectious melodies. She has successfully traversed the genres of country, pop, and beyond, all while creating a body of work that is uniquely her own. 

The pop singer has been making fantastic music for over two decades and her massive fanbase proudly calls themselves ‘Swifties’. It's as if she can read our minds or something! And put it in a song that people can relate to. 

On her 33rd birthday, we've compiled a list of Taylor Swift's 7 best songs which every swiftie should know by heart: 

You Belong With Me

‘You Belong With Me’ helped make Taylor Swift a household name. The song's naivete is endearing and refreshing, and it's clear that it was written by teenagers. The inherent assurance makes this one of her most adored tracks, and possibly the purest joy to listen to. 

This song helped her win Best Female Video at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. (This is where Kanye West publicly interrupted Taylor Swift's acceptance speech to express his displeasure with her victory and support for Beyoncé.)

Call It What You Want

The songwriting of ‘Call It What You Want’ is among Swift's finest. This is the first track from Swift's sixth studio album, Reputation. The powerful lines from the song depict the wonderful vision of Taylor slowly restoring her reputation.

Her unapologetic ability to draw inspiration from the world around her makes this song an ideal track to feel confident.

Lover

Taylor thrives on the complexities of love. Her music may have changed over time, but this theme will always be at its core. Taylor bares her soul once again, but this time she sings about the adorable little things that make a relationship seem secure. In the lyrics, she talks about all signs of a happy relationship.

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together

The sarcasm and witticisms in this song is unparalleled. ‘We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together’ is so good that Rolling Stone ranked it as the second greatest song of 2012.

Listening to this song on repeat is the best way to celebrate the end of a bad relationship and the decision to never go back to them.

The 1

Taylor Swift's album, Folklore, includes the song ‘The 1’ as its first single. This song is a journey through Taylor's prior love wounds. The emotional scars always remind her of traumatic events. Evidently, she is not feeling too upbeat about the fact that love failed. Yet she is not going to let it hold her back. This tragic event really helped her develop.

The song's lyrics have the potential to make you feel emotional, but they also make you want to let go.

Everything Has Changed

From her 2012 album Red, ‘Everything Has Changed’ is a prime example of just how much has changed. Sheeran collaborated on the song's writing and also provided vocals. In all honesty, the song is about how a fortuitous encounter transformed her life from boring to extraordinary. 

Sheeran and Swift's heartfelt song is about the instantaneous and profound ways in which love can alter your life.

Back To December

The song ‘Back to December’ is the first time Taylor has felt the need to publicly apologise to an ex-lover. One of her actual past relationships served as an inspiration for her piece.

The song is an attempt to evoke sentimental feelings.
