For the past week, I have been binge listening to Taylor Swift's Newest album whenever I get the chance.
Originally I was hooked on "The Man" and had some reservations when it came to her preppy songs like "Paper Rings" or the slower songs like "It's Nice To Have A Friend," but slowly and surely I grudgingly let those stream on my Spotify and fell in love with every single song.
This list was extremely arduous to cultivate, because, if I could, I would divvy up all the songs and set them into three categories, or levels of how I favor them.
I still don't 100% have a favorite or least favorite just ideas of which I stream the most. So with that, here's my best to worst ranking of the songs on "Lover."
1. "I Think He Knows"
Favorite Lyrics:
"He got my heartbeat
Skipping down 16th Avenue"
2. "London Boy"
Favorite Lyrics:
"They say home is where the heart is
But God, I love the English"
3. "The Man"
Favorite Lyrics:
"I'd be just like Leo, in Saint-Tropez"
4. "Cruel Summer"
Favorite Lyrics:
"Devils roll the dice
Angels roll their eyes
And if I bleed
You'll be the last to know"
5. "Lover"
Favorite Lyrics:
"Can I go where you go?

Favorite Lyrics:
When you jumped in first, I went in tooI'm with you even if it makes me blue"

Favorite Lyrics:
"But then you called, showed your hand
I turned around before I hit the tunnel
Sat on the roof, you and I"
8. "Miss Americana And The Heartbreak Prince"
Favorite Lyrics:
"You know I adore you
I'm crazier for you
Then I was at sixteen
Lost in a film scene
Waving homecoming queens
Marching band playing
I'm lost in the lights"
9. "I Forgot That You Existed"
Favorite Lyrics:
"I forgot that you existed
And I thought that it would kill me, but it didn't"
10. "Death By A Thousand Cuts"
