With 12 full-lengths under her belt, Taylor Swift has released seven albums that include songs that reflect each album’s name: “Fearless,” “Speak Now,” “Red,” “Lover,” “evermore,” “The Tortured Poets Department” and “The Life of a Showgirl.” Right now, only three – “Fearless,” “Red” and “Lover” – became official singles. The rest linger in the deep cuts, but certainly fan favorites, of her work.
Spanning her career from 2008’s Fearless to 2025’s The Life of a Showgirl – currently enjoying its sixth week atop the Billboard 200 – her title tracks show the breadth and depth of her sonic evolution, from her country roots to her pop superstardom, with her signature storytelling lyricism on display.
(And don’t worry about the five albums without a title track: She shows them love in other ways. Debut doesn’t mention her name, but she later shouts herself out on both “22” from Red and “Clara Bow” from The Tortured Poets Department; 1989 never received a lyrical callback, but her famous introduction to its world tour does: “My name is Taylor and I was born in 1989!”; Reputation tracks “End Game” and “Delicate” as well as Speak Now’s “Superman” reference reputation; evermore’s “gold rush” includes “My mind turns your life into folklore”; and mentions of midnight abound throughout her catalog, but only “Anti-Hero” and “Midnight Rain” from Midnights and Rep’s “New Year’s Day” contain the actual word.)

Hot 100 Peak: 57The album’s closer – exclusive of the deluxe version – offers a piano-laden ballad of heartbreak and confusion (“I replay my footsteps on each stepping stone / Trying to find the one where I went wrong / Writing letters / Addressed to the fire,” Swift sings) with Justin Vernon’s angsty falsetto floating through the bridge. It’s a gorgeous duet held back only by their superior pairing on “exile” and its quieter existence in the Swift universe.

Hot 100 Peak: 8The grandiose duet reflects on fame and what it takes to rise – and stay on top. “I took her pearls of wisdom, hung them from my neck / I paid my dues with every bruise, I knew what to expect,” Swift states proudly. “Do you wanna take a skate on the ice inside my veins? / They ripped me off like false lashes and then threw me away,” Carpenter lilts with a sweet but vicious edge.

Hot 100 Peak: 8, 33Swift expertly captures the panic of watching someone walk down the aisle to the wrong person in the emotionally charged “Speak Now.” “There’s a silence, there’s my last chance / I stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on me / Horrified looks from everyone in the room / But I’m only lookin’ at you,” she sings with a baited apprehension on the country-rock tune.

Hot 100 Peak: 10On the tender and romantic serenade – perfect for a wedding day dance – Swift professes her desire to capture a partner’s heart “forever and ever.” Despite the overlying tension of the questions: “Can I go where you go? Can we always be this close?,” the beauty of the deeply confessional rumination rings true.

Hot 100 Peak: 9, 71All the feelings of the rush of a first romance that makes you brave, this country sparkler dazzles in its earnest recounting of what makes young love so powerful. “And I don’t know how it gets better than this / You take my hand and drag me head first, fearless / And I don’t know but with you, I’d dance / In a storm in my best dress, fearless,” she chants boldly.

Hot 100 Peak: 4Rife with modern-day imagery (“You smoked then ate seven bars of chocolate / We declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist”) and flush with the anxiety of a fleeting relationship, Swift swells to an uneasy admission: “And who’s gonna hold you, like me?” As she says, “No f—ing body.”

Hot 100 Peak: 6, 25An anthemic mix of guitars and banjos with an outsized synth-pop overlay, Taylor wrenches open her feelings and lets them free on “Red” – a poetic masterpiece of frenzied, colorful passion. “Losing him was blue, like I’d never known / Missing him was dark gray, all alone / Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met / But loving him was red,” she sings.
