This is a good choice and all, BUT I wanted Out Of The Woods next. Every single that should be released always gets tossed aside.

She was doing so well with single choices this era. What a shame.

I wanted Out of The Woods or New Romantics. This and All You Had To Do Was Stay are my least favorites on the album.

I bet it's coming after Bad Blood. People may disagree with this as much as they want to but a remix would breathe life into the era allowing for it to have more singles. Taylor's going on tour next month and she's probably not even promoting this. An (already) radio monster featuring someone else that's hot would propel this to the top, dominating airwaves this summer, leaving radio thirsty for more, thus increasing chances of whatever song being released next to do well. Nothing else on the album is as "safe" as this, so it will ride the wave. If that's OOTW, it'll benefit tremendously from following 1 hugely successful single, as opposed to two mild hits.

Knew this was 4th since like last December. Glad we can finally put all those 4th single choice discussions to rest.
I joked a few weeks back that this remix would actually be Kanye and Katy, but now I'm honestly starting to think I may have been onto something. Or it's just Katy. Either way that would be massive and it will shoot straight to #1.

I had a feeling this would be next. I prefer "New Romantics" and "WD" by far, but "BB" does feel more like a summer single than either of those or "OotW" (which is obviously popular even if I don't care for it).
I've actually come to like "BB," in the same way that I like "SIO" or most Katy/Rihanna-type singles that are catchy but not what I'd call good exactly. But most pop artists have their share of radio bait, and this will end up a smash.

While I like the song, as it's rather catchy, these have to be some of the most immature lyrics sung by a 20 something. The chorus honestly sounds like a 13 year old wrote it. Definitely nowhere near as good as Style or Blank Space, but at least better than Shake It Off, which was absolutely annoying.

I already didn't like this song, but now a remix with Kanye? Now I'm gonna have nightmares.

FINALLY! This should have been 3rd!! Looks liek Scott Borchetta read my tweets im guessing its gonna be Justin Timberlake, he's the only voice i can imagine that would fit the song Another #1, this should open doors for her in rhythmic/urban radio and HOPEFULLY influence her next album!

This is probably the most polarizing song in 1989. Not a huge fan of this, but oh well, now, OOTW and WD please. If not, IKP could be the fall single instead of OOTW.

Does anyone else hate Katy Perry, or have a feud with her?

Taylor finally won me over a bit with "Style" but here we go again with more dreaded radio filler. I agree with @touch that hopefully a remix means better production since this will likely be drilled in our heads all summer. Taylor and Calvin seem even more awkward as musical collaborators than they do as love interests, but perhaps he could improve things significantly. I think Kanye would create a far more interesting sound for this though.

I never unserstood the extreme distaste for this song. Sure, lyrically it is a bit subpar and maybe it is a little vanilla, but so is 90% of what's popular/played on the radio these days. Maybe it's because Taylor is held to such a high standard.

Maybe it's because Taylor is held to such a high standard. I still suspect the distaste would be less if people thought it was just another song about a boy, instead of a pop-diva rivalry. Taylor is held to a certain standard by her fans, and I think when she teased the subject matter people set even higher expectations than normal and the song didn't live up to that. Taylor's writing is usually more specific and has a distinct story-telling aspect, whereas BB is, well, like 90% of what is popular these days. It's written a lot more broadly and doesn't tell a story so much as it's just Taylor talking about how she feels wronged. But it's always been one of my most favorite tracks from the album, so I am happy with this choice and am rooting for it to do well. I hope the supposed guest feature is Kendrick.

I'm still convinced this song may be poorly written for a reason.
My least favorite song on the album by far. With that said, a good remix and the summer can make it so I don't change the channel when it comes on. A killer video would help too.

Literally can't with it maybe being Cher Lloyd - although I do LOVE her.
Has anyone thrown out Jay Z? Think I read that it's not Kanye but someone "just as good" so .... hmmmm....

Gonna call bulls**t but if it's true then she must want this era dead.
I'm gonna take a shot in the dark and guess Nicki.
