I am not obsessed with any of the songs that are out so far, but how many of you ranked "Change" high enough that it is still in this? lol. It is easily her worst song.

"Blank Space" won the overall Taylor Swift rankdown last year! But I wasn't here last year now was I? ;) But now I’m here ;)

Blank Space is one of the few decent songs on 1989 and I didn't participate in the Taylor rankdown previously so I'll be helping it this time around too :)

Glad JTF didn't get knocked out before the other new tracks from the Platinum Edition, it was the only keeper out of them for me.

#15. "The Best Day"
Points: 244 Average: 12.129 Standard Deviation: 4.49187Hidden Message: God bless Andrea Swift"The Best Day" becomes the first song from the standard edition of the album to be eliminated. No one loses a #1 here, but it takes someguy's #2 with it, as well as two #19 ranks. This song is a tribute to her mom (as you can tell by the hidden message in the liner notes her mom's name is Andrea) who has been by her side her whole life. I really love this song and love the lyrics, but her vocals are a bit too shaky for my liking, so that's why it gets a #10 rank from me. It even got a music video, which is the one I have in this post. It peaked at #3 on the Bubbling Under chart upon the release of Fearless.

The Best Day is very cute and innocent, man it's so refreshing to listen to a track like this after reputation(I love reputation though, no hate)

I didn't expect "The Best Day" to rank high, but I'm a bit surprised it's the first out from the standard album.

#14. "Change"
Points: 260 Average: 11.6129 Standard Deviation: 4.66751 Hidden Message: You made things change for me
Now this is an elimination some people might have been waiting for! It appears that there were four people who ranked "Change" as their #19. This had the lowest highest rank for a song (#4) out of all the songs in this rankdown, which means every elimination is going to hurt more for someone going forward! This song was used for the 2008 Beijing Olympics and became Taylor's first top 10 single, peaking at #10 on the Hot 100.

I just couldn't get past how bad her vocals were on this song. I think that is the worst she has ever sounded on a recording.

#13. "Jump Then Fall"
Points: 272 Average: 11.2903 Standard Deviation: 4.99156Hidden Message: Last summer was magicalNow we're down to one song from the Platinum Edition as it's the end of the road for "Jump Then Fall". castleoblivion26 becomes the next person to lose a #1, while dub loses a #19. This was constantly on the cusp of top 10 until dub tanked its chances of making the top 10. It's a very light-hearted song and a pleasant listen in my opinion, and I might have underranked it a bit. It debuted at #10 on the Hot 100 and charted at #59 on country radio when the Platinum Edition came out.

One of the people who were happy to see "Change" get eliminated will lose a #1 next (well one person just did but another person will!)...

Damn, I'm doing bad at this. I guess it's because I tanked a lot of the middle songs.

#12. "Tell Me Why"
Points: 295 Average: 10.4839 Standard Deviation: 4.78486 Hidden Message: Guess I was fooled by your smile
The next song to get eliminated is "Tell Me Why", which used to be my least favorite Taylor Swift song at one point along with "I Heart ?". And then "Girl at Home" came along. But I grew to really like this song over the years, and it finished above 8 songs for a #11 ranking from me. This song is the first song to be revealed that does not have a #19 rank. This stooped to as low as #15 but it was able to recover to escape from the teens.

#11. "The Way I Loved You"
Points: 303 (tied with #10) Average: 10.2258 Standard Deviation: 4.44108 (5th lowest SD) Hidden Message: We can't go back
This song was tied in terms of points with the #10 song, but someone's #1 rank for that song saved the #10 song from falling out of the top 10 and kept this song at #11. That means someone's losing a #1 right off the bat once we move into the top 10! This song was always a contender for the top 10 but it lost steam at the end. It charted at #72 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Well you're going to have to blame the person/people who put the #10 song at #1 because the #10 song and the #11 song were tied in points!

I am assuming most of you did inverse rankings since I see Tell Me Why and The Way I Loved You out already. Guys #1 is the BEST song, not the worst :).
