Pulse Rankdown - Taylor Swift

[chicken077]

Inspired by Sam's idea as well as Mark's Taylor Swift DZ a while back - all the songs here also made the DZ Mark created. This is for my queen Taylor...





(btw, if you guys feel there's too many Rankdowns at this moment, feel free to reply and I'll probably postpone the due date of this until after OneRepublic rankdown)

Songlist (Taken from Mark's DZ - I believe "New Romantics" was soon added. If you guys wanna add "Highway Don't Care" or "I Don't Wanna Live Forever", I could definitely add them. I will make a YT playlist sometime because Tay's songs are not on Spotify sadly.)

"22"
"Back To December"
"Bad Blood"
"Begin Again"
"Blank Space"
"Change"
"Crazier"
"Everything Has Changed"
"Eyes Open"
"Fearless"
"Fifteen"
"I Knew You Were Trouble"
"Love Story"
"Mean"
"Mine"
"New Romantics"
"Our Song"
"Ours"
"Out Of The Woods"
"Picture To Burn"
"Red"
"Ronan"
"Safe & Sound"
"Shake It Off"
"Should've Said No"
"Sparks Fly"
"Speak Now"
"State Of Grace"
"Style"
"Sweeter Than Fiction"
"Teardrops On My Guitar"
"The Story Of Us"
"Tim McGraw"
"Today Was A Fairytale"
"We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together"
"White Horse"
"Wildest Dreams"
"You Belong With Me"

It is best to listen to all songs before voting, but I can't force you to, so oh well lmao. There are 38 songs as of now, and if we add "Highway Don't Care" and "I Don't Wanna Live Forever", it will be 40 songs. Please pm me (username: chicken077) your rankings 1 - 38 (or 40 if we decide so). The deadline for now will be Christmas Day, December 25, 2016 at 11:59pm PST. I would like to post the results during Winter Break and before I go back to school on 1/9/2017. But I could postpone the due date if you guys think there's too many rankdowns at this moment. Have fun!!!

Add The Story Of Us and Today Was A Fairytale too.

Got it, just added

[chicken077]

Just made the YouTube playlist for all 38 songs. I will add "Highway Don't Care" and/or "I Don't Wanna Live Forever" if you guys wish

Taylor Swift Playlist!

Idk how to embed a playlist on here, so hopefully that doesn't cause too many inconveniences... Have fun listening and hopefully you'll be a bigger fan of Taylor's or find that maybe Taylor isn't that bad lol

Note: DO NOT rank your songs based on the videos. I only used videos because Taylor doesn't have her songs on Spotify. Some videos aren't even official music videos, they're just fan made lyric videos. Besides, this rankdown isn't meant to be the rankdown of videos. Rank your songs SOLELY based on how much enjoy the SONG.

I cant decide only a fav song of Tay... ;-;

[born]

I actually thought of doing this but I was pretty sure that everyone's going to hate me on this.

Now I'm emo af for not being the one who's hosting this. Maybe I'll host a Beyoncé / Rihanna themed one after my Billboard 200 Top 50 albums of 2016 one


Edit: I really want IDWLF to be on this but we're going to be kinda biased cause it's fresh and we're listening to this 24/7. So let's pass.

Making my list should be really really easy

Haha I was debating on whether or not I should do this too But because I really wanted to do one and Sam took all the YE ones, I was like, "why not do one for my Queen Taylor?" and I realized that there was a Tay DZ already, so I just took the songlist from there

Yeah I agree... IDWLF just came out and didn't go through the entire course of rise, peak, getting old, etc. so I don't think it's really appropriate for now...

Haha I actually have too many Tay songs I love so it's gonna be hard making my list lmao (I don't even know what to put as my #1 as I couldn't finish the preference picker thing - I'm like stuck on a few choices ), but we'll see how it goes!

[chicken077]

Reserved post for tags. I'll tag everyone who participated in the 2015 YE DZ on Wednesday after my Physics final. This is not due in a while so hopefully it'll be fine (or if anyone can help me on tags, that would me very much appreciated!)

Just for the sake of completeness, I tagged everyone that participated in the 2015 YE DZ plus a few that didn't participated but commented on that thread. (I might have missed a few). So feel free to ignore this if you have already sent me rankings, and feel free to tag anyone that may be interested/is a Swiftie. But that taglist was included just for completion...

[Sambalada]

Thanks! This is very exciting!

It's gonna be very hard ranking songs in the top half, songs in the bottom... not so hard

[born]

I think we should definitely include "Both Of Us" & "Highway Don't Care" but if we do that, we're going to have to include "Half Of My Heart", "The Best Days Of Your Life", and all of her collaborations as well

[born]

*Sorry for double posting* I have my chart ready but
1.I feel like I'm dissappointing all the just-country Taylor stans because most of the 1989 singles are in my Top 10.
2.I don't know if we're going to include the collabs

[Raccoon]

Please remind me to do this if I don't by Christmas

[Deleted]

Interesting idea i might do this for some other artists!

[.indulgecountry]

No collabs please. She barely does anything in some of them, like Highway Don't Care where she just repeats one line over and over.

Haha it's fine, I've received some pretty country Taylor stans putting most of her country stuff above 1989 stuff, so I'm pretty sure it's gonna balance out at the end. And I think we've agreed that we're not doing features... cause although some should technically be counted, it's kinda unfair to her other features tbh... so I'd just leave them out...

haha same... but I do find it sorta hard to do the full list... there's just too much stuff I love from her that I love even songs towards the bottom! And man was that top 5 hard to make

[jtd Thee Stallion]

I'll send mine at a later date..

[Deleted]

I need to re listen to some Taylor Swift songs that I have forgotten how they go or have never heard. If I have not send my list and there is 2 days left to send my list in message me to remind me so I can do it.

What is this magic??!! I have been looking EVERYWHERE for something like this lately! #nightmade 

[born]

I'm going to PM you in a minute!
Hints for my chart:
1. "Red" is my favorite Taylor album but 1/2 of the singles are some of my least favorite Tay songs.
2. The Top 15 includes songs from every one of her albums.
3. I find one of the soundtrack songs great but I ended up ranking it really low. Same with another one of her songs.

As much as I like Rankdowns and starting doing them for artists, I don't think you should start this until the 2014 YE Rankdown is over, it's deadline is also Christmas Day. Extend it to New Years, I'm not busy that last week of the year like I am right now, with Dress Rehearsal after Dress Rehearsal after Dress Rehearsal for the school concert

Disagree!

You're busy?! Does that mean the reveals for 2014 will be delayed?!

Slut.

Didn't you announce the 2014 DZ after the Alternative one?

heh... I do want to get results in before I go back to school though, New Years may seem a bit late for me since organizing all this data (cuz I'm pretty sure I'm gonna get quite a few last minute sends ) and posting all of it, but it's still doable I guess. We'll see how many ppl sends by Christmas, but for now, I think I'm still gonna keep it on Christmas (just to get ppl sending lol and giving me more time to organize the data), and if I have too, I could be flexible about it at the end

[Deleted]

I dont see the problem having 2 rankdowns going on at the same time.

agreed. I mean we have like 20 DZ's going on at the same time and I think we can all agree rankdowns take less time and are less messy than most DZs

Just gonna clarify: I will not change the due date for now, and I will remind everyone on December 23 to turn this in on December 25. If I don't get a lot of answers/get requests for extensions, I may accept late replies, though I do want to post results before winter break ends

I'm busy until Tuesday, but in my spare time I am tallying up the points for 2014 Let's just keep everything the way it is, I can handle two Rankdowns at once, we can do it like DZs, very often.
