3 of my bottom 6 are out...
#12: If This Was a Movie: I like the melody and production on it quite a lot, cute message, but the lyrics to express that message are not as good as on most of Taylor's songs #16: Never Grow Up: This song did get to me on some of the first few times I listened to it, but now that I've listened to it about 50 times it has less of an effect so it gets a lower ranking due to the basic melody and production #17: Superman: Cute song about putting someone on a pedestal and hoping they notice you, I've been there too, but kind of over it now, it's fine and all but there's nothing about it that really grabs me

I was so sure about this leaving early. Y’all see “album bonus track” and tank the song :(
ITWAM is amazing. Thank you deepston for boosting it and also f.u. Norman for not being basic for once and tanking the song.
My #4 is another Top 5 song I will lose before the top 10 and after that, I’m gonna be fine, I guess.

Well I may have given it a #12 ranking but I still played ITWAM twice as often as any non-Taylor song in the last 6 months according to my last.fm, and I ranked it ahead of 3 singles. I'm still a pretty new fan though and it seems like a grower so I can see myself ranking it higher a year from now.

I don't like any of these songs so I don't really care about any of them being out. But I only like around 6 of the songs on this album so

#14: "Innocent"
Points: 277 (tied with #15) Average: 11.7045 Standard Deviation: 4.3965 Hidden Message: Life is full of little interruptionsThe next song to leave us is "Innocent", which was allegedly written as a response to the infamous incident between Kanye West and Taylor Swift at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. It was premiered at the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards, but was not released until the album's release. Upon its release, it peaked at #27 on the Hot 100. This song used to be one of instant favorites from the album, but it's slipped lower as the years went by. The the pre-chorus (the "wasn't it easier...." part) still gets me though. Leo ✔ unfortunately loses a #2 but five #17s are lost here as well.

I might have put this one a few spots too high. I also liked it better when the album first came out, but it's still a strong song. Haunted and BTR should have been lower than this.

This is fair. While I enjoy the lyrics behind it, the production really drags it down. One off from a perfect ranking.

Wow! I got a perfect ranking!
Forgive me for being excited, this is a rare occurrence for me. I'm so often like 1-2 spots off perfect.

The next song I am very sad that it finished this low. It also has the highest standard deviation of the whole rankdown.

I'm not surprised to see it out now even though I like it quite a lot. I'm guessing Mean and BTR will be out soon too?

#13: "Last Kiss"
Points: 334 Average: 10.4091 Standard Deviation: 5.0593 (HIGHEST SD!!!) Hidden Message: Forever and always
Leaving us at #13 is yet another song about Joe Jonas, "Last Kiss". The liner note refers to the song "Forever & Always" from Fearless, which is about her breakup with Joe Jonas. Taylor revealed that Joe broke up with her with a 27-second phone call, and Taylor being the petty person she is, made the intro to this song 27 seconds! This song charted on the Hot 100 at #71 on the album's release week. I personally think this is one of the best from this album (as seen in my #2 rank), so I'm very sad to see this go out this early. We begin our #1 purge here as three people lose a #1.

"Last Kiss" is flawless. Deserved much better. I also love "Innocent" but I'm not surprised by the ranking.

#12: "Better Than Revenge"
Points: 336 Average: 10.3636 Standard Deviation: 4.3514 Hidden Message: You thought I would forget
Finally, my #17!!! I'm bitter that this moved up to #12 at the last minute ahead of "Last Kiss"! Anyways, this song is also allegedly about Joe Jonas, but this time it's referring to Joe's relationship Camilla Belle who Joe dumped Taylor for. The line "she's better known for the things does she does on the mattress" is supposedly referring to her. This song peaked at #56 on the Hot 100 upon the album's release. I'm surprised this didn't end up being more polarizing than this (it has the 8th highest standard deviation).

This should have been out earlier. It's the track that lost its luster the first for me.

Nope to "Last Kiss" leaving already. I didn't think it would do mega-well or anything, but I at least thought it was good enough to make the top 10 here.

#11: "Long Live"
Points: 365 Average: 9.7045 Standard Deviation: 4.2018 Hidden Message: For you
The last song to miss the top 10 is Taylor's tribute to her team and people who have supported her on her journey to get to where he is. It's almost an anthemic track which I feel works great as a closer to the standard version of the album. It charted at #85 on the Hot 100 upon the album's release, and subsequently released as a single in Brazil (the Paula Fernandes version) where it peaked at #5 in airplay. As a result, if you count this as a single, "Long Live" is the first one to leave us. It was in the lower regions of the top 10 for most of the submission process, until it slipped out of the top 10. It put up a very good fight for a top 10 finish but ended up 6 points short.

No strong opinion on this one, but mess @ Haunted being in the top 10.
