Everyone knows that listening to a Taylor Swift song opens the emotional flood gates. Yes, a lot of her songs are about a breakup or an experience with a guy, but they have the ability speak to each and every one of us in a different way. Whether you are happy or sad, want to either cry, laugh or scream her lyrics with your best friends, there is a Taylor song for that. Here are some of my favorites on my playlist:
The Typical Breakup Songs:
Yup. You broke up, and what else is there to do other than cry, eat your feelings and hate on him to your best friend. Most of her songs apply to this specific category... but these are some of my favorites. Here are some songs that will def get the tears rollin’.
1. “Forever & Always” (if you’re feeling super nostalgic, try the piano version)
2. “Back to December”
3. "Last Kiss”
4. ”Come Back… Be Here”
“Now’s the Time to Cry My Eyes Out” Songs:
*Cue tears* Guarantee these songs will get the waterworks to show, even if you’re an emotionless person. Sometimes we all just need a good cry.
1. “Dear John"
2. “Teardrops on my Guitar”
3. “Cold As You”
4. “Forever & Always” (refer to Typical Breakup Songs)
This is the greatest stage in a girl’s life. When you finally see he sucks and you say to yourself “I am better than him.” Girl power!!!
1. “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”
2. “Should’ve Said No”
3. “Picture to Burn”
4. “Bad Blood”
The Songs For When You Find a New Crush:
AH, what an exciting time in the life of a girl. Got your eyes on another fella, and your heart races every time you see him. Butterflies and excitement, these songs will for sure keep your mood upbeat.
1. “Sparks Fly”
2. “Enchanted”
3. “Style”
4. “Today Was A Fairytale”
When Another Girl Has Your Man Songs:
This is actually the worst. When you spy another girl with your boy. Giiiiirl. You don’t know who you’re messing with.
1. “Better Than Revenge”
2. “Speak Now”
3.“Blank Space”
When You’re In Love:
I think this one is self explanatory. If you don't feel like turning on the radio and listening to the latest about being in love, turn these on. So when you’re lucky enough to actually call someone yours, listen here.
1. “Mine”
2. “Our Song”
3. “Love Story”
4. “Wonderland”
When You Feel Like Dancing:
These are the songs you jam to, windows down with your best friends. Lowkey we all want to be a part of Taylor’s squad, so when you listen to these songs, just pretend.
1. “Shake It Off”
2. “22”
3. “Change”
4.“Stay Beautiful”
Thank you Taylor, for being fearless and unafraid to put your feelings into song. Reliant on these beats to either pick us up or help us cope, your music is always there.
