This is why I'm kind of holding off on playing it. I love the album and don't want another song to damper it (looking at you, exile).

Invisible string Exile The lakes (I’m shocked people don’t love this!) Mirrorball Seven This is me trying August Illicit affairs Cardigan Peace my tears ricochet Mad woman The 1 Last great American dynasty Betty Epiphany Hoax this was really hard, I don’t feel like any of the bottom tier deserve to be there but some of the others are too strong. This may be my current AOTY.

I like the guitar in dynasty and it’s what mostly drives my listening to it. Vocals and lyrics are fine.

Having jumped on the Taylor Swift bandwagon fairly late (1989), I never expected to enjoy one of her albums as much as I enjoy this one. It really is phenomenal.
