Labyrinth is a god tier song Edit: My rankings Tier 1 - You’re on You’re Own Kid (specifically because of production and melody, not lyrics). - Labyrinth (timeless, beautiful melody) - The Great War (addicting melody all throughout the song, lyrics are very good) - Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve (production is amazing, lyrics as well) - Glitch (I love the complexity in the production, a very sensual song, easy to groove to, etc. Don’t like the bridge though. Tier 2: - Lavender Haze (I hate the bridge but I could see it being played at every house party and I’m preparing to get tired of it) - High Infidelity (ok production, love the vocal bridge) - Bigger Than The Whole Sky (amazing lyrics, love the guitar) - Maroon (I like the production, but the use of color in Taylor’s songs/finding things that have that color is getting overused - Midnight Rain (nothing much to say) Tier 3: Paris Snow on the Beach Sweet Nothing Tier 4: - Mastermind (lyrics are kind of juvenile/sounds like something a beginner could’ve wrote) - Karma (love the melody, but Lyrics are also juvenile) - Bejeweled (same reason as Karma) - Question (same reason as Karma, love the bop-ey melody of the bridge though) - Vigilante (the lyrics very much lack depth)
As someone who has experience infant loss and miscarriage, I’ve latched onto Bigger Than The Whole Sky so HARD. Even though I can objectively understand that it’s an odd addition in the context of the story and vibe of Midnights, and it isn’t necessarily about Taylor experiencing that…but I just feel so seen with that song and I will forever be grateful to Taylor for writing it. Isn’t that the wonder of music?
I was initially sceptical about Dear Reader as an opening song but something about “so I wander through these nights…” introducing the album is really clicking with me… it’s like she’s opening a book and starting to tell you the stories of the nights in question. great vid as per!
It took time to grow on me, it used to be a complete automatic skip but once I heard the bridge more I grew to like it enough to not skip. I just find the “Dear Reader” repetition kind of boring. But halfway thru the song it picks up and becomes more interesting lyrically and musically.
@@mave3739 @mave Bro really cut SOTB, Paris, Bigger than the whole sky, Sweet nothing, High inefedility, And kept Question...? and Karma 😃 My personal track order : 1- Anti-Hero 2- Maroon 3- The great war 4- Sweet Nothing 5- WCS 6- SOTB 7- Paris 8- High infedility 9- Bejeweled 10- Lavender Haze 11- Midnight Rain 12- Glitch 13- Labyrinth 14- Mastermind 15- Dear Reader 16- YOYOK I cut Karma, Question...?, Vigilante, Because they belong nowhere but the drafts
Justice for Question...? !!! It is literally the most passive aggressive, insane, fun song on the record. She wrote that song specifically for Harry to hear and to get her message across, and if you get it, you get it! It gives AYHTDWS energy, but more passive aggressive and I love that for her.
people don’t really get the 3AM concept… they’re all deep and sensitive because that’s how 3am feels after the euphoria pf midnight melts down. The fact that those 7 songs are placed as 3am is perfect.
@@theswiftologist yeah Paris not so much but Paris is rarely a song people say should be on the standard edition. The Great War however is about two people going through a difficult time but being able to survive it and move forward. That is definitely “sensitive” and mature topic. Also the production of the song matches more the 3am vibe.
But then we have glitch thats more sensual and just like sayin thats wrong that was a mistake but withouth that much regreat and we also have @@vladleiva4055
Putting Dear Reader in God Tier where she belongs. Thank you for giving her the appreciation she deserves. ‘Bend when you can, snap if you have to’ is one of my favourite lines Taylor’s ever written.
Idk if there's something wrong with me but a primal instinct awakens inside my psyche when "good girl sad boy big city wrong choices..." starts playing. Like I get feral when Question comes on shuffle. She deserves all the attention and love.
Oh my god I laughed out loud when you mentioned that Joe hears these songs and has nothing to say 😂 Question is proof that Haylor is alive & well and always will be (at least in my mind). One of my favorite interviews is where Taylor talks about Style and the inspiration behind the song. “This song is actually about those relationships that are never really done. You know, you always kind of have that person. That one person who you feel like might interrupt your wedding. And be like don’t do it because we’re not over yet. The one person that floats in and out of your life and the narrative is never truly over.” DEAR GOD
I’m so happy that you appreciate Question…? and Midnight Rain. They are soooo under appreciated and I’m happy to know that my favorite Swiftie TH-camr enjoys those too.
totally agree with you re: mastermind - when she said "no one wanted to play with me as a little kid, so I've been scheming like a criminal ever since" has SUCH humor and playfulness to it
Also, If your planning on doing more videos for this series with her other Albums, I think it would be interesting if combined folklore and evermore together, and made an tracklist that you think are the best parts from both of the records. Anyways, thanks for the video
The brief five seconds when you took Bejewelled out of God Tier, I screamed into my phone ‘Don’t you dare, put her back’. And you did, therefore all is right with the world.
I love putting dear reader as an opening track, it adds depth to the record, like yes I'm taylor swift but I don't actually have my shit together ever, so don't take advice from me because I'm an unreliable narrator, I don't wanna tell people what to I just want to express my neurosis. Also YOYOK works as a great bookend.
I totally agree because dear reader is basically an opposite of yoyok, like at first she is anxious that so many people rely on her for advice when she actually is just falling apart and is not a reliable source. then ending with yoyok, she realizes how far she’s come and that she is actually proud of herself. the song yoyok starts off kinda sad but ends on a hopeful note. Like start to finish, this would leave me going into the album thinking one thing and going out thinking another thing.
l like midnights is like the folklore to evermore; they’re both incredible albums but you can tell they’re just her warming up to diving fully straight in. Folklore being the warm up to evermore and now we have midnights being the warm-up to whatever her next on the nose pop record is.
Love the new rankings! Love your vlogs and hope you’re doing okay. I have a different interpretation of glitch and where it goes chronologically, for me it seems clearly about joe and the “I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this” time period of them becoming serious (so after bejeweled). Because I’m the song she’s saying I’ve only known love that fails with dudes who give me nothing, this is a glitch that we are together and happy and not what I thought would happen. Also the line “I’m not even sorry nights are so starry bloodmoon lit, it must be counterfeit” seems like “starry eyes sparking up my darkest night” + “the moon is high like your friends were the night that we first met” + “put you in jail for something you didn’t do”/“somewhere in the haze got a sense of been betrayed”. Also, I love the Great War and high infidelity for the exact same reason you dislike them, to me they are ear candy instead of a terrible sound, I can’t stop listening from the first beats, and no I don’t like daylight or Dorothea, ears are just different sometimes.
i think you hit the nail on the head with the great war and being okay with loving a song that isn’t the objective best on the album. i love the great war but i’m never gonna say it has better lyrics than other songs. i just like the melody and the vibe
I just found your account recently but I just wanna say *thank you* for being a normal Taylor Swift fan who isn’t afraid to just share normal ass opinions. I’ve been a fan of her since debut but never really got into the fandom because it frankly scared me. Watching you has fulfilled my need recently to have genuine normal discussion about her and her work.
OMG the fact that you only rearranged the songs in the album but changed the whole vibe story and feeling of the album is insane, I wish you were in the room when they were deciding this UGH
Paris is my favorite on the album, and I agree it's not objectively the best, but I remember you were talking about how bad the shade line was and, honestly, I was fully expecting you to put it in "meh" or "not today" and I was pleasantly surprised at what you had to say about it and where you put it.
The lyrics to "The Great War" are rich in imagery, symbolism, and themes that are far from simple or boring. For example, the reference to their “banners" being torn down and the battle being taken "underground" suggests a secretive or hidden aspect to the relationship and the mention of "crimson clover" could be seen as references to the loss and sacrifice of the relationship. This is also perhaps a connection to “Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve” and it’s mention of the years of tearing down ‘their’ banners and yet the tomb wont close and how memories feel like weapons. While the idea of using war as a metaphor for a relationship may be simple, the themes within it offer a nuanced and thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of this relationship and the challenges that come with forgiving and healing from it. Also I absolutely cannot stand daylight, but totally respect your opinion.
This!! It's why it became one of my favorite songs in the album, but I do agree that the sound of it is a bit jarring. I wish it had a different track behind it because the lyrics are beautiful.
I will say I like the Great War because the first time I heard it, it made me think of my husbands battle with cancer. I COMPLETELY agree that it’s not the best song on the album but it makes me reflect on the way art is given meaning by who is consuming it. If Great War is just about a fight with Joe (which feels not super deep) it’s cool that I can hear it and relate to it in a totally different way! Just thoughts. 🤗
I kinda think The Great War is more about her fight with Joe in a way that it was a fight with herself. I like to think (and kinda believe it to be true) that the song is about Taylor being self destructive in the relationship and causing all these fights and that makes it much more deeper than just a normal couple fight haha.
I love that you're obsessed with Dear Reader ♥️ I think it might be in my top 2 on the album, and I initially called it a SKIP on first listen. I deserve to be shamed.
I do like your approach of trying to be more cohesive with the reshuffle because I do agree with you that Taylor Swift albums are sometimes very chaotic tracklist-wise and this one is no different. However, I do feel that having all the slow songs next to each other would create a sense of fatigue and make me feel a bit tired listening to slow Taylor swift ballad after slow Taylor swift ballad. Still, I love your points made and great video and analysis!
I just found you through tiktok and wow, you have such a great voice for videos like this! I loved listening along to your insights even if they didn’t always align with mine 😊 I love hearing other people’s opinions of her songs! Would you consider doing a video where you rank your personal top 13 Taylor Swift songs? I think it would be great to hear why you love them and what you think of the songs!
When you took Bejeweled out of god tier for a moment but not anti-hero was shocking! Also I love the Christmas tree snow globe in the background, it’s very beautiful
my thoughts on your revised tracklist (as someone who would probably advocate for very few changes to the tracklist at all): 1. thematically i see how dear reader would make a great opener, but sonically it just doesn't really set the vibes well. this is a pop album at the end of the day, so the first track kinda needs to be a banger. also, personally i think lavender haze can't be beat as an opener because i'm someone who does see a narrative in all of midnights (standard edition), and it sets the scene really well: taylor awake in the middle of the night with joe, trying to blot out the present as she begins to reflect on the past. 2. honestly agree, anti-hero is one of the songs that really sets the vibes for the album and although i LOVE LOVE LOVE maroon it makes more sense later in the tracklist when she's lost in the past. 3. disagree... both labyrinth & sweet nothing are songs where taylor is making peace with the present after all the chaos of the past and those fit at the end of the narrative really well, not the beginning. 4. yeah this works fine. midnight rain works very well as one of the first reflection songs about the past, i would personally put yoyok first but whatever. 5. i mean if you're intent on yoyok being a closer than yeah wcs is the next best choice for track 5, and i see how it could fit the narrative. again, i think yoyok is definitely a track 5 and i like how it begins a pipeline of songs where taylor is spiraling into the past, but i see where you're coming from. 6. agree with this one completely tbh. 7. glitch is not good enough for a place on the standard edition (sorry) but if it had to be, this would make sense 8. nah... bejeweled works well as the end of the reminiscing tracks on the standard edition. she's still lost in the past but at least it's a semi-happy memory, which transitions well into labyrinth and then the rest 9. karma is again a song about making peace with the present so it should be closer to the end but i get where you're coming from 10. track 10 is too late for question, it belongs earlier with the songs about spiralling in the past... 11. the great war doesn't fit in the narrative anywhere and that's why it's a bonus track, but this placement kinda fits i guess 12. mastermind not being a closing track just makes so sense to me sorry... like how does the story continue after that 13. yeah this is my issue with your tracklist... the narrative is gone. i get that it was a kinda vague story to begin with, but now there is absolutely none 14. this works i guess but the current version is better sorry as for the songs you cut... i mean you have your reasons so that's okay, but removing vigilante shit is kinda weird when it inspired the cover art this would be my revised tracklist 1. lavender haze 2. anti-hero 3. you're on your own, kid (i know i said this is a track 5, and it is, but from a narrative viewpoint it kinda messes things up. i feel like taylor wrote it and was like "this is track 5", but then she just shoved some random songs before it to make that happen, which made the narrative less clear) 4. midnight rain 5. would've could've should've 6. question...? 7. maroon 8. vigilante shit 9. bejeweled 10. labyrinth 11. karma 12. sweet nothing 13. mastermind epilogue: dear reader (idk where to put this song. mastermind is the perfect closing track but so is dear reader in an entirely different way. very similar to folklore with hoax and the lakes). imo this should've been a target exclusive along with hits different, but dear reader was the one song that got released at 3 am. bonus tracks (should've been released a week or two after midnights) the great war bigger than the while sky paris high infidelity glitch snow on the beach hits different gosh i spent way too much time writing this
i agree about LH being a good opening track. if you look at reaction videos (including zach's) everyone's like WOAH this is crazy from the opening synths. whereas if your first impression of this brand new album was dear reader's white key piano chords, you'd think that midnights was folklore/evermore part 3
Am I the only one who isn’t fond of Maroon? It was pretty good at first, then I listened to it again and I just didn’t love it. Can someone enlighten me?
These tracklist reshuffles are so interesting! It’s funny because I don’t always agree with you on the popular tracks (Lavender Haze and Maroon) BUT I love that you also like some of the underrated songs that I’m obsessed with like Glitch and Dear Reader
I really loved ur vlogs. I’m sure I’m not the only one who really appreciates your vulnerability, so thank you!!!! ❤❤ But I also adore your other videos!!
Glitch hurts a lot, it’s very bittersweet, a relationship coming to an end and if you hear really closely at the end it sounds like game system when the screen says “game over” and that could be a nod to “loves a game wanna play?”
I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one who thought Midnight Rain would be one of the best on the album before the album dropped. I would say that was one of the ones I was most excited for and it’s definitely in my top three for midnights. Not sure if it’s #1 but it’s up there.
Here's me reimagining the Midnights' tracklist. I redid them based on Taylor and Joe's near-breakup events. We know that he went on a trip to record a film and it was during this period where Taylor and Jack made a good part of the album, so within this reimagining, things between them were not good. Joe being Joe postpones the serious conversation they need to have, mainly to clarify things between them, but decides to take a "break" and go on a trip. In this process, the concept of Midnights: Reinmagined (Enzo's Version) was born. Taylor to understand her confused feelings, seeks some resolution in music/in the studio (the whole Midnights aesthetic and world). The tracklist explores the "we are on a break", her thinking that they really broke up, refathoming and re-accepting who she is as an artist, remembering events and relationahips from the past, then falling back in love with Joe, the settling of accounts between them and her re-asserting herself as an artist. (tracklist) 1 - Dear Reader 2 - Midnight Rain 3 - Anti - Hero 4 - Bigger Than The Whole Sky 5 - You're On Your Own, Kid 6 - Maroon 7 - Vigilante Shit 8 - Bejeweled 9 - Karma 10 - Would've Could've Should've 11 - ...Question? 12 - Hits Different 13 - Labyrinth 14 - The Great War 15 - Lavender Haze 16 - Mastermind (Bonus Tracks) 17 - Snow On The Beach ft More Lana Del Rey. (Extra song of the time when he got back of his trip and she felt in love again for him) 18 - Glitch (she refathoming their past missing that beggning love passion) 19 - High Infidelity (remembering about Calvin Flopharris) 20 - Sweet Nothing (realizing that Joe is another version of Calvin Harris wearing a wig) 21 - You're Losing Me (the real ending of the album that express their present situation)
I agree with every song on your tracklist except for Dear Reader! I really just can't vibe with it and hasn't grew on me since the album release. It probably never will but I'll respect yours anyway!!
Would've Could've Should've really impacted me as I've been through similar things in my life. I think the writing there is fantastic and definitely an A or A+ for me. The song ranks top 10 of my all-time favorites because it was very heartfelt and I could hear her pain
I loved your playlist! I loved WCS and Maroon back to back, so powerful! The clean version of Lavender Haze threw me off 😂 I don’t think I’ve ever heard it before. I loved it going out on the end of YOYOK, it was so positive ❤️
i love how well thought out your critiques are! midnights definitely feels bloated and really campy at times (sort of like lover did), which is why it’s unfortunately a fall off in her discography for me, especially after folklore and evermore
If I can be brutally honest, I've never liked any of your videos because our opinions are just so damn different. But this, THIS video is simply phenomenal!!!!! You are spot on with the track list. 10/10. (btw thank you for not getting rid of The Great War lol)
Omg can't wait for the next podcast! Thanks for doing this video. Yay! Hope you had a wonderful and safe trip there. I need to watch those soon! :) Happy Holidays coming up to you and your family. :)
you have a good taste. I think the order you put these songs in your tracklist make perfect sense to me, sounds very cohesive but i think that musically and sonically doesnt work much in my opinion I mean put these much more tense concepts and sounds in the beggining of the album literally when i listened the playlist you made, it put a bit anxious. i think how it was originally released made it a little bit more digestible.(to put upbeat /down beat tracks) actually until I listened to your order I didnt realized how dense Midnights is.
i’m surprised you think of maroon as a reputation situation song!! i really don’t know where it fits into the timeline but i wanna know who this roommate is!!!! also i’m surprised you like glitch that much because i think of it as the same story about how she and joe weren’t supposed to work and then it did kinda like how lavender haze is the same story as other songs maybe an unpopular opinion i think bttws is one of the best songs that fits the midnights theme. it feels like it’s at night in bed, tears leaking from your eyes because you’re so sad you can’t even sob anymore, mourning something, while the sounds of the city haunt you in the background last thing midnight rain does something to my brain that i can’t explain i go FERAL and it keeps moving up in my overall ranking but i am hesitant to officially move it in my playlist because of recency bias
Bigger than the whole sky is an actual masterpiece. It would be on the "so sad its being skipped" list along with ronan and soon you'll get better, but it's worth the tears so is never skipped
my ideal tracklist: Midnight Anti-Hero Maroon Mastermind You're On Your Own, Kid Lavender Haze Question…? Snow On The Beach Bejeweled Karma Sweet Nothing Bigger Than The Whole Sky (i think the original tracklist is ok but needs a few changes, the 3 am tracks to me feel a bit disjointed from the original 13 but i needed a closer so i put BTTHS for vibes more than lyrics but it sounds like a pretty good to me.)
Here me out, I loved the idea of a solid 13 track album, as it was promoted that way. I’m fine with the 2 or 3 music videos and 13 tracks. The 3am tracks noticeably do not work well with the main 13 songs. They should have been put on the next record, not Midnights. Trust me, I love me some extra content but I just love the concept of planning, and sticking to it.
Thinking about which would be my pick for album opener, I realised that there aren't many songs on Midnights with enough strength. Dear Reader is nice but I think it sounds a bit anemic... I do agree with you that this album has some very good songs (I think YOYOK, Anti-Hero and CWS are the best ones, lirically) but they still can't compare to her previous works. I do like this record, but it is a bit all over the place, and some songs don't fit at all (Sweet Nothing and Paris come to mind). In my opinion, this album was an excuse for the tour, but it could've used a bit more editing and focus in the production.
I prefer some of the 3AM tracks because they seem to have less weird production sounds and feel more finished. Maybe because they're more bland they remind me of country Taylor before she started making weird pop soundbites (which I don't like on Is It Over Now either). I'd love to love Midnight Rain but it's ending feels premature, I think Maroon and Dear Reader also get cut short or just trail off into nothing.
by the way, Midnights IS a visual album (probably)! not many people are talking about it for some reason, but in the Variety directors on directors interview, Martin mentioned that there are 11 (more) videos for Midnights, and Taylor herself said she has directed about 10 music videos alone already (only 6 have been released).
@@MissteriousMisstress i mean, from the sounds of it most of the videos have yet to be recorded, and for now she's definitely holding the lavender haze mv until january because it's getting a proper single push and that will help chart placement
it's automatically not a visual album bc the videos have no relation to each other lol. bejewelled is not part of some wider project it's very clearly just an Easter egg vehicle. and pretty much all of the visuals in the trailer we've already seen. what's left is only the lavender haze music video imo. just because she has 11 unreleased videos does not mean they are for midnights, she could've been talking to him before they were rolling about projects that were scrapped. time will tell and I will be right x
@theswiftologist the timestamps i'm referencing in the interview are 2:50 and 38:30. taylor definitely said she's directed about 10 music videos, and martin definitely said 11 videos specifically for midnights. but yeah, i agree nothing is for certain until she confirms it directly! i just think if either of them said anything obviously wrong it would've been cut out. also i think "visual album" just means an album where every song has a music video. they don't necessarily need to all be connected. that's just based on 2 minutes of google searching tho lol
okay your whole thing about "how does joe deal with all the songs about other guys?" i think that is what the line "you don't really read into my melancholia" is about in lavender haze, like he doesn't overthink the fact that she has regrets etc (how he doesn't, i have no fucking clue)
Does anyone else feel like the sound effect that follows the verses in maroon (the dropping ish sound) kind of sounds like "the plane going down" its really conveys that feeling of a relationship ending again and the despair that comes with it
I remember on first listen, I had a feeling that if Midnights were just reordered a bit, it would be her most grown up sounding album yet. After listening to your playlist, I can confirm that hypothesis! Well done, listening to it in your order makes the album so much darker, which I am definitely here for. So thank you, I will listen to the album like this from now on. PS thank you for leaving in Labyrinth even though you hate it 😂
Im so onboard with your track list!! Even though I like Vigilante S*it, your narrative makes SO MUCH SENSE. I still need to take some time to forgive you for putting Paris in very very good, but I’ll get there Zach 😂 at least it gets cut on your track list Loved your little tree there. So sweet! Happy holidays!!
The amount of god tier songs you had made me think I'm too critical. There are 2, maybe 3 songs I see potentially cracking my Top 20. Most of this album's tracks fall in mid to low tiers for me
I love your track list! It's so creative. The cut tracks can be bonus tracks or something. Speaking of which, what did you think of hits different? I don't think that was covered here.

- High Infidelity (ok production, love the vocal bridge)
- Bigger Than The Whole Sky (amazing lyrics, love the guitar)
- Maroon (I like the production, but the use of color in Taylor’s songs/finding things that have that color is getting overused
- Midnight Rain (nothing much to say)
Tier 3:
Paris
Snow on the Beach
Sweet Nothing
Tier 4:
- Mastermind (lyrics are kind of juvenile/sounds like something a beginner could’ve wrote)
- Karma (love the melody, but Lyrics are also juvenile)
- Bejeweled (same reason as Karma)
- Question (same reason as Karma, love the bop-ey melody of the bridge though)
- Vigilante (the lyrics very much lack depth)

Why is the playlist so different?

I love the dear reader appreciation. I never understood how anyone could place it last in their ranking
Paris is the last of my rankings, with 3am tracks but with 12am only, Snow On The Beach is the last in my rankings.
It took time to grow on me, it used to be a complete automatic skip but once I heard the bridge more I grew to like it enough to not skip. I just find the “Dear Reader” repetition kind of boring. But halfway thru the song it picks up and becomes more interesting lyrically and musically.
IKR ITS SO ANNOYING DEAR READER IS ONE OF THE BEST ON THE ALBUM
Along with Karma, I listen to it the most out of all the Midnights tracks.
Dear reader is my number one

Justice for Question...? !!! It is literally the most passive aggressive, insane, fun song on the record. She wrote that song specifically for Harry to hear and to get her message across, and if you get it, you get it! It gives AYHTDWS energy, but more passive aggressive and I love that for her.
Question is my favvvvvvv
It's literally her worst the lyrics are so fucking cringe and childish i rather losten to ME! Than ever listen to it again
Question rules and I guess it is fine if someone doesn’t like it. BUT EVERYONE KNOWS IT IS SO GREAT!
question can e so relatable it's scary
question rukes and that isn’t even a question.
The way you describe anti-hero made me snort, "I don't know if she's the smartest girl in the room, but she's a very commanding girl" 😂😂😂
The best way to explain anti hero... Perfect
people don’t really get the 3AM concept… they’re all deep and sensitive because that’s how 3am feels after the euphoria pf midnight melts down. The fact that those 7 songs are placed as 3am is perfect.
People get it but the songs don’t match that…like explain how Paris and The Great War fit into the “deep and sensitive” vibe. Quickly.
@@theswiftologist yeah Paris not so much but Paris is rarely a song people say should be on the standard edition. The Great War however is about two people going through a difficult time but being able to survive it and move forward. That is definitely “sensitive” and mature topic.

Hahaa same 😆 like you got me there!
The Great War is one of my favorites on Midnights. Definitely top 5 and one of my most replayed.
I dont care for Daylight but I do ride for The Great War. 😂🤭
Putting Dear Reader in God Tier where she belongs. Thank you for giving her the appreciation she deserves.
‘Bend when you can, snap if you have to’ is one of my favourite lines Taylor’s ever written.
same!!
Idk if there's something wrong with me but a primal instinct awakens inside my psyche when "good girl sad boy big city wrong choices..." starts playing. Like I get feral when Question comes on shuffle. She deserves all the attention and love.
Oh my god I laughed out loud when you mentioned that Joe hears these songs and has nothing to say 😂 Question is proof that Haylor is alive & well and always will be (at least in my mind). One of my favorite interviews is where Taylor talks about Style and the inspiration behind the song. “This song is actually about those relationships that are never really done. You know, you always kind of have that person. That one person who you feel like might interrupt your wedding. And be like don’t do it because we’re not over yet. The one person that floats in and out of your life and the narrative is never truly over.” DEAR GOD
btw the Christmas tree snow globe is magical 🎄
@@LifeAsACarrie omg thank u
omg reading this after is it over now? is something else
I cackled so loud when you said ‘I bet you like Daylight’ when you talked about The Great War because its me. I love both songs 💀
OMG AN UNEXPECTED SURPRISE *mentally preparing myself for labyrinth slander though!*
Thank you for your hard work, zach!!!
LABYRINTH DESERVES BETTER IT IS SO PRETTY
I’m so happy that you appreciate Question…? and Midnight Rain. They are soooo under appreciated and I’m happy to know that my favorite Swiftie TH-camr enjoys those too.
totally agree with you re: mastermind - when she said "no one wanted to play with me as a little kid, so I've been scheming like a criminal ever since" has SUCH humor and playfulness to it
she's unhinged. love her
Also, If your planning on doing more videos for this series with her other Albums, I think it would be interesting if combined folklore and evermore together, and made an tracklist that you think are the best parts from both of the records. Anyways, thanks for the video
oooooh yes!
The brief five seconds when you took Bejewelled out of God Tier, I screamed into my phone ‘Don’t you dare, put her back’. And you did, therefore all is right with the world.
Haha
i am sorry for your loss zach, losing someone is always painful, stay strong ❤
I love putting dear reader as an opening track, it adds depth to the record, like yes I'm taylor swift but I don't actually have my shit together ever, so don't take advice from me because I'm an unreliable narrator, I don't wanna tell people what to I just want to express my neurosis. Also YOYOK works as a great bookend.
I totally agree because dear reader is basically an opposite of yoyok, like at first she is anxious that so many people rely on her for advice when she actually is just falling apart and is not a reliable source. then ending with yoyok, she realizes how far she’s come and that she is actually proud of herself. the song yoyok starts off kinda sad but ends on a hopeful note. Like start to finish, this would leave me going into the album thinking one thing and going out thinking another thing.
everyone thank zach for giving us our sunday bread 🥖
THANK YOU ZACH🙏🙏🙏
Thank you Zack!!!
Thank you zach 🥖
thank you Zach 🥖
l like midnights is like the folklore to evermore; they’re both incredible albums but you can tell they’re just her warming up to diving fully straight in. Folklore being the warm up to evermore and now we have midnights being the warm-up to whatever her next on the nose pop record is.
Finally someone who loves question!!! It’s so underrated, deserves way more appreciation honestly it’s annoying how people overlook it all the time
Love the new rankings! Love your vlogs and hope you’re doing okay. I have a different interpretation of glitch and where it goes chronologically, for me it seems clearly about joe and the “I hate accidents except when we went from friends to this” time period of them becoming serious (so after bejeweled). Because I’m the song she’s saying I’ve only known love that fails with dudes who give me nothing, this is a glitch that we are together and happy and not what I thought would happen. Also the line “I’m not even sorry nights are so starry bloodmoon lit, it must be counterfeit” seems like “starry eyes sparking up my darkest night” + “the moon is high like your friends were the night that we first met” + “put you in jail for something you didn’t do”/“somewhere in the haze got a sense of been betrayed”. Also, I love the Great War and high infidelity for the exact same reason you dislike them, to me they are ear candy instead of a terrible sound, I can’t stop listening from the first beats, and no I don’t like daylight or Dorothea, ears are just different sometimes.
i think you hit the nail on the head with the great war and being okay with loving a song that isn’t the objective best on the album. i love the great war but i’m never gonna say it has better lyrics than other songs. i just like the melody and the vibe
Yeah, and I am really obssessed with the bridge. And not to mention, the rhythm of the chorus. haha
_’Time passes me by and I don’t notice anymore’_ is honestly a new Taylor lyric well done mate😂
I just found your account recently but I just wanna say *thank you* for being a normal Taylor Swift fan who isn’t afraid to just share normal ass opinions. I’ve been a fan of her since debut but never really got into the fandom because it frankly scared me. Watching you has fulfilled my need recently to have genuine normal discussion about her and her work.
OMG the fact that you only rearranged the songs in the album but changed the whole vibe story and feeling of the album is insane, I wish you were in the room when they were deciding this UGH
Paris is my favorite on the album, and I agree it's not objectively the best, but I remember you were talking about how bad the shade line was and, honestly, I was fully expecting you to put it in "meh" or "not today" and I was pleasantly surprised at what you had to say about it and where you put it.
The lyrics to "The Great War" are rich in imagery, symbolism, and themes that are far from simple or boring. For example, the reference to their “banners" being torn down and the battle being taken "underground" suggests a secretive or hidden aspect to the relationship and the mention of "crimson clover" could be seen as references to the loss and sacrifice of the relationship. This is also perhaps a connection to “Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve” and it’s mention of the years of tearing down ‘their’ banners and yet the tomb wont close and how memories feel like weapons. While the idea of using war as a metaphor for a relationship may be simple, the themes within it offer a nuanced and thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of this relationship and the challenges that come with forgiving and healing from it. Also I absolutely cannot stand daylight, but totally respect your opinion.
This!! It's why it became one of my favorite songs in the album, but I do agree that the sound of it is a bit jarring. I wish it had a different track behind it because the lyrics are beautiful.
I will say I like the Great War because the first time I heard it, it made me think of my husbands battle with cancer. I COMPLETELY agree that it’s not the best song on the album but it makes me reflect on the way art is given meaning by who is consuming it. If Great War is just about a fight with Joe (which feels not super deep) it’s cool that I can hear it and relate to it in a totally different way! Just thoughts. 🤗
I kinda think The Great War is more about her fight with Joe in a way that it was a fight with herself. I like to think (and kinda believe it to be true) that the song is about Taylor being self destructive in the relationship and causing all these fights and that makes it much more deeper than just a normal couple fight haha.
@@sujal4078 yes, every single taylor swift song will ALWAYS have a deeper meaning, she is a lyrical genuis
I love that you're obsessed with Dear Reader ♥️ I think it might be in my top 2 on the album, and I initially called it a SKIP on first listen. I deserve to be shamed.
I love Dear Reader! I feel like it works so well as an ending track but could also work well as an opener like in your rearrangement!
A NEW EPISODE OF THE POD?! also this year I listened to the pod more than Taylor herself. 😘 never expected this trajectory
well to be fair we have hours of content ....
I do like your approach of trying to be more cohesive with the reshuffle because I do agree with you that Taylor Swift albums are sometimes very chaotic tracklist-wise and this one is no different. However, I do feel that having all the slow songs next to each other would create a sense of fatigue and make me feel a bit tired listening to slow Taylor swift ballad after slow Taylor swift ballad. Still, I love your points made and great video and analysis!
babe is really feeding us a Michelin star feast… IM GRATEFUL
I just found you through tiktok and wow, you have such a great voice for videos like this! I loved listening along to your insights even if they didn’t always align with mine 😊 I love hearing other people’s opinions of her songs!
Would you consider doing a video where you rank your personal top 13 Taylor Swift songs? I think it would be great to hear why you love them and what you think of the songs!
When you took Bejeweled out of god tier for a moment but not anti-hero was shocking! Also I love the Christmas tree snow globe in the background, it’s very beautiful
your makeup looks great, dewey glow!
The thing I love about your videos is your analysis of each of the songs they are just spot on and the rearranged tracklist always works
The pain of Hits different not getting the reaction it deserves
I want a swiftologist video going through the midnights track list knowing what we know now with TTPD
my thoughts on your revised tracklist (as someone who would probably advocate for very few changes to the tracklist at all):
1. thematically i see how dear reader would make a great opener, but sonically it just doesn't really set the vibes well. this is a pop album at the end of the day, so the first track kinda needs to be a banger. also, personally i think lavender haze can't be beat as an opener because i'm someone who does see a narrative in all of midnights (standard edition), and it sets the scene really well: taylor awake in the middle of the night with joe, trying to blot out the present as she begins to reflect on the past.
2. honestly agree, anti-hero is one of the songs that really sets the vibes for the album and although i LOVE LOVE LOVE maroon it makes more sense later in the tracklist when she's lost in the past.
3. disagree... both labyrinth & sweet nothing are songs where taylor is making peace with the present after all the chaos of the past and those fit at the end of the narrative really well, not the beginning.
4. yeah this works fine. midnight rain works very well as one of the first reflection songs about the past, i would personally put yoyok first but whatever.
5. i mean if you're intent on yoyok being a closer than yeah wcs is the next best choice for track 5, and i see how it could fit the narrative. again, i think yoyok is definitely a track 5 and i like how it begins a pipeline of songs where taylor is spiraling into the past, but i see where you're coming from.
6. agree with this one completely tbh.
7. glitch is not good enough for a place on the standard edition (sorry) but if it had to be, this would make sense
8. nah... bejeweled works well as the end of the reminiscing tracks on the standard edition. she's still lost in the past but at least it's a semi-happy memory, which transitions well into labyrinth and then the rest
9. karma is again a song about making peace with the present so it should be closer to the end but i get where you're coming from
10. track 10 is too late for question, it belongs earlier with the songs about spiralling in the past...
11. the great war doesn't fit in the narrative anywhere and that's why it's a bonus track, but this placement kinda fits i guess
12. mastermind not being a closing track just makes so sense to me sorry... like how does the story continue after that
13. yeah this is my issue with your tracklist... the narrative is gone. i get that it was a kinda vague story to begin with, but now there is absolutely none
14. this works i guess but the current version is better sorry
as for the songs you cut... i mean you have your reasons so that's okay, but removing vigilante shit is kinda weird when it inspired the cover art
this would be my revised tracklist
1. lavender haze
2. anti-hero
3. you're on your own, kid (i know i said this is a track 5, and it is, but from a narrative viewpoint it kinda messes things up. i feel like taylor wrote it and was like "this is track 5", but then she just shoved some random songs before it to make that happen, which made the narrative less clear)
4. midnight rain
5. would've could've should've
6. question...?
7. maroon
8. vigilante shit
9. bejeweled
10. labyrinth
11. karma
12. sweet nothing
13. mastermind
epilogue: dear reader (idk where to put this song. mastermind is the perfect closing track but so is dear reader in an entirely different way. very similar to folklore with hoax and the lakes). imo this should've been a target exclusive along with hits different, but dear reader was the one song that got released at 3 am.
bonus tracks (should've been released a week or two after midnights)
the great war
bigger than the while sky
paris
high infidelity
glitch
snow on the beach
hits different
gosh i spent way too much time writing this
i agree about LH being a good opening track. if you look at reaction videos (including zach's) everyone's like WOAH this is crazy from the opening synths. whereas if your first impression of this brand new album was dear reader's white key piano chords, you'd think that midnights was folklore/evermore part 3
I think midnights is the only of her album that has an obvious best song (Would've, Could've, Should've)
Listening to this after TTPD… girllllll
Am I the only one who isn’t fond of Maroon? It was pretty good at first, then I listened to it again and I just didn’t love it. Can someone enlighten me?
I absolutely changed my mind
I like the vibe of glitch but I can’t stand how forced the tying together with a stitch lyric sounds to rhyme with glitch
I can also lowkey sense that but I kinda overlook it sometimes because I love the melody and the vibe.
These tracklist reshuffles are so interesting! It’s funny because I don’t always agree with you on the popular tracks (Lavender Haze and Maroon) BUT I love that you also like some of the underrated songs that I’m obsessed with like Glitch and Dear Reader
I really loved ur vlogs. I’m sure I’m not the only one who really appreciates your vulnerability, so thank you!!!! ❤❤
But I also adore your other videos!!
thank you so much abby!
You do these rearrangings so well!! I agree You’re on your own kid sounds like it should be at the end, like a realisation not an emotional track 5
Glitch hurts a lot, it’s very bittersweet, a relationship coming to an end and if you hear really closely at the end it sounds like game system when the screen says “game over” and that could be a nod to “loves a game wanna play?”
yes glitch is soooo underrated!
@@theswiftologist omg you replied, ahhhh have great week man!
I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one who thought Midnight Rain would be one of the best on the album before the album dropped. I would say that was one of the ones I was most excited for and it’s definitely in my top three for midnights. Not sure if it’s #1 but it’s up there.
you actually have incredible taste
Great episode! I’m gonna try the new track list. I love the production on Glitch.
Here's me reimagining the Midnights' tracklist. I redid them based on Taylor and Joe's near-breakup events. We know that he went on a trip to record a film and it was during this period where Taylor and Jack made a good part of the album, so within this reimagining, things between them were not good. Joe being Joe postpones the serious conversation they need to have, mainly to clarify things between them, but decides to take a "break" and go on a trip. In this process, the concept of Midnights: Reinmagined (Enzo's Version) was born. Taylor to understand her confused feelings, seeks some resolution in music/in the studio (the whole Midnights aesthetic and world). The tracklist explores the "we are on a break", her thinking that they really broke up, refathoming and re-accepting who she is as an artist, remembering events and relationahips from the past, then falling back in love with Joe, the settling of accounts between them and her re-asserting herself as an artist.

The phrase "bleep bloop song" is added to my vocabulary now
Got this notification while re watching the 1989 tour film.
FINALLY! Someone who loves Mastermind as much as I do 💙💙💙
I love that Dear Reader and Question are god tier for you cause they are literally my number one songs from Midnights!!!!
I agree with every song on your tracklist except for Dear Reader! I really just can't vibe with it and hasn't grew on me since the album release. It probably never will but I'll respect yours anyway!!
Finally someone who loves Dear Reader!!! It's SO GOOD!
Dear reader as the first song is such a galaxy brain idea
I turned off the World Cup final to watch this. Absolutely obsessed 🫶
Would've Could've Should've really impacted me as I've been through similar things in my life. I think the writing there is fantastic and definitely an A or A+ for me. The song ranks top 10 of my all-time favorites because it was very heartfelt and I could hear her pain
I loved your playlist! I loved WCS and Maroon back to back, so powerful! The clean version of Lavender Haze threw me off 😂 I don’t think I’ve ever heard it before. I loved it going out on the end of YOYOK, it was so positive ❤️
i love how well thought out your critiques are! midnights definitely feels bloated and really campy at times (sort of like lover did), which is why it’s unfortunately a fall off in her discography for me, especially after folklore and evermore
If I can be brutally honest, I've never liked any of your videos because our opinions are just so damn different. But this, THIS video is simply phenomenal!!!!! You are spot on with the track list. 10/10. (btw thank you for not getting rid of The Great War lol)
Omg can't wait for the next podcast! Thanks for doing this video. Yay! Hope you had a wonderful and safe trip there. I need to watch those soon! :) Happy Holidays coming up to you and your family. :)
How did you feel when you discovered more recently that Question is probably about Matty Healy...
Would definitely love to hear the Spotify playlist of how you’d order the track list
you have a good taste. I think the order you put these songs in your tracklist make perfect sense to me, sounds very cohesive but i think that musically and sonically doesnt work much in my opinion I mean put these much more tense concepts and sounds in the beggining of the album literally when i listened the playlist you made, it put a bit anxious. i think how it was originally released made it a little bit more digestible.(to put upbeat /down beat tracks) actually until I listened to your order I didnt realized how dense Midnights is.
the great war and daylight are probably my 2 fav songs writing wise
I'm here very late, but i love ur album list!! You cut the right songs, and made it make more sense to me, ty 💖
i’m surprised you think of maroon as a reputation situation song!! i really don’t know where it fits into the timeline but i wanna know who this roommate is!!!!
also i’m surprised you like glitch that much because i think of it as the same story about how she and joe weren’t supposed to work and then it did kinda like how lavender haze is the same story as other songs
maybe an unpopular opinion i think bttws is one of the best songs that fits the midnights theme. it feels like it’s at night in bed, tears leaking from your eyes because you’re so sad you can’t even sob anymore, mourning something, while the sounds of the city haunt you in the background
last thing midnight rain does something to my brain that i can’t explain i go FERAL and it keeps moving up in my overall ranking but i am hesitant to officially move it in my playlist because of recency bias
Bigger than the whole sky is an actual masterpiece. It would be on the "so sad its being skipped" list along with ronan and soon you'll get better, but it's worth the tears so is never skipped
@@faegibb4043 100% agreed
Random suggestion, I would love your “daily prayer” as merch. Either written out on a candle or a notebook cover 😊
Great idea!!
The hits different erasure 💀
dear reader appreciation im so here for that! one of my fav taylor songs
my ideal tracklist:
Midnight
Anti-Hero
Maroon
Mastermind
You're On Your Own, Kid
Lavender Haze
Question…?
Snow On The Beach
Bejeweled
Karma
Sweet Nothing
Bigger Than The Whole Sky
(i think the original tracklist is ok but needs a few changes, the 3 am tracks to me feel a bit disjointed from the original 13 but i needed a closer so i put BTTHS for vibes more than lyrics but it sounds like a pretty good to me.)
as a fellow crazy person i relate to your experiences :D really happy this channel popped up in my recommendations
Here me out, I loved the idea of a solid 13 track album, as it was promoted that way. I’m fine with the 2 or 3 music videos and 13 tracks. The 3am tracks noticeably do not work well with the main 13 songs. They should have been put on the next record, not Midnights. Trust me, I love me some extra content but I just love the concept of planning, and sticking to it.
Thinking about which would be my pick for album opener, I realised that there aren't many songs on Midnights with enough strength. Dear Reader is nice but I think it sounds a bit anemic... I do agree with you that this album has some very good songs (I think YOYOK, Anti-Hero and CWS are the best ones, lirically) but they still can't compare to her previous works.
I do like this record, but it is a bit all over the place, and some songs don't fit at all (Sweet Nothing and Paris come to mind). In my opinion, this album was an excuse for the tour, but it could've used a bit more editing and focus in the production.
Nice Zack! So good to see the Dear Reader love! Where do you put Hits Different?
loving your london boy, wanting your paper rings blablabla😂😂
"I bet you also like Daylight". 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💀💀💀💀💀
speaking my truth wbk
I prefer some of the 3AM tracks because they seem to have less weird production sounds and feel more finished. Maybe because they're more bland they remind me of country Taylor before she started making weird pop soundbites (which I don't like on Is It Over Now either). I'd love to love Midnight Rain but it's ending feels premature, I think Maroon and Dear Reader also get cut short or just trail off into nothing.
by the way, Midnights IS a visual album (probably)! not many people are talking about it for some reason, but in the Variety directors on directors interview, Martin mentioned that there are 11 (more) videos for Midnights, and Taylor herself said she has directed about 10 music videos alone already (only 6 have been released).
Then where the hell are they?? How can she do this??
@@MissteriousMisstress i mean, from the sounds of it most of the videos have yet to be recorded, and for now she's definitely holding the lavender haze mv until january because it's getting a proper single push and that will help chart placement
it's automatically not a visual album bc the videos have no relation to each other lol. bejewelled is not part of some wider project it's very clearly just an Easter egg vehicle. and pretty much all of the visuals in the trailer we've already seen. what's left is only the lavender haze music video imo. just because she has 11 unreleased videos does not mean they are for midnights, she could've been talking to him before they were rolling about projects that were scrapped. time will tell and I will be right x
@theswiftologist the timestamps i'm referencing in the interview are 2:50 and 38:30. taylor definitely said she's directed about 10 music videos, and martin definitely said 11 videos specifically for midnights. but yeah, i agree nothing is for certain until she confirms it directly! i just think if either of them said anything obviously wrong it would've been cut out.
also i think "visual album" just means an album where every song has a music video. they don't necessarily need to all be connected. that's just based on 2 minutes of google searching tho lol
I really am in need of friends like Zac ✨ someone I can really dive deep with in Taylor's chaotic mind
okay your whole thing about "how does joe deal with all the songs about other guys?" i think that is what the line "you don't really read into my melancholia" is about in lavender haze, like he doesn't overthink the fact that she has regrets etc (how he doesn't, i have no fucking clue)
Does anyone else feel like the sound effect that follows the verses in maroon (the dropping ish sound) kind of sounds like "the plane going down" its really conveys that feeling of a relationship ending again and the despair that comes with it
You put all my favourites in the meh section so we definitely have opposite tastes!
Finally somebody that loves Question💙
I remember on first listen, I had a feeling that if Midnights were just reordered a bit, it would be her most grown up sounding album yet. After listening to your playlist, I can confirm that hypothesis! Well done, listening to it in your order makes the album so much darker, which I am definitely here for. So thank you, I will listen to the album like this from now on.
PS thank you for leaving in Labyrinth even though you hate it 😂
Mastermind getting the appreciation it deserves!! Girlies who don’t get it are just too emotionally stable. Like if you’re boring just say that.
Im so onboard with your track list!! Even though I like Vigilante S*it, your narrative makes SO MUCH SENSE.
I still need to take some time to forgive you for putting Paris in very very good, but I’ll get there Zach 😂 at least it gets cut on your track list
Loved your little tree there. So sweet! Happy holidays!!
The amount of god tier songs you had made me think I'm too critical.
There are 2, maybe 3 songs I see potentially cracking my Top 20. Most of this album's tracks fall in mid to low tiers for me
I like Midnights a lot, but your new Midnights track list, are all in the right spot!
I have to disagree on Bigger Than the Whole Sky, that feels like the most "in my feelings at Midnight" thing I can think of. But I see your point
I think you're too harsh on High Fidelity, it has a poetic flair, she's juxtaposing record and hi-fi music quality, plus the melody's memorable.
I love your track list! It's so creative. The cut tracks can be bonus tracks or something. Speaking of which, what did you think of hits different? I don't think that was covered here.
hits different almost doesn't exist to me cuz its not on streaming lol
@@theswiftologist LMAOOO true I thought it was a fun song but very different than everything else we got
“Dear Lord, hope you are doing well” 😂😂
