Oh yeah, I definitely agree with that. It had the most crossover potential for sure. I'm afraid that the only reason that it wasn't the lead is because it was already out there and well known to fans due to its previous live performance, but that's the exact reason why it should have been the lead: it was already beloved by the fans, which would have driven up sales and excitement, and given the song a narrative (Mine is her only lead single that doesn't really have one).
 

Imagine the alternate timeline where Sparks Fly was a multiformat smasha and one of her early signature songs.

nnn the Mine narrative in question was "this sounds like Love Story but is slightly less country and thus will hopefully do slightly better". If it hadn't leaked and all it probably would've been bigger around the board, but Sparks Fly is that *****™ and deserved

But now I'll go

sit on the floor 

wearing your clothes

all That I know is I Don't know

how to be something you miss.

Not the biggest TS stan on here but WHEW, You're Losing Me is hitting HARD rn (not a good thing I know )

I hope it's considered one of her best songs tbh 

tbh it's probably one of my least streams songs, but no Swiftie would deny the importance of that song, like we were gagged when we heard those lyrics for the first time

Name a song with sadder lyrics than Last Kiss. I'm not sure it's possible.

 

I'm gonna have to argue that tolerate it is in that league I fear.

This song is not fair and shouldn't be counted for any ranking whatsoever tbh

Btw, is it unpopular to find the Speak Now Tour version of Last Kiss even more of a murdering moment?

No, that should be universal

SO I'LL WATCH YOUR LIFE

IN PICTURES 

LIKE I USED TO WATCH YOU SLEEP

 

AND I FEEL YOU FORGET ME LIKE

I USED TO FEEL YOU BREATHE

 

AND I KEEP UP 

WITH OUR OLD FRIENDS

JUST TO ASK THEM

HOW YOU ARE

Hope it's nice where you are.

One of the most iconic song of her discography, from one of the most iconic album of her discography, being played on (arguably) the most iconic of her guitars... 

 

Oh Last Kiss (Live) you will always be famous 

[fab]

I wonder if TTPD will continue the streak of track 2s being the best song on their albums, a streak that has been going on since 2019 

 

[PoisonedIvy]

And I hope the sun shines

and it's a beautiful day

and something reminds you,

you wish you had stayed.

You can plan for a change in

the weather and time,

but I never planned on you changing your mind. 

[PoisonedIvy]

Sorry everyone, Last Kiss is a spiritual experience for me. Literal holy texts.

Will we get to 1000 pages before April 19

[Dear Reader]

Any version of Last Kiss is great.

 

Last Kiss (Live) - emotional, the guitar performance, the spinning stage.

Last Kiss (OG) - delivery, the breath after the bridge

Last Kiss (TV) - mature vocals, growth, incredible production

Yeah. Mine being Love Story but as a "real girl" cosplay instead of as fairytale dressup was meant to signify that she had "matured.” 
 

(Funny how everyone sees this retread for what it is, but hasn't fully fathomed that both songs are lifting from the Mary's Song blueprint—and that she did it again and again and again on nearly every album she's made. Ugh. Mother Mary's Hymn is line the single most important song in her catalog).

[1989]

Happy Speak Now day, sistrens! 
 

 

My favorite album of all time, oh Preach Now you will FOREVER be famous! 
 

 

A masterpiece, a literal masterpiece! A timeless collection of flawless, A+ work.
