gagacasanova Posted August 30 Posted August 30 48 minutes ago, Achilles. said: On initial scoring I have 81 10s. And that is with me already marking down some 10s to avoid having too many. I don't really like that the songs with multiple versions are combined. Like "Karma" is a 10 and "Karma (feat. Ice Spice)" is easily a 0. But am I supposed to rate it 10 for the good version, 0 for the bad version, or 5 for the average of the two? reputation, 1989, and Loser are my least played Lord albums of 2024 (with reputation just entering my top 50 this morning), and my scores do reflect this. Me with my 37 10's 5
Achilles. Posted August 30 Posted August 30 11 minutes ago, Forever Winter said: I limited myself to 30-50ish 10s because I needed to use them as a benchmark as the absolute best songs. 100 10s for me would mean all 100 of those are contenders for her best songs and I have some puta and Loser songs in my top 51-100 which I KNOW realistically are not contenders for the top spot. Yeah, I get what you mean about benchmarks. I'll probably try to cut it down to fifty-ish too. Maybe I should only give 10s to songs in my existing top 50 list. But I can't remember if I updated that after Poets. And making that top 50 list is a pain in any case. I always start with a shortlist of like 85. 7 minutes ago, wastedpotential said: Oh drag them My spread of 10s per album is actually pretty even Reveal hidden contents *TS - 2 Fearless - 7 SN - 8 Red - 10 1989 - 5 Rep - 2 Lover - 3 folklore - 8 evermore - 9 Midnights - 6 TTPD - 8 Others - 6 *I've got a few more I'd make 10s after Whitney-cization I was going to ask how you had 6 for Others but then I remembered that I have four 10s and two 9s there so.

makeawish Posted August 30 Posted August 30 i didn't have a lot of tens but i didn't bother about 'can't give one to enchanted' or whatever, there's gonna be a battle at the top as well and i want my girls to win 1
Brooklyn Baby Posted August 30 Author Posted August 30 Debut - 2 10s Fearless - 8 10s Speak Now - 8 10s Red - 6 10s 1989 - 4 10s reputation - 3 10s Lover - 1 10 folklore - 6 10s evermore - 6 10s Midnights - 2 10s TTPD - 2 10s Total: 48 3
1989 Posted August 30 Posted August 30 I have 56 10s and that's with me being objective (as I can be nnn) and giving some classics/hits/fan favorites some variations of a 9 in order to prop up some of my personal faves realistically I could've had 60-65 10s 2
wastedpotential Posted August 30 Posted August 30 The way y'all are cutting your number of 10s down and here I am going through my ballot and bumping up my number of 10s as I go 2

Peroxide Posted August 30 Posted August 30 (edited) @SlaylorS bestie. Join the fun. - I was pretty harsh with my scoring and how many 10's I gave out… Spoiler Debut - Zero 10's - highest score is 7.5 Fearless - Zero 10's - highest score is 8.5 Speak Now - Zero 10's - two songs have 9.5 Red - One 11, Zero 10's… but plenty of 9's… 1989 - One 11, two 10's Reputation - One 11, two 10's Lover - One 10 Folklore - One 11, One 10… LOADS of 9's Evermore - Two 10's Midnights - One 10 TTPD - One 11, two 10's, the main album has the most 9's out of every album listed.

Like that, I guess. Spoiler Only The Young and Half of My Heart are in Others, but so are Safe & Sound and Renegade (among many others nnn) I have an additional 3 9s down there too
Achilles. Posted August 30 Posted August 30 Spoiler The way that the rules say we can give decimal scores and that we can give five 11s but they do not prohibit giving 10s decimals. Just wait until our hostess opens my ballot with five 11s and fifteen 10.9s. 2
Miles. Posted August 30 Posted August 30 (edited) I have 60 10-11s Debut: 3 Fearless: 3 Speak Now: 6 Red: 10 1989: 7 Reputation: 5 Loser: 1 Folklore: 5 Evermore: Error 404 - Not Found (Champagne Problems did get a 9.5 though!) Midnights: 3 TTPD: 13 Other: 4 Edited August 30 by Miles. 2

Bussea Posted August 30 Posted August 30 honestly it's hard with rates bc i always want to give everything i like a 10, everything I kinda like a 7, a song that's background a 5, and a fan favourite that I loathe a 1 or 0 1
wastedpotential Posted August 30 Posted August 30 (edited) Okay so I finally have all of my numbers put in my spreadsheet so I can do some fun math: I only gave 23 songs a score of less than 6, or 8.8% of my scores came from the bottom 60% of the available range. Of those, 2 are from Debut, 1 is from Fearless, 1 is from SN, 3 are from Red, 3 are from 1989, 3 are from Rep, 3 are from Lover, 0 from folkmore/Midnights, 1 is from TTPD, 2 are from Christmas, and 4 are from Other. Then, I've got 21 more 6s, meaning that 216/260 (83% nnn) are a 7 or higher. 181 are an 8 or higher (69.2%), and 121 are a 9 or higher (46.5%) Edited August 30 by wastedpotential
Blood Magic Posted August 30 Posted August 30 I finished the Taylor's Versions so I can now safely say Speak Now has the best vault and Fearless the worst one. 3
wastedpotential Posted August 30 Posted August 30 I know it's not on the rate list, but this came up for me as I was writing a comment (take a guess as to which song nnn) and I think some of y'all need to stream, study, and worship this 1
Dear Reader Posted August 30 Posted August 30 @Forever Winter Just updated some scores Spoiler Only up, because I know some of you girlies will try it with TTPD 2
wastedpotential Posted August 30 Posted August 30 (edited) New averages below, girls, posted to show just how developed my taste is Spoiler TS - 7.47 Fearless - 8.42 SN - 8.99 Red - 8.57 1989 - 8.06 Rep - 7.35 Lover - 7.22 folklore - 9.33 evermore - 9.52 Midnights - 8.47 TTPD - 8.53 Christmas - 6.73 Other - 7.71 In rank order: Spoiler evermore - 9.52 folklore - 9.33 SN - 8.99 Red - 8.57 TTPD - 8.53 Midnights - 8.47 Fearless - 8.42 1989 - 8.06 TS - 7.47 Rep - 7.35 Lover - 7.22 Other - 7.71 Christmas - 6.73 In my defense, Red and Fearless were both dinged HARD by the vault, and TTPD and Midnights were both elevated significantly by 3am/Anthology, but I'm not sure how I feel about this being my current rankings because in my head Fearless is still my solid 5th and Red should be way closer to SN Edited August 30 by wastedpotential 1 1

Klein Posted August 30 Posted August 30 (edited) Oh we're sharing the number of 10/11s by album? Debut - 4 Fearless - 8 Speak Now - 11 Red - 11 1989 - 8 Reputation - 3 Lover - 4 folklore - 7 evermore - 11 Midnights - 3 TTPD - 9 (Christmas - 0) Others - 5 That's a total of 79. And some people were wondering about giving like 40-50 of those Not Rep and Midnigths having the least amount of 10s, yet Midnights has an average 1.6 point higher overall and is #6 in my ranking. Spoiler I think the number of 0/1s per album is also fun Debut - 2 Fearless - 2 Speak Now - 1 Red - 2 1989 - 1 Reputation - 4 Lover - 2 folklore - 0 evermore - 0 Midnights - 1 TTPD - 3 Christmas - 6 Others - 2 Edited August 30 by Klein 1

creativity. Posted August 30 Posted August 30 If I had my way, the top 3 of a Taylor discog rate would be 1. State of Grace 2. Back to December 3. Tim McGraw 1
