Been bumping this on repeat so figured, why not review it?
Full transparency - I am a somewhat new Taylor fan. I always call myself a "born again Swiftie", since I loved some of her debut hits back in the day, plus the classics from Fearless like Love Story and You Belong With Me.

faves - northern attitude, come over, new perspective, orange juice, growing sideways, halloween + all of the bonus tracks but mostly PAUL REVERE MY BELOVED

WOWZERS
I've been listening to this album non-stop. Obsessed.
faves - oh gemini, frances, the dinner, so far gone, slipfast, compromise, something somehow somewhere

faves - late night talking, grapejuice, daylight, MATILDA, satellite
