Posted September 26, 20177 yr Simple really, which album opener is the best? Obviously we can't judge RFI in terms of the album being set up by it, but obv we have heard it as a song so I included it anyway.
September 26, 20177 yr Author State Of Grace just pips WTNY for me, it's a great start to Red and sets the scene sonically very well, it's epic in sound and always sets up for the ride of listening to Red, it's a sound I wouldn't mind hearing her tackle more of actually. 01 State Of Grace 02 Welcome To New York 03 Ready For It 04 Fearless 05 Mine 06 Tim McGraw I love all the top 5 though, I do like Tim McGraw but it is one of her weakest singles.
September 26, 20177 yr "Welcome to New York" sets up 1989 perfectly :heart: "State of Grace" likewise for Red.
September 26, 20177 yr Mine is my favourite song on this list (I'd say it's in my top five Taylor songs, still sounds so good all these years later :wub:) but I can imagine Ready For It is going to sound SO good as the album opener with it's lyrics and things. I'm so excited for Reputation now :w00t:
September 26, 20177 yr 1. Mine 2. State Of Grace 3. Welcome To New York 4. Fearless 5. …Ready For It 6. Tim McGraw
