I've also noticed that Taylor tends to make her tracklists uptempo-uptempo-slow-uptempo-slow-etc. 
 And the first three songs are always singles.    |

 I think John was also in the top ten. I'm quite sure she had like 6-7 songs in the top ten.

 We should play a game where we post a lyric and the next person picks a lyric that starts with the last word of the lyric before. 
 For instance: ''I go back to December all the time''
 ''Time turns flames to ember you'll have new Septembers''
 ''September saw a month of tears''
