Haunted is her best, well at least most adventurous on the album, it is very mature.

Too bad most have already judged the song based on the title alone  Poor them.

Enchanted = Better Than Revenge> Never Grow Up = Long Live = Ours> Sparks Fly = Back To December = Haunted> Speak Now = Mean> Last Kiss> Dear John> Story of us> Innocent = Mine
Ours is the easiest song I've listened to. Its catchy, but light and the intro is musically the closest place I can go to right now.

"Haunted" is amazing, I wish the acoustic version was the main one though.  It gives me chills.

Last Kiss Lyrics
I still remember the look on your face
Lit through the darkness at 1:58
The words that you whispered
For just us to know
You told me you loved me
So why did you go, away, away
I do recall now, the smell of the rain
Fresh on the pavement I ran off the plane
That July 9th the beat of your heart
That jumps through your shirt I can still feel your arms
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
I Never thought we'd have our last kiss
I Never thought imagined we'd end like this
Your name forever the name on my lips
I do remember the swing in your step
The life of the party, you're showing off again
And I roll my eyes and then you pull me in
I'm not much for dancing but for you I did
Because I love your hand-shake meeting my Father
I love how you walk with your hands in your pockets
How you'd kiss me when I was in the middle of saying something
Theres not a day I don't miss those rude interruptions
And 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
I Never thought we'd have our last kiss
I Never thought imagined we'd end like this
Your name forever the name on my lips
(Mmmm)
So I'll watch your life in pictures like I used to watch you sleep
And I'll feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe
And I'll keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are
Hope it's nice where you are
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 in time
But I never planned on you changing your mind
So 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
I Never thought we'd have our last kiss
I Never thought imagined we'd end like this
Your name forever the name on my lips
Just like our last kiss
Ever the name on my lips
Ever the name on my lips
Just like our last...

I can relate more to Speak Now, it's even more honest and most importantly, more mature. She sounds really broken in some of these songs, like we have never heard her before.

I love both versions equally, I adore orchestras so the big sound gives me chills too.

that probably why! im still living in her FAIRYTAIL-LAND that she dragged me in. Speak Now and Sparks fly are sooo cute, remind me alot about FEARLESS while DEAR JOHN, ENCHANTED, INNOCENT is a total new side of her.

Long Live Lyrics
I said remember this moment, in the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds and stands went wild
We were the Kings and the Queens
And they read off our names
The night you danced like you knew our lives
Would never be the same
You held your head like a hero
On a history book page
It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age
Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered
I said remember this feeling
I passed the pictures around
Of all the years that we stood there
On the side-lines wishing for right now
We are the Kings and the Queen
You trade your basevall cap for a crown
When they gave us our trophies
And we help them up for our town
And the cynics were outraged
Screaming this is absurd
Cause for a moment a band of theives
In ripped up jeans got to rule the world
Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
I was screaming long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered
Hold on to spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break our fall
Will you take a moment, promise me this
That you'll stand by my forever
But if god forbid fate should step in
And force us into a goodbye
If you have children some day
When they point to the pictures
Please tell them my name
Tell them how the crowds went wild
Tell them how our hope it shined
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life with you
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
I was screaming long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered

Imma review it....
Mine
Mine is the first single that has been out since a rush-release in August. It starts off with an "Uh oh oh oh" and a guitar that sounds out of tune. It has weak lyrics, trying to become a carbon copy of Love Story
Sparks Fly
Sparks is a reworked demo from 2008/9. When she preformed it live, it gave a sneak into her more mature lyrics. It has a lovely chorus with country rock guitars under the mellow "I see sparks fly". Sounds like a potential single to me.
Back To December
The second promo single from the iTunes countdown. It starts off with a tremolo riff and goes into a depressing first verse, into a mouthful of chorus featuring an apology to Taylor Lautner. One of the best off the album.
Speak Now
Taylor has a strong title track again. This song saved my hope for this album when they made it a promo single. It has lyrics talking about a wedding. I know most of you would be complaining, but its not her wedding. She's crashing her ex's wedding.
Dear John
About John Mayer. Too long. Skip.
Mean
The final promo single on iTunes. 3rd #1 iTunes single. It is an alright song, very country. I hope for a future release, so the world can see the country side of her. Skip sometimes.
The Story of Us
Just no. Skip.
Never Grow Up
A charming song about Taylor singing to a child/her child. It warns the kid about not growing up and not facing the world. Taylor sings about mistakes she made and how she's still scared to go on forward. Skip if you don't want to be depressed.
Enchanted
My favorite off the album. This song is 6 minutes of pure amazing. Taylor sings about how it was enchanting to meet someone and how she doesnt want them to love anyone else. She goes on about how this night sparkles and to not let go.
Better Than Revenge
Rocky. It reminds me of Misery Business by Paramore. That's all.
Innocent
Ew. Skip. It has the same out of tune guitars and its just milking more out of the Kanye incident.
Haunted
Another rocky one. I really enjoy the violins in the beginning. Taylor sings about how she is now haunted and can't go back. Sounds very good. Very pop rock.
Last Kiss
Depressing and long. Its good, but not no where near the best. Sometimes skip.
Long Live
A lovely little song about her and someone facing the world together. One of my favorites off the album.
Ours (Bonus)
My favorite bonus track and that's why its the only one I'm reviewing. It's the easiest thing I've listened to. It has a joyful intro and lyrics that are gonna get stuck into your head for hours.

My brain is tired, I will finish the lyrics later.
And if anyone is interested in an in-depth review of the album (Like I did for Bionic and Can't Be Tamed) let me know, I think I'd enjoy doing it...considering doing Teenage Dream too since I'm off school for a week.

Mean is still one of the very best tracks <3333
I'll repeat what I said the other thread,
Grammy's 2012 Album of The Year I just can't 
Haters better get ready to get mad again

Mean is still fantastic.
I keep changing my mind about my favourites, it's all too good...I just can't cope.
