State of Grace: This has a good vibe for an opening track, but it doesn't go anywhere. There's no hook or anything really memorable about it. It's even a bit... worthless?
Red: Ugh, the vibe of this song is so good, and Taylor's delivery in the verses really compliments the lyrics. I'm still iffy on the electronic "re-e-e-d" in the chorus, but this is still damn good. Taylor does euphoria excellently.

Treacherous: This is cute. I feel like this is the epitome of most of Swift's work; that she writes these "swept off my feet" major chord backed songs that can connect with a lot of people. It's good, but nothing spectacular.
I Knew You Were Trouble: This song completely revolutionized Swift's career. A total jaw-dropping, break-up anthem that was made even better by the 1989 tour version I think I've overplayed this a little bit, so it's lost its spark, but it's still great.
All Too Well: I remember this Grammy performance vaguely. Isn't this a fan favorite? Regardless, with these lyrics, I anticipated an Innocent style, devastated production. I'm kind of torn by this, she and the production sound nostalgic and heartbroken at the same time - which is pretty unique - but I kinda want her to commit to one mood as opposed to two. I don't see myself coming back to this, but I like the "all too well" part in the chorus a lot.
Put your lips close to mine
As long as they don't touch
Out of focus, eye-to-eye
Till the gravity's too much
And I'll do anything you say
If you say it with your hands
And I'd be smart to walk away
But you're quicksand
