Ending on a slower note, Begin Again might just be Red's cutest and most vulnerable moment. It's the one song where love really comes through, Taylor leaves all the worries and unfortunate memories behind and embraces her newest partner. Lyrically, it's just beyond adorable with every little element, such as an unimportant, one might think, part of a conversation to pulling a chair out, being described and even if it might come off as a bit too sweet, it never crosses the line of becoming overwhelmingly saccharine. The accompaying melody is the closest the album has come to pure country and it was the perfect background to the story. It flows seamlessly leaving the listener (well, me at least) in a real paradise where everything is calm, peaceful and beautiful... even if only for ~4 minutes. - @Vilppu

omg this is so beautiful oprah4clap3

#2. State of Grace
9.59

Comments:
It's a great album opener with a nice blend of pop, rock, and country. I used to hate this song but it's now my second favorite. - @Hannah.
Despite being pretty low-key for a rock-influenced track, it's actually one the album's boldest musical statements. It's energetic although it never really explodes, it's anthemic although it doesn't have an instantly recognisable chorus, its hook doesn't catch the listener's attention instantly and yet becomes much more rewarding in a longer run. As opposed to the first lines of lyrics ("I'm walking fast through the traffic lights / Busy streets and busy lives"), it's a track which doesn't reveal all of its greatness on first listen. Instead, it slowly but surely shows its advantages on repeated "meetings" being not only a perfect opener to the incredibly varied and unpredictable world of Red but also a perfect song on its own. - @Vilppu
The best opener in all of musical history.  - @blankdreams.
It's perfect oprah2 the ethereal guitars and breathy vocals ugh slay me. cry6 - @Kali

Highest Rate: 11 @Snow @Taylor @Hannah. @Kali

#1. All Too Well
10.35

Comments:
Even more iconic. Even more perfect. Even more of an anthem. One of the best heartbreak songs that has ever graced my ear drums. One of Taylor's best songs, period. - @Hannah.
Forget Enchanted, this is Taylor at her highest high. Being one of her most complex and sophisticated tracks in every possible aspects, it tells a story of a doomed relationship. It starts rather innocently when Swift describes the past moments, the moments when she felt true love and joy with her former boyfriend. However, as the track progresses, the mood changes - it's the break-up (and her absolute lyrical peak with the "And you call me up again just to break me like a promise / So casually cruel in the name of being honest" lines) where you can almost feel the pain the lyrical I was experiencing. The production and instruments follow the lyrical and emotional content: at first All Too Well seems like a warm, pretty country ballad but when it reaches its climax, it becomes an expressive, insanely hard-hitting and thrilling rock composition. It takes a certain talent to write a track like this, however, it also takes a certain talent to pull it off convincingly. It's another area where Tay does not disappoint though. She might not be an exceptional vocalist but the emotions she provides here are truly commendable. All in all, a magnum opus and (sadly) one of her last brilliant creative moments before she collapsed in on herself (1939). - @Vilppu
Nothing deserves the 12 more than this, I mean... the emotion, the melody. THE ABSOLUTE SNUB FOR THIS NOT BEING A SINGLE. THE ICONIC HAIRFLIPS. - @blankdreams.
Overrated within the fanbase. It has good lyrics but it's not that special. - @Snow
A masterpiece. rav3 - @Kali

Welcome to the megarate of Taylor Swift's magnum opus RED. Here we will be deciding which songs from Taylor's fourth studio album are either flops or bops. Also, please excuse my graphics skills.

Hello everyone!   If you are tagged below that just means I am confirming that I have received your rates and this should just act as a reminder that I am still running this, I haven't forgotten.
