Taylor Swift Reveals Two Favorite Songs From Her Catalog on ‘The Late Show With Stephen Colbert’: Rankings are ‘Constantly Changing’

Taylor Swift Reveals Two Favorites Amidst Ever-Changing Rankings

When asked by Stephen Colbert for her top five favorite songs, Taylor Swift initially agreed to provide an answer, but quickly clarified that her rankings are constantly shifting. She assured the late-night host that she would need some time to deliberate and return with a definitive list.

While she couldn't narrow it down just yet, Swift did reveal two of her current favorites - 'All Too Well,' the 10-minute version, and 'The Life of a Showgirl.' The latter is the title track from her latest album, which has been sitting atop the Billboard 200 chart for its fourth consecutive week.

Swift also gave a nod to another song from 'The Folklore' album, 'Mirrorball,' saying it had recently caught her attention after a friend sent it over. While she couldn't commit to ranking this particular track in her top five just yet, she did acknowledge its influence.

It's clear that Swift's musical preferences are as fluid and dynamic as they are eclectic, with new favorites emerging all the time. As for Colbert, he'll have to wait patiently for an update - or rather, a constantly changing list of rankings from one of music's most iconic artists.
 
Ugh, I'm getting so sick of these 'favorite songs' interviews 🙄. Taylor Swift is like, totally honest about her favorites changing all the time. Like, what even is the point of sharing that info? It's not like we can keep up with her ever-shifting rankings anyway 🤯. And honestly, I'm a bit miffed she didn't share more about her actual writing process or songwriting inspiration - that's where the real magic happens, you know? Anyway, 'All Too Well' is still a banger 💖, and I need to bump up those 10-minute versions on my playlist ASAP 🎶.
 
can't believe taylor swift is always like that, always changing her mind about her fave songs 🤷‍♀️💔 i mean, isn't it nice to just stick with what you know? i've got a few faves myself, but they're not as dramatic as hers... 'all too well' is cool and all, but 10 minutes long? that's just too much for me 😂 sometimes i wish artists would just be more consistent, you know?
 
😊 I gotta say, Taylor Swift is like that one friend who always introduces you to new tunes and then forgets what you liked about them... just kidding! Kinda. But seriously, it's crazy how her top 5 songs can change daily lol. She's got so many amazing songs out there, it's hard to pick faves when they're all so awesome! 'All Too Well' is like, one of those emotional rollercoaster tracks that never gets old for me 🎵. I'm glad she mentioned 'The Life of a Showgirl', that song has been on repeat in my playlist for ages! And 'Mirrorball' from Folklore? What a beautiful, mystical vibe 😌... anyway, can't wait to see what her next rankings bring! 🤔
 
idk why people keep asking taylor swift for her "favorite" songs lol she's always saying they change & now even said 2 songs are current faves 🤷‍♀️ but honestly i think it's cool that her musical tastes are all over the place, like we should be inspired by artists evolving & exploring new sounds!
 
🤩🎶 Taylor Swift is like, totally my vibe 💖! I'm so down with her music being ever-changing 🔄💃 - it's like, she never gets stuck in a rut 🌐! And omg, 'All Too Well' is EVERYTHING 💔😭... I mean, have you listened to the 10-minute version? 🤯 It's like, the ultimate emotional rollercoaster 🎠! And 'The Life of a Showgirl' is such a bop 🎵👑... can't wait for more music from her 📀🎶. Stephen Colbert just has to be patient 😊 - she'll update us soon enough 🕰️! 💖
 
omg taylor swift is literally so in tune with her vibe right now 🤯 i love how she owns that constant shift in her fave songs - like, who hasn't had their tastes change mid-year? anyway it's dope to see 'all too well' and 'the life of a showgirl' on the list lol i still need to listen to 'mirrorball' tho... tbh have u listened to taylor's latest album yet? 🎵👀
 
🤦‍♀️ I mean, what's up with Taylor Swift and her "rankings" 🤔? Can't she just pick 5 songs and stick to them for once? It's like she's trying to keep us all on our toes... or should I say, on our Spotify playlists 😂. And those two songs she did reveal - 'All Too Well' is a classic, no doubt, but come on, we've known that for ages 💁‍♀️. And what's with the "friend sent it over" thing? Like, Taylor has an entire team of people who send her new music to listen to... 🤝. Anyway, I'm still holding out for a definitive top 5 list - or at least one that doesn't change every five minutes 😂🎵
 
🎶 think its kinda cool that taylors favorite songs are like her moods or something 🤷‍♀️ her taste in music is so on point and always evolving i mean who can keep up with the 10-minute versions of old songs? 🕰️ but seriously, its awesome that shes not afraid to share her love for new tracks like 'mirrorball' from folklore - shows she's still all about discovery & experimentation 💖 meanwhile, we're just over here waiting for the next ranking update lol
 
Ugh I'm so confused about Taylor Swift's top 5 fave songs lol 🤯 she can't even commit to just two?! Like I get it, she's got so many amazing tracks and they all mean something different to her, but come on! It feels like she's playing this game of musical roulette where you never know which song will be at the top of her list next. And don't even get me started on how much I love 'All Too Well' 😩 that 10-minute version is literally my ultimate bop. But seriously, can we just have a definitive ranking for once?! I'm over this constantly changing thing and it's making me feel like I'll never be able to fully connect with her music 🙄. On the other hand 'The Life of a Showgirl' is giving me life 🔥 that song is so captivating and I love how it represents this raw emotion. And who knows maybe one day we'll get that full top 5 list... a girl can dream, right? 🎶
