Welcome to the final instalment in my Midnights ranking series! So far I've done Ranking Midnights Based on Track Titles before I heard it and Ranking Midnights on First Listen so it only felt right to give a more complete ranking now all the songs are out and exactly a year has passed since release day. I think my ranking will have changed quite a lot, but I'm not letting myself check my old posts until after I've finished writing this one!
1. Would've, Could've, Should've
2. Glitch
3. Maroon
4. Anti-Hero
5. Hits Different
6. High Infidelity
7. Dear Reader
8. Snow On The Beach (Feat. More Lana)
9. Sweet Nothing
10. You're Losing me
11. Lavender Haze
12. Labyrinth
13. The Great War
14. Bigger Than The Whole Sky
15. Vigilante Shit
16. Bejeweled
17. Question...?
18. Paris
19. Karma
20. You're On Your Own, Kid
21. Snow On The Beach (feat. Lana Del Rey)
22. Midnight Rain
23. Mastermind
24. Karma (feat. Ice Spice)
This was so difficult! Obviously, now I've lived with these songs for a whole year, my ranking is much more about the connection I've built with them and what they mean to me rather than what I objectively thought on first listen. I actually found my top 10 the easiest bit to do, as the highs of Midnights are real highs, but the bit I found tricky was ordering 13 onwards, as these are the songs I'm just not listening to at the moment. In some cases, songs fell this low because I overplayed them so much when Midnights originally came out, others are just ones I don't find myself playing much. Snow On The Beach ft Lana is simply down there at 21 because the More Lana version is so superior I don't need the old one anymore. Karma ft Ice Spice is the only song on this list that I actually don't like. Considering there are 24 songs (like hours in the day, she's genius), I'd say that's pretty amazing. Comment below your favourite from Midnights (all versions), I'd love to talk Taylor with you!
