"Anti-Hero"
by Taylor Swift


It wouldn't be a "The Soundtrack of Your LifeOpen in new Window. without an entry from Taylor Swift's latest album! *Bigsmile*

Like almost all of her albums, I start out thinking it's not as good as her earlier ones and then, as I listen to the songs more, I find that I like them more and more. I think the whole Midnights album - and the extended Midnights (3am Edition) - is really good. I was tempted to go with "Maroon" or "Question...?" or "Lavender Haze" for this entry, but "Anti-Hero" is the song I keep coming back to over and over again. It's another great example of her facility with song lyrics, and I love it when she tackles issues like her own flaws and insecurities.

I know a lot of people bag on Taylor Swift for being too commercial or whatever, but I do think she's one of the most talented songwriters of her generation, and is always coming up with something new and exciting and interesting. As a writer, I can only hope to be able to come up with work that's both as catchy and as introspective as Taylor's work often is.
