Skinnydip London: Where Creativity Meets Style.
2024 has, without question, been the year of Taylor Swift! To celebrate our favourite superstar, we’ve come up with a top 5 "MUST LISTEN" tracklist that you simply have to add to the playlist. Keep an eye out for Easter eggs in our Swifties iPhone case collection!
YOU BELONG WITH ME
Starting strong with a classic! This song was released in 2008 on her award-winning album Fearless and is one of her most popular songs ever. Taylor was 18 when she wrote this song and was inspired by one of her male band members after overhearing him arguing with his girlfriend on the phone. In this song, Taylor is describing a fictional ‘girl next door’ situation whereby a girl believes that they are better suited to a boy than his current girlfriend. This song is such a power ballad for every girl or boy who is looking for a song to scream to in the shower, car or to whip out during karaoke!
CRUEL SUMMER
Next up we have Cruel Summer which is Taylor’s most streamed song on Spotify, reaching over 1.8 million streams! It is the 2nd song from her album ‘Lover’ and has had HUGE amounts of social media coverage recently due to it being part of the Eras Tour setlist. Taylor described this song as being about an uncertain, spontaneous yet temporary summer romance making it extremely relatable to most teenagers and adults who have experienced this. It is also extremely catchy and has been rated as having the best bridge across all of her songs. Definitely give this one a listen!
ALL TOO WELL
Don’t be intimidated by the length of this one, but yes, we are talking specifically about the 10 minute version of Taylor’s song ‘All too Well’. If you don’t know, get to know! She originally released ‘All too Well’ in her album Red as a 5:29 minute song yet after revealing in multiple interviews that the song was originally much longer, she released the 10-minute song on her re-recorded album ‘Red (Taylor’s Version)’. This song is also featured on her Eras Tour setlist and is an ultimate fan favourite. However, it might take a few weeks to learn all the words to this one…
Slowing down the tempo a tiny bit for the next one which is August! This song is featured on Taylor’s surprise album ‘Folklore’ which was released during the Covid pandemic to entertain her fans. The storyline of this song is about the aftermath of a summer romance and along with the songs ‘Betty’ and ‘Cardigan’, August describes one perspective of a summer love triangle. It was also famously used to promote season 2 of the hit show ‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’ which you should totally watch if you haven’t. Let us know if you’re team Conrad or Jeremiah as we are completely torn!
ENCHANTED
Last but definitely not least is the power ballad Enchanted from the album Speak Now. If you are on TikTok, chances are that you have already heard this song with it going viral in Winter of 2021 and gaining millions of streams as a result. It is also the only single from Speak Now on the Eras Tour setlist which must show something! This song is about Taylor fantasising over a boy and is relatable to anyone that has ever had a crush, making it a timeless classic. This one definitely secures a place in the top 5!
