My Top Ten Songs by Taylor Swift I do not have a favorite song of hers, but here are 10 that I like: 10. Teardrops On My Guitar 9. White Horse 8. Better than Revenge 7. Picture to Burn 6. Love Story 5. Our Song 4. Should’ve Said No 3. Speak Now 2. You Belong With Me 1. Enchanted My #1 favorite song by Taylor Swift is… I like this song because this genre is different, and the slow beat shows that Taylor Swift’s music is maturing. At the same time, it has her signature touch because there is a story in every one of her songs. That is why I enjoy listening to her so much. “This night is sparkling, don't you let it go I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home I'll spend forever wondering if you knew I was enchanted to meet you” This is the chorus to this song and the lyrics are so well written with language that an artist usually wouldn’t use.
