Taylor Swift is one of the best-selling musicians of all time globally. With her extensive discography and massive chart-topping hits, it is undeniable that she has a handful of underrated songs.
Across her nine studio albums, Swift has produced smash hits that are already embedded in today's pop culture, including "Love Story," "All Too Well," and "Blank Space," among others.
We took the liberty of listing 10 of Taylor Swift's Most Underrated Songs that were forgotten or were not that known to everybody but were still proof of how great a songwriter Tay Tay really is.
10 Taylor Swift Most Underrated Songs
- Haunted (Speak Now)
Per Swift, the song is about the tragic moment a person realizes that their partner is already falling out of love - something she has experienced before. She revealed that she wrote the song in the middle of the night after waking up and feeling the heartbreaking emotional journey.
- Crazier (Hannah Montana: The Movie)
Although "Crazier" hit the charts because of its inclusion in "Hannah Montana: The Movie," the track was one of Taylor's most raw ones and was also one of the most forgotten since it was not included in any of her albums.
- False God (Lover)
Avid fans have put out different interpretations of this Lover track. Some say it was referring to his then-relationship with actor Joe Allwyn. However, Swift cleared out speculations and confirmed that it instead symbolically alluded to the "love" she had with her partner.
- Holy Ground (Red (Taylor's Version))
Re-released in 2021, "Holy Ground" is one of Swift's most hooking tracks on the album. Lyrically, the song journeys on what seemed to be a time when Swift was in love and is reminiscing the "holy ground" they once stood on before falling out of love.
- The Other Side of the Door (Fearless (Taylor's Version))
The Country pop tune re-released recently is one of Taylor's most underrated pieces as it beautifully narrates a person's conflicting emotions after her partner cheated on her.
- Only The Young (Miss Americana)
Featured only in her 2020 documentary "Miss Americana," the separate track is dubbed by critics as Swift's most politically-charged song yet. "Only The Young," a protest song, alludes to US' most-pressing issue at the time, school shootings and Donald Trumps' vote tampering allegations.
- New Romantics (1989)
Inspired mainly by 1980s synth-pop, the track is often overlooked because it was only made available on the deluxe version of "1989." The euphoric track features Taylor's vocals blending in almost electronic beats
- Call It What You Want (Reputation)
The second promotional single of her controversial "Reputation" album features a rapping Taylor Swift. According to Jack Antonoff, Swift's trusted producer, it was in this track that they made the singer's vocals into an instrument heard throughout the song.
- Paper Rings (Lover)
"Paper Rings" might be one of the most upbeat songs in Taylor Swift's discography. The track is included in the optimistic "Lover" album, a polar opposite of "Reputation," the album it followed.
- Safe & Sound (The Hunger Games)
Last on the list is Swift's hauntingly beautiful collaboration with The Civil Wars for "The Hunger Games" soundtrack in 2012. Swift's vocals and songwriting prowess were highlighted in this track as it captured the mood and concept of the movie it was featured on.
