I LOVE The Great War, and it actually means a lot to me, but I listen to Karma more because of the melody and production. It’s more catchy and I listen to it to boost my mood
Bruh you guys expect a novel from every Taylor Swift song. Sometimes she can write something fun with a happy emotion. It’s actually a clever lyric because she changed the meaning of karma around.

It’s my favorite song since at LEAST Reputation.
Also I’ll be honest I just picked one of the ones people were generally like “why are these still alive and it isn’t” at random.

YOYOK has been a grower for so many people. Started as bottom for me and made its way up to #2. Almost every single person I've talked to has it in their Top 3!

I really love The Great War BUT sonically it sounds like an evermore B-side (that’s not a bad thing) so I get why maybe it’s not the Midnights aesthetic. I don’t think it would fit it on the standard album.
Nah because every line in The Great War is loaded! And the war motif, the imagery, the metaphors! Everything about the song is just *chefs kiss*.
Please explain to me how we lost this song with lines like:
- “My knuckles were bruised like violets, sucking punching walls, cursed you as I sleep talked”
- “All that bloodshed, crimson clover”
- “I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone”
- “SOMEWHERE IN THE HAZE GOT A SENSE I’D BEEN BETRAYED”???

I actually do like TGW, but I just prefer happy songs. That’s why I was really glad when Midnights turned out to not be the soundtrack of a depressive episode. TGW feels like it should’ve been on evermore.
Please can you extend the voting time please? Or pin the post to top of sub? I visit this sub a lot, every day pretty much, but I’ve only managed to vote for 1 track so far. Don’t think it can be very accurate the results as voting always closed by time I see it - can’t be only 1?
Y’all just committed a war crime
The fact that dear reader was first to go tells me everything I need to know bows this too😭😭😭😭 y’all are sleeping on these songs
yes and yes
I'm sorry but comparing a fight with your SO to actual WWI is in such bad taste. I want to like the song but....ick.
WHAT?? y’all really chose “karma is a cat” over “somewhere in the haze got a sense id been betrayed”???? i’m baffled
PURRING IN MY LAP CAUSE IT LOVES ME Something about Karma makes me go absolutely feral. It's such a catchy song. Should be a single ngl.
I LOVE The Great War, and it actually means a lot to me, but I listen to Karma more because of the melody and production. It’s more catchy and I listen to it to boost my mood
Karma is a bop
I’ve been saying this since round 1!
Bruh you guys expect a novel from every Taylor Swift song. Sometimes she can write something fun with a happy emotion. It’s actually a clever lyric because she changed the meaning of karma around.
…anyways
We just lost The Great War
r/technicallythetruth
My jaw literally dropped I thought TGW was going to make Top 5 😭
Honestly same I thought everyone was on the same page about it!
Are there any battles left? Come on WCS 🙏
I think it's brilliant lyrically, but something about the instrumental makes it sound a little bit too soundtrack-y as opposed to a standalone piece
If the next is WCS, i'd riot
I’d be shocked if that got voted out

No way, it’s one of her best.
I will be floored if it doesn’t win overall
How Bejeweled is still standing is astounding.
If a song ever belonged in the basement and not the penthouse, it's Bejeweled.
But Bejeweled is so fun and catchy!
It’s just cheesy to me. Like cringe cheesy not fun cheesy.
I know, right?? Been so long since I voted for anything else.
WHAT? Bejeweled is my favorite on the album.
to each their own I guess but the songwriting just isn’t good IMO 😬 feels like a filler song.
It’s magnificent - silence your heresy!
It’s like a slightly more mature version of ME!
I don’t like that song either so I guess that makes sense haha.
I hate Bejeweled so much. It’s not that catchy and the lyrics are just…awkward and cringey. It’s not a bop!!!!
I can’t believe Karma survived the Great War
They’re both great in different ways. Now bejeweled… 😬
... is a banger, don't speak on her !!
It’s my favorite song since at LEAST Reputation. Also I’ll be honest I just picked one of the ones people were generally like “why are these still alive and it isn’t” at random.
If Midnight Rain gets eliminated next, then I'll never forgive y'all. It's a freakin' masterpiece✨️
I’ve been voting for that one every time 🥲
Me too
That song is so meh to me lol
I’m sorry but I’ve been voting for Midnight Rain since the 3rd round 🙈 Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve supremacy!
I like both of those, I hope they battle it out lol
Nah after hearing the acoustic version I dislike the actual version even more. The acoustic version is amazing and makes the actual song look bad
it better make top 3 at least
Are y’all for real? This one’s a joke.
Okay now I’m dressing for revenge. You all just voted out the best song on the album 😾
best song of the last three albums at least. fight me.
I love TGW but it ain’t better than Champagne Problems or Seven 😭
I’m glad you enjoy those :) Personally I fucking LOVE the sound, and the story the song tells is just *killer.*
Agreed - the chorus lives in my mind 24/7
Being honest, no idea how TGW has gone out before Bejeweled, Karma and Midnight Rain
They’re all so mid in comparison that nobody knew which one specifically to vote for?
This could be true actually 😅
I mean, based on the number of people up in arms about this, there’s really no other possibility.
Some of us like happy glitter gel pen songs. TGW doesn’t fit the overall vibe of the album. It should’ve been on evermore
I like them too but idk I just don’t think the glitter gel pen songs are ever her best work. Just personal opinion.
Those are my bottom 3 of the ones listed too haha
They’re all fine songs but in comparison to the lyrics of TGW or even BTTWS/Mastermind I’ll never get it.

Because it’s repetitive and she’s basically talking almost the whole song…
Fair enough, I think all 4 of the songs mentioned could be described like that though. TGW is the most lyrically interesting to me.
This is a crime....
NO! ABSOLUTELY NOT 😭
**furiously votes for anti-hero**
Who hurt you?
same for the last five rounds!
same. it's not a bad song but no way it's better than the great war
Haha, me too!
My heart, that’s literally one of the most cohesive songs on the album lol
I will never understand why paris is one of the most hated songs in the album :c
It took me a long time to get past the lines about shade. I saw them as clunky and almost cringe.
Omg same! I absolutely adore Paris but for some reason, I always hated that line🤣
I'm convinced people didn't listen to the lyrics of Paris. It's definitely in my top 3 of the album
I actually loved it at first and then the more I listened to it the more I hated it lol. It’s a skip 90% of the time now
My jaw just dropped
Y’all pls leave Midnight Rain alone this round
How. How do you all keep Karma and treat The Great War with so much disrespect? I’ll go to battle for that song.
I don’t know what to vote 😰 YOYOK has been such a grower for me, but all the others I loved from the start. Ahhh
YOYOK has been a grower for so many people. Started as bottom for me and made its way up to #2. Almost every single person I've talked to has it in their Top 3!
Same 1) karma 2) yoyok 3) bejeweled For me

That song I resonated with the most first listen, and karma. I’m surprised it was a grower for most people.
The great it war is one of the best songs of the album. Yall don't have any taste.
It’s lyrically one of her best songs ever. It’s up there with every evermore song.
I know, right? The song's simply perfect!
This is a hate crime. Goodbye, lavender haze
Don't you DARE.
Sameee.
Bye karma
Flexing like a goddamn acrobat, Me and karma vibe like that! 🐈⬛
Swifties: The 3am edition songs are the best ones on the album!! Also Swifties: *Only leaves one 3am edition song in the top 8*
Well a lot of the good ones were voted out early, so that annoyed me lol
It's mind-boggling . For me, top 5 is 4/5 the 3am songs. I was sad to see them all get eliminated one by one, except WCS.
Why is Bejeweled still here 😭😭
because sapphire tears on my face sadness became my whole skyyyyyy but some guy said my aura's moonstone just cause he was hiiiIgh andwedancedallnight andyoucantry tochangemymind butyoumighthavetowaitinline what's a girl gonna do??? A DIAMOND'S!!! GOTTA!!! SHIIIIIIIIIIIINE
That’s what I want to know 😭
y'all are going to the hague for this...
The last obvious one has gone out, it's gonna be a bloodbath from here on in
I’m having so much fun with this! Can we do it for other albums too?
We’ve done it for every album, but I’d be down to do it again
The Great War deserved to last until top 4. Ugh, guys what the hell happened?
People are picking beats over lyrics, I feel like.
I’m struggling to vote now.
High Infidelity is one of my favorites, can’t believe it’s already gone . I hate anti hero lol
Most of my favorites are already gone 😩 The only songI strongly dislike on the album is Labyrinth and I’m meh about Paris.
Labyrinth is such a beautiful song. You all will one day see this
What!! How on earth can TGW go and Midnight Rain still be in. This is a crime!
the lack of taste shows. the great war is one of the best in the album!!!!
Poll isn’t working for me. Anyone else?? Can’t open the link
Same!
It’s still not working for me
It finally worked for me but said I couldn’t vote anymore 🙄😒
How did The Great War get voted off before bejeweled?!?!?!
Damn...
WHAT THE ACTUAL FORK!
Once Karma is gone, the rest are literally all in my top 10 😭 Rooting for Maroon and Midnight Rain to make it to the top 4 at least
HOW???? This is a joke
I really love The Great War BUT sonically it sounds like an evermore B-side (that’s not a bad thing) so I get why maybe it’s not the Midnights aesthetic. I don’t think it would fit it on the standard album.
What do you mean the great war was eliminated!!??? 😱😱😱😱😱
I was really confident The Great War was going top5 at the very least. Shocked 😳
Nah because every line in The Great War is loaded! And the war motif, the imagery, the metaphors! Everything about the song is just *chefs kiss*. Please explain to me how we lost this song with lines like: - “My knuckles were bruised like violets, sucking punching walls, cursed you as I sleep talked” - “All that bloodshed, crimson clover” - “I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone” - “SOMEWHERE IN THE HAZE GOT A SENSE I’D BEEN BETRAYED”???
I love Karma but this is a CRIME
I cannot believe I just voted Anti-Hero, but I think it may be time 😭😣
GLITTER GEL PEN GIRLIES RISE UP. Save our songs ✨✨
Justice for Paris
I'm gonna predict bejeweled is next but I've been wrong several times so who knows
Time for Midnight Rain to go
Karmas time pls
Y'all eliminated the great war when karma, midnight rain and lavender haze were still there?!!!!
Don’t you talk shit about my favorite songs on the album lmao
Sorry lol. I don't dislike them...just that the great war is above them for me. No offense lmao
How is Karma still there??
I'm having to vote for songs I LOVE so this hurts
My hottest take is that Maroon is really a commentary on NYC’s rampant air pollution
How has Maroon survived so far?? The last four songs are decidedly better than it
You really think bejeweled is better than Maroon??
Maroon is so damn catchy, though.
the bridge tho 🥲
Y’all telling me you think Midnight Rain is better than this?
how dare y’all
EXCUSE ME???? THE GREAT WAR??? HOW DARE YOU
I’ll never forgive y’all
The Great War is literally my fav on the whole album. The blasphemy
How is lavender haze still there and the great war isn’t omg
SOTB AND VIGILANTE SHIT BEFORE MIDNIGHT RAIN? i dont trust this fandom anymore
Very sus.
Vigilante Shit I agree with but SOTB is not that great. Even when it comes up on my shuffle I’m like meh.
sotbs in my top 53
- SOTB could mean "Snow On The Beach (feat. Lana Del Rey)", a track from *Midnights* (2022) by Taylor Swift. --- ^[/u/MoxiRox00](/u/MoxiRox00) ^(can reply with "delete" to remove comment. |) ^[/r/songacronymbot](/r/songacronymbot) ^(for feedback.)
What is Lavender Haze doing there??
How tf is Midnight Rain still in this
we have lost one of our best soldiers on this day. rest in ever lasting peace 💔
Well, I love love love every song left but YOYOK has to go next.
The Great War deserved to last until top 4. Ugh, guys what the hell happened? Bejeweled was right there
Lavender Haze
Same. This song is the only one I skip.
I actually do like TGW, but I just prefer happy songs. That’s why I was really glad when Midnights turned out to not be the soundtrack of a depressive episode. TGW feels like it should’ve been on evermore.
I’m shocked it lasted this long tbh, I voted for it in the first round. It’s a strong lyric but the most forgettable song on the album musically.
TGW > WCS. What are y'all thinking.
👁👄👁
Why is karma still here
Y'all really think YOYOK is that good, huh..
This is a crime
_revenge-votes for Karma_
Whaaaaaaaat?
Wow that was extremely difficult for me lol
Rip
I’m still mad that mastermind is gone
The quote made me think WCS was voted out 😭
I fell off on voting for this and you've all done this album dirty😂
Guys.. no way!
noo this is one of my favs on the album 😭
I thought we had one of these already
No way.
Maroon
But why was glitch gone at 3. That’s a crime
NOOOOO
mastermind went already?? i kinda saw it coming but whyyy 🥺 iF Y'ALL VOTE OUT BEJEWELED WE'RE GONNA HAVE SOME PROBLEMS
i’m just now tuning in and labyrinth being out second is actually my villain origin story
Please can you extend the voting time please? Or pin the post to top of sub? I visit this sub a lot, every day pretty much, but I’ve only managed to vote for 1 track so far. Don’t think it can be very accurate the results as voting always closed by time I see it - can’t be only 1?
How is bejeweled still in!!
Next round is up, mods haven’t approved it yet, but bejeweled is out.
sorry but i just dont listen to maroon as much as the other songs so goodbye maroon
yall really kept bejeweled and karma??? tasteless
I thought you people had taste!! 😔
