Is Would've Could've Should've set to dethrone All Too Well 10 as Taylor's best song? In this episode, the 3am tracks are called into question...? How do these songs fit into the Midnights universe? And if they don't, was Taylor was just smart enough to call them 3am tracks instead of bonus tracks?

Well Swifties, it only took 10 albums but we finally have the same favorite song on a Taylor album. In this episode: our opinionated review and breakdown of the 13 tracks on the standard edition of Midnights. We can not contain our excitement over the evolution of Taylor's songwriting on this record! Join us for an epiphany or two about these abstract lyrics, how Midnights is the perfect bookend to Taylor Swift's discography up to this point, why we think this is Red's sister album, and an ode to Jack Antonoff: Blesser of Weird Sounds.

But what about the 3am tracks, you say? Don't worry, we're as annoying as the woman (Taylor) who raised us. Our part 2, where we discuss the 3am tracks and wrap up our Midnights album breakdown, is coming next!

Happy Midnights release week! This is our last chance to talk about this album with you before we hear it, and things were fathomed. The Swiftie Sisters break down the puzzling Midnights Mayhem episodes, propose solid predictions for the more ambiguous track names, and share their top 3 predictions for Midnights! So, in true Taylor Swift fashion...meet us at midnight.
