With each album Taylor released a pattern soon emerged that we now know as the famous emotionally devastating, personal and deeply vulnerable Track 5. As Red's iconic track 5, All Too Well, has recently been back in the spotlight, we decided to delve into the stories behind these highly esteemed tracks and debate whether Taylor (consciously or not) made the correct choice in each case. We explore the devastating lyrics of Cold As You, White Horse, Dear John and All Too Well; the shift in tone in the pop infused All You Had To Do Was Stay, Delicate and The Archer; and finally the incredible songwriting in My Tears Ricochet and Tolerate It. Throughout we take a look at the similarities and differences between the songs, suggest our alternate tracks we think could have made the cut and then wrap up by giving our official track 5 ranking.
