List of songs by Taylor Swift

The American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift has written or co-written every song in her twelve-album discography, with the exception of several cover versions and guest features. She has also written standalone singles, songs for film soundtracks, and songs recorded by other artists. Swift signed a publishing contract with Sony/ATV Tree Music Publishing to become a professional songwriter in 2005. She signed with Big Machine Records in 2005, and the label released her first six studio albums until the contract expired in 2018. Her early-career songwriting outputs featured collaborations with Liz Rose, who co-wrote with Swift for the albums Taylor Swift (2006), Fearless (2008), and Red (2012). She was the sole writer of the majority of Fearless and Red, and she wrote her third studio album, Speak Now, solely herself. Promoted to country radio, these four albums incorporate mainstream pop and rock elements, and some Red songs feature influences of electronic and hip-hop. She recalibrated her artistry from country to pop with her fifth studio album, 1989 (2014), which includes writing collaborations with Jack Antonoff, Max Martin, and Shellback. The three writers-producers worked with Swift again on her sixth studio album, Reputation (2017). Swift signed with Republic Records in 2018 and has worked with Antonoff on every album she released thereafter. Her first album under Republic, Lover (2019), is a pop album that features collaborations with Ryan Tedder, Joel Little, Louis Bell, and Frank Dukes. In 2020, Swift signed a new publishing deal with Universal Music Publishing Group and released two albums, Folklore and Evermore, which both incorporate indie folk. Folklore and Evermore contains collaborations with Aaron Dessner, who became a frequent collaborator with Swift in the subsequent albums, Midnights (2022) and The Tortured Poets Department (2024), which both have a synth-pop sound. Swift's former boyfriend, the actor Joe Alwyn, co-wrote several songs with her for Folklore, Evermore, and Midnights. For her twelfth studio album, The Life of a Showgirl (2025), Swift co-wrote and co-produced every track with Martin and Shellback. Swift's departure from Big Machine resulted in a public dispute over the ownership of her first six albums in 2019, and she re-recorded them to claim ownership to their master recordings. From 2021 to 2023, she released four re-recorded albums—Fearless (Taylor's Version), Red (Taylor's Version), Speak Now (Taylor's Version), and 1989 (Taylor's Version); each includes unreleased songs Swift had written but excluded from the original releases.
