[edit]This is a new page explaining the significance of Taylor Swift's track 5's on each of her albums. It is widely known among the Taylor Swift fanbase that track 5 is always her most emotionally painful and vulnerable song. Many news outlets have also discussed this in rankings of her track 5 songs (see citations on the page). Swift herself explained why they are significant in an Instagram Live session on July 23, 2019 (see citations on the page for this video). This article is important to overall information about Taylor Swift and is especially relevant to explain the significance of her nine track 5 songs. It should be linked in each of those pages to further enhances readers' understanding of what track 5 is and how each track 5 on her albums relates to each other in some way.
Contested deletion
[edit]This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... (This article explains the significance of track 5 o each of Taylor Swift's albums. It is widely known by her fanbase and music critics that track 5's are her most emotionally painful and vulnerable. Swift herself explained that each of her track 5's are the most personal and devastating songs on her albums, and that she has kept this tradition for all nine of her albums. Various music critics from Billboard to Vox have commented on the rawness and sadness of her track 5's and/or created special rankings for them. Track 5 is so important to Taylor Swift's discography that Nylon writes that it is "the most unwavering and constant institution in the Swift musical catalogue" (see article for citation). This article should not be deleted because it provides readers with a greater explanation of the significance of track 5 itself, would add to the pages for each of her songs that are a track 5, and would contribute to overall knowledge of Taylor Swift's musical traditions and fanbase. ) --PublicWriterABC (talk) 19:04, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
- PublicWriterABC, I've declined the speedy deletion tag and I'm in the process of expanding the article so I can try and nominate it for Did you know? I'd like to try and get the prose up to 1,500 characters (about 250-300 words). Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 21:54, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
@Ritchie333 thank you so much! I'm created this page for a school assignment, so unfortunately I do not have additional time to add more. Much appreciated! — Preceding unsigned comment added by PublicWriterABC (talk • contribs) 22:06, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
- By coincidence, I was listening to another band, who also have an album called Red, which also has a emotionally gut-wrenching track five, though probably not in the same manner. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 22:11, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
