Taylor Swift Just Got Engaged—But Her Best Beginner-Friendly Karaoke Songs Are Still About the Exe

So apparently Taylor Swift is engaged and I’m like… excuse me??

I had to stop scrolling for a sec and make sure I wasn’t reading some fanfic. Can you believe our breakup-anthem queen, the one who taught us all about eyeliner tears and acoustic guitars, is now engaged?! Crazy.

Here’s the thing though: Taylor’s music has basically raised me. 

Love Story was blasting when I had my first crush, All Too Well (yep, the 10-minute one) saw me through my ugliest breakup, and Soon You’ll Get Better held me together when my family was going through hell. I’ve never met her, but she’s low-key my longest relationship. Honestly, she’s the kind of bestie who just gets you at 2 a.m. when you’re crying in your car eating Hot Cheetos.

• Beginner-friendly: ★★★★★

Vocal range: G3 – E5, comfy middle ground. And if you’re like me and had no idea what your actual vocal range was—don’t panic. There are apps that test it for you.

Lyrics density: Low to Medium—lots of space, and the chorus is just free therapy.

This song is basically the national anthem of unrequited crushes. It’s often ranked on every Taylor Swift karaoke songs list because it’s easy to sing and everyone knows the chorus. Singing it is like stepping straight into your own teen rom-com, except instead of standing outside his house in the rain, you’re standing on a sticky bar stage holding a $2 mic. Taylor wrote it after overhearing her friend argue with his girlfriend, which makes it even juicier—because every line feels like a subtweet in song form.
