I searched the Internet for lists of the best songs by Taylor Swift so far. Criteria included the songs being ranked, not just listed; covering all time, not just an era; and generally created by groups, whether teams or committees or based on general public voting (like Ranker.com).

I was able to find 43 lists. I took the 43 lists and added all their content into a spreadsheet, noting the rank of every song. I ended up averaging the rankings each song got (there were 272 that were on at least 2 lists) and dividing that average by a factor of the number of lists that song was on. The lowest score meant a high ranking average on many lists. The complete spreadsheet is attached at the bottom.

The songs that were on the most lists (out of 43) were:

  • Love Story – 37 lists
  • Blank Space – 36 lists
  • You Belong With Me – 34 lists
  • Style – 32 lists
  • Wildest Dreams – 28 lists
  • Delicate – 26 lists
  • I Knew You Were Trouble – 25 lists
  • We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together – 25 lists
  • Shake It Off – 25 lists
  • Cruel Summer – 23 lists

Here are links to the lists I used along with dates the lists were created:
