Before you test yourself, here's a quick refresher on the 11 eras and what defined each one:

Taylor Swift (2006), Country debut. Wrote every song herself as a teenager. "Tim McGraw" was her first single.

Fearless (2008), Crossover breakthrough. Won the Grammy for Album of the Year, making her the youngest solo artist ever to do so at that time.

Speak Now (2010), Written entirely alone, no co-writers. Underrated. "Back to December" remains one of her most honest songs.

Red (2012), The bridge between country and pop. Messy, emotional, and brilliant. The 10-Minute Version of "All Too Well" released in 2021 proved everyone right about this album.

1989 (2014), Official pop rebrand. "Shake It Off," "Blank Space," "Style," "Out of the Woods." Won Album of the Year, making her the first woman to win it twice.

Reputation (2017), Dark era. "Look What You Made Me Do" announced a new, harder version of Taylor. The Reputation Stadium Tour broke the U.S. concert tour gross record.

Lover (2019), Bright, pastel, optimistic. "ME!" and "You Need to Calm Down" were the singles; "Cruel Summer" became the actual classic.

Folklore (2020), Surprise indie folk album released during COVID lockdown. Won Album of the Year. A narrative trilogy runs through "cardigan," "august," and "betty."

Evermore (2020), Released two months after Folklore. Called its "sister record." "champagne problems" and "no body no crime" are standouts.

Midnights (2022), Self-described "13 sleepless nights." "Anti-Hero" spent 8 weeks at #1. Won her fourth Album of the Year Grammy, a solo record.

The Tortured Poets Department (2024), Dropped the night she won at the Grammys. A double album with 31 tracks. Emotional, raw, and immediately controversial.
