Guts was my choice. SOS or The Record would have been welcome as well. I had Taylor above Miley on preference and around where Batiste was. LDR and Janelle in the middle.

Boygenius on quality would have been happy with Olivia or Lana but figured they were long shots. The only album I liked less than Taylor was Miley but even then I would have preferred Miley winning

Lana or SZA

Guts would have been my choice as well but I still loved Midnights and have no problem with it winning

I liked Midnights. It’s probably in the top half of her discography for me.
5. Midnights
4. Reputation
3. Red
2. Folklore
1. 1989

And my problem is with the current voting base that dismisses Non white artists for AOTY. A women of color has not won since Norah Jones and men of color have also been pushed to the side repeatedly

She should melt them down and commission someone to make one giant Grammy

Reputation shot up the rankings for me when I saw Taylor live last year, it's probably top 5 for me as well. Actually your top 5 might be the same as mine!

Between her Grammys and her about to win her second Oscar I wouldn’t be surprised if she is completely desensitized to winning major awards

Reputation: Taylor's Version took a big hit tonight when she announced that new album instead.

The first time we saw her was on the Rep tour so definitely a bit of experience bias there for me. I just like that style of song for her as well, which is why I think Midnights felt right to me.

It’s easily my least favorite album by her. Even the songs I like on it I have major issues with. Every other album I’ve heard by her I’ve been more forgiving to but I haven’t listened to her discography so I can’t specifically say it’s her worst

I'll argue that the inherent problem is the winner of Best Urban/Best Alternative/Best Country typically then get shut out of the AOTY as it was determined they would get something in advance so no need to award them AOTY. Notice what awards SZA and Boygenius won this year. Why can Beyonce win so many other awards but not the grand one?

I thought for sure she was announcing Reputation TV tonight based on her black and white look at the Grammys

My ranking would probably be
1. folklore (top 5 of the decade so far”
2. Fearless (significantly lower than folklore)
3. 1989
4. Self titled
5. Speak Now
6. Evermore
7. midnights
Never listened to lover or rep
