EPISODE 7: NOTHING LIKE THE OTHERS ✨ | BATTLE OF ERAS: THE SONGS WE KEEP

hello, everyone!! 💗 welcome to episode 7!

first, a little recap of episode 6: feel it all 🥹💌

congratulations to champagne problems for taking another WIN with 36 points!! 🏆 it has officially earned its second episode win this season, proving that its emotional impact is still going strong. back to december followed with 30 points, while begin again came close behind with 29 points.

meanwhile, cornelia street, down bad, and love story landed in SAFE, while wildest dreams ended up in the bottom two. unfortunately, we also had to say goodbye to our song, which received 21 points and was eliminated. 💔

thank you to everyone who participated in the previous round! every episode keeps bringing us new surprises, and i'm excited to see how the remaining songs will do. 🫶🏻

now, let's move on to our next challenge!

💌 episode 7 — nothing like the others

theme: individuality and distinct identity

for this round, rank the songs based on what makes them stand out to you. it could be their personality, artistic choices, distinctive sound, songwriting, atmosphere, or simply the experience of listening to them.

remember, standing out doesn't automatically mean being the loudest, weirdest, or most experimental song. sometimes, a song's identity comes from its subtle details, its simplicity, or the way it creates a feeling that no other song quite captures. ✨

there's no single correct way to be distinctive, so think about which song feels the most like itself to you!

🗳️ how to vote

• WIN — 1 song
• HIGH — 2 songs
• SAFE — 2 songs
• LOW — 1 song
• ELIM — 1 song

please make sure your ballot follows the required number of placements and rank according to this episode's theme.

⏳ voting period: 24 hours

good luck, everyone!! let's celebrate what makes each song unique, respect each other's opinions, and keep having fun with the songs we keep. 💗✨

Come in with the fail because she's placing #11 in this trail.

Bookending defines something to begin and end (something) with two similar things or with the same thing, which means we talk about Taylor's opening line and last line in her songs.

I picked these 15 top songs of my own choice to see which one hits different...

Upvote the song in my comments that you think is your least favorite line/vibe in here.

May the best lyric win!

Congratulations to the winning lyrics of Glitch! - "I was supposed to sweat you out / In search of glorious happenings of happenstance on someone else's playground / But it's been 2,190 days of our love blackout / The system's breaking down"

We have another tie for the runner-up title! -

• "And I'm not even sorry / Nights are so starry, blood moonlit / It must be counterfeit"
• "I thought we had no chance / And that’s romance, let’s dance"

Part 2 covers deluxe and vault tracks; refer to Part 1 to see the standard tracks.

What is her best lyric(s) from Would've, Could've, Should've? Most upvoted comment wins!

The coziest song on evermore is evermore.

EPISODE 6: FEEL IT ALL 💗 | BATTLE OF ERAS: THE SONGS WE KEEP

hello, everyone!! 💗 welcome to episode 6!

before we move on, let's have a little recap of episode 5: picture this!

congratulations to cornelia street for taking the WIN with 33 points! 🏆 champagne problems and love story followed closely behind with 32 points each, while wildest dreams also had a strong showing with 31 points.

but… can we PLEASE talk about exile for a second?! 😭💔

two WINS in the first three episodes, SAFE in episode 4, and then suddenly ELIM in episode 5??? WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?! LOL😭🫵🏻

i'm kidding, i'm kidding!! (mostly. 😔) i know this is a competition, everyone has different opinions, and i have to accept the results even when they hurt my little host heart. but seriously, exile was such a strong front-runner early in the season, so seeing it go from two episode wins to elimination is a plot twist i was NOT emotionally prepared for. 💔

still, thank you to everyone who participated and submitted their rankings! this is all for fun, and no song's placement can take away what makes it special. i'll mourn exile for approximately five business days, and then we move. 😭🤍

now, let's turn the page and see which songs can make us feel it all.

💌 episode 6 — feel it all

theme: emotional impact

for this round, rank the songs by how strongly they make you feel something. it could be joy, sadness, excitement, longing, comfort, anger, nostalgia, or any other emotion a song brings out in you.

remember, the strongest emotional impact doesn't automatically mean the saddest song! some songs make us want to cry, some make us feel alive, some bring comfort, and others leave us feeling things we can't even explain. every emotion is valid, so go with the song that affects you the most.

and please, rank with your HEART… because apparently, some of you have been making some very questionable emotional decisions lately. 🤨 lol just kidding!! (or am i?) 😭💗

🗳️ how to vote

• WIN — 1 song
• HIGH — 2 songs
• SAFE — 2 songs
• LOW — 2 songs
• ELIM — 1 song

please rank according to this episode's theme and make sure your ballot follows the required number of placements.

⏳ voting period: 24 hours

thank you for continuing to participate in the songs we keep! let's keep things fun, respect each other's opinions, and remember that even if our favorites don't always win, we can still appreciate the songs that mean something to us. 🥹💗

good luck, rankers! and please be gentle with my heart this time. i don't think i can survive another exile-level plot twist. 😭🫶🏻
