About This Quiz

This quiz spans 70 questions in easy, medium and "only the die‑hards know" brackets, and encompasses albums, Easter eggs, co-contributors and even cat names.

You’ll see Fearless country twang, 1989 pop sheen, Folklore indie woods and The Tortured Poets Department hushed secrets.

Each question pits you against subtly related options — was it a lyric from "Mine" or "Ours"? Did she bake cookies in the year of our Lord, 2014, or star in a rom‑com? — so familiarity with the charts just isn't sufficient. Want to confirm your Swiftie cred once and for all? Pick up your guitar (or your cardigan) and strum along!
