Taylor Swift’s discography is massive. But how many songs does Taylor Swift have in total? Let’s break it down without the fluff, just straight facts with human clarity.
Total Songs by Taylor Swift (as of August 2025)
As of now, Taylor Swift has released over 280 songs officially across her studio albums, re-recordings, bonus tracks, and collaborations.
But what counts as a “song” here?
We’re including:
- All tracks from her 11 studio albums (originals + re-recordings)
- Bonus and deluxe edition songs
- Featured collaborations
- Official soundtrack contributions
- Non-album singles and promotional tracks
Not included: Unreleased demos, leaks, or live-only performances.
How many songs are on each Taylor Swift album?
Here’s a fast breakdown album by album:
- Taylor Swift (2006) – 15 songs (including deluxe)
- Fearless (2008) – 19 songs
- Fearless (Taylor’s Version) (2021) – 26 songs
- Speak Now (2010) – 17 songs
- Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) (2023) – 22 songs
- Red (2012) – 16 songs
- Red (Taylor’s Version) (2021) – 30 songs
- 1989 (2014) – 16 songs
- 1989 (Taylor’s Version) (2023) – 21 songs
- Reputation (2017) – 15 songs
- Lover (2019) – 18 songs
- Folklore (2020) – 17 songs
- Evermore (2020) – 17 songs
- Midnights (2022) – 20 songs (3am edition)
- The Tortured Poets Department (2024) – 31 songs (Anthology version)
Curious why there are duplicates for some albums?
That’s because of the re-recordings. When Taylor began releasing her “Taylor’s Version” albums, she included “From the Vault“ tracks — brand new songs written back in the original era but never released until now.
Do the re-recordings count as new songs?
Good question.
Technically, many re-recorded tracks are re-releases, so the lyrics and melodies are the same. But the Vault tracks are entirely new to the public.
For example:
- Red (Taylor’s Version) includes 9 new Vault tracks.
- 1989 (Taylor’s Version) adds 5 unreleased songs.
So if we’re counting only unique songs (not re-recorded duplicates), the number slightly drops — but it still remains well above 215+ original, unique songs.
Has Taylor written all her songs?
Yes, and that’s rare.
Taylor is one of the few major pop stars who’s credited as a writer or co-writer on every single song she’s released.
Even on albums like 1989 or Midnights where she worked with producers like Jack Antonoff or Max Martin, Taylor’s pen is always involved.
Why is this important?
Because it proves she’s not just a performer — she’s a songwriter through and through.
How many unreleased songs does Taylor Swift have?
There are dozens of known unreleased tracks that Swifties have speculated about for years. These include demos, early recordings, and songs mentioned in interviews or leaks.
Some known ones:
- “I’d Lie”
- “Need You Now” (not the Lady A song)
- “Dark Blue Tennessee”
But since these aren’t officially released, we’re not counting them in the main total.
Still, it’s likely that Taylor has written well over 350 songs, considering unreleased material.
How many features or collaborations has she done?
Taylor’s featured in a number of songs by other artists, including:
- “Highway Don’t Care” with Tim McGraw
- “Two Is Better Than One” with Boys Like Girls
- “Gasoline (Remix)” with HAIM
- “The Joker and the Queen” (Ed Sheeran ft. Taylor Swift)
In total, she’s done over 20 notable collaborations.
Some fans also count live-only duets, but again, we’re only sticking to official track releases.
What about soundtracks?
Taylor has contributed songs to several soundtracks:
- The Hunger Games: “Safe & Sound” and “Eyes Open”
- Cats: “Beautiful Ghosts”
- Valentine’s Day: “Today Was a Fairytale”
These are included in her total, adding about 5-6 unique tracks.
Meanwhile, fellow pop icon Kelly Clarkson is making headlines for a very different reason — pausing her Vegas residency to focus on family during a personal crisis.
How often does Taylor release new songs?
Very often.
Since her 2020 return with Folklore, she’s been releasing albums almost every year, often with surprise drops or double albums. Her release pace has dramatically increased since gaining full creative control.
So can we expect more songs soon?
Absolutely. If history is any guide, another project could drop unexpectedly.

Final Answer: How many songs does Taylor Swift have?

If you focus only on unique, original songs (excluding re-recordings), the number is still well over 215 and growing.
