Which Taylor Swift '1989' Song You Are, Based On Your Zodiac Sign

Come with Us on a journey back to 2014, before Taylor Swift had feuded with Kim Kardashian or embarked on her ambitious album rerecording project. Her worst “Bad Blood” was with Katy Perry, and she was still besties with Karlie Kloss. It was truly a simpler time.

1989 dropped in October of that year, making Swift’s transformation from a country singer to a bonafide popstar complete. A decade later, the album is still one of her most beloved. To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the OG record — Swift later released 1989 (Taylor’s Version) in October 2023 — Us gave 1989 a spin and decided which song best corresponds to each astrological sign.

Keep scrolling to see which 1989 song speaks to you, based on your zodiac sign:

Aries: ‘Shake It Off’

The first single from 1989 is perfect for the first sign of the Zodiac. Swift’s playful and joyous dismissal of the haters, who are ultimately “gonna hate, hate, hate,” screams Aries. You won’t catch these self-assured fire signs living life on anyone else’s terms or kowtowing to their critics. Confident and honest, an Aries will call out the “fakers” and flirt with that “fella over there with the hella good hair” in the same breath. They’re not afraid to be a bit corny either, and will probably unironically talk about “getting down to this sick beat.”

While many of Swift’s songs about facing public scrutiny are a bit darker — see The Tortured Poets Department’s “Clara Bow” and “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?” — “Shake It Off” is simply fun and unbothered, just like an Aries.

Taurus: ‘All You Had to Do Was Stay’

Tauruses are straightforward communicators and they don’t like to play games. You can count on them to look back at a failed relationship and deliver a devastatingly simple summation like, “All you had to do was stay.” It’s hard to argue with that, and no one should, because these stubborn earth signs rarely back down from their firm convictions.

As one of the most loyal signs, Tauruses will “want to believe you when you say you’ve changed,” but that doesn’t mean they give out second chances easily. They aren’t ones to forgive and forget, which is why they’re often “gone forever when you say goodbye.”

Gemini: ‘Blank Space’

Geminis have one of the more mischievous reputations of the zodiac, and they lean into that, much like Swift leaned into the public’s perception of her as an “insane” serial dater with “a long list of ex lovers” on “Blank Space.” Just as Swift explored a fictionalized version of herself on this 1989 single, Geminis tend to exaggerate how chaotic they are.

There are some messy Gemini stereotypes, however, that ring true. These air signs are highly adaptable, and they’re able to “find out what you want” and then “be that girl for a month.” While this allows them to form connections easily, it also makes it hard for them to share their true natures with others. Don’t feel too bad for them, though. Geminis love nothing more than a juicy story, especially if they’re at the center of it.

“It’s gonna be forever, or it’s gonna go down in flames,” they’ll casually tell you over brunch with a grin.

Cancer: ‘Clean’

Us had to save the most emotionally devastating 1989 track for Cancers, who are perpetually in their feelings. These water signs love hard, and they won’t downplay just how much a breakup destroyed them. They know that the only way to move through heartbreak is to feel it fully; that being able to “finally breathe” again comes after “drowning” in sorrow first.

Despite their capacity for pain, Cancers don’t seek it out. They crave security, peace and comfortable home environments, so once they get “clean” from a bad relationship, they’re “never gonna risk” going back to that dynamic again.

Leo: ‘Wildest Dreams’

Leos are confident and have a flair for the dramatic, so if you insist on letting them go, they will at least make sure you miss them. When these fire signs feel a relationship start to fizzle, it’s important to them that their soon-to-be-ex has memories of them “in a nice dress” at sunset with “red lips and rosy cheeks.” Don’t be surprised if you show up to break it off with a Leo only to find that they’ve never looked better.

Ruled by the sun, Leos are the warm, bright, center of the solar system, and they know it — just like they know that memories of them will “follow you around” long after you’ve parted ways.

Virgo: ‘Out of the Woods’

Virgos are the perfectionists and problem solvers of the zodiac. They’re always wondering whether they’ve done enough or if everything is about to come crashing down. That sense of dread is present on the chorus of Swift’s first collaboration with Jack Antonoff, as she questioned whether she and a love interest were “out of the woods” and “in the clear yet,” or if there was still danger ahead.

Practical and analytical, Virgos know exactly what could go wrong at any given moment. While this keeps them safe some of the time, it’s also self-sabotage, as more often than not the “monsters” turn out “to be just trees.”

Libra: ‘Style’

Libras are ruled by Venus, the planet of love and beauty. They are effortlessly on trend thanks to their “classic” sensibilities, yet care deeply about their role in society and how they are perceived. Nothing will make a Libra fall in love faster than the notion that they’re part of a power couple that never goes “out of style.” They’ll relish the romance of a James Dean-type picking them up in a car with “no headlights” at “midnight.”

Libras have a reputation for being people pleasers, so they might even forgive someone being “out and about with some other girl,” especially if it helps build the lore of their “good girl” and bad boy love story.

Scorpio: ‘Bad Blood’

Scorpios are loyal until someone crosses them, which is why they’re represented by scorpions, an animal that strikes when threatened. “Mad love” turns into “bad blood” when a Scorpio feels betrayed, and if you thought “time can heal,” think again. These intense water signs don’t forgive easily.

If an apology seems like it’s “for show” or isn’t sincere enough to fit the crime, a Scorpio will remind you that “band-aids don’t fix bullet holes” and wait for karma to deal with you.

Sagittarius: ‘New Romantics’

Commitment isn’t exactly Sagittarius’ strong suit, which makes this anthem of singledom the soundtrack to their adventurous lives. These fire signs prioritize their own personal growth above all else, and are “far too busy dancing to get knocked off [their] feet.” They’re also blunt, and will have no problem telling people in relationships that they’re boring because “the best people in life are free.”

Sagittariuses are also known as the philosophers of the zodiac. Curious and open-minded, they are collectors of experiences who believe that “life is just a classroom.”

Capricorn: ‘Welcome to New York’

Capricorns are go-getters, and they want to be at the center of the action. Nobody romanticizes a city that never sleeps like these ambitious and hard-working earth signs, who feel at home in a place filled with people who all “wanted something more.” Capricorns strive for greatness and have no interest in taking the easy route to achieve it. They think anything worth having should “keep you guessing” and drive “you crazy.”

Capricorns are also good at compartmentalizing, which means they have no problem taking their “broken hearts” and putting “them in a drawer.”

Aquarius: ‘I Know Places’

Aloof and enigmatic Aquarians value their privacy. Unlike a Libra or a Leo, the last thing they want to do when they’re in love is put on a show. They won’t know it’s real unless you want to go to places you “won’t be found” together. And trust Us, these eccentric air signs always know a hole in the wall spot that no one else has heard of.

Aquarians aren’t afraid to go against the grain, which means they often have an us against the world mentality. Even if people “take their shots,” their nonconformist confidence keeps them feeling “bulletproof.”

Pisces: ‘I Wish You Would’

Unlike a Scorpio or a Taurus, empathetic Pisces give their loved ones a lot of room to make mistakes and (hopefully) grow from them. They’re sentimental, and they won’t stop caring about someone even if it’s been two years since they last spoke. Or twenty. They still “wish you would” pick up the phone and call them or just show up at their door.

Even if you think these at-times moody water signs are holding a grudge, they probably “miss you too much to be mad anymore” and will “never forget you as long as [they] live.”
