- Taylor Swift’s single “The Fate of Ophelia” debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
- The song is Swift’s 13th chart-topper, joining the ranks of hits like “Blank Space” and “Anti-Hero.”
- All of Swift’s No. 1 songs are listed below in chronological order of their peak dates.
Since releasing her first No. 1 album in 2008, Taylor Swift has enjoyed a historic run on the charts, topping the Billboard 200 and Billboard Hot 100 over a dozen times each.
Swift’s collection of No. 1 hits includes both radio-friendly pop singles and understated gems pushed to the top of the chart by passionate fans. Most recently, “The Fate of Ophelia” joined the ranks while breaking a record for the most streams in a single week on Spotify.
All 13 are listed below in chronological order of their peak dates.
1. “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”

Despite writing ubiquitous hits like “You Belong With Me” and “Love Story” earlier in her career (which peaked at No. 2 and No. 4, respectively), “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” was Swift’s first-ever song to top the Hot 100.
The country-pop crossover smash was released as the lead single from Swift’s fourth album, “Red.” It rose from No. 72 to No. 1 in its second week of tracking and remained atop the chart for three weeks.
2. “Shake It Off”

“Shake It Off” was released as the lead single from Swift’s fifth album, “1989.” It became her first song to debut at No. 1 and remained atop the chart for four weeks.
3. “Blank Space”

“Blank Space,” the second single from “1989,” debuted at No. 18 on the Hot 100.
It rose to No. 13 before soaring to No. 1 in its third week — dethroning “Shake It Off” and making Swift the first woman in history to replace herself in the chart’s top spot.
“Blank Space” went on to become one of Swift’s biggest hits, reigning atop the chart for seven weeks.
4. “Bad Blood” featuring Kendrick Lamar

On May 17, 2015, a remix of “Bad Blood” featuring Kendrick Lamar was released as the fourth single from “1989.”
It rose from No. 53 to the chart’s top spot after the music video premiered at the 2015 Billboard Music Awards and broke the Vevo record for most views in 24 hours.
5. “Look What You Made Me Do”

Despite mixed reactions from critics, Swift’s lead single for “Reputation” rose to No. 1 after its first full week of tracking, breaking the weekly streaming record for a song by a woman.
Once again, Swift’s music video broke the record for most views within 24 hours, racking up 43.2 million views in its first day.
“Look What You Made Me Do” remained atop the chart for three weeks.
6. “Cardigan”

Swift announced the arrival of her eighth album, “Folklore,” just one day in advance. The second track, “Cardigan,” was released at the same time as the album and promoted with a whimsical music video.
“Folklore” debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 while “Cardigan” simultaneously debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100, making Swift the first artist in history to open atop both charts in the same week.
7. “Willow”

Just five months after “Folklore,” Swift repeated her pandemic-era strategy and surprise-released her ninth album, “Evermore,” alongside its lead single.
Again, “Evermore” debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 while “Willow” simultaneously debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100.
8. “All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor’s Version) (From the Vault)”

“Red (Taylor’s Version)” was the second rerecorded album Swift released. It was accompanied by the long-awaited extended version of “All Too Well,” a fan-favorite track from the original album.
“All Too Well (10 Minute Version)” was promoted with a self-directed short film and plenty of theories about the song’s most likely muse.
It debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100, becoming the longest song in history to top the chart. (The record was previously held by Don McLean’s “American Pie (Parts I & II)” at 8 minutes and 37 seconds.)
9. “Anti-Hero”

“Anti-Hero” was released alongside Swift’s 10th album, “Midnights,” and promoted as the lead single.
It quickly became Swift’s biggest hit ever, reigning atop the Hot 100 for eight weeks and surpassing “Blank Space” as her longest-running No. 1 song.
The same week that “Anti-Hero” debuted at No. 1, Swift became the first and only artist in history to occupy the entire top 10 on the Hot 100. The hit single was flanked by “Lavender Haze” (No. 2), “Maroon” (No. 3), “Snow on the Beach” (No. 4), “Midnight Rain” (No. 5), “Bejeweled” (No. 6), “Question…?” (No. 7), “You’re On Your Own, Kid” (No. 8), “Karma” (No. 9), and “Vigilante Shit” (No. 10).
10. “Cruel Summer”

“Cruel Summer” was originally released as the second track on Swift’s 2019 album “Lover.”
Although it was identified early as a fan favorite, the song was never promoted as a single and debuted modestly at No. 29 on the Hot 100.
Four years later, Swift transformed “Cruel Summer” into a showstopping spectacle on the Eras Tour. Streams of the song began to surge, and it reigned atop Billboard’s Pop Airplay chart for two months. Swift’s label sent the song to pop radio in June 2023.
Finally, following the release of “The Cruelest Summer” EP — which includes a live version of the song and a remix by LP Giobbi — the song reached No. 1 on the Hot 100, marking Swift’s milestone 10th chart-topper. It later returned to the top spot, notching four weeks total.
11. “Is It Over Now?”

“Is It Over Now?” was released as the final vault track on “1989 (Taylor’s Version),” a rerecording of her beloved fifth album.
Although it wasn’t initially slated as a single, its enthusiastic reception from fans pushed Swift’s team to serve the song to pop radio.
“Is It Over Now?” debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100, dethroning “Cruel Summer.” Swift remains the only woman in history to replace herself in the top spot, a feat she’s now achieved twice.
12. “Fortnight” featuring Post Malone

“Fortnight,” a duet with Post Malone, was released alongside “The Tortured Poets Department” and promoted as the album’s lead single.
The song debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100 while “Poets” simultaneously debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
For the second time in her career, Swift managed to occupy the entire top 10 of the Hot 100. In fact, the top 14 positions on the chart were occupied by “Poets” tracks, including “Down Bad” (No. 2) and “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” (No. 3), all the way through to “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” (No. 14).
“Fortnight” returned to No. 1 on the Hot 100 for a second consecutive week.
13. “The Fate of Ophelia”

“The Fate of Ophelia” was released alongside “The Life of a Showgirl” and promoted as the album’s lead single.
The Shakespeare-inspired pop song debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100 while “Showgirl” simultaneously debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, breaking a record for the biggest sales week of all time.
All 12 tracks on “Showgirl” debuted within the Hot 100’s top 12 spots, making Swift the first and only artist to dominate the chart’s top 10 on three separate occasions.
Swift is now tied with Michael Jackson and Drake for the fifth-most No. 1 hits in history.
