Taylor Swift’s Music Videos Are Now All Available to Watch on Spotify, From ‘Tim McGraw’ to ‘Opalite’

Taylor Swift has made all of her official music videos available to watch on Spotify, spanning her first video "Tim McGraw" from 2006 to her latest ones for the album "The Life of a Showgirl." The streaming service confirmed this on September 16 for premium subscribers, allowing users to watch videos on both app and desktop web browsers as well as TVs. Fans can toggle between audio and video modes on these videos.

Swift holds a total of 58 music video records, a number Spotify has compiled into a playlist for fans. Among these, five videos have won Video of the Year at the VMAs, including "Bad Blood," "You Need to Calm Down," "All Too Well: The Short Film," "Anti-Hero," and "Fortnight" featuring Post Malone. Swift, a 14-time Grammy winner, also boasts the most wins in this category for any artist.

The most recent videos, not counting the "I Knew It, I Knew You" Toy Story 5 montage, are for Billboard Hot 100 top-charting singles "The Fate of Ophelia" and "Opalite." The latter has been on Spotify since its February release, premiered jointly on the platform and Apple Music.

Interestingly, YouTube views for Swift's music videos ceased contributing to Billboard chart placements less than a month ago. This occurred after YouTube announced in December they would no longer submit data to Billboard due to their decision to favor paid/subscription streams over ad-supported streams. Swift's 58 music videos are now accessible on Spotify for fans to enjoy.
