What do Bruce Springsteen, Dolly Parton, Elton John, and Paul Simon all have in common? They were actually able to answer Stephen Colbert's very simple question asking their five favorite songs they've written of their own. Taylor Swift could not. She seemed unprepared on The Late Show last night and tried to do a "they're all my children special in their own way" type of thing which might be the least media-trained moment she's ever been caught in. But unlike a lot of massive pop stars like Rihanna, say, Swift is not an actress or a fashion mogul. Her entire cottage industry is her songs. And she's not even out of touch with her catalog considering she has re-recorded most of it fairly recently! So this one's gonna go in the "kinda weird" column.

She eventually names the ten-minute version of "All Too Well" to rapturous applause from the studio audience and tearing-up Swifties the world over silently pumping their fists, and she says Folklore's "Mirrorball" would be somewhere in there. But beyond stating she's "obsessed" with her current commercial juggernaut/critical flop The Life of a Showgirl, that's all we get. "I'm gonna need a little time to get back to you on all the five," she tells Stephen, to which he responds that she's "got all the time in the world between now and May," referencing when the network will be unexpectedly (and insidiously) pulling the plug on his late-night tenure. Taylor, listen: "Dear John," "Holy Ground," "The Story of Us," "All You Had to Do Was Stay," "Mastermind." Not that hard, was it? Watch the anticlimactic interview clips below.
