[RAMROD 110,946]

Taylor Swift may be headed for a Songwriters Hall of Fame record. Swift, who received the Hal David Starlight Award from the SHOF in 2010, is nominated for full membership in the organization. She would be the first person to graduate from the Starlight Award (an award for a songwriter who shows promise, which dates to 2004) to full membership status.

A songwriter with a notable catalog of songs qualifies for SHOF induction 20 years after the first commercial release of a song. Swift’s first single, “Tim McGraw,” was released in June 2006. The SHOF Induction and Awards gala is set for June 11, 2026, so she just made it.

As always, the list of nominees is divided into non-performing and performing songwriters. Of the 14 non-performing songwriters or songwriting teams on the ballot, the top three will be inducted. Likewise, of the 13 performing songwriters or songwriting teams, the top three will be inducted.

The list of nominees includes several people who have won Grammys for song of the year – Terry Britten and Graham Lyle (“What’s Love Got to Do With It”); Kenny Loggins (“What a Fool Believes,” a co-write with Michael McDonald); and Christopher “Tricky” Stewart (“Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It),” a co-write with Beyoncé, Terius “The-Dream” Nash and Thaddis Harrell).

The Songwriters Hall of Fame was established in 1969. Eligible voting members will have until midnight ET on Dec. 4 to turn in their ballots. The 2026 inductees will be announced in early 2026.

They are nominated under Performing Songwriters category, and songs nominated:

Taylor Swift – “All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor’s Version)” * “Blank Space” * “Anti-Hero” * “Love Story” * “The Last Great American Dynasty”

Alecia B. Moore p/k/a P!nk – “Glitter in the Air” * “Just Like a Pill” * “Raise Your Glass” * “So What” * “What About Us”

Taylor Swift – “Love Story”

I'm no swiftie... but when this song comes on, I NEVER turn it off

You were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
& my daddy said 'stay away from Juliet'
