Travis Kelce is revealing his favorite Taylor Swift tracks!

Speaking on the latest episode of the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast, released June 25, Kelce, 34, ranked his top three songs by his pop star girlfriend, also 34.

"I really started listening to Taylor’s music when she came out with 1989,” the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said. “Like I knew who she was before that, we were the same age, so through high school and everything I knew who Taylor was and she was like getting her career started.”

He added, “But I think 1989 was where it really started to go crazy.” 

“So I’m gonna say ‘Black Space’ because that was like the first one, so I'll put that at number one,” Kelce said. "It's a banger."

“I think I’ll go number two ‘Cruel Summer,' " he continued. "'Cruel Summer’ is like one of the ones she opens with at her show."

He went on to say that it’s “f---ing electric” when Swift comes out on stage during her Eras Tour and “goes into an absolute banger like that.” "I was fired up when that happened at the first show I was ever at," he added.

Speaking about his third song pick, Kelce continued, “I’ll say, ‘So High School.’ It’s got a little bit of a sentimental meaning, I guess.”

Responding to the suggestion that he makes an appearance in the song, the athlete replied, “I think so, I think so, you know what I'm saying."

"You know to ball, I know Aristotle," Kelce added with a smile, referencing the lyrics in the song which are believed to be about him, before taking a sip of his drink.

He then pretended to touch up Swift’s face with powder as fans screamed from the audience.

Elsewhere during his appearance on the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast, Kelce revealed that he started to fall for Swift when he saw how down-to-earth she was.

 "She's very self-aware,” he said. “And I think that's why I really started to really fall for her, was how genuine she is around friends [and] family. It can get crazy for somebody with that much attention ... and she just keeps it so chill and so cool."
