Love Story + YBWM We Are Never + Trouble Shake it Off + Blank Space Anti-Hero + Cruel Summer The last combo is actually my favorite Not you erasing IDWLF from map. If Shape of you wasn’t released along with it, it would’ve gone #1 everywhere.
IBeMe Posted October 2, 2023 Posted October 2, 2023 You guys need to step your kitties up in this base thread. I want to wake up everyday finding 10 new pages. Not one and a half. What is this? Get your word count in and TYPE!

The new posting limits (which I thought ATRL had left in the past ) have us all stuck in jail for like 2 minutes unable to respond to anything 2

It was a smash, but it’s also a soundtrack song, a collab, n/a on the Eras Tour setlist, low in daily streams and thus not a true Taylor classic

Feel like she wanted to have her own Perfect. It sounds much better on piano or guitar imo. And same, I cant really recall the last time I willingly played it 1

Ugh perfect is such a great song. I really want Taylor to have one smash ballad like that. 1
State of Grace. Posted October 2, 2023 Posted October 2, 2023 Love Story + YBWM > Shake it Off + Blank Space (BS doing the HEAVY lifting here) >= Anti-Hero + Cruel Summer > We Are Never + Trouble (one of her best pop songs but the other one drags the combo down) 2 1

I see the appeal but I think Taylor's version of Perfect is Love Story, and it's x10000 better. Lover became a mini wedding classic too so theres that dd 1

4Real Posted October 2, 2023 Posted October 2, 2023 Hating flawless songs like SIO and WANEGOD is NOT a personality trait
liam13 Posted October 2, 2023 Posted October 2, 2023 i thought theres more swifties here but our base is virtually a cemetery where folks casually drop by to express thoughts and then leave until the next occasion how come it has less pages than g*g* and b*ys base thread 1
By the Water Posted October 2, 2023 Posted October 2, 2023 Lover (song) is a perfect example of songs doing better in different contexts, same with cardigan. Barely peaked at #10 in 2019 but is about to reach 1B while still gaining 1.5M daily even with the remix stealing over 200k daily from it. That's why I doubt CS would've been this big in 2020 5
Arrows Posted October 2, 2023 Posted October 2, 2023 If Cruel Summer survives Christmas I can see it sticking next summer too, especially globally
