I don't get why the Rep stans never stop at "Rep is better", but always have to try to prove that Rep is somehow performing better than her other pure pop albums. It used to be with Lover, dragging it for having no #1 singles. Since 2023 it's been pretty clear that Lover is blowing Rep out of the water. Now y'all are trying to argue with Midnights instead, and it still isn't landing or becoming true. It's perfectly fine to think Rep is her best pop album. I don't share this opinion but I can see why it would be very endearing. But pack it up with the need to show Rep is more successful than it really is (which is already a ******* lot), it's not surpassing Lover/Midnights, and Rep TV is not touching 1989 TV. The point is that midnights was released at her commercial peak and no one is saying that reputation is bigger but a 2017 album outdoing a 2022 album in multiple platforms is definitely impressive. Don't Blame Me is literally outstreaming multiple singles from Midnights despite lacking playlist / radio exposure. And actually reputation doesn't really benefit from the hype. I'm currently NOT playing it on Spotify cuz I don't want to give any coin to whoever owns that album now and I am pretty sure many religious swifties do the same. So yes it could be doing like 1m more daily streams if she owned that album.

I wonder why she didn't send Midnights deluxe for AOTY. And yes it's possible to send the deluxe albums for Grammy's. This decision is confusing me as well. 3AM has 2 great highlights (TGW and WCS) that elevate the album a loooot
dobrevv Posted January 28 Posted January 28 (edited) wouldnt surprise me if she only wins 1 award and they use her for ratings Edited January 28 by dobrevv
Cleanromantic Posted January 28 Posted January 28 I'll be happy with Best Pop Vocal Album and SOTY . Honestly, if I had to chose, I'll take Best Pop Vocal Album. Taylor is known as the albums artist and she's always rewarded for her entire body of work, so it'll be a nice continuation of that narrative
Feanor Posted January 28 Posted January 28 I think "Karma Remix" is just too bad of a remix for it to win Pop Duo/Group, even when it's the only hit nominated. So I think Taylor's only win will be Pop Vocal Album and even there I can envision an Olivia upset win, cause she campaign a lot for it.
By the Water Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Aaron def deserved his flowers for TGW, HI and WCS. Maybe they just thought the album is more cohesive with just the standard version idk I just hope she wins one of the big categories. Idc about pop solo, pop duo or bpva. I don't even necessarily care about AOTY or SOTY, just give her one of the big ones

Hi, this is probably the boldest way I could introduce myself, but I liked this thought and wanted to chime in and ask if anyone has previously taken Taylor’s performance on H100 and B200 each year (either combined or separate) and determined what her strongest and weakest years would be based on the multipliers that get assigned each decade? As a side note: Hi nice to meet everyone — I’ve been around this forum for a few years infrequently popping in to see what’s going on in pop music and as a filtered place to catch up on all of the Taylor related activity that goes on. Ive seen enough people start their introduction by sharing their favorite album/songs, so I figure that’s something I can share too, but I’ll do a slight twist to it — a few months ago I sat down and figured out my favorite song from each album ahead of the eras tour, feel free to judge, I enjoy the banter.

LostInStereo100 Posted January 28 Posted January 28 The fact that cruel summer WILL have more streams in 2024 than 2023 is terrifying. The song is immortal. It’s already over 100 million in 2024 and we still in the first month, and it only gained like 800 million all last year In total I think. We still have tour and actual summer boosts coming too 1

Hi! Welcome! I have no idea what her biggest and weakest year on the BB200 and H100 would be. My guesses are: - biggest BB200: 2023 (for this one, I have no doubts actually) - weakest BB200: probably 2016 - biggest H100: 2015 or 2023 - weakest H100: 2011 or 2016 again 7 minutes ago, Flames2Embers said: Ive seen enough people start their introduction by sharing their favorite album/songs, so I figure that’s something I can share too, but I’ll do a slight twist to it — a few months ago I sat down and figured out my favorite song from each album ahead of the eras tour, feel free to judge, I enjoy the banter.

So it actually accumulated around 1.1-1.2B streams in 2023. But yeah there's a possibility that it will get even more in 2024. Edited January 28 by Klein 1
Cleanromantic Posted January 28 Posted January 28 Cruel Summer should be retitled Cruel Year or Cruel Decade And she really did that when she wrote the Topline (I think her writing toplines to already composed music is harder than her writing and composing from scratch IMO ) Fever dream high in the quiet of the night, you know that I caught it (such a smart lyric and infectious melody, no wonder people can't get enough of it) 1
Cleanromantic Posted January 28 Posted January 28 I love Untouchable (especially the tv ) but I wouldn't say I like it being considered the best song on Fearless cause she didn't write it. I know she made it sound nothing like the original but still, the auteure compositrice interprète of our generation deserves to have another song highlighted from her breakthrough country classic album

Also, hi! Welcome! You have impeccable taste, especially the Innocent, Treasureous, Praying With Our Hands Clasped, and Peace stanning.
