Also whew y'all the discourse was intolerable today 

What discourse? Isn't every day like that on this pink hell? They somehow found a way to be even worse?

With that said, I wouldn't mind. As long as she still comes out on top as the most streamed artist of the year (this is almost a given lol), some more competition is more than welcome at this point. It was getting stale!

I agree that some competition is a good thing but i would love to see this competition come from another pop girl for a change, if not for Taylor it's always men who are at the top

Yeah i see what you mean 

 

Also, isn't it funny how the previous feelings and vibes Billboard list of "Greatest Pop Stars" was teased for MONTHS with Beyonce somehow #1 at the end but this new list with Taylor at #1 just got randomly dropped on a Wednesday with no fanfare whatsoever? Couldn't they make it any more obvious?

TTPD already above reputation after 8 months

 

Lover coming for the top 10

folklore inevitably rising slowly but steadily on this list for years to come, the Rumours of this century?

 

1989 not overtaking Fearless since this list was last updated all the way back in 2015? That's really suprising!

ddd the Roc Nation checks cleared

I don't know how to explain how impressive this song is to me. I feel like it's one of the most representative song on TTPD. Both in terms of subject, but also the aspect of taking from the poetry imagery to write a song. And of course it sounds heavenly.

I need the all time list update cause if 1989 is that far above The Fame then there's a good chance it's in the top 10 OAT. I need to know if it's cleared JLP to become the third biggest female album OAT 

 

Anyway, yes Midnights, yes top 30 

 

If things continue for Lover at the current rate, it should be in the top 10 relatively shortly, since the only things in the way are a Christmas album that only charts for a few months a year, a Post album that's been largely replaced by his compilation, Divide which has also been replaced by the tour compilation, and then The Fame, which is charting 80-100 places below Lover in a given week 

 

All those weeks at #1 really paid off for TTPD, and the smashery will only continue 

 

Poor reputation, down at the bottom with the re-recordings and the discography flops, not even top 100 of the century

Going back to ttpd after a while 

Yup yup, it's still her best album. 

The emotional devastation I feel while listening to So Long, London, Guilty As Sin, Loml, The Black Dog, How Did It End, The Prophecy, Peter... 

I don't know if she'll ever be capable of making a sadder album 

Spoiler

The divorce album is the only thing that can top it tbh

TAYLOR DOMINATION AGAIN FOR 2025 BRACE FOR IMPACT

[wastedpotential]

Let me circle back to having another Fearless TV breakdown since some here are clearly not putting in the effort it deserves. 

 

I know everyone (deservedly) loses their **** over the outro here but I would like to drop a pin at 2:31 and politely request that everyone stop what they're doing and just go sit with that bridge. It's the way I know with absolute certainty that Taylor is one of the greatest and most talented songwriters of all time, because what do you mean she was wasting melodies this strong and catchy on the bridge of a bonus track, where the original version barely cleared 15M streams in a decade and the re-recording, though an improvement on that figure, doesn't even make the list of her 250 most streamed songs and gets fewer streams every day than the audience figure of the least-attended Eras show 

 

The amount of melodic talent in the nail of her right pinky as she gamed out the melodies on Fearless is greater than that can be found in basically anyone else working in music. And what's even more astonishing is that this glorious moment isn't even unique. Of the 26 hymns at play, there is only one that I would consider to be short of immaculate perfection (which is why You Are Offkey (feat. Maren Noteless) got a zero from me in the discography rate ddd). It's truly back to back to back to back to back perfection. 

 

WHO IS DOING THIS? WHO IS MAKING SONGS LIKE THIS TODAY, AND THEN STICKING THEM ON FLOP DELUXE VERSIONS OR AT THE BOTTOM OF A 26 TRACK ALBUM OR ON THE SOUNDTRACK OF GODAWFUL ROMCOMS? IT'S VILLAINOUS. 

 

 

The way She knew this would be buried at the bottom of Sermons Now so She made sure it had a moment and got the chance to shine 

[wastedpotential]

I just... I feel so angry at the thought of how many people here and on Twitter, and really across the internet, just brush this off as some sort of early-stage, okay album that She made on her way to greatness when she could've literally retired after dropping Fearless and rested on those laurels for another 30 years. It's been overshadowed time and time again by other excellent albums (which get disproportionate amounts of praise), despite being damn near literal perfection from start to finish. It's the most awarded country album of all time, won AOTY years before that was a thing that pop girls could do and is diamond certified with multiple diamond-eligible singles. GIVE IT THE RESPECT IT DESERVES. Some of you (you know who you are ) treat this hymnal right, but the rest of y'all are condemned to hell. 

 

I'm actually really getting riled up can y'all PLEASE start streaming this album so my blood pressure can fall?

It's those damn vault tracks. Lowkey brought the Fearless average down.

 

 

But Fearless original tracklist is damn near skipless. She does deserve better.

Right because if it didn't have the vault tracks Fearless would be #2 for me (it's #3 on my ranking right now)

Oh speak on it... 

14 year old me was obsessed with The Other Side Of The Door. I always had immaculate taste even as a tween. That chorus, the bridge into the last chorus, the outro... her mature vocals really elevated this masterpiece to higher heavens.

Taylor's problem is that she's too successful for her own good. Any artist who'd have one alum as successful as Fearless or even debut or speak Now, would be considered a legend by many, but because she keeps outdoing her own success over and over again, people keep down playing it. Her career will be seen as next levels of legendary once the dust settles.
