Now they’re not sure what the last week will be like Crazy to think the only promo she planned was those MMWM and those track explanations…
GabeInPolaroids Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Imagine if Taylor’s team had planned something different and exciting? Like, I remember that for Chained to the Rhythm Katy put disco balls in a lot of places, imagine how cool would it be something like that? Simple but cool.
By the Water Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Red TV predictions started at 450k and increased with every update so I wouldn't be so sure that she can massively overperform HDD's initial numbers

I still don’t think we should EXPECT it, but I think we should be prepared in the event that it’s possible.

I meant can't overperform HDD can be very hit or miss with pure sales, which is probably why they didn't give an early prediction for 30
TheArgonaut Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Reputa had more than 400k pre-orders one week before the album. I couldn’t find anything for Lover though.
TheArgonaut Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Also Lover was predicted to sell 600-750k on initial predictions.

People would go out and buy more retail copies first week than now though. Preorders are the bulk of physical first week sales with big artists now since hardly anyone typically goes to buy an album in stores. Taylor is just lucky to have the big fanbase she does that WILL ago to Target for the deluxe version release.

The week of the album some songs will be pushed on Spotify, and there are 2 music videos filmed but we’re not sure if we’re getting both in one week or one at a time. No information on which song will get radio push.
Redstreak Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Can you imagine if Taylor gives us her Dreams
By the Water Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 HDD's predictions for folklore: 650k+ -> 700k+ -> 725-750k -> 822k -> 844k final numbers: 846k HDD's predictions for Red TV: 450-500k -> 475-525k -> 570k -> 596k final numbers: 605k
State of Grace. Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 All this needs to do is outdebut Loser...which is all but confirmed at this point

I know, I just think that the preorder number for MIDnights might give us a little insight on the first week sales. I see her selling 250k pure copies on release week and 220k SPS units. So around the same debut numbers as Lover. If she pass that, then for me it would be an overperformance. 850-870k units is maybe a given right now.

Sometimes they actually post a special article the day of release or maybe even the day before, but usually their first prediction is Saturday morning/afternoon when they’ve got the first day tracking numbers for sales and streaming.

Right around Lover & folklore. 900K is a stretch but possible. 1M is almost crazy but I still think it’s technically attainable. But I’m keeping my expectations grounded under 900K.
