Blade Runner Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 Just mindblowing. Literally no competition at all. She will never have a flop era. At least until she's really, really old.

OTHs are in shambles for the thousandth time
Nova_23 Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 I think she’ll probably end up around 1.4-1.5M in the end. 1.6M seems like a stretch but hopefully i’m wrong!

Not to mention its lead single didn’t have a proper physical/retail release in hopes of drawing attention to the album instead. Not too much, it WAS the biggest female debut for a whole 15 years, it was definitely impressive. Taylor couldn't reach it until now despite her getting many YEC #1 albums.
crymelanie Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 She ended y'all faves and yall BETTER WHINE
Planet Mars Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 Taylor is basically competing with herself at this point, and winning too
slw84 Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 (edited) Wow bethenney wow...she's devouring Edited October 24, 2022 by slw84
Casually Cruel Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 2022 and we're still dealing with the narrative her fanbase are majority teenagers and theres no way adults are buying the albums? Shes 16 years into her career do you think her fans hit their early 20s and drop of the face of the earth? Of course she's gonna have fans who are now in their 30s buying albums not to mention the amount of hype around this release has built this perfect storm around her career where non fans are curious as to what shes releasing so they're checking it out. Same thing happened with 1989 the only difference is she didn't put any music out beforehand. Anyways good for her reaching this kind of success again in her career

americanlife Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 I can't believe she may beat her own highest first week sales from a 2014 album in 2022, and beat that record by 200-400k, AND she'll surpass OIDIA if she surpasses 1.319M copies, AND she would double 30's first week if she surpasses 1.678M she just won't stop

If I remember right. 1989 and RED were at around 900k and 800k in their first three days and they both sold 400k over the last four days. So 1.6m does not seem completely unreasonable. But I agree. I am predicting a number closer to 1.4-1.5....that said, I was also predicting 1m-1.1m last week so I should never underestimate taylor.
Great808 Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 The higher the numbers the higher the second week drop

Ms. Togekiss Posted October 24, 2022 Posted October 24, 2022 Yeah this is gonna go just above 1.4M. Sales are already plateauing…. Expecting 1M pure sales and 400k SEA

This is ridiculous. She's got a huge fanbase. Yes, she'll still appeal to teenagers, which is great! But I'm born in 2000, and grew up with Taylor throughout my teens. I'm now 22 & Taylor is still a huge part of my life in my twenties, and I'm a young 'adult' that buys her albums.
