jjmed59 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 1989 sweetie… for starters, this era isnt gonna last over 2 years unlike 1989. And thats bc other than anti hero, there are no bonafide hits thatll carry it. tik tok will move on to catchier and boppier stuff within a few months.

JonginBey Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 1989, because she gave that era time to marinate in the spotlight. The Midnights era won’t have longevity because she’s going to move on to the next re-recording next year most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raphy23 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I prefer Midnights. So I hope it ends up bigger in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raphy23 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Midnights already has 10 top 10 singles. Something 1989 wasn’t able to achieve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greento Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Taylor herself feels bigger now than she ever has been, but album wise 1989 will probably be bigger than Midnights, and it will likely remain her peak with singles longevity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitnessOblivia Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 1989 obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlaredoperez Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 No. It will be frontloaded & forgotten in months. It doesn't have the hits nor the magic 1989 had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddisier Posted October 29, 2022 Author Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) Let’s assume Anti Hero is a BS/SIO sized smash. If there’s another huge smash from Midnights and the tour gross beats 1989 (which is highly likely), it will be very close. So the key right now is to push a post-album release single to smash level. Super hard to do in a streaming era though. Edited October 29, 2022 by freddisier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winged Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Midnights will be remembered until end of this year because of its sales… and that’s it 1989 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
