Who said it wasn't organic? I specifically said it is organic but its road to #1 is inorganic. Maybe take your jump-down-anyone-who-disagrees-with-me glasses off and read with caution. 

Embarrasing 

[oceans]

y'all need to be serious...

Come on Cirque Du Soleil! 

An absolute parody 

The absolute parody is you having the word 'head' in your username but not using it physically 

 

I've been saying it all along, I was impressed by the organic chart run from CS but think her #1 is inorganic. It's not that deep. 

[Headlock]

Yes she released a remix and a live version, @JaXXXon found shaking screaming crying throwing up

9 posts in less than an hour, yeah it's definitely not that deep

So instead of letting this single smash organically, her fanbase will be happier with inorganic chart manipulations with that cheap discount and a new version of the same song giving Willow teas after ya'll specifically said Taylor isn't obsessed with charts? 

 

This song had a very impressive chart run, is more popular than whatever Taylor has released since 2014 and your greed ruined that just because you and her couldn't handle that a #2 could be more impressive than a desperate #1 in the long run. 

 

My respect for Taylor started growing with her not giving a **** but oh well. I liked the song either way and a #1 won't change that. In Taylor's discography, however, she'll now have three singles that went to #1 based off new versions and discounts. Seriously, you Swifties don't ever try to come for any other artist who does this.

A single version for a fifth single? Gurl. This is probably a calculated move on her and her team's part. But that $0.69 discount is inorganic because it wasn't selling as much at full price. 

 

46 minutes ago, JaXXXon said:

Yeah but most songs are dragged by doing these things. I'm just saying the song didn't need a #1. It was a Top 5 smash and now it's gonna have that discount next to it, something this particular song didn't need. Its chart run is a bit tainted by it. 

 

32 minutes ago, JaXXXon said:

If every song was $0.69 then it would be down to scratch again since the difference would be minimal. She may have been #1 but she's predicted to go #1 now because of the discounts. Her being #1 before didn't have that big of an effect.

I guess you're right. I just hate it when songs are #1 not entirely based on popularity but because of discounts and tactics. It's nothing new but still just... like... just let things play out organically.

Um yeah. They're inorganic #1s, not inorganic overall.

The way this entire reply pretty much sums up why people hate the Swifties  

 

Didn't the Swifties come for others who've done these types of calculated discounts in the past? Practice what you preach. 

 

I like Cruel Summer btw.

The embarrassing meltdown from that Gaga stan the lack of self awareness when bringing up discounts is astounding 

[LastKiss]

She said Lover is getting a #1 you *******!

She was gaining on more than Drake on Spotify yesterday and radio is rising more than initially predicted. She might be #1 even without the extra points from the discount, so no, she's not relying on them or going #1 because of them.

I already mentioned that others have done it (Gaga as well, yes) and got lashings for it by the Swifties as well, so you KOMH lack the self-awareness.

The difference being, you will never find Taylor slashing the price of a full length album to a measly 99 cents and then immediately setting records for being the first artist to have two albums in the top five list of all-time biggest second-week percentage drops in Nielsen history.

A solo #1 that ended up charting for 20 weeks on Billboard and is outstreaming Gaga's last album in its entirety (900k vs 585k). Thank you for the fabulous reminder.  

 

Now what records did Ms. Germanotta break with TTH fixture Stupid Love? 

 

OT: The audience DEMANDS another version for next week!

I'm not a dupe though and the mods can see that hopefully 

 

Some of you Swifties are too sensitive about her to the point where nothing can be said even when it's from someone who likes her song when it isn't a 100% Taylor is a goddess narrative. 

[family.guy123]

Haven’t listened to the live version yet. Does she include the bum note from the trailer again?

Willow is a flop lol. Just because it's getting streams from a well-streamed album doesn't mean it wasn't a flop single. As for Stupid Love, it was a disliked song upon arrival which is why it got a Top 5 debut and then plummeted. Willow would've performed the same without its discounts (Top 5 debut, then plummet).
