Yup. Imagine polluting a thread about a chart of Spotify streams that your fave isn’t even on, cus your fave hasn’t mattered when Spotify became a thing. that’s how insecure and bitter certain people are.

Maroonx Posted February 19 Posted February 19 (edited) lol I kept seeing a certain member in EVERY thread related to Taylor Swift trying to discredit her achievements. How very Kanye of this person. Kinda sad and pathetic rly, if you dislike the girl, you should avoid her threads x baiii bish Edited February 19 by Maroonx 4
hawx23 Posted February 19 Posted February 19 Literally no one would even think about comparing Gaga’s vs Taylor’s chart runs today. Same kind of thing as asking why can’t Taylor have a single Best Original Song Oscar nomination when Gaga has 4. They can be good at different things and that’s fine.

Do you think big hits are the reason #2 is there? Some of you just do not understand the power of a strong discography. 2

JorgeM Posted February 19 Posted February 19 20 hours ago, BrandNewBrandon said: Taylor has released 149 songs (not counting remixes and live versions) since Rihanna and Gaga last released a studio album and 100+ since Ariana, Billie and Adele have released any album. Obviously all of the aferomentioned would've had higher streams with successful new releases and especially if there were multiple new albums in that same time span and even though they maybe wouldn't have reached Taylor's numbers, the gap wouldn't have been so big. But Taylor doesn’t need 149 songs, she is #1 counting just her top 10 songs 2

BrandNewBrandon Posted February 19 Posted February 19 (edited) 19 hours ago, Kasix said: Well good thing the people Taylor compares with right now are MJ, who had compete trackings; not Gaga or Britney. So it’s none of your concern. Lady Gaga's debut era is the second best-selling after Adele in the 21st Century so regardless how you spin it, Gaga still had the bigger peak: And she has three Diamond singles from that era alone, more than Taylor during her peak. You can rabble on about someone releasing three new albums in a calender year and claim it's a bigger peak when none of her individual eras have achieved what the biggest Gaga era has. You lost this discussion like every Taylor stan does regarding peaks. Edited February 19 by BrandNewBrandon 1 5

Spoiler Too freakin bad for your pathetic attempt: Taylor sold 43 million albums worldwide in last year ALONE, meaning one year from Taylor is better selling the whatever Gaga album was able to rack up in 15 years. not to mention she will repeat this number for 2024 as well. So basically, 2 years of selling by taylor > gaga’s entire career total sales. - just stop. let it go. Even I am tired of clocking you in the head. admit Taylor is way bigger now than Gaga ever was. End your suffering. Edited February 19 by Kasix 1 2

Just admit Taylor is way bigger now than Gaga ever was. End your suffering First of all, Lady Gaga doesn't have 20 years. Learn how to count. Second, we're talking peak eras. You can laugh all you want but ONE Gaga era outdid any era Taylor has ever had. Taylor NEEDED to release more albums in one year to even come close. Midnights couldn't catch up to TF, neither could 1989. NOTHING Taylor has ever done has topped TF in global success. The Fame: 40 million units Midnights: 14.4 million units 1989: 34.7 million units Lover: 16.4 million units None of them are reaching the height of TF. You think combining the consumption of multiple albums largely consumed by the same people will somehow be a bigger peak than ONE album doing more than those said albums in total? Ain't no nobody in their right mind thinking The Fame era with its THREE Diamond singles was smaller than Midnights or 1984 which both sold less and had lesser hits. This combining three albums at the height of someone's career cannot be compared to someone who released one album at the height of their career. It's apples and oranges. But as far as individual eras go then Gaga still remains above Taylor in terms of peaks and your meltdowns, dirty language and try-hard attitude won't change that. Stay bitter, pressed and take the L because this discussion my dear fellow-ATRLer you indeed did LOSE Edited February 19 by BrandNewBrandon 3

Why don’t you stop running and just face the facts? Edited February 19 by Kasix 3

Taylor did not do that much with one album. She wouldn't have been doing that if she only released Midnights. And if you say she would've then anyone can also say Gaga could achieved that if she released another album in 2010. So the comparison doesn't make sense because one has released three albums in a year and the other has not. What DOES make sense, however, is comparing individual eras since both of them had those. And in those individual eras Gaga outdid Taylor with more consumption per album and the bigger hits. It's not fair to compare her achievement in terms of peaks with stating how many units she moved with 10+ albums in one year against an artist that only had one album out when she was peaking. Like, what else was Gaga going to move units with other than TF? So in that way, their peaks can only be compared with individual eras. That's the most fair. Sure, Taylor moved more units with 10+ albums charting but as a fan of Taylor's you also have way more albums TO consume than a Gaga fan had in 2010. In other words, all Taylor stans consumed Midnights or 1989 in one way or another and all Gaga fans consumed TF in one way or another. And what album had more units? TF. I wouldn't argue than Taylor is CLOSE behind Gaga in terms of peaks at all but with what we can compare and draw comparisons from, Gaga clearly still has the edge in terms of peaks with TF.

It’s doing about 0.8-1.2m each year. it’s pure sales was slowed down due to streaming but it doesn’t even matter, cus again, just 2 years of Taylor’s sold more albums than Gaga’s entire career. how much more L do u wanna take?

It’s literally only been out for 1 1/2 year & already at 15M. Gaga had 15 years to reach 40m, You don’t think midnights is gonna cruise to 40m from 10 years of streaming? So yea, congrats. You just let me know Taylor will have a streaming era album racking up more sales than Gaga’s who got hers during the pure sales era. You got rekt again. Edited February 20 by Kasix 3
