Rep2000 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) Pop stans can't even handle her being at #1 on iTunes. You think they can handle her being No.1 back to back?! And let it be know, when she dominated the top 10, all of them songs have better points than whatever #1 of the week today. But sure, let get Estonia or some European country to be the goal post of success again, shall we? So tired of y'all eurocentrics.

The Music Industry Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 11 minutes ago, BrandNewBrandon said: Um okay. Still doesn't change the fact that Ariana is able to do it more often than Taylor outside of the US. Even if that was the case (which it isn't), what exactly are you trying to prove or suggesting by saying this? That she's more global than Taylor? Because we both know that's not true 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theluckyone Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Not if she sticks to her current strategy of not releasing a single until the album releases, then just letting the singles 2/3 ride out by themselves. I miss a traditional single era like 1989 from Taylor though, but if this strategy is paying off more for her, I don't see her changing it.

Bonicap Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 It's all about the pre-release single. And she won't release any, so no. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is who is bigger globally. Ariana has more hits in Europe. Taylor bigger album sales in Europe. Both are big in Latin America. Both are streaming forces.

If you look outside of their home bases they're pretty much on the same level popularity-wise. Taylor isn't occupying the entire top 10 like she does in the US in Germany, France, Japan, South Africa, Brazil, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Mexico, Greece and her first-week placements and positions are similar to what Ariana does. I wouldn't be so sure as to say she's bigger outside of the US. And that was the initial statement which was of course derailed by a Taylor stan.

Global does not mean looking at a few select countries individually, it means looking at the entire global picture, something the IFPI does better than any other official chart company, and their results are decisive: Taylor is more global than any artist right now. 8 minutes ago, BrandNewBrandon said: And that was the initial statement which was of course derailed by a Taylor stan. … except it was you who derailed a thread once again with your Taylor obsession by randomly bringing up top 10 placements in a thread that's explicitly about #1s, and nothing else. 1 hour ago, BrandNewBrandon said: But Ariana is having a second single go Top 10 in almost every country in the world.

Communion Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 2 hours ago, Jude said: The sad attempt to setup Ariana just so you can drag her. Pathetic losers! You know the girls are taking to heart that the planted Lily Jay stories ended up doing nothing 10 months later if we got people who don't even like Ariana making threads set up to have her dragged by a fandom who has always hated her to a deranged degree.

PoisonPill Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) Extremely easily, if she releases a single ahead of the album like Ariana does. But she hasn't done a pre-album single since Lover. Edited March 19 by PoisonPill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jude Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Not the Swifties arguing with the OAHs who obviously made this thread so they can drag Ari. Predictable af.

Hunter_13 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Oh I'm sure if Taylor did try pushing another song to #1 with a video and 3 remixes y'all would be having meltdowns about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wastedpotential Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I think y'all forget how close Karma got to #1 the week it got the Ice Spice remix and video. Yeah it was blocked by Last Night, but it was a pretty close week. She showed then, when it was quite close, that she didn't give a **** about a second #1 single (and really, all the Anti-Hero remixes were only released because she wanted to demolish Drake in particular ). If she wanted it from Midnights, she would've had it, and if she wants it from TTPD, she will get it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
