I could be wrong though but you are downright saying it will be a 40+ million seller. I've been on this forum for maybe like 10 days total and I've already seen you talk about Taylor Swift in a negative connotation several times so of course you're going to say that. Based on the trajectory of her career, and where she is right now, she is 100% set up for success. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's that you initially said it will be bigger than 1989 (her peak era), which is what I don't agree with. And I don't agree with it because even Midnights failed to achieve that.

Midnights is quite literally selling at a much faster rate than 1989. By this point in 1989's chartrun (a year and a half after release), it had sold 5.8 million units. Midnights is at 7 million units. The singles just weren't as big. TTPD is 100% guaranteed to be bigger than Midnights, you don't have to be a Taylor Swift fan to see that. Even Helen Keller could tell. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really hoping she will do 2 million on its first week, it would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goaty Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 2 hours ago, BrandNewBrandon said: But the public's attention towards her albums being about exes hasn't been more profound so a new one might break the fascination of it for them. They don't follow her precisely enough to know what album came before that (and the re-recordings have made it messy) so this might as well be yet another album about an ex so that could drive less interest. But then again people love drama. It's hard to say. Fair point. Anecdotally she and her music have come up quite a bit among family, friends, and work colleagues, and a lot of people have expressed excitement about songs about Travis being on the album. Which we stans know is probably not going to happen. So I wonder even to what extent we'll see some people disappointed about the content of this album being about her breakup. Either way I think we can safely conclude the debut week (streaming and sales totals) are going to be her biggest yet. To what extent the album smashes beyond the first week is something we can't really predict without hearing the music first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CherryBay Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I have a feeling after Eras tour she will get pregnant with Travis so maybe then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericcartman Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Next era will see a slow down but she'll still be huge and above all her peers. It's just the current level she's at is not really sustainable. It was taylormania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to anticipate.

Gladiator Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 I think album 12 will take a dip, but there will be a resurgence for album 13 since that is so synonymous with her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
