I hope she releases a single tomorrow!

I think the lead single for TTPD is coming this March. If not, then on the album release day.

her strategy of dropping the entire album without an earlier single has helped her opening streaming numbers tremendously tbh.

why waste all that hype on 1 song alone, hoping that hype will translate over to the actual album release?

I have a feeling the title track is going to be the lead single :cold3:

 

Spoiler

(unless she surprise announces I Can Fix Him (No Really I Can) as the lead single tomorrow)

I'm not too sure about that. The title track is really wordy, this doesn't scream radio smash. And if there's one thing I'm sure is that she'll release a song that's going to be played to ******* hell on the radio as the first single.

Down Bad has single vibes to me, aside from the obvious Fortnight

It aint even just a strategy, it saves her the trouble of potentially choosing the wrong single as she could’ve in many cases. 
 

she was initially gonna make lavender haze the first single instead of AH, and for 1989tv she was gonna choose sluf! instead of iion. We saw all the leaks from the radio stations about how she pulled sluf! from their stations Just weeks prior to release, and told them they’ll see which song gets the most streams first. 
 

im sure with her current all-in-one-go

True, and I feel it's working great with her, apart from the face that we're losing at least another number 1 song from each cycle.

we need a lead single. I'm tired of not getting anything until the album, we want a real ERA

Well, we’ll just have to make up that loss by tuning in for the Spotify records,  __out of 10 on hot100, and album track numbers instead. 
 

With her being as big as she is, there’s really no way that an early  single could keep every morbidly curious individual excited enough to also check out the album. Much better these very casual listeners contribute their streams for the album format than on a single.

I'm going to need the tracklist production to look like this

 

1. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

2. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

3. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

4. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

5. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

6. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

7. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

8. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

9. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

10. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

11. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

12. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

13. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

14. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

15. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

16. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

17. Swift - Antonoff - Dessner 

 

i don't GET why they refuse to work together. Hits Different is otherworldly.

we don't. 

 

she's an album artist now. we've been experiencing her albums as a whole for 4 years now, and it's been doing wonders for her. why would she start launching her earth-shattering eras with lil quick singles now when she can keep breaking her Spotify records?

So are we expecting something this week or all silence :clack:

if it's even remotely true

 

It's over 

On 2/8/2024 at 6:31 PM, FolkLover1989 said:

Also I think this era will be like a re-recording

 

Watch her release this and forgot about it to move to next re-recording

This will be evermore to Midnights 

On 2/8/2024 at 10:45 AM, FolkLover1989 said:

Cause I simply don't trust Jack much atp

 

2-3 songs per album with him. Great

Whole album with him. Danger

If this turned out to be Midnights 2.0 it would be end of the commercial dominance critical acclaim 

On 2/8/2024 at 10:30 AM, FolkLover1989 said:

The album needs to be great atleast 

 

Otherwise the criticism will be more than ever before

 

Midnights was good but this time neither critics nor audience will be forgiving of songs like Question?

 

Also Jack and Aaron again is making me :deadbanana4:

This is basically your only contribution to this thread. 

 

Aren't you tired of being so negative and dramatic?

Well

I am just cautiously optimistic for the first time :suburban:

 

Midnights anticipation damaged me and then 1989tv vault well

 

I am just hoping for some moment and promotion so we can see something new and my confidence can rebuild like pre Midnights

That's what you call cautiously "optimistic"? :rip:

When do we usually get producers list and track lengths? Like a week before release?

On the week of release, usually on the Monday/Tuesday.

I hope we get music videos. Obviously the MV effect has diminished over the years (I work in higher education and was SHOCKED when many students told me they have never watched music videos, even massive fans of Taylor who have never seen BLANK SPACE :deadbanana2:), but visuals are still nice. Kinda concerning that 1989TV got nothing.

 

Still have my tinfoil hat theory that a “Slvt!” video exists and she shelved it after IION became the single, though 

:clack:

This is actually what works in this strategy. Hype dies and when the album comes people are hyped like the announcment just happened cause everything feels 100% new.

There’s just too much else to discuss in the swiftiedom right now

fortnite will be a single for sure, she knows that putting the single in Track 1 will help with streaming numbers.

 

but the question is if there will be a different lead single, from later in the album, then fortnite will be the release single. (i think no different lead single)
