It's interesting to note he has contributions to songs by her friends Shawn Mendes, Ed Sheeran and Halsey as well as credits on Harry Styles' last album. Even Maren Morris has background vocals on his last album.
Dear Reader Posted July 8 Posted July 8 this chorus melody… it really makes me feel like I'm escaping into my mind 7
pepsimanvn Posted July 8 Posted July 8 (edited) Wait the 65k signed cd sales. I thought it's not possible to track sales from her store anymore? Edited July 8 by pepsimanvn
Dear Reader Posted July 8 Posted July 8 Lowkey wish they'd remove the Fortnight canvas on Spotify and replace it with others on all songs. folklore, evermore and Midnights have such beautiful ones. 1

Under Republic, she'll have had her personal longest running #1 album with TTPD, longest running #1 single with Anti-Hero, longest charting song with Cruel Summer, highest first week sales 3x over with Midnights>1989TV>TTPD, most successful tour with Eras, matched her AOTY wins, most critically acclaimed album with Red TV, charted more songs total on the Hot 100, more top 10s on the Hot 100, more #1s on the Hot 100, more cumulative weeks at #1 on the BB200, and had more #1 albums on the BB200. Holy sh*t you're right, i never thought of it that way Taylor really won at the end, didn't she?

Sometimes it's still possible for brief periods after a release before they disable things - maybe these were just available for such a short time that it was possible to track.
kayliah Posted July 8 Posted July 8 So 12th week on lock now. Good for her though. A personal best for the legend that she is. Hopefully she switches things up for the next album. I wish she would make another pure pop record again. Anti-hero and Cruel Summer shows she can still make bangers but i just wish we had another 1989 by a 35 year old with a somewhat pop mature sound and lyrics. How about taking inspiration from her thirties and her success.

How about taking inspiration from her thirties and her success. I think she will. She was very clear when TTPD came out when she said, "This is album i had to make for myself." I don't have the source but remember that clear as day. I took it as her saying this is a one-off album outside of her normal discography, and I think that's held to be true. 1

I want her to be more creative with her sound, i.e. doing something she has never done before.

How about taking inspiration from her thirties and her success. Sorry, reading your message one more time now and I think I might be on the same page with you. Yes, a Pop album but mature sound and more experimentation. I'm sure Jack can help her with it. He's one the best producers (if not the best) these days. And he has shown that he's quite versatile (collaboration with Lana, Lorre, St. Vincent, etc.). They just need to change the formula which helped them in the past. 1
genio Posted July 8 Posted July 8 (edited) Down Bad is SOTY lowkey She should make it a single Edited July 8 by genio 5
ATRL Moderator feelslikeadream Posted July 8 ATRL Moderator Posted July 8 PLEASE, we need her to block Em so he puts out some disrespectful and distasteful diss track about her, which she can use for promo for Rep TV (Also, if she wants the album to stay at the top, she could always release and promote Down Bad as the second single ) 1

She can be creative in her forties..i think she should cement her legacy further and make other diamond albums while she's still in her prime. I mean she will never be obsolete i think like a sheryl crow or alanis morisette. Love them but they were not relevant for 12 straight albums in a row. Also i do want her voice to age a bit and get even better by the time she goes in her forties. I grew up with taylor and will support her till shes in her 70s and 80s. 1

I think signed CDs are a little different since there's definitely a finite amount they can sell versus pre-orders for other things they have room to produce more before the shipment date if they "oversell" their initial stock
Blue. Posted July 8 Posted July 8 Are there any rumors about next week? Eminem should do north of 200K, and some said 300-350K which sounds like a reach to me considering her last album did 270K. If she wants to get that magic 13th week she will have to unleash something big.
Feanor Posted July 8 Posted July 8 These are the major #1 contenders for Billboard 200 chart in the upcoming weeks: 7/5 Zach Bryan 7/12 Eminem 7/19 Jimin & Stray Kids 7/26 - 8/2 - 8/16 Post Malone 8/23 Sabrina Carpenter 8/30 - 9/6 - It looks like she has a fairly good shot at blocking Zach Bryan, which will be the album's 12 week at #1. HDD is predicting 300-350k for Eminem, so I think that will be the first time 'TTPD' drops to #2, and I don't think it'll return to #1 the week after either, since those two K-Pop albums will most likely debut with 150-200k each. But 'TTPD' will have a shot at #1 again in those 2 weeks prior to Post's album dropping, since those K-Pop albums will free-fall after week 1 and Eminem's album may have slowed down by its 3rd and 4th week. 2
Klein Posted July 8 Posted July 8 (edited) The bridge of The Prophecy is really top tier And I sound like an infant Feeling like the very last drops of an ink pen A greater woman stays cool But I howl like a wolf at the moon And I look unstable Gathered with a coven round a sorceress' table A greater woman has faith But even statues crumble if they're made to wait I'm so afraid I sealed my fate No sign of soulmates I'm just a paperweight In shades of greige Spending my last coin so someone will tell me It'll be ok I always have an actual physical reaction to "But I howl like a wolf at the moon". I don't know what it is, but it's like something wants to get out and I guess it just gets me. That song is truly settling as one of my (all time?) favorites from her. I still can't believe I got to witness it live as my surprise song, and mashed-up with an evermore song no less. Between this and loml in Paris N1 + The Alchemy/Treacherous in Paris N4 + Chloe in Lyon N2, I truly got blessed by the TTPD gods. Edited July 8 by Klein 7 1

At this point, more successful albums will not really add anything to her legacy, she's already one of the very most successful artists of all time. There's no legacy extension to be made from another successful album. Extending her musical palette with new soundscapes is pretty much the only thing she can still actively do to extend her legacy. The rest will be up to time. EDIT: actually, exploiting her current level of success to venture into new territories sonically and making sure people are aware of it is the best thing she could ever do.
