Her site disabled order tracking so we have no idea for the other variants and main version. 1

This fan base deserved Meth!

SpeakNowTv Posted March 17 Posted March 17 are we expecting her to acknowledge the 1 year anniversary of the tour today?

Maroon legacy Posted March 17 Posted March 17 On previous pages people act like she and her team will be absolutely silent in the week before the release and the week after, then Taylor will post instagram story like "hey my album is out, here's the link" and go silent before the new tour leg starts. The hype is dead, because they're not planning anything before the ttpd. Right now you don't need hype for an album that is coming in a month. The hype will be there mid-april, so just wait and enjoy other artists. 2 2 2
Nein Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Why would her team do anything now, there's still a month of waiting

Michael196 Posted March 17 Posted March 17 I know that many hate it, but she needs to slap it at the end of TTPD: the secret files edition, along with the other tracks from the physical editions… the song has been amazing since day one regardless of the association. 3

omrimayo Posted March 17 Posted March 17 So f the Target number is above 150K and it’s kind of confirmed, we can all assume she’s on at least 600-700k just a guess but that’s how I feel. We know in the first out she sold 100k vinyls just after the Grammy alone and another 3 versions came after, with cds also.
Nein Posted March 17 Posted March 17 This album will mark my 10th year of stanning her. In the 10 years, I've seen: - SIO battling with AATB for #1 on BB100 - Taking SIO off Spotify + big letter - 1989 leaks, with me listening to BS thinking it wouldn't be a hit but was proven so wrong - 1989 first week numbers, with ATRL sighing relief that she failed to outdo Britney's record - Her ignoring Style, and it peaking at #6; and even choosing to do BS at the BRITs instead of Style - Bad Blood squad hype and then subsequently getting backlash for it - Wildest Dreams' slow climb to its peak of #5 - Bleachella and those ugly dead hair - Kanye Famous-gate, 1989 AOTY speech - Calvin Harris breakup, Tom Hiddleston pap pics on the rocks, the intense backlash - RIP Taylor Swift 1989-2016 murals - Her going into permanent hiding for years, including the luggage pap pics - Releasing IDWLF to #2 - Dropping all her albums back on Spotify on Katy's release week - Social media blackout and LWYMMD - ATRL HATING LWYMMD, and its frontloadedness, and dropping - RFI single rollout mess, being a promo single turned into single, with Joseph Kahn directing getting backlash - Gorgeous pre-release drop and getting intense backlash for those "cut-glass lyrics" - Secret Sessions backlash "only about xx people know." tumblr post - reputation not being on streaming services, garnering her her last 1mil opener for a while, and it appearing on streaming with no promo cuz all the big streaming services hated her - Endgame being the next single to no buzz - NO PROMO at all after rep's first week, coupled with VSFS cancellation because of her supposed weight gain - rep tour fearing failure to sell out, and then being proven wrong - ME! pre-release garbage rollout, five holes in the fence - ME! "Hey kids, spelling is fun" - Both ME! and YNTCD being blocked by Lil Nas and peaking at #2 - YNTCD f-words meltdown for appropriating LGBT culture - Lover failing to hit a million opening sales despite the 4 diaries entries, to ATRL's mockery and meltdowns - Scooter Braun/Scott masters drama eclipsing her releases like "Beautiful Ghosts" - CATS fiasco - Lover promo single turned into actual single - Her random decision to start wearing suits as an aesthetic because of "The Man" - The Man making no noise - folklore & evermore surprise announcements "Not a lot going on at the moment" and the subsequent 9 square boxes on IG - evermore being accused as folklore's AOTY contender material - Fearless, Red, Speak Now, 1989 TV - Midnights release + breaking all Spotify records and her return to 1m opening sales - Eras Tour and her domination of "Cruel Summer" - Eras Tour controversies: ticket sales, LATAM, SG and Southeast Asia anger. - And now TTPD. So much has happened in 10 years and I doubt this is all that happened. 7 3

Not to jynx her but I'm 99% positive that the pre-orders are already above 1M. If she sold 150k of the Target edition (vinyls + CD) and 100k (Manuscript vinyls only) in 1 hour, I don't understand how she could be below 1M by now in total. Edited March 17 by Klein 3

folkloreking Posted March 17 Posted March 17 If TTPD is somehow pop, I would adore a dark sound like this and Maroon. https://youtu.be/08qd-vsHbaY?feature=shared
