Taylor Swift - 'THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT'

There's another Adele stan that made this long rant setting her up for Midnights sales, saying something along the lines "SURELY this new album will sell more than a re-recording right?" or something like that. Swifties saved it and kept bringing it up but I can't find it :dies:

In retrospect Midnights' smashery truly gagged me like I had rarely been gagged. It would take TTPD to beat 25 to replicate that feeling now :dies:

Delete You All Over Me and put Begin Again at last.

Last night I had a dream she announced every edition of the album was a different genre. People were melting down because they only liked and/or wanted certain ones and they pre-ordered everything. Nnnn

 

Not you casually inventing the TS12 gimmick and hiding it in a cute spoiler tag like that.

Shania Twain did that with her album Up! except she sold it as a two disc package. The RIAA counted every sale twice because of it, scamming her 5M seller to a diamond certification. But you're right. Lord would sell each version seperately to increase revenue.

It truly was the perfect storm and the first time we got to see the actual impact Folkmore/Re-recordings had on her career and appeal as an artist. I mean, as a Swifties that really never gave a damn about how successful her releases are because in my opinion she did it all already, 1989 was always going to be this imperial era that just can't be replicated. 99% of artists will never replicate a smashery of that size and then came the Midnights + Eras Tour galactic tour de force.

 

The whole top 10 on the Hot 100. :deadbanana2:

Her (then) best selling album ever after we've given on 1M+ opening weeks. :deadbanana2:

With Midnights it was so unexpected, like, I was just minding my business and then that Spotify tweet dropped and my world shifted :jonny5:

It would be more fitting for TS13 though. Imagine getting her 13th album in all the different genres she explored through her career. :jonnycat:

A Shania double album tea, like we thought we were booking for Midnights and Jack's Version v. Aaron's Version

I still remember that tweet like it was yesterday "And before the clock could even strike midnight..." :jonny5:

 

And everyone being like "why can't I see the word female in that statement?!"

Well, at this point I think Taylor only posted those lyrics because of the eclipse thing and it's not happening again.

 

Why is she being like that, I hate it here

My life literally changed in that moment. I'd kinda been in the "oh, I hope it does like 120M because that's a nice, reasonable boost from where Red TV and folklore were" camp, and then all of a sudden she took a giant dump on Drake and still had like 4 hours to go :deadbanana4:

 

I have my meltdowns from that exact moment immortalized in a WhatsApp chat and I go back to look at them often nnnn :jonny5:

Because she knows we'll be out here miserable expecting a new one each day and perched on her instagram. That's her new way of promoting: let the fans do all the hard work.

The more miserable we are, the more albums we buy to console ourselves

Yes, 1989TV got really close, and that was a re-recording. I'll be really shocked if this doesn't at least clear 200M

You're Losing Me, her most recent Spotify release, did like 7M in 9 hours, and was a random droplet

I don't want to set her up but I'd be really surprised if she didn't beat her own record for the first day on Spotify.

The way we'd be surprised/shocked if she didn't get a 50M lead over the second best non-Taylor debut :deadbanana4::deadbanana4::deadbanana4::deadbanana4::deadbanana4:

I'd be devastated if it leaked more than 2 days ahead of release cause I'm avoiding that **** like the plague. I can imagine 2 days of cleansing from social media/ATRL, but more than that will be HARD
