I remember 3 weeks ago Swifties claimed Beyonce only debuted so well because she had so many tracks. So now what's the truth? 

Taylor broke the Midnights record with 12 songs. Hope this helps!

Anti-Hero is the lead single with a MV and promoted on playlists as lead single. Why wouldn't it have the most streams?  

So why are you comparing cowboy Carter which has no music videos and no clear single after the album drop?

Meh Swifties are a numbers driven fan base. It's a single and they want it to do better than everything else so they will stream it more than their favorite songs so that Taylor can be #1 for weeks. See Anti Hero getting the most streams on Midnights when Lavender Haze, the opening track, is a much better song.

And like I said if the album had half the tracks it would also have half the streams. This is not about comparing to cowboy Carter.

So it's not a hit it's her fans obsessively streaming a song and purchasing so that she can stay #1.

And she wouldn't break it again this time if she didn't have almost triple the songs. Math is math.

The streams ain't matching the acclaim, or lack thereof. 

That's because the GP has never heard of Sputnik or Anthony Fantano, nor would they care if they had

If the swifties were a numbers driven fan base, Carolina would have gone #1. This is all the GP baby

 

Also lead singles tend to get more because they are the lead single.  Done lost your minds

Naw Flowers was an organic smash song you couldn't escape. Haven't heard this song once.

Any Taylor criticism:

 

The cult: BUT SPOTIFY RECORDS

All of this for a complete dud of an album. And no Swifties, this will not be remembered in time retrospectively as a good or even decent body of work outside of your fanbase. Likely it'll just be another case study in the insane level of fame megastars like Taylor Swift achieve. 

Good thing our fanbase is the GP

See when you have 31 tracks

Whew yall are pressed by your hypocrisy. 
 

While I take a few seconds on this thread you keep streaming and purchasing multiple copies of an album you don't even like just so that you can pat yourself on the back for keeping your fave on top rewarding her for mediocre repetitive word salad diary ex break up music for the fifteenth time this decade!

What? TTPD department broke the MIDNIGHTS record with 12 songs. Midnights set the record with 20 tracks. 

[OhMyAlf]

Not sure whether to be absolutely amazed or disgusted with this, kinda insane numbers  I love the album though, but even I cant say it's worth these numbers

Given how big the album is, I'm saying obviously Fortnight has a colossus number of streams. The entire album has colossus streams on every song. If you're asking me if the song was pushed on its own, would it have the success it's currently seeing? No, lol. 

Do you have anything that can help you back this claim up? Because

 

Biggest 5th days of all-time:

1. Flowers

2. Driver's License

3. Fortnight

4. Seven

5. Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53

6. Anti-Hero

7. Easy On Me

8. As It Was

9. Un x100to

10. 7 Rings

 

8 standalone singles and 2 Taylor Swift songs  So it seems like for the most part songs get more streams when they're pushed on their own rather than with an entire album

[Psycho]

At this rate the album will reach 1 trillion streams by 2038

[UnusualBoy]

Some of you will find any excuse to discredit these numbers, 

 

At least I gotta admire the dedication

If her fans alone are doing these numbers, then I'm afraid her fanbase is the GP.

That her numbers would be even worse without them  Taylor's first four tracks alone outdid cowboy cosplay

Oh I agree with that statement. Seeing a father buy his 9 year old daughter 7 vinyls from target totaling $300 dollars told me all I need to know.

Which is my exact point about Fortnight's performance given TTPD's success is not "standard". We're on a thread discussing how it accumulated 1B streams in 5 days, lol. So my point about Miley's Flowers being more impressive and big as a standalone single given her "flop" eras preceding it, stands.
