She's not a huge star there but her songs have longevity.

Love story sold twice as much as the song that blocked it.

[Unbreakable Heaven]

FINALLY!

[Rayaine]

Hopefully...

[Donald J. Trump]

she should be on her 7th number 1 right now. uk messed up!

[Pikachoo]

Miss swift is coming for reigning Queen of the industry, Miss Fenty, oh yes she is.

[Hunter_13]

Finally. 

 

I felt like she was cursed there.

 

Love Story, I Knew You Were Trouble, and Shake it Off all got blocked at #2. 

 

But they all had great longevity and sold well in the end, and that's what matters.

I thought IDWLF went #1 there wth how did it only peak at #5 

 

Congrats Taylor tho!

I could've sworn Shake It Off & Blank Space made it to #1, I used to hear them all the time! Hope she gets the #1 this time then!

SIO would've made it if it wasn't taken off Spotify, I think  BS peaked at #4 and would've also probably peaked at #1 if it was on Spotify.

She's the biggest popgirl in Asia this decade and her U.K. stats are more than respectable.

 

Taylor Swift - 155,000

Fearless - 540,000

Speak Now - 185,000

Red - 565,000

1989 - 1,060,000

 

Her first three eras were country and that genre is dead in the U.K. She's only a flop in France, Spain and most South American markets, but she's growing in all of them.

First?  Wow, she used to be really local.
