- Biggest opening week of the decade, overtaking Adele's "30".
- Biggest opening week since Ed Sheeran's 2017 album "÷".
- Tied with Madonna as the female artist with the most UK #1 albums.

Just been reading all the records she's been breaking / matching with this release this week and in the last 12 years - absolutely phenomenal. She's such a talent and had really great things.

And with a big potential for another number 1 with reputation Taylors version, she'll won't be dying down just yet.

One week in and I’ve now settled on the opinion that The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived is the best song Taylor has ever written. Just simply perfect.

First artist to have entire top 14 on BBH100! Not even in tracklist order either so people were definitely gravitating towards favourites etc.. biggrin.gif

Wouldn't have chosen this order myself but I'm glad it shows people were being thoughtful in their choices and wasn't just like this because people just let the album play.

Big thanks to Joseph for our new banner !

I very much identify with this review linked below. It wasn't an instant hit for me but I love it more each time I listen to it and songs which weren't favourites to begin with have become just that. Good to see others having similar experiences withe album.

https://edition.cnn.com/2024/04/26/entertai...udge/index.html

'One week later, my view of the album has entirely reversed. After spending more time with the two-hour sonic feast, more methodically touring through its subtleties and nuances, I am ready to declare that it is one of Swift’s best works yet. Anecdotally, it seems others are also identifying with this experience, initially expressing tepid feelings toward the album, and then realizing after a few listens it has really grown on them.'
