1. epiphany (untouchable) 2. cardigan 3. my tears ricochet 4. seven 5. the last great american dynasty 6. mirrorball 7. exile 8. august 9. Betty 10. the 1 11. mad woman 12. this is me trying 13. the lakes 14. illicit affairs 15. hoax 16. invisible string 17. peace that 4-7 section is SO close. 8-10 are close. 14 to 16 are SO close as well. ahhhh

was also thinking that, besides the vinyl, the cassettes had a different release day, didn't they? cannot find it now but I thought I saw a different shipment day than vinyls...so we could see another bump when those cassettes go out

Probably not do much but anything is better than nothing ooh hopefully this'll provide exile & cardigan with some stability on iTunes, especially as it seems like radio 2 playlisting has really helped songs climb/stay stable on iTunes this year more than ever get those extra 50 sales *.* (and hopefully they'll playlist something properly next week!)

number #1 in America for a 2nd week with 135k
 a fab hold and next week should def be 3 figures, possibly an increase due to the target/in store physicals *.* <3More weeks at 1 than Lover! Of Folklore’s second-week units, SEA units comprise 102,000 (down 53%), album sales total 30,000 (down 95%) and TEA units equal 3,000 (down 81%). 981,000 total units and will pass 1mil asap

I’m optimistic we will do this if she’s already at #1 in the midweeks it’ll likely just extend the lead it already has hopefully!

6,700 sales whew!
some physicals definitely shipped for this week's chart then considering last Monday's update was 4,680 and streaming is lower this week! Lover did 11,459 3rd week. Lover had 4.1k on its 3rd Monday update so I'm guessing this week we'll end up in the ~14-18k zone |

This is amazing. Can’t believe it is doing so well! Clearly the impromptu release (plus the amazing reviews) have really worked!

US 2nd week:
08 01 01 02 Taylor Swift - cardigan 23 04 04 02 Taylor Swift ‒ the 1 36 06 06 02 Taylor Swift feat. Bon Iver ‒ exile 66 13 13 02 Taylor Swift ‒ the last great american dynasty 69 16 16 02 Taylor Swift ‒ my tears ricochet 73 23 23 02 Taylor Swift ‒ august 85 37 37 02 Taylor Swift ‒ invisible string 91 42 42 02 Taylor Swift ‒ betty 93 26 26 02 Taylor Swift ‒ mirrorball 98 35 35 02 Taylor Swift ‒ seven the other six fell out. Pretty great on the whole def wasn't expecting that many songs to last!! It's interesting whilst the UK's 2nd week most the tracks were still in trackless order, the US has really gone out of tracklist order! invisible string in 7th was a surprise to me  betty also unsurprisingly climbing into 8th! <3in comparison this was lover's 2nd week: 12 04 02 12 Taylor Swift ‒ You Need To Calm Down (with f***ing dull Lewis Capaldi 11th both times with songs that took 9000 years to take off in the US) 23 10 10 03 Taylor Swift ‒ Lover 54 11 02 20 Taylor Swift feat. Brendon Urie ‒ ME! 61 23 23 02 Taylor Swift ‒ The Man 71 29 29 02 Taylor Swift ‒ Cruel Summer 74 28 28 02 Taylor Swift ‒ I Forgot That You Existed everything else dropped out so slay folklore! |

Looks like #1 is v. likely happening <3 <3 with the extra day of streaming, we're probs looking at around ~6k, so I'm expecting a week just above/under 16k rn! |

'epiphany' and 'exile' are career highlights, with 'cardigan' and 'seven' not far behind.

Do you guys have any idea why Taylor is not huge in the rest of Europe? She's doing fantastic in the UK and Ireland, but in other markets like France, Germany, Italy and the Scandinavian countries she's just not that big.

I can’t wait to listen to this album in Autumn and Winter, I feel like it’ll sound even better
I get that it was released in July because it was recorded during lockdown but it really doesn’t feel like a summer album at all

This is now my favourite non Gaga album of the year so far!
I still can’t get enough of it as a whole piece. I love how she just didn’t hype this up didn’t even do any promo before hand just literally released with an announcement hours before. The music speaks for itself though. It’ll be so hard for her to beat this album for me now id love her to do some sort of intimate type tour purely just for this record the tracks would work so well in that setting (obv when it’s safe to do so etc). |
