As an album of all new material with time for pre-orders to build, I would be surprised if this didn’t scrape 100k.
As for overexposed, it does feel like she has been unavoidable since 2022 as a chart follower. I get the comments that the general public may not feel it quite so much though. Cruel Summer sticking around the top 10 for so long hasn’t helped, though I can’t blame Taylor for that. |

In terms of U.K. songs most of the general public know in order I’d say:
Shake It Off, Anti Hero, Blank Space, Love Story, Cruel Sunmer Cruel Summer still needs more time but I think has just entered the category that it’ll be one of her known renowned songs. |

I would add "I Knew You Were Trouble" to the list. As well as being a big hit, it cemented itself with a goat meme that I still see pop up every now and again. If I remember correctly it went viral on vine and was quite big for a while. "Cruel Summer" will cement itself this summer in her stadium dates when everyone will be singing it! |

Yes for number one. I reckon around 50k Mark as album sales have been low for a while now. Third question I don't feel strongly about it.

Taylor’s last 3 releases in first week:
Midnights 204,501 Overall 75,667 CDs 61,948 vinyl 57,964 streaming 7,087 downloads 1,835 cassettes 1989 TV 184,965 Overall 75,672 CDs 61,791 vinyl 42,150 streaming 3,892 downloads 1,460 cassettes Speak Now TV 67,112 Overall 23,578 streaming 22,777 vinyl 16,783 CDs 2,963 downloads 1,012 cassettes I hadn’t noticed until now that Midnights and 1989 TV vinyl & CDs sold so similarly! |

I really hope this is in the same vein of Evermore and Folklore, 2 of my favourite albums of all time! She cannot do any wrong, literally a superstar! Listening to her back catalogue all the time, it’s outstanding! Hope they release more versions.

From what I've heard, it's synth-pop so I think it will sound more like Midnights than Evermore or Folklore. Although the title definitely gives folky vibes so who knows! |

Most of the song titles definitely don't look like 'folklore'/'evermore' type songs as well.

Perrsonally i dont care how many albums she is realsing and how often. The picture is set: another mediocre album sounding the same that will sell like crazy and thats all. I believe though that she is very smart ,releasing as many as she can, milking the cow to the maximum, while she is on a roll. So who cares...

Last few days to get predicting!
Apparently Taylor’s already sold 2m+ preorders in the US, which is quite insane. So it makes me wonder if this will in fact outdo Midnights here as well. |

been saying this for. while, think she's gonna do crazy numbers and beat Midnights
this time there are 4 vinyl variants and each has a different cover + an exclusive extra track, so I reckon many fans will buy the 4 of them... I did it myself, finally cave in and bought the 4 of them but the main reason is the Eras tour, which has placed it at a higher level of popularity than a couple years ago |

I can’t remember what I voted for now but I think it’ll best Midnights first week sales. Her US figures will be insane id already thought she’d clear 2 million there in the first week but if it’s there with the preorders then she might challenge Adele’s record.

Yes to #1
50,000 to 99,999 - maybe 85,000? Don't feel strongly either way |

I really can’t comprehend how anyone could seriously predict this to do less than 1989 TV
