I'm not sure it's as strong as 'Bangerz' for me, but I guess time will tell. Certainly the second best mainstream pop album since 'Teenage Dream' at least though, although to be fair, that's not that hard when Britney, Gaga, Katy and Rihanna have all been releasing sub-par albums. Ready for Rihanna's next album to truly BRING IT.

Love this album! Style should definitely be a single

Wildest Dreams would slot perfectly onto Born To Die, no question; she had to be listening to a lot of Lana around the time of writing this, I mean it's Lana to a T. Even the opening line matches the "let's get out of this town baby we're on fire" opening line to Lana's The Lucky Ones.

 

Although it should be sued for plagiarism (:lol:) it's so Lana that I ADORE it, by far my favourite of the bunch yet. :wub:

07.0 Welcome to New York

08.5 You Are in Love

The two Tedder tracks couldn't be more different. I think "Welcome To New York" is one of the most basic songs on the album (and my least favourite) whereas I find "I Know Places" to be one of the most intriguing. "Wonderland" and "New Romantics" are battling hard to displace "Out Of The Woods" as my top track.

 

Disappointed that "Blank Space" is seemingly the next single as I prefer the majority of the other songs. :lol: The verses don't really live up to the chorus for me.

I knew that opening line was from one of my favourite Lana songs but just forgot the name of it :D

 

Lucky ones is in my top 10 Lana songs (possibly top 5) so no surprise to why I love wildest dreams so much. I actually probably think its better than shake it off

09.0 Welcome To New York

07.5 Clean

 

SOLID. (maybe a bit of filler towards the end)

genuinely a fantastic album!

I am surprised she isnt going with Out Of The Woods next, surely it is the most logical choice?! It easily has the most hype around it right now. It is like when Katy Perry decided to not release Dark Horse after Roar.

'Style'' 'Black Space' and 'Wonderland' are GODLY

It might actually be the smart option. They probably know that like Roar, Shake it Off is so huge it will block the second single from smashing. So they're saving the obvious smash for third, a la Dark Horse.

 

Just as long as Wildest Dreams is released at some point. What a song.

Yeah I suppose that makes sense actually.

 

I agree on the Wildest Dreams love, it is stunning. I adore I Know Places and Wonderland too :wub:.

600k of this sold in the first day :o

Taylor Unstoppable!

She's announced a bunch of US and Canadian tour dates for next summer along with a couple for the UK!

 

Tuesday 23rd June - SSE Hydro, Glasgow

Wednesday 24th June - Phones 4u Arena, Manchester

Saturday 27th June - Hyde Park, London [headlining British Summer Time]

Aah so excited! I went to her Fearless Tour but wasn't able to make the last 2, will definitely be going to the Manchester show.

I really want to see Taylor live so I may look into going to the Manchester show, but I guess tickets will be snapped up in a matter of minutes once they are on sale! Hopefully she'll add a few more dates too.

 

Also, Spotify seem to be desperate to get Taylor back on their service - they've been tweeting her, starting a Twitter campaign and even created a playlist called "What To Play While Taylor's Away"! :lol:

Hits Daily Double have revealed that Taylor sold 1.316 million copies in the US last week, just 3,000 less than Britney's record! :o Although there are often differences between HDD's totals and the final Billboard totals (Slipknot's album sales increased by 5,000 last week) so could there still be a chance?

 

Whatever happens, absolutely phenomenal sales from Taylor!

Such a flop :(

 

Wanted her to snatch that record!

Out Of The Woods is by far my favourite track on the album!

Billboard have revealed that '1989' has debuted with 1.287 million sales: https://twitter.com/billboard/status/529835026008244225 so Taylor hasn't broken Britney's 'Oops!... I Did It Again' record. Still, tremendous sales in this day and age!

 

Wow amazing sales! I didn't quite expect her to break the record,but DAMN she was close
