there are so many better songs in the albums, this kinda does nothing to me

If Fortnight gets knocked off #1 next week, we could be seeing the first one week #1 of 2024

Expecting Espeesso to have the highest #5 sales for a while.

Is Jack Saunders dyslexic? Week after week we hear him getting chart positions wrong.

So it looks like both “…broken heart” and “down bad” managed to sneak out the other two higher placed album tracks on the final day!

Much like the lead single, this is a total snooze :drama:

So it looks like both “…broken heart” and “down bad” managed to sneak out the other two higher placed album tracks on the final day!

Biography

 

The country world feigned surprise when, after three albums of Music Row-indebted songcraft, Taylor Swift formally embraced pop on 2012’s Red. But no one should have been shocked: Any 14-year-old capable of persuading her parents to move from suburban Pennsylvania to Nashville for her career clearly has ambition to burn. And the thrill of following Swift’s rise has been watching her execute it flawlessly, largely because her melodic intelligence is equal to that ambition. Her early, youthful love songs heralded 2010's newly self-possessed Speak Now—which showed off her scathing wit—and evolved into knowing, ironclad pop fare that held its own against boisterous Max Martin production on 1989, her fifth album, titled after her birth year. Throughout, her songwriting has blurred the lines between the public and private, burying enough real-life clues (about, say, scarves and Starbucks) to make clear that only Swift can own her narrative, thank you very much, while still retaining a lyrical elegance. Though 2017’s reputation might have been perceived as a gorgeously constructed piece of dramatic theater—its attendant heroes and villains all real-life characters from Swift's public feuds—all that spectacle proved an attention-grabbing cover for her most romantic album yet. She turned up the romance even more on 2019’s Lover, but it was 2020’s folklore and its companion, evermore—ruminative, relatively lo-fi albums written and recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic—that earned her the Apple Music Award for Songwriter of the Year. She followed those up in 2022 with Midnights, which she wrote and produced with Jack Antonoff, and described as "the stories of 13 sleepless nights scattered throughout my life." In 2023, Swift undertook one of the most ambitious road shows of all time: the multi-year Eras Tour, which saw her presenting new and classic material across more than 100 locales worldwide. It was just one of many reasons she was named Apple Music's Artist of the Year for 2023. - Apple Music

Taylor not even getting the whole top 3, what a flop.

 

Disappointed that 'Down Bad' ended up knocking 'So Long, London' out this week, it's one of the weaker songs on the album for me. Ah well. The other 2 that are charting are both good at least.

 

edit: oh I was assuming the other one was 'I Can Do It With A Broken Heart', I guess that will knock out the title track next week though. Both of them are pretty good but I do prefer ICDIWABH.

i do like this one but its not a highlight tbh (ideally the bolter would be #1 but obvs not gonna happen)

 

 

boo I can do it with a Broken Heart missed

again this is not a favourite from the album

This has exactly mirrored Midnights with the 1, 3 and 4

the Charlie Puth line is such a cringe very ver bad

it's like if she's trying to do a genius Phoebe Bridgers line but that's not it

I like this one but it feels like she's done it hundreds of times before, the album has more interesting and dynamic moments.

the best thing bout this one is the Lucy Dacus namedrop <3

This has exactly mirrored Midnights with the 1, 3 and 4

 

!! though unlike midnights i expect it wont stay as those same 3 songs, but instead some of them will end up replaced next week!

These new Taylor tracks sound really boring to me. She's done much better in the past. I can't be bothered to listen to 31 tracks of this kind. But respect to her fans for buying her albums in such numbers.

Only heard two songs from the album before today thought both were pretty good but these two are quite underwhelming to say the least

thats the thing - not all 31 songs are like this! there are some absolute gems in there that are much better than these ones, and defo not sounding like these, especially in the latter half
