Yeah she did "pop" remixes of 1 or 2 Speak now tracks but she was definitely still country up until 1989 with Red being the hybrid album which bridged the gap

And she was certainly no less country that country icons like Shania twain

Edited June 3Jun 3 by 777666jason

Less a pop transition and more leaning fully into pop. Even debut was Country Pop.

Not UK but this was after Olivia’s live lounge yesterday!! 👀 wonder if it’ll help the cure stick at #1 on uk Spotify tomorrow

I need this to happen in the uk too plz. Take a sexy picture of me was robbed of a top 40 place but when a good man cries is one of my favourite songs this decade! Really hope it can become a smash it’s soooooo good

I kind of felt like Red was her halfway transition point from the country-pop thing, with 1989 being full-throttle.

100% true.

Wait, why? It's song #20 in a very long album

78. Noah Kahan- Orbiter

I've been listening to the album since it came out, and I guess nothing will top my spotify end of year list, unless Taylor will release something, and this song will be my most played of the year but I never looked to see that it's even in the chart, let alone climbing this much?

It's song number

It's been charting for a while, debuted at #82 in the official chart last week (due to the album title track going to ACR again). Presumably is just a viral hit.

The cds have sold out pretty much everywhere I dont think shes gonna struggle too badly, and tik tok seems to be teases a vinyl

At least a variant we dont know about yet if its not a vinyl looking at the colour

I think its safe to say it will do just fine

I mean her physical releases are always going to sell out quickly, that doesn't necessarily mean the song will be a massive streaming hit. I do think it'll probably debut at #1 but I wouldn't be that shocked if it didn't, her recent releases outside of albums haven't even gone top 10 (yes I know this has more of a push behind it etc. but even she is really not guaranteed to go to #1 straight away with literally anything she releases - in the singles chart anyway).

Thats not what they said though they said they dont think it will do well , whether it goes number 1 or not the fact its sold out everywhere is a good indicator it will do well regardless,

Plus even pixar are campaigning hard with this not just Taylor, they literally posting pictures of all the characters posing as her album covers the campaign is campaigning 🤣

It's a good indicator that the type of Taylor fans that will rush to order things from her FOMO "limited" CD runs haven't spontaneously disappeared. The CD sales alone aren't going to guarantee it being a big hit.

Toy story isnt even out until the 19th its safe to say its got 3 weeks minimum charting most likely longer babes 😘

Olivia next week though, could get chart double

Again where did I say it will be top for 3 week i said 3 weeks on chart 🤭
