Starlight 13

I believe so yes! I remember this happening during the Red TV release - around the Wednesday mids she suddenly went up by about 25k overnight when her store dispatched a big batch of physicals, so I'm pretty sure they're only added to the sales total once dispatched :yahoo:

Finally got a dispatch email for my vinyls about an hour ago! Two people I know also got them today

Insane numbers. If you’d have told me a week ago she will cross 100k I would’ve laughed - these numbers are absolutely unbelievable :wub: I’d love for her to cross the 200k mark but feel she will probably end somewhere in the 180k-190k region..

:w00t: :w00t: :w00t: :w00t: :w00t: :w00t: :w00t:

Oops, not sure why I remembered it differently lol. I remember it dropping after day 1 though -_- Insane that AH debuted with 10M more globally than LWYMMD did :o

I ordered all the vinyls (I am unhinged) and I still haven't received any of them, ordered weeks ago when they went on sale! Feel like the only person who hasn't. I haven't even received tracking info :( (all ordered from her website)

Apparently she can't release 1989 TV until the Shake It Off lawsuit is totally closed, and its unlikely for that to be closed by next summer (which is likely when the tour will be) Provided that was released, she could get away with touring - there arent really any songs on Debut/Speak Now that she would need to perform on tour (the only song form those albums on the Rep tour setlist was Should've Said No) it would just be Reputation.. unless she releases LWYMMD (TV) as a one off :lol:

Anti-Hero dropped 12% from Saturday to Sunday and Unholy dropped 23%, #1 pretty much on lock then I think Look What You Made Me Do only managed 1 or 2 days at the #1 on Spotify from memory, it was floating around the low top 5 by the end of the week

Believe me, I tried and tried, but I just cannot get on board with "players gonna play, haters gonna hate" and even worse.... "this, SICK...BEAT" :cry: :lol: Blank Space was THE single from 1989 for me, absolute pop perfection. WANEGBT is probably my favourite lead single of hers, that was instant LOVE, although I do absolutely adore Mine too :wub: and Anti-Hero is now up there!

Spotify numbers are out for yesterday - 3rd day streams 692k and over 200k ahead of Sam/Kim still Anti-Hero's streams dropped by 12% from Saturday to Sunday and Sam/Kim dropped by 21%, so #1 is pretty much on lock now! I know it basically always was, but after the Drake/GLG fiasco last year, you can never be too sure :P

:w00t: :w00t: :w00t: 3rd day streams 692k, still very strong. Still has the top 5 and 13 of the top 15. Anti-Hero's streams dropped by 12% from Saturday to Sunday and Sam/Kim dropped by 21%, so #1 is pretty much on lock now :w00t:

As previously mentioned by somebody I do honestly think the ME! release scared her... no lead single since :cool: LWYMMD and SIO are some of her worst singles IMO too, it really irks me that her most recognised song is SIO, its not at all reflective of her artistry or songwriting ability <_<

Am I the only 'Question...?' stan? Can't get enough of this song at the mo :wub:

Spotify finally updated the playcounts for Saturday, 790k for Anti-Hero on Day 2 and she still has the whole top 5 and 13 of the top 15 Sam is at #6 with 491k and David/Bebe at #14 with 358k

#1 in the first look today as expected.. and Lavender Haze/Snow On The Beach at 2/3 :wub: Hope she can manage the top 3 by end of the week!

From this article in The Sun: SHAPE OF DOCU Ed Sheeran filming tell-all documentary as he confirms tour will last until 2026 "Released on Friday, by midnight on Saturday 131,057 copies had been snapped up here, while Arctic Monkeys’ The Car had shifted 102,494. The astronomical numbers in such a short time are impressive given the previous fastest-selling album of 2022 was Harry Styles’ Harry’s House, which saw 113,000 copies bought over seven days in May. It is Taylor’s highest first-week sales in the UK and means Midnights is already certified gold." 131k in the first 2 days....... WHAT? :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink:

I'm also trying to not celebrate too early - Drake debuted with similar numbers on Spotify for GLG last September and ended up at No 2 by the end of the week, but I'd be very pleased if she did manage a double. She's never done the double here! I'm annoyed that Spotify hasn't updated today, I was looking forward to see if streams have stayed relatively stable or tanked!

Agreed. Folklore isn’t my favourite music she’s ever made in terms of style, but it was an amazingly written album and I think it won her a lot of respect from casual listeners. This is looking to be her biggest opening week in the US to date. I wouldn’t be surprised if she did it in the UK too. Her biggest week here was 1989 at around 94k I believe?

Yep, she has the biggest pure sales of the year after her first days sales alone…. apparently did 800k in pure sales in one day (obviously all the pre sales in there), I know she’s massive there but I am kind of shook :lol:

Wow! What’s the source of this? EDIT: I’ve now seen Billboard posted it.. wow I’m a little shook, I knew her numbers were going to be huge but this is way bigger than we could have imagined :wub: She also has the #1 pure sales of the year in the US after her first day alone… surpassed Harry’s House with just her pre orders lol, wow

Called it!!!!

First 1M+ debut week in the US since Reputation, IT'S COMING. I know it is :kink:

I think it's safe to say Taylor is getting the No.1 now... her spotify numbers for yesterday are absolutely obscene

Debuts at #1 on WW Spotify with 17.39M, biggest opening in Spotify history Debuts at #1 on UK Spotify with 1,159,687 :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:

I am F L O O R E D, this is bigger than I could have ever imagined :wub:
