London

Moment of truth today - has she sold enough to be #1 for a fortnight!!

I wouldn't mind Down Bad as a single with a video. I actually quite like it though it wouldn't be my first choice.

Hi Andrew! A big welcome to you! Fab to hear about the 30 day at ng challenge ! I love champagne problems - takes me right back to lockdown Christmas 2020 and winter lockdown 2021! That album really suited the mood of the moment.

Can't wait to get my cd single - dispatched today ! Whoop

I completely agree. They are all so different which I really wouldn't have thought on first listen!

Only just saw this! Hello Connor!! Speak now is for sure the best choice for favourite album :heart:

This is a tough one - both songs are truly awesome. At the time though, style was my favourite so I'll vote blank space off.

I haven't had my wow moment with the prophecy yet but for sure it will come! I can also understand why fortnight was chosen. Also, how poetic 14 songs made the top 14 in the US lol

I very much identify with this review linked below. It wasn't an instant hit for me but I love it more each time I listen to it and songs which weren't favourites to begin with have become just that. Good to see others having similar experiences withe album. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/04/26/entertai...udge/index.html 'One week later, my view of the album has entirely reversed. After spending more time with the two-hour sonic feast, more methodically touring through its subtleties and nuances, I am ready to declare that it is one of Swift’s best works yet. Anecdotally, it seems others are also identifying with this experience, initially expressing tepid feelings toward the album, and then realizing after a few listens it has really grown on them.'

Wouldn't have chosen this order myself but I'm glad it shows people were being thoughtful in their choices and wasn't just like this because people just let the album play. Big thanks to Joseph for our new banner ! :wub:

I'm guessing this will secure her a second week at number 1?

I just wish they'd have sold the cd single for £3.99 or something (like the good old days in Woolworths) and the postage was £2 cheaper - that would have made me feel better. But anyway I still bought it regardless.

Wow :wub: Love this - I'm gonna check out the order.

Was so excited by the £1.99 then spent £8000 on p&p lol

I'm a huge Taylor fan and I bought 1 cd and streams get cut off and don't count at a certain point anyway. The amount of people who buys lots of variants is minimal. You're entitled to your opinion but it's not a fact. What is a fact is that she is achieving amazing things, with amazing sales numbers.

WD But love them both

I completely agree with you. I'm not sure how many ways Sour Candy can inform us they don't like Taylor. We get it - you've made your point. It's getting kinda boring now. We all have a different point of view - that's okay - let's all enjoy our different points of views and allow everyone together feel happy about it.

2.61 million in the US is absolutely insane.

The smallest man who ever lived a lot today !!

I can do it with a broken heart would make sense for the next single given it's commercial appeal / popularity. I'd love to see Who's afraid of little old me or the smallest man who ever loved turned into singles / given a video but doubt that will happen. I think we'll definitely get the second part in physical format which will give the album another boost one week. The pessimist In me though wonders if we won't get much more though.

The smallest man who ever lived is perfection

That's a good point - I didn't even think about why Enchanted wasn't on the list!

The lyrics are perfect - we've all been there !

Just been reading all the records she's been breaking / matching with this release this week and in the last 12 years - absolutely phenomenal. She's such a talent and had really great things. And with a big potential for another number 1 with reputation Taylors version, she'll won't be dying down just yet.

Great that Fortnight is still doing so well on video.
