So if Stephin Merritt can make a big deal out of 69 love songs, why can't Taylor Swift make a fairly big deal out of 16? His being formally savvy in his pop-polymath way and hers being formally voracious in her pop-bestseller way? Need either deal be autobiographical? One hopes not in both cases, although verisimilitude has its formal aspects for bestsellers. Swift hits the mark less often than Merritt‑-65 or 70 percent, I'd say. But one could argue that the verisimilitude requirement forces her to aim higher. I like the feisty ones, as I generally do. But "Begin Again" and especially "Stay Stay Stay" stay happy and hit just as hard. That's hard. A MINUS
My friend who's a fan of Snow Patrol » I suggest him to listen to TLT, but he listened to whole album, and he likes SoG, EHC, Treacherous, HG
He's gonna buy one because he collects cd
And my friend who's pop-star stan, likes WANEGBT, 22, Red, Starlight, IKYWT, and SBT ( kinda weird, he suddenly listen to Ronan, BTD, and CAY too, and he likes it )
But not sure he's gonna bu Red or not

These are just based off certifications not actual sales. Soon she will be ahead of Rihanna once Red, IKYWT, and Begin Again get certified.
34,000,000 - Rihanna
33,500,000 - Taylor Swift
29,500,000 - Katy Perry
24,500,000 - Flo Rida
22,500,000 - Lady Gaga
I want her to be #1 in overall sales

I won't get to watch it though
So is not SOG? maybe IKYWT?

All I know is we said hello
So dust off your highest hopes
All I know is pouring rain
And everything has changed
All I know is a new found grace
All my days I’ll know your face
All I know since yesterday
Is everything has changed
She has sold more of Red in 3 weeks than Fearless in 5 weeks. We will see what happens in the long run but so far the album is doing well. The key will be keeping up momentum for next year and having the sales remain steady. Next year is when the numbers should start to be a concern.

. Hope more people get converted.
