Imagine the numbers she'd pull with a single that appeals to pop/country/rock fans that's an catchy as hell earworm that is still sharply written
WANETURD pulled Red a million without much country support or artistic credibility and Mine pulled SN a million with country support and minimal pop support so combine the two
F&A piano version slaying me right now. The pre bridge, good Lord

My prediction is that LP5 will hit commercially (not as big as WANEGBT or IKYWT) but it will still be significant, and it's metacritic score will be the same as Fearless.
Speaking of Grammys, Taylor Swift would be in the “locks” category had Red won Album of the Year in February. That would’ve been her second Album of the Year Grammy in four years, a clear demonstration of the dominance standard. But Swift didn’t win. Why didn’t she win again? I’m listening to Red as I type this and I feel a powerful urge to hand Taylor Swift a gold-plated gramophone. Random Access Memories is a paean to the big-tent pop albums of the past, but Red is an actual big-tent pop album of the present. Perhaps in 20 years, two French cyborgs will make an homage to Red that will win a Grammy.
Two things hurt Red: (1) It came out in October 2012, almost a year and a half before the 2014 Grammy ceremony. If it had come out seven months later, around the time Random Access Memories was released, I think it would have won easily. And, (2) Taylor Swift is only 24 years old. She’s lived as long as bands that will be eligible for induction in 2015 have been making albums. It’s the Jennifer Lawrence Rule: Awards shows don’t want to spoil young, prodigiously talented women with overpraise. People are betting on Swift to not suffer from a drug overdose, a plane crash, or some other career-derailing incident, and produce more award-worthy work in the future.
Possible obstacle: Swift is ostensibly a crossover country artist in the mold of Garth Brooks and Shania Twain, and Garth Brooks and Shania Twain aren’t getting into the Rock Hall. But judging from the direction she forged on Red, I’m guessing Swift will be moving even further afield from country in the years ahead, similar to how class of 2014 inductee Linda Ronstadt moved on from being a country rocker early in her career to a sax-heavy interpreter of prime-era Elvis Costello songs.
So The Lord is suffering the same fate as JLaw
It's okay, She is still young, plenty more awards to win.
I don't know much about SE Asia or Japan,
but she could definitely have at least four dates in mainland china, 2 in taiwan, 2 in hong kong
And they will 100% sell out she really has that fanbase round here
