Wait, Billboard also estimates the sales at 425-450k.
It's just impossible that the preorders are counted, AATB sold 239k last week and keeps getting bigger, and Taylor will get the boost from the VMA perf.
nnn @ everyone talking about ships and roses but missing this
And I remember think "89" is such a weird number of finalists...
Also, I just realized that that brobible article #exposed Taylor. He said they were in a studio designed to look like an apartment but this girl acted like they were at the top of the Empire State Building.
Some critics are reaching to the most unnecessary places with SIO. It is meant to be a light-hearted, fun, and simple song that makes you feel good, that's all
Oh well, she keeps winning and will shake them off
HDD/Billboard tend to be a bit conservative with their estimates. If they over-estimate something like they did with Applause/Artpop they look fools. They also predicted Roar would only open with 400K initially and it opened with 557K so take what they say with a grain of salt. Kworb said he can usually give accurate predictions by Thursday night so lets see what his site says then
Hey, hey, hey while some may have been getting down and out about the lairs and dirty, dirty critics, we could have been getting down to this. Positive. Review.
Is SIO even getting as bad reviews as WANEGBT got? Fairly certain WANEGBT had a worse public reaction too (especially considering she called it country )
I'm dancin' on my own.
I make the moves up as I go.
And that's what they don't know.
the absolute GENIUS in this lyric. she's been scrutinized for two years and they've been saying that shes so lonely and pathetic without a boyfriend, but she effortlessly shakes them off by saying shes single and in control. I can't at this song.
This feels very ‘now,’ and ‘now’ might not work in six months

I’m not a huge T.Swift fan, but this is easily the least catchy single she’s put out. The bridge sounds like an Avril Lavigne break and that’s not a good thing. It appears Ms. Swift is running out of ideas

Not to be that guy, but throughout that whole song, I just watched and counted down until the end. The few things that made Taylor Swift’s music close to tolerable, are all but gone. No more guitar, no country melodies, just nasty, self-indulgent pop. Her fans will either feel completely abandoned or feel obligated to love it because it’s her. No in between.
Now, instead of the girl who got her heart broken, she’s got that cocky, “they didn’t matter” attitude that is laughable. Regardless, she’ll get plays, and get attention, and this will be huge, whether people actually like it or not.
The STAN.
Even the more positive comments were lukewarm at best.
we dumb
