I don't want Speak Now to get released as a single 
It's cool to have 1 song being certified and that wasn't a single
AND , Sparks Fly was destined for greatness
but did it get that ? Absolutely not  !!!
Mean was bigger of a hit , BMR wasted one of the songs that could've made Taylor even bigger
I will never forgive them for doing that  |
It's all BMR fault! They're playing toooo safe. "Sparks Fly" and "Mean" could have been the "You Belong With Me" and "White Horse", respectively of this era.

Adele's fans & the general public disagree with us.

Think about the long-term.
Having #1 singles is nice, but I prefer to have the albums keep selling.

To be honest, it's a really tough choice for me, although I'm a Swifty already. I think SFTTR's bridge and Adele's vocal performance is to die for. And Haunted is just UH-mazing, I don't feel like it's over-produced at all.
So what's your favorite Adele & Taylor song/s?

Well , Mean was sort of the White Horse of Speak Now
Mean actually had a bigger Audience impression peak than White Horse
They both won 2 Grammys and were certified Platinum
Mine could've been the Love Story of SN , Sparks Fly could have been even bigger than YBWM
I'm not mad because this Era wasn't as big as Fearless , I'm mad because it had more potential songs ..

Mine < Love Story imo. For me, it's Enchanted >>>>>>>>>> Love Story >> Mine
If they really were testing dual releases, it should have been "Better Than Revenge" instead, TSOU music video is the greatest off this era though. SF music video is worse than Fearless music video, just because it was a rip-off, tour video again?? Lazy.

Hmm Adele would be Rolling in the Deep and Rumor has it. I also kind of like Someone like you and Chasing Pavements the rest of her songs are just so-so for me but I do respect that she writes her music. and Taylor well I can't say my #1 cause I'm doing a countdown on another forum and don't want to ruin it but Enchanted, Safe and Sound, Haunted, White Horse, You Belong with Me, Should've said No, and Back to December are all amazing

Every single word you said. SFTTR is my fave though, and "Don't You Remember", just because it's very similar to what Taylor would do. Sorry for spoiling it, anyway, you might want to wait for "Eyes Open"? I sense a "Haunted"-esque feel to it.

Why thank you, Taylor Connect sucks a lot and I can't get in at ukmix.org for some reason.
If "Enchanted" was the first single. . . . NO. 1 DEBUT on Hot 100.

Don't worry you didn't spoil anything most of the people there have an idea about my top 10 but the #1 is still a surprise  and yeah I think Eyes Open could have been a top 10 countender oh well I can't alter the chart now lol btw I miss seeing her perform this song

She also played "I'd Lie" there. "Tim McGraw", the song that started it all, I wouldn't have chosen any first single for her, anyway, I have its original piano demo! Who wants a copy? In exchange of something of course
