With that said Up! only sold a little over 5 million copies but being a double album was certified diamond but it was nowhere near the sales of either Come On Over or The Woman in ME still respectable sales though

Taylor could get a diamond album if she would do a double-release.

One disc of normal, overproduced tracks and one disc of acoustic versions. Everybody wins.

I agree with CFC , plus remember that those are all Pop singers , and Pop fans are VERY temporary , they support you and make you feel like you're ruling the industry and then they get sick of you and simply never listen to your music again .

The way the Speak Now era ended was great , Ours hit #1 and it was a favourite by everyone in every age .

Country fans are solid , they'll stick with you because you grew up with them , and also Taylor had big Country hits with Speak Now , more than any other era of hers , fans will stick with Taylor , and don't forget the exposure that The Hunger Games gave her , with the new fans from the Hunger Games , Solid Country fan base , and the new hits coming up ( Bob song , Justin song ) Taylor's sales will remain steady

The album will go at least 3 times platinum in the US .

I actually think this could affect her negatively but we will have to wait and see. The Bieber song scares me alot more for the negative impact that it could have on her alot more than B.O.B but both songs aren't doing much for her reputation as having fans outside of teeny boppers and crazy pop fans which she does have fans outside of that group but these songs will reaffirm that attitude in the people who don't like her and maybe even sway some fans away from supporting her. I think 3 times platinum is the minimum she will reach and hopefully she goes 4-6 platinum

I've noticed this happening with a lot of old albums.

Albums with over 100 minutes are double album which means each sale counts as two albums by the RIAA.

Better idea One disc of a normal album and one disc of unreleased tracks I would love that so much

We'll have to wait and see though , I mean her part in Both Of Us wasn't really bad , she didn't rap , curse , sing about partying

And the way she was singing with a Ukulele / Guitar in the Background was nice .

the Bieber song ... well Selena said it's very upbeat yet Acoustic , and who knows , maybe Taylor will make him look better as an Artist .

I don't think that Taylor or her team are too dumb to ruin her career , and it will really all depend on her first single , lets wait and see ..

Yep it also has to have two discs and be marketed as a double album. Almost everyone does that however the Red Hot Chili Peppers claimed their double album as one album and the 2nd disc was a bonus disc so it was only certified as a normal album but 99% certify as a double album

I'm thinking about doing a best album thread where you nominate your favorite albums and than have them all battle it out based off the number of votes but I need someone to help me out with the thread when I'm busy any takers?

That sounds like the kind of thing that should be in the Games section...

Promo singles:
White Horse, You're Not Sorry, Fearless.
Back To December, Mean, Speak Now.

The bolded songs were later released as singles.

Actually, the Fearless promo singles were You Belong With Me, Fearless & You're Not Sorry... White Horse wasn't one of them

Everyone vote for Taylor!

Music superstar Taylor Swift has signed with IMG for representation in worldwide marketing, endorsements, tour sponsorships and licensing.
She continues to be represented by WME in other areas, including film, television, books and touring.
Swift has won six Grammy Awards and sold more than 20 million records worldwide. The singer's eponymous first album was released in 2006 when she was 16 and featured five singles that went platinum, including "Tim McGraw" and "Teardrops on My Guitar."
She has since released a handful of other full-length studio albums, including Fearless (2008) and Speak Now (2010). She also contributed a song -- "Safe & Sound" -- to this year's Hunger Games soundtrack.
Swift has pursued acting in recent years, appearing in Valentine's Day (2010) and lending her voice to the March animated film The Lorax. She also has hosted Saturday Night Live and appeared on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation -- both in 2009.
Media company IMG has various divisions, including a television unit that distributes and produces sports programs, a brand consulting group and a talent representation group, which manages the careers of athletes, executives, actors and musicians.
The company was founded by Mark McCormack and was headed by Ted Forstmann until his death late last year.
Swift will be represented by a team led by Alan Zucker, who is senior vp of IMG's clients division and managing director of its talent marketing division.
