I still dont know most of the lyrics. I really didnt search for them yet and i dont have them on my Piste 1-19 leak

Surely you have remembered the lyrics by heart if you listen to it enough

Why are you still using the leaked version though? You can easily find the pirate m4a iTunes version on Google

Wait did she promote in the UK? How did it suddenly jump to #1 on iTunes?! I'm so late!

It just started rising in sales and then middle of last week it just leaped up to the top of UK iTunes. It went no 1 for a few hrs then was dethroned by Take That's new song. Then Union J went top with their song released on Sunday, but BS is now back at no 1 since yesterday.

Taylor's didn't really promote the song yet in the UK. She was in that BBC Radio youtube video singing the song with Greg James in the car, but she has not sung it on UK TV yet.

Swift's return to No. 1 is powered by 339,000 total album equivalent units in the week ending Nov. 30. Of that sum, the majority is pure album sales (281,000) with the bulk of the rest (58,000) comprised of track equivalent album sales (TEA). A tiny slice of her overall figure is from streaming equivalent albums (SEA).

281k? SLAY.... 2.5m

Swift continues to ride high on the Digital Songs chart, where she has two songs in the top 10: "Blank Space" (holding at No. 1, with 342,000 downloads; up 13 percent) and "Shake It Off" (8-10 with 93,000; up 12 percent).

Is this its third week above 300k??

1989's album sales now stand at 2.5 million after five weeks on sale.

The album is also No. 1 on the Top Album Sales chart, which maintains the old Billboard 200's methodology of ranking pure album sales.

This "Blank Space" performance. I love how instead of going falsetto She just shouts louder in every live performance. So piercing.

Its 281,000

339,000 includes Track-Equivalent-Albums (10 tracks = 1 album) and Streams-Equivalent-Albums (1500 On-Demand Streams = 1 album)
