We all know it's because it costs 14$

Seriously , sooo greedy .

Its more that she didn't perform. Performances matter alot more than awards now winning EOTY and performing would have been huge but just winning EOTY does very little for sales but it does help her legacy

Taylor always say that her favorites are the ones that she has finished writing the fastest. ie Love Story and THE STORY OF US (so that's why it is a single)

So if that's the case, she must really, I mean really, really hate SPARKS FLY (2 years in the making)

Everything is so clear now.

No .

Taylor said the songs that make the albums are the ones that she just finished writing and the ones that happen fast , they're their favourite ones at THAT time ( the making of the album )

Well yeah :/

Why would they release a bonus song that didn't even made the cut of Speak Now? Simply because its country radio-friendly. Of course they did not release Speak Now or Enchanted to country because it would break the streak.

especially when you consider the album has been out for a year and a half

i think its max. sales would probably be around 4.5 million.

I wanted it to reach 5 million

Yeah , I mean iTunes sales aren't what decide her position on the Hot 100

I always get surprised because physical sales are way stronger
I notice how sometimes Speak Now would be no.70 on iTunes and in the 40's on Billboard

Bieber was unlucky because We Are Young is so huge right now...

Taylor could still do it, so long as there's no WAY-type song dominating the chart at the time.

Please no 007 by Adele during lead single!

Maybe or maybe she had the idea for the video in her head. I think comparing it to Katy is a joke tbh Katy had 69 cent deals and remixes. All Taylor did was release a song from the deluxe version now a comparison with Nicki Minaj (Super Bass) would have worked better jmo

Sparks Fly didn't really take '' 2 years in the making ''

It's as simple as Taylor writing the song , then forgot about it until fans wanted it
she went and re-visited the song and probably finished editing it in like 2 days


I bet If you put how much it took Sparks Fly to be ready , the days wouldn't cross 5 .

I kinda hope that's true. I mean, Last Kiss is one of her best songs and it's sad, but I prefer happier ones, like Hey Stephen, Our Song, ENCHANTED, etc.

I would love for there to be a happy ukulele song on the album (like Fearless at the Speak Now Tour). Maybe there will be one since she played it at her concerts

I didn't know Enchanted is supposed to be feel-good. It makes me sooo sad (enchantingly sad)

Have Taylor ever said which of her songs she like the best? If not, I will pretend that her favourite is Enchanted, as that was the original title she wanted.

I believe it's "Dear John", she brought it up when Leslie Stahl asked her which song was her fave to perform.

+1

Also saying how lines from the song are her favourite lines she ever wrote .

agreed. TV performances were at its minimum for the Speak Now era after the first few weeks of release

A desperate move may I say, as desperate as Capitol's strategies in TD, but it works.

So you mean to say she didn't have any ideas for an SN video or any other tracks from the normal edition in her head?

i still think it was the labels idea for wanting to release the song to radio since they needed something to recoup from the mess.

Fan favourite down the s***hole.

She needs a low era for her career. Doing better on the long run.
