What the actual **** @ that thread. Avril could never write something like All Too Well, Dear John, Fifteen, Enchanted, Last Kiss, Mine, etc. The Lord destroys her when it comes to songwriting.
August: State Of Grace
December: Red
April: I Knew You Were Trouble (and Highway Don't Care)
August: We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together/Begin Again
January: Holy Ground
April: Stay Stay Stay/Everything Has Changed
World pays attention to hyped-up lead single. Turns out to be some indie-rock masterpiece thing that everyone hails. Gets lots of alternative play, following 'Safe & Sound' Taylor has built up some sort of indie credibility and everyone goes out and buys the album despite a lack of pop radio support. Radio 2 in the UK gets its life to it.
'Red' for the crossover smash and again UK Radio 2 (demographic of old people who'll buy albums) support it. The 're-e-ed' electronic bits hint at what's to come so it's not too jarring when the next single is...
'I Knew You Were Holy' smashes pop radio and She crosses over from Radio 2 to Radio 1 in the UK. The world sees a new side to Her but knows She hasn't changed too much and gone 'too pop' because they've just witnessed a rock masterpiece and a country-pop masterpiece.
'WANEGOD' further smashes pop radio and keeps Her going on Radio 1. The world is stanning to the heavens and can't wait to purchase tour tickets (She's already sold out all US dates off the back of Her 'mature' masterpiece State Of Grace and country/teen-friendly 'Red'). 'Begin Again' keeps Her alive on country radio so they can't be too mad (especially seeing as the first two singles weren't offensively overtly pop to them either, so their pride is intact).
'Holy Ground' reminds Her new-found alternative stans what She's about after the two MM singles and diminishes any 'lol maybe She's the problem' backlash after IKYWH/WANEGOD. She performs it at the Grammys where She sweeps all the awards. Pop radio are still thirsty for the Lord after the 2 MM singles smash pop radio records, so they give some play to this indie-rock number, showing pop radio listeners again another side to Her.
'Stay Stay Stay' gives country radio a funny, upbeat spring single. 'Everything Has Changed' gives Her a 3rd UK Radio 1 smash hit with the combined power of Taylor and Ed's names, and shows UK a different side to Her. The era ends with Red at 20 million copies sold, indicating that everything has indeed changed.
Oh, yeah. GU's Red era plan is much much better than whatever the hell bmr thinks they're doing.
State of Grace not being the lead single was the grossest oversight... It would've been such a huge smash from the hype alone, not to mention the radio deals and the song's quality bringing in so many people.
