Taylor Swift :: The "Midnights" Era

[Alexis13]

Anti-Hero is up to #1 on German iTunes

It’s doing great there

It would be still on top 10 next week if It wasn’t for christmas songs

But I think It would be around top 30 on christmas season and then return to top 15 after It ends

Taylor Swift’s Midnights spends a fourth nonconsecutive week [at] No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart (dated Dec. 3) as it holds atop the list with 177,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. in the week ending Nov. 24 (down 13%), according to Luminate.

[...]

Of Midnights’ 177,000 equivalent album units earned, SEA units comprise 118,000 (down 16%, equaling 155.8 million on-demand official streams of the set’s tracks), album sales comprise 57,000 (down 4%) and SEA units comprise 2,000 (down 49%).

Total: 2,600,000

It needs to sell ~110k more than Bunny every week to become the best selling album of the year. Still wonder what about 3am physical version. They (she and her label) know the album is going to remain at #1 till the end of the year, so it might be released in early March before the tour starts.

1,465,000 pure sales for Midnights in the US so far.

Midnights CDs are 20% off on Taylor's US website.

The album will more than likely increase its pure sale this week due to Black Friday, additional stock, and now this.

The Christmas onslaught is of course pushing the secondary two songs further down the chart. Stormzy (14,895) and Cliff Richard (11,082) hold the top two in albums.

When it reaches top 10 on Radio Songs, they will release MV + some remixes to push it to #1, IMO.

8,022 units last Monday. Still very stable, so another 22k+ is on the table. I can see her outselling Cliff, but who knows. Stormzy - very low sales (14,895), but he's going to debut at #1 no matter what

Fifth week!

In the Nov. 18-24 tracking week, “Anti-Hero,” released on Republic Records, tallied 65.1 million radio airplay audience impressions (up 11%), 25.8 million streams (down 5%) and 12,000 sold (down 60%), according to Luminate.

The single rises 4-2 for a new best on the Radio Songs chart; holds at No. 2 after two weeks atop Streaming Songs; and falls to No. 2 after two weeks at the Digital Song Sales summit.

As “Anti-Hero” tops the Hot 100 for a fifth week, Swift solely scores her second-longest reign, passing the four-week rule of “Shake It Off” in 2014. Among her nine No. 1s, the two songs are bested only by the seven-week dominance of “Blank Space” in 2014-15.

Four weeks ago, “Anti-Hero” soared in atop the Hot 100, as Swift made historyas the first artist to monopolize the chart’s entire top 10 in a single week, with all tracks all from her new album Midnights. Meanwhile, of the 64 singles that have debuted atop the Hot 100, “Anti-Hero” is just the 12th to have spent at least its first five weeks on the chart at No. 1, and the first since BTS’ “Butter” led in its first seven weeks in June-July 2021 (before pushing its total to 10 nonconsecutive weeks in the top spot).

“Anti-Hero” additionally hits No. 1 on the Adult Pop Airplay chart, becoming Swift’s ninth leader, and first since “Willow” for three weeks in April-May 2021. Among all acts since the chart began in Billboard’s pages in March 1996, only Maroon 5 (15) and P!nk (10) have notched more No. 1s. (As “Anti-Hero” also rises 6-3 on Pop Airplay, fellow Midnights cut “Lavender Haze” bullets at No. 31 and debuts at No. 36 on Adult Pop Airplay, as it is now being promoted as the set’s second pop radio single. Concurrently, the album’s “Snow on the Beach,” featuring Lana Del Rey, debuts at No. 36 on Adult Alternative Airplay.)

How possible is that Anti Hero will be #1 next week? Do you think Mariah will have enough points to reclaim the #1 again?

I was hoping for a little more; her pure sales are consistent, but her streaming has dropped along with everyone else's due to Christmas. I guess her last chance to get a sizable boost till Christmas would be to put out the 3AM physicals.

[SerbianInLA]

It looks like she'll end up selling roughly 1.7 million in pure sales in the US this year.

Yep, without big pure sales she won't surpass Bad Bunny by the end of the year. She needs that 3am physicals or like 200k signed CDs...
