how does this compare to the new Aphex Twin?

Google says it sold about 23,000 copies first week.

LMAO. Is that from The Voice? Has she been any good on it? I stopped watching a few cycles ago.

This performance will slay half of this thread at least.

The oh thing is terrible, even worse during her iheartradio performance. It's so generic.

 

[Tuck]

No surprise. She is terrible live. Just terrible.*

*I've never been to her concerts, but I've seen videos of her live before and it sounds awful.

Love Story is actually not the easiest track to sing live due to the breathing required. Playing the piano probably didn't help either.

She sounds decent singing Treacherous here:

First week sales = 1.287 million

Wow! Is this the highest opening week sales for a female artist?

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

She's never been that good live, but the awkward positioning (looking down) probably didn't help. I thought her Grammys performance of All Too Well wasn't bad (head-banging aside).

Second

1.319 million is still the reigning queen

 

[FFP2]

I'm only on the second listen but I still prefer Red :-(

 

[Mau ®]

Got tickets for the Arlington stop. So excited (even if it's basically a year away lol).

Who else bought tickets?

After having some problems right when they went on sale and by the time I fixed the problems finding most of the good tickets gone, I decided to risk it and try again in the general public sale next week. Wish me luck.

 

[uncleniccius]

I got pre-release tickets for London - premium tickets! it's going to be awesome.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

So after listening to 1989 almost every day for the past week or so, I think Red is better. That said, it's still a great album.

Favourites:
Blank Space
Style
Out of the Woods
Clean
Wonderland

New Blank Space video! https://screen.yahoo.com/pop/blank-space-001424201.html

 

[tamaster92]

Album is a odd one, its very different but still good.

I'm about half and half on songs i love and songs i don't like much.

That being said New Romantics is like fooking incredible. Fell in love with it so much

for a pop song her first albums were SO GOOD, I miss old britney.

 

[JoeNut]

i am becoming a bit obsessed with this woman.

New Blank Space video! https://screen.yahoo.com/pop/blank-space-001424201.html

Looks like they leaked it early.

That scene where she bites the guy's lip though...

 

[CapitalismSucks DonkeyBalls]

Shake it Off and Out of the Woods are the only good songs on the entire album.

At certain times she does a bad impression of Imogen Heap and other times she's trying to be Miley Cyrus. I really tried to give this album a chance, but it's just generic electro-pop all around. Disappointed.

Oh my god. I fucking love it.

 

[rtcn63]

Anyone notice the goat or something in the Blank Space video? That has to be intentional.

LMAO at MILEY and electro pop

Schedule that ear appointment pronto

 

[forrest]

Didn't she do some work with Imogen recently? That's what my wife was mentioning. I'm not really up on Taylor Swift, but I love me some Imogen Heap. If they are working together, then that says a lot about Taylor's skills imo.

There are all sorts of animals in it. I actually hadn't noticed the goat or whatever by that point.

They wrote "Clean" together.

Oh, I thought it was an explicit reference to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLI4EuDckgM

 

[Oozer3993]

Blank Space is #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, making Taylor the first woman in the 56 year history of the chart to replace herself at #1 (Shake It Off was #1 last week) and only the 10th artist ever to do it.

Also 1989 has now passed 2 million copies sold in the US alone.

She will be the headliner for the Victoria's Secret Fashion show in December and will perform Blank Space on the AMAs on Sunday and the Voice on Tuesday.

And last, but not least, the Blank Space Experience App. For Android or iOS.

 

[Swag]

Listened to this album last week, I was pleasantly surprised, never took myself for much of a T Swift fan.

But damn she has some catchy hooks

And last, but not least, the Blank Space Experience App. For Android or iOS.

Anyone who enjoys the song should check this out. It's pretty neat.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

456 MB is the size of the Android app. Wow.

456 MB is the size of the Android app. Wow.

Better make sure you've got a lot of Blank Space on your HD.

Free up the space, check out the 3D video, and then delete the app.

Bravo.
