There were some whispers here and there about IDSB, so that sounds plausible. I can't see IDSB smashing without a remix like Bad Blood though. Could just be an attempt to cover the fact that they're just passing off their own speculation as anonymous leaks from inside sources though, since I'm pretty sure those are the same people that said IDSB was going to be next (when no-one else did)?

I really doubt anything from this era is going to turn into a big hit. For one the lack of promotion seems to be hurting this era. I totally getting wanting a break from media, but that's why Taylor had an year off after 1989, and to act like you can just drop an album and watch it do great without any promo means the album needs to have enough quality to stand on its own. Reputation is clearly not that album.
Add to this that a lot of fans find this reputation obsessed Taylor grating, and the tickets for the Tour are just unreasonably expensive (even with the announced opening acts) and I can see the way they are handling this era really hurting the next one. I guess is will also depend on the Grammys next year go (cause we all know how much value Taylor puts into that). For now I hope they decide to do at least minimal promotion for Delicate, to give it a fair chance as the song deserves!

I really don't know what is going to happen next album. I think it will depend heavily on if or how many Grammys she does/doesn't receive this up coming winter.
After Red, she changed up her whole sound because of that night (Rrrrrrandom Access Memories). I really wouldn't mind one more pop album, but I think she should venture back to more singer-songwriter tracks in the future. Pop radio is so fickle. Once you hit a certain age, you are out the door and normally that door is shut for good.

I think regardless of how this era has gone, Taylor is pretty much guaranteed to have another successful era by general standards. She has enough rabid fans to ensure at least another huge debut and a large amount of initial interest. Will she sell 1 million+ first week and have the best-selling album of the year? That's hard to say and really depends on the roll-out of next era. If she opens the next era with a universally-liked hit with a great video, I see no reason why she won't be able to stay on top or near the top of the game, but possibly not at the same level she previously has. For all people's worrying about Taylor's success, we have to remember that Reputation is a huge success and that lots of people are still veryl interested in Taylor even if they aren't totally feeling what she's doing at the moment. She's built a solid enough foundation that I can't imagine she'll fade into obscurity.

This is truly her 'she doesn't care what people think' video. I loved it.

This could very much rescue this era. The best video from Reputation thus far.

The video goes perfectly with the song. Loved it. I hope this does well for her!
Still hoping Don’t Blame Me can finish out the era.

The haters are out there trying to claim that Taylor copied the video from a Kenzo perfume ad.

The haters are out there trying to claim that Taylor copied the video from a Kenzo perfume ad. I can see the similarities but it's a bit of a reach. It seems no matter what she does someone will find something to call her out on. This feels the closest to 1989 TS we have seen this era and I'm here for it. She's just so much more relatable like this.

Unless this bitch goes to the Netherlands I won't be able to see her live :'( Is there any chance that she will add additional dates in Europe? I don't know what happened in the 1989 tour regarding this.

I think it's possible, the most likely city she'd add IMO is Paris, followed by Milan or Rhine-Ruhr region. I wouldn't rule out Barcelona, Madrid or Amsterdam but I don't think it's very likely. Based off her North American schedule though, looks like she might have decided to do only a small number of shows, so I can still see her skipping Mainland Europe entirely and deciding UK/Ireland is good enough.
I'd be surprised if she doesn't do anything at all in Asia though. I think there's potential for only a few shows in Europe and Latin America that match her $10m/show revenue in North America but maybe as much 30 shows in Asia if she's able to get good collaboration with China. I doubt she'd do that many in Asia but she'd be snubbing a lot of fans pretty hard if she doesn't do a show in Tokyo, Singapore and at least one in China.

She's really really big in Asia. She could easily sell out 2 nights in Tokyo.

This Is What You Came For came on shuffle right now and eventhough Rih sounds divine on it, I'm crying at the thought of having a version with Tay's vocals only and no, I don't use that piano version she performed some time ago. The little 'oooo-ooooh's of hers they kept on it are such a tease. Why couldn't her petty ass do a good thing for once and kept an instant EDM megahit for herself? Even its lyrical content is very much in line with the themes on Reputation. I actually think that it perfectly combines both her big reputation ("...everybody's watching her...") and the fact that she immediately fell in love with that new guy she met ("...but she's looking at you...") in such a great, non-explicit way which is the exact opposite of the first 3 singles of Rep and their eventual cold shoulder reception from the GP.

I really love the Delicate video. It is so well done and fun to watch. Great job, Taylor.

The release of "Delicate" has truly gotten me to throw "Reputation" back into high rotation. I am listening to it constantly, and falling in love with it all over again.
Also, "Don't Blame Me" and "Dress" are pure magic, but I digress.

“This Love” is such an underrated gem. Her worst song in my opinion. She has a slew of other songs much worse IMO. "Stay Stay Stay" comes to mind immediately, for example.

Her worst song in my opinion. Y’all really loving some basic ass pseudo 80’s Blonde b-side ballad? I can’t. OOTW, Wildest Dreams, Clean are all superior
