I strongly believed that she wouldn’t release anything. God WHAT the hell is going on? New Christmas music, new film, that’s just wild.

I really want this to have playlist promo, and not end up with Beautiful Ghosts. That had literally no playlist reach.

Now am I insane to think there might be something more coming next week? Her birthday is on a Friday, she wouldn’t miss a chance to drop or tease something. If it isn’t more Christmas music, it’s going to be a trailer for her film or a new video.

Oh wow, didn't she tease a possible other album by the end of the year? Or was that the Cats soundtrack? I'd die if it was a surprise full Christmas album.

I don't think this or Mariah is going to #1.

I mentioned in the AIWFCIY thread, I don't think I see Taylor's song having more points than AIWFCIY on the week of Christmas. We don't know yet how hard Taylor is trying to push this but even with a push, radio and streaming favor the classics over newer songs. Also, the title sounds like it might lean country, which would limit its appeal.
If Taylor is truly shooting for a #1, it was smart of her to release it now, when the chart is weak enough for her to get by on curiosity factor and her name but before AIWFCIY reaches its peak. But really, Mariah's biggest threat is going to be The Weeknd. (I've let go of the idea of any Adele or Rihanna release)

Lmao, this song will not block AIWFCIY. Unless it’s a Taylor, RiRi, Adele collaboration. Probably only way all those predicting 2019 ‘wig’ snatching since January to get wish by end of year. :) Unless this is a killer pop song disguised as a Xmas tune, it’s no threat at all for the important chart week. ‘New’ Xmas songs just don’t work that way.

She wrote this song literally LAST weekend? Wow.
There's no way this is the record coming before the end of the year then, if the Lover Remixes aren't.
I can't think of anything else other than the TS8 lead? Since we just got the documentary date...

Okay. This is really amazing. Love the intro and then she transports you into a winter wonderland of pop.

This is fun. Any Christmas song- especially one that is about love and uptempo- is going to be... cute. :)
