ok but if this went #1 we'd get Billboard reporting that this is the first #1 song with the word 'fart' in the title, right? rooting for this for that alone!

Pretty standard start for a song with a radio deal (I just assume this had one).
Anyway, didn't debut in the top 200 on US Spotify.

New single is dropping next week so they can probably let this go now. #7 is a decent peak for a song that never took off on streaming stateside.

Could go either way with Billboard but could be Midnights first week outside the top 10.

For such a perfectly managed debut era, they really fumbled this one. Kinda reminds of Camila Cabello who had a great debut era and a messy second.
At the end of the day the material was well received and the demand for her tour was extremely high, so she'll be fine (Camila couldn't say the same).
Next steps would be to release the deluxe with the four bonus tracks and push one as a single, imo.

If those are the three covers I don't really like any of them, but second would be my favourite. I like the pose of the third but the framing/positioning is awkward. EDIT: Per her online store, the second photo is one of four limited variants. The other three are to be revealed. Target exclusive: So I think there's... standard, four limited editions, Target = 6 variants so far?

Okay but can we have like actual remixes please? Instrumental, yes. Acappella, yes. Extended version, yes. Extended version of the instrumental? Pushing it a little. Slowed down/Sped up? BIN THEM. That continues to be the worst, laziest trend. Call up Eric Kupper. Try David Morales if you want a 90's throwback sound. Hell, go full meta and drag Shep Pettibone out of retirement. People troll the Willow and Anti-Hero remixes (deservedly) but at least those were actual remixes! The Elvira and Roosevelt remixes are still my go-tos over the originals.

It's cute but her voice sounds so thin for someone who we know has a strong voice? Her vocals don't match the energy of the instrumental, imo. It'll be a gay hit for sure tho.

Apparently "Slut!" originally featured The 1975, per someone who received a vinyl with the original credits?
Not sure how she would have turned enough vinyls around after removing him and there's no actual snippet of the song yet so who knows.

I just remembered the Late Night CD edition of Midnights was sold on her webstore a few weeks ago with a ship date of December 15 (this tracking week). Guess it was a very small number of copies available since the increase from last week is negligible (so far).

62k for Tate isn't far off from what Dua opened with for Future Nostalgia, and that was with multiple hits under her belt. Great start for her.

Everything had a bad update today bc of Jingle Ball or w/e but I don't expect much more movement until the new year.

I dunno what everyone was expecting on Spotify but this is on par with her general performance on the platform lately, no?
She seems to be doing well on Apple Music so with the physical sales (of the half album) I'm sure she can crack 100k.

Seems like Taylor got 5 in the top 10 with pretty safe margins!

Hope she tacks it onto the album eventually. Or will this count towards Midnights since it's on one physical version? idk lol

Ok but... "cardigan" is gonna be there no??? Presumably "cardigan" and "no body, no crime" are being saved to be exclusive to whichever streamer buys the streaming rights.

This is great, and love that the video is an amalgamation of 2000's pop girl videos.

That’s technically the Late Night edition, which is missing Glitch and Paris, but adds You’re Losing Me and the Karma and SOTB remixes (no Hit Different). Previously exclusively available at her concerts.
Wondering if she’s pushing for #1 the week of December 15? Hopefully proper 3AM/complete collection physicals are coming too.

This has really grown on me, especially from the second verse on.
Also currently going viral on TikTok.
