New Taylor Swift song from The Hunger Games soundtrack is on iTunes now. Not sure why they released it on a Friday, but I wouldn't be surprised if it gets the top spot sometime soon. So it can be on the top by Sunday, then all those gift cards holding people will see it there. Gaga is also releasing a new song Sunday. And Katy just released her remix. All those people dying to take advantage of the Christmas shopping. I'm actually surprised it took labels 5 years to notice how big next week is (or am I?).

Safe and Sound up to #10.
I'd be so happy if Adele managed to get to #1 on the Christmas week. It'd be awesome (or at least end up above SAIKI).

I like Safe & Sound, quite a different sound for Taylor Swift but she blended well with The Civil Wars. I hope it will do well in the long run

Well this is a much better soundtrack single from Taylor than "Today Was a Fairytale." I actually really hope this is the Christmas #1. (Sorry, Adele.)

I didn't know who "The Civils War" was prior to Taylor talking about them on twitter and collaborating with them now. This is great exposure for them, they are quite talented.

So has Taylor now set herself up for the Xmas week Hot 100 #1?

Considering her singles always last on top from 2 to 4 days, I'd say it's possible, though she may end up falling to #2 or #3 before Monday.

Her songs are always frontloaded though, and she's going on 3 days of sales. I don't think it'll be enough.

Taylor will probably no longer be #1 by Monday and will tumble down the charts around then regardless; people tend to spend their giftcard money on songs that are either currently big radio hits or ones that were over the last few months/year, not some random new Tswift soundtrack song.

We don't know that yet ;). This is a pretty unique situation going into December 25th, and something unprecedented might happen. Why not buy a brand-new song by a massive artist with your new iTunes money?

Taylor just posted a huge drop on iTunes, if she keeps falling at that rate, she'll be out of the #1 spot by tonight.

LMFAO should be back to #1 in 3-4 hours. Then LMFAO pretty much has free reign to be the Christmas #1.
