"I Knew You Were Trouble." spawned the goat movement and Taylor is used over and over in memes about relationships.
I wouldn't say she's made no cultural impact, but it is clear that if she were to disappear today, she'd most likely go the way of Paula Abdul.

Essentially. If she were to disappear right this second and never have a hit again, she'd end up like Paula Abdul in the sense that everyone would forget her until her name happened to pop back up somewhere for some reason (not necessarily as a judge on a reality show, but any similar case would do).

I don't understand what's so special about Bad Romance's video. I watched it when it came out, and it was just like any other pop music video to me. I think it's just because it got so many Youtube views that it got her fans excited, so they started running around saying it's iconic.
From this generation, the music videos to Love the Way You Lie, Sexy and I Know It, Somebody That I Used to Know, Gangnam Style, Call Me Maybe, THOSE are the ones that will go down in history imo. They did something different, something that got the world fascinated, or made people laugh, rather than the usual "dancing and holding poses in different costumes in different scenes" that we've seen over and over again for decades.
The videos with simple but unique, charming ideas are better than those videos that certain artists do which are just normal pop videos but just more complex and extravagant.

Sorry, but the "Call Me Maybe", "Somebody That I Used To Know", "Sexy & I Know It" videos are EXTREMELY basic compared to "Bad Romance".

Taylor Swift is massively successful but I have yet to see her make a truly significant impact on the cultural front. That's not to trivialize what she's accomplished at all but I don't think Taylor Swift quite DEFINES an era of pop culture like Gaga, Britney, Madonna, MJ etc did. "You Belong With Me" back in 2009 spawned many youtube covers of the song. Something people tend to forget nowdays anyway with Taylor having a pop sound recently and that her roots are in the country industry,not in the pop industry.But she has done quite a few things that she will remembered for Pop Culture-wise.Her 2009 SNL Hosting appearance is still talked about to this day as one of the best SNL Hosts of the last five years. Taylor may not do what Gaga,Britney,Katy Perry,Rihanna etc. do but she has made a impact in the industry in a different way without controversy.

It's funny to me how people have different perspectives of the music industry.
IMO, i was shocked to see that sales We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together were that high. Compared to all the other songs that have sold 3.5+, I thought it was a basic song that had little impact. If anything, I was thinking that song sold maybe high 2.0 or low 3's. Songs of Swift's that were massive were Love Story, You Belong With Me, and I Knew You Were Trouble- Not WANEGBT.
As for Bad Romance, I mean there are very few videos that were as massive and had as much as a cultural impact as that video. Maybe Gangnam Style. But really Call Me Maybe & Love The Way You Lie? Those videos won't be remembered- it will be the choruses of those songs that will be remembered.

LOL @ the notion of Taylor going the way of Paula Abdul. Even if Taylor dropped off the face of the Earth tomorrow, she's already found more success than Paula Abdul did in her prime (save a few Billboard Hot 100 #1 hits). We're four albums deep into her career, all of which experienced consistently phenomenal sales, she's produced hit after hit on multiple formats, and she's one of the biggest touring draws in the industry. Paula Abdul had two successful eras and then faded into oblivion. If we were on the Fearless era and she wasn't selling out stadium after stadium the comparison might be a bit more justified.

I don't follow this chart so I am not 100% sure but doesn't the Social 50 chart measure an artists CURRENT impact on pop culture?
In my opinion, all other conjecture on who is bigger than who is just speculation.
Taylor Swift may be considered a pop artist by some but she has country roots, something Paula Abdul did not have. Country artists tend to have longer life spans than pop artists

Two days in a row, Pharell is on the two biggest gainers in airplay. Good time to be him.
By the way, anyone else think "Blurred Lines" sounds a lot like Madonna's "Give it 2 Me" in terms of instrumentation?

Pharell produced Give It To Me also, right?

^Yes (along with Madge). Since that did next to nothing at U.S. radio, this is his way of getting it out there.

It's actually picking up speed on pop right now. Time will tell if that has to do with the turn around from Memorial Day weekend or if it's really blowing up now.

Which is annoying because Give it To Me is way better than 4 Minutes (and I love 4 minutes). Same thing with Give Me All.... and Girl Gone Wild, love both but the latter is way better (and the video is awesome)

I still think of "Blurred Lines" as an obvious homage to Marvin Gaye's "Got To Give It Up." Lots of similarities.

What?! It's not a credited sample? When I hear "Blurred Lines", I immediately want to turn on Aaliyah's version of "Got To Give It Up".

Love seeing #Beautiful rise toward the top 10. If and when larger stations hop on board and put this in heavy rotation another surge will begin. All the songs above her have been out longer as well.

#Beautiful is finally about to outdo its airplay from its first week, proving that it's not just a CC-deal hit.

Yeah the infamous one day CC deal talk. I think the song has performed quite well since that first day. It rebounded nicely. It's pretty cool to be a fan of someone 23 years in the business and still making nice chart gains. Hopefully she moves up a few spots on this weeks hot 100
