This is so very sad. I was incredibly bummed to see Carly and Michael divorce but this is shocking. The way he spoke about her and how he knew they were going to get married was always so sweet.

Per billboard, forced album bundles will no longer count on chart. Opt ins will count. Needed change. But with how many county artists don’t stream well, we might see country album sales tank for a bit.

Kane Brown's Be Like That f/Khalid and Swae Lee was the most added song at Pop radio with 85 adds. It is now charting on MB and with that, we have Kane, Morgan, Kelsea and Gabby charting all at the same time, with Maren's song now went recurrent. If we look at Hot AC, we also have there Thomas/Reba/Hillary/Keith. Interesting that we now have all these crossovers and pop-only releases.

YEESSSSSS, she mentioned a couple months ago when she had to postpone her tour that she would be releasing a couple different live shows to streaming services for the first time so we could enjoy them in the meantime :) This must be the first!!

I was probably only maybe 12 when I went and even then I look nothing like that now lol (pretty sure I had eye glasses then as well). Anyways, I know what I'll be doing tomorrow evening

According to people who have already heard the album, they are comparing it to Red, saying its more of a return to country. Almost in the vein of “Safe and Sound.”

Apparently there are 8 different versions of the Taylor Swift album, coming out one week at a time? The heck is that about?

Just went to her website and on every deluxe edition everything is completely different other than the tracks. And I've seen dozens of people on twitter say they've bought them all. There should be an asterisk next to the numbers for this one. This is going to make a mockery of the album chart. Especially since there are also 8 different vinyl editions as well.

It's not like you need to buy all of them to get each song. Most people will buy 1. Her crazy fans will buy more (or all). Not sure what the problem is really. Her fans want to buy this type of stuff, and if you are just a "normal" fan, you can buy 1 and you're not missing out on anything. I mean, obviously she is doing it to try to maximize her album sales, but this is 100x better than how ticket bundles used to be for album sales.

It is different notes, different back, different disc. Right, but the point still stands - the average person is going to buy one. The Swifties will buy multiples (though I've seen plenty lamenting the fact that they can't afford to). I don't think the number of people buying all of them is going to make any bigger of a difference than a ticket bundle would have to her first week sales.
