Charts, impact, radio, viral moment, etc all combined… which was the bigger hit?

It’s pretty clearly CS at this point, and that’s not even accounting for the superior longevity it will have for years over AH.

AH was truly her first H I T since forever and basically opened the door for LH, Karma, CS and IION when it comes to radio. I guess you can make a case for both, but for now my vote goes to AH.

God I don't know this is really hard. Something tells me that "Anti-Hero" will ultimately be the more recognizeable over time, so I'll vote that.

I hope Cruel Summer goes back to #1 once the Christmas songs all die off.

I hope Cruel Summer goes back to #1 once the Christmas songs all die off. She can easily drop the Tour MV or an actual MV for it and do some damage. She never dropped vinyls for the single either…

Both songs are massive but "Cruel Summer" does feel like more of a moment so I gave that song my vote (for now).

I hope Cruel Summer goes back to #1 once the Christmas songs all die off. Jack is simply too powerful but the fact that it’s returning to #2 in January leaves me speechless

I think we'll have to wait for after Cruel Summer falls off the chart (in 2035). I still feel Blank Space 'feels' bigger, but that could also be because there is a video attached to it

"Cruel Summer" currently feels bigger, but as irice22 mentioned, I think over time "Anti-Hero" will be more remembered/impactful. I'll pick "Cruel Summer" though.

Sorry, I read that as biggest Taylor hit! In which case, Cruel Summer chart wise but I feel Anti Hero impact wise because of the hook

‘Cruel Summer’ will be the bigger hit but ‘Anti-Hero’ definitely had the most impact. Both are massive.

Anti Hero is low key already forgotten aside from “hi it’s me”, while Cruel Summer is becoming a seasonal classic and I’ve been in multiple general public spaces where everyone’s belted the chorus and bridge word for word.

Other than "Hi, It's me"? Aka the hook and chorus of the whole song? 🤣 Are you just pulling this assertion out of your behind? Because where are you getting that it's already forgotten?
