Taylor Swift feat. Post Malone - "Fortnight"

[gomichaelgo]

New remix and acoustic on streaming. They are really good

[Rhythm Nation]

But… why? To help secure another week on top of the albums chart?

I think Jack works fine with Taylor.. it's just about them working together to make something a bit more upbeat along the lines of Cruel Summer. I think TTPD is a masterpiece but the next album should be 80% upbeat.

I think if you reduce TTPD down to about 13 tracks you could walk away with a really upbeat album!

1) Fortnight
2) My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys
3) The Tortured Poets Department
4) Down Bad
5) So Long London
6) But Daddy I Love Him
7) Fresh Out the Slammer
8) Guilty as Sin
9) I Can Do It With a Broken Heart
10) Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me
11) Fresh Out the Slammer
12) The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived
13) So High School

I would assume there isn't much interest towards these anyway - only thing that matters is the availability of signed album variants.

Of course when they up the tempo they use production that drowns out the vocals. Smh. lol

I can't cut any of the songs because I love them all so much. Lol it's honestly her among her finest and best work, but I think she needs to go very upbeat along the lines of Cruel Summer/State Of Grace.

Oh, I am not a fan of that remix. I'll just play the album version at 1.25x on YouTube.

I would assume to prolonge now waning interest in "Fortnight" until they release it's followup. Basically a little morcel to keep us feeding. lol

She needed to attack

[chickythelittlechicken]

#17 (+4) Global Spotify
#20 (+6) US Spotify

[musiclife]

This is literally going nowhere. It can't move up from #5 cause 1 and 2 are still so far ahead and aren't dropping fast enough.. and Bar Song is coming up fast behind this. Time to can this... #5 on pop and #1 on the hot 100 is good enough. Just send ANYTHING else.

Oh wow this is stil alive? Her power lol.

[Rhythm Nation]

So when all is said and done, will we consider this a bigger radio hit than LWYMMD and thus top 4/5 among her lead singles after the giants SIO, Love Story, Anti Hero and maybe WANEGBT? (Not including IION)

Not too bad I say…

Hardly. If we're referring to just Top 40 radio, WANEGBT definitely ended up bigger, spending 11 weeks in the top 10 and peaking at #2. Fortnight has peaked at #5 and so far spent 9 weeks in the top 10, but probably won't last much longer. Even LWYMMD isn't so clear, as though it only spent 8 weeks in the top 10, it of course peaked at #1. Thus, Fortnight might not even end up amongst her top five lead singles at pop radio, but this is of course a very narrow distinction, as many of her biggest singles, as with all artists, were not amongst her leads. From You Belong With Me, I Knew You Were Trouble, Blank Space, Style, Bad Blood, Delicate, Cruel Summer, Karma, and even Lavender Haze, she easily has a dozen other songs that were overall bigger on pop radio.

[fearlessarrow]

And so it begins I guess. Top 10 on AC though!

I was checking this song on Wikipedia and was surprised to find it had already gone to number one at HAC, only to be even more surprised to come back here almost out of the top ten less than 3 months after release! Does anyone have its full HAC run?

Yeah, this is probably among her top 5 biggest leads. It's a solid hit and has held on well in its own right even if it probably won't be one of her signatures.

[Marooned@Midnight]

I’m super happy that this song was released. It’s a fantastic addition to her singles discography. I personally would have done a pre-release lead single this time around - MBOBHFT. There’s no way fortnight wouldn’t have received the most attention on release week given the feature. So I think a lead launching the night she announced, with plans to transition to this as second single on release week, would have been ideal. Honestly though, it clearly worked out as good as it possibly could just the way she did it. The selfish Stan in me just wants to maximize the amount of videos we get from any given era.

I can't see this having the streaming legs that cardigan has. I'd honestly rank this below it and LWYMMD in terms of impact. Definitely a bigger deal than Tim McGraw and Willow and probably Mine. Me! is also well remembered for all the wrong reasons lol

[fearlessarrow]

"Fortnight" is done, while the followup "I Can Do It With A Broken Heart" re-enters the top 50 on Pop and HAC. The former reaches the top 10 on AC after 6 straight weeks at #11.
