Meanwhile when you look at the top singles, they spent the same amounts of week at number one as other years, maybe even more cause more artists topped the chart longer than other years, but I guess consumption and competition was low whatever man

Is Sabrina bigger than Taylor Swift in the UK?

No not yet but Short n Sweet is probably bigger than any taylor album ever in the UK

All you can do is sit back and laugh you guys

In an 18~ month period, 4 songs hit 69+ weeks on Hot 100. If you can find any other period in the last literally 10-15+ years where that happened I'll be shocked. I don't think there was an 18 month period where even 2 songs hit 69+ lol

Glass Animals of all songs hit 91 weeks lol. I don't think you guys realise how crazy that is at all. Here's Bruno Mars's weeks on hot 100 for his number 1s: 56, 52, 48, 39, 36, 36, 35, 28

Taylor didn't even get a #1 single from TTPD (#3, #4, #8), Sabrina just got 3 from her album

do you live in the UK?

Yeah Taylor must've been upset about that, especially when TTPD became the highest selling album in one week in the UK since 2017.
She must've been real upset about no #1s

Fortnight out now ?

It was the highest selling album since 2017 or some s*** yeah, not ever though lol

#1s is generally seen as more impressive & recognisable than a silly record like that though, but I know you're trying to nitpick and move the goal posts as usual :p

Oh s*** my bad, ok then yeah Fortnight, 1 week at #1

It's a silly record to have the highest first week in a country in almost a decade?

Compared to multiple #1s from an album, yes lol. You're telling me you'd pick that Taylor record over having 3 #1s?

it's like picking folklore over after hours lol, seems crazy

I'm telling you that Sabrina Carpenter is nowhere near the level of popularity of Taylor Swift anywhere in the world, I don't care how many #1s she has.

And it's not like that at all. folklore did 31K first week in the UK and After Hours did 27K. That's much closer than TTPD's vs. Short N Sweet's first week UK sales (270K vs. 89K)

if the weeknd flops with a carti stimulus he is Camila Cabello status

Don't even need to care about whether it was a weak year or not, other consumption metrics clearly show its likely the most popular song ever released or close to it

Billboard 200 top 10 this week:

Espresso is so catchy

How can you see this and say that lol…

Also the fact you don’t believe he’s a superstar might be the most braindead
take anyone’s seen on here

He’s gonna respond with something along the lines of “you’re stuck in the past”

lol I don’t even think that can work when 7 of these songs were only released in the 2020s era and matter of fact creepin released December 2022 and one of the girls last year
