Taylor Swift’s The Tortured Poets Department could reclaim No. 1 on the Official Albums chart, … More
It looks like Taylor Swift might be headed back to No. 1 again. The singer-songwriter’s most recent full-length The Tortured Poets Department could soon reclaim the top spot on the Official Albums chart in the United Kingdom, that nation’s main ranking of the most consumed albums. While nothing is confirmed yet, and it won’t be for another day or so, the set’s first birthday, as well as a special edition of the title, may be enough excitement to turn the lengthy studio LP into a leader once more.
Taylor Swift’s Latest Full-Length Could Rebound to No. 1
According to the Official Charts Company, which serves as the U.K.’s equivalent to Billboard, The Tortured Poets Department is expected to rise significantly on next week’s Official Albums chart. Early data suggests it may soar more than 20 spaces, vaulting from its current position all the way back to the top.
Signed Copies of The Tortured Poets Department
To mark the first birthday of The Tortured Poets Department, Swift recently offered a signed edition of the CD. That collectible version is, of course, of great interest to a huge number of Swifties, who love buying anything attached to the superstar – and her personally signing them is surely a thrill to many. Currently sitting at No. 24 on the main albums roster, Swift’s most recent bestseller will almost surely climb in the coming days, but exactly how high is yet to be seen.
Taylor Swift’s Longest-Running No. 1 Album
The Tortured Poets Department already stands as Swift’s longest-running No. 1 album in the U.K. So far, it’s the only one of her efforts to spend double-digit frames in charge. The project has managed 10 weeks at the summit — a feat no other title in her discography can claim. If it does retake the throne, that figure will climb to 11.
Taylor Swift’s Eight Charting Albums
Swift’s current chart dominance doesn’t end with The Tortured Poets Department. This week, eight of her albums appear on at least one ranking in the U.K., which is a typical performance for her – and only her.
Half a dozen of them — including Folklore, Lover, 1989 (Taylor’s Version), Reputation, Midnights, and, of course, The Tortured Poets Department — are currently found on both the Official Albums chart and the Official Albums Streaming ranking. Two more titles, Fearless (Taylor’s Version) and her self-titled debut, are holding on via only the Official Country Artists Albums roster.
