Taylor Swift Albums Hit Billboard Charts As “Folklore” Debuts at No.1

As Folklore arrives at # 1 with the biggest sum of a week of 2020 (nearly 850,000 equivalent units), a large part of its old catalog shows gains in terms of flow, sales, and certainly on a certain number of Billboard graphics.

Here’s a look at Swift’s notable upward moves over three Billboard rankings where she usually runs the show.

Half a dozen of Swift’s eight feature films make it to this week’s Billboard 200, with several coming back to count once more. Leading the way, unsurprisingly, is Folklore, which rocked the charts by opening up such a massive sum that only a handful of musicians could hope to muster with a new intensely promoted feature film.

Back in the top 20, it’s Lover, his most recent release (apart from Folklore, sure). This project, which hasn’t even had one yet, bounces back at # 18 from # 34. The only other title in the top half of the list is 1989, which gets an impressive comeback on the Billboard 200, ranking 57th.

Three Swift blockbusters find their way back to the Billboard 200 and land below # 100, with Reputation, Red and Intrepid settling respectively at numbers 119, 122 and 172.

Best Selling Albums

When looking at pure buys only, Swift performs even better than on the Billboard 200, as five of its feature films appear on the list, although this one only has 100 spots. Folklore opens at # 1, and it wasn’t even close, as 615,000 fans actually bought Swift’s latest. This is a large enough sum to ensure the folk title topped the rest of the top 50 … combined … with at least a quarter of a million copies to resell.

His 2019 winners Lover climbed back into the top 10 for the first time in months, selling a hundredth as many copies as Folklore, but it’s still enough to make it one of the 10 bestsellers of this mount.

The other three Swift tracks currently occupying space on the best-selling albums list all appear outside the top 40, with 1989, Reputation and Red reappearing at numbers 46, 64 and 99, respectively.

Best Country Albums

Only about half of Swift’s catalog can be categorized as country, while her most recent efforts have been referred to as pop or folk. At BillboardThe list of best country albums by, a trio of sets that made it a household name is gaining ground, with Red going to n ° 13, Intrepid go to n ° 20 and Speak Now barely entering the top 40 at No. 39, where he returned to the race.
