�� ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ by Taylor Swift earned 249.9 million streams on its first day on Global Spotify from 12 charting songs.

It's the biggest album debut of 2025.

I like some of her stuff so will download the album and have a listen at work next week.

I'm definitely not a fan of her Music.

You need to develop more of an elitist attitude Bots.

For example.

Anything I don't like = bad

Anything that I do like = good

And you've got to add artsy and sophisticated language to your speech to ooze swarve.

Kermit and Gonzo did say that they 'have magic in their pants.'

…sensational, really……

[Shaun]

yes hordes of people liking the same ubiquitous thing regardless of the quality of her output is a sensation I suppose

[Nicky91]

it was also talked about on my province's radio Omroep Brabant, one of the dj's (and self-claimed team boss) Maarten Kortlever is a fan of this album, and he played The Fate of Ophelia this morning


remarkable it gets mentioned on Omroep Brabant since majority of its listeners are from the 50+ age group

[Glenn.]

Pretending success on this scale is down to hype instead of talent is a reach. If it were that easy, every artist would be doing it.

[Swan]

I listened throughout the week. Im absolutely sh!te at remembering song names now, i usually just download albums, or release radar onto my phone and listen at work. If a particular song really stands out i'll add it to a personal playlist, anyway.....

It's not bad, but nothing really stood out for me. Good luck to her and the success of this album is incredible, but one her best? No, not in my opinion.

One of my black friends said there’s a song where she’s like appropriating black culture and I found that interesting. She’s a swiftie too.

Idk how accurate that is bc I haven’t listened to it at all though

Eminem has been doing that for over 25 years, and he still gets sh!t in certain circles for it. It's dodgy ground for a white artist.

[Ninastar]

I don’t think that Eminem and Taylor are comparable. One grew up incredibly wealthy and the other grew up incredibly poor. Yeah they are both white but that’s the only thing they have in common.

I’m sure people think Eminem appropriates black culture, but he also grew up around it and experienced it first hand.

True, which probably makes it even more risky for Taylor. But yeah, which song was it?

[Ninastar]

I literally don’t remember but it was something about bad butches maybe?

[Ninastar]

Omfg bitches not butches

[Ninastar]

Not Taylor hating the butches too

[Glenn.]

When anyone called me "Sweetheart"
It was passive-aggressive at the bar
And the bitch was tellin' me to back off
'Cause her man had looked at me wrong
