Taylor Swift’s “Fearless” to be Number 1 on Charts
I was telling a friend the other day that Taylor Swift’s “Fearless” was going to be one of the top country albums of the year, despite the fact that it’s coming out in October. And after one day, it looks like I could be right.
Billboard says that Swift’s sophomore album will not only be the top album on the charts this week, but that it could sell as many as 600,000 this week - making it the top selling week for a country artist this year. For context, Carrie Underwood’s “Carnival Ride” sold 527,000 copies in its first week, though Swift is probably not yet on Underwood’s level in terms of popularity, it shows that she’s just a half step back.
