Taylor Swift Dominates Mid-2015 Music

Hey there, Swifties who read my blog regarding of Taylor Swift articles.

7 months ago, Taylor Swift released Blank Space on Vevo and so far, the music video becomes the fastest video to reach 1 billion views. That’s right, Taylor Swift’s Blank Space video, which was released online via Vevo last November, has hit one billion views and become the fastest to do so.

The pop star took to Twitter to share her excitement after hearing the news.

Blank Space was released late last year as the second single off of Taylor Swift’s massively successful fifth studio album, 1989.

Taylor Swift has tweeted to her 60 million followers on Twitter.


The cinematic music video was directed by Joseph Kahn (who also directed Bad Blood music video) and made available on Vevo last November.


Taylor Swift is currently in the North American leg of her 1989 world tour to support her first pop effort. The tour opened last May in Japan and is scheduled to finish in December.


It’s nice to see Taylor Swift’s Blank Space hitting 1 billion views. Pop music sure loves Taylor Swift. But I want Taylor Swift to have the best of success of her entire career, not making more pop music. Seriously, I’m sick of her pop music. I want Taylor Swift to bring back crossover by putting in other genres like country because she is capable of making music with other genres like hip-hop. She needs to stop making pop music but I have to wait until she’s getting older though. I miss her crossover country career. It helps me getting interested in Taylor Swift’s career. I hate Taylor Swift is a pop artist appearance. Taylor Swift is a pop artist appearance ruined her career since 2012 and never stops. But hey, at least we still got her music videos. Well let’s move on.

Forget Red's pop songs like I Knew You Were Trouble, 1989 is my jam. So far, I’m loving the 1989 era and I don’t even like her pop music like We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together. Duh. First Bad Blood gains 20 million views in the first 24 hours on Vevo and now Blank Space took the fastest to gain 1 billion views on Vevo in 7 months. That’s why I’m loving Taylor Swift so far because she is different compared to other artists when listening to music alone. Even compared to late 90s/early 2000s music. Now, if only Taylor Swift needs to stop making too many pop music and tackle new genres like rock, that would be great. It would nice if all Taylor Swift songs (pop or non-pop) are pop songs. Taylor Swift’s career is turning 10 next year. So I was expecting to see her releasing her first pop greatest hits album for mainstream, not crossover. Also, take a look at this.


It appears that Nielsen Music has revealed their mid-year report and six months into 2015, streaming and vinyl sales are up over their 2014 numbers while overall album sales are going down.

Also, 6 months into 2015 where only one albums has sold over one million copies so far which is Taylor Swift’s 1989. The latest fifth Taylor Swift album has added 1.3 million copies in 2015 to its already- impressive 2014 haul as soon as 1989 sold more than 4 million copies in the US in 12 weeks earlier this year. In addition to selling the most CDs in 2015, only 1989 has been the year’s top-selling vinyl with 33,500 units sold.

Wow, talk about streaming and vinyl as well as Taylor Swift dominating the mid 2015 music left and right as streaming is the king of the music industry this year as downloads are fading away. Soon, music listeners will have to give up radio and movie to streaming so they can listen to streaming music like Backstreet Boys and Katy Perry. So if you want to listen to something like Britney Spears, Carrie Underwood, Rihanna or Demi Lovato, head over to the streaming department like Spotify and listen to something like Linkin Park and Selena Gomez. Now then, let’s continue.

If streaming music continues to show up, soon, Billboard will be making a new chart designed for streaming music like Avril Lavigne and, what’s worse, Taylor Swift will have to move to streaming music for good as she gets older by the end of this decade. Maybe if music can do stream exclusive singles, then radio will never beats the power of streaming. Streaming music should not be a thing in the past. Streaming must stay and dominate radio.

Next article: Katy Perry roars on to 1 billion views on Vevo almost 2 years after it came out in 2013. So stay tuned.
