Chart-Topping Taylor Swift Dominates U.K with Emotionally-Charged ‘Tortured Poets’ Singles
Taylor Swift is making waves once again in the U.K. charts with her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department. Swift is set to achieve her fourth No.1 single with the track “Fortnight,” a collaboration with Post Malone. This opening track is leading the way ahead of other hits like the title track and “So Long, London.”
The Tortured Poets Department, Swift’s 11th studio album, is already breaking records globally. The album recently made history by becoming the first to hit over 300 million streams in a single day on Spotify. The release of Tortured Poets saw it become the most streamed album in one day in 2024, surpassing Beyoncé’s previous record. The double album features 31 tracks and has been well-received by fans and critics alike.
“Fortnight,” co-written and co-produced by Swift herself, alongside Malone and Jack Antonoff, also made a mark as Spotify’s most streamed song in a single day. With Swift’s track record of success in the U.K. charts, it is no surprise that Tortured Poets is expected to claim the top spot. Swift currently holds 11 No. 1 albums in the U.K., cementing her status as one of the most successful artists in the region.
If Tortured Poets debuts at No. 1 later this week, Swift will tie with Madonna for the most U.K. No. 1 albums by a female artist. Swift’s dominance in the music industry continues to grow, setting her apart as a truly iconic figure in the world of music. Stay tuned for the official chart results to see if Taylor Swift can achieve yet another milestone in her impressive career.
