Taylor Swift Just Matched a Career Record — But That’s Not Even the Biggest Surprise

Opening Night of Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour

Taylor Swift is once again the queen of the Billboard 200, as several of her full-lengths return to the ranking of the most consumed albums in America.

Her entire catalog is surging following the announcement that she has acquired the rights to all the music she’s ever made, as that exciting news prompted her legion of followers to rush to stream and buy many of her older efforts—ones that had largely been overlooked for years.

This week, she occupies double-digit spaces on the Billboard 200 — an almost unheard-of feat for nearly any other artist, but one she’s managed numerous times before.

Taylor Swift Matches Her Personal Best on the Billboard 200

The singer-songwriter claims 11 spots on the Billboard 200 this frame, matching her best showing ever on the list in terms of total number of spots she’s filled at one time. According to Billboard, Swift has now appeared in exactly 11 spaces on the tally 31 times during her career.

Older Albums Return to the Chart

Four of Swift’s titles return to the Billboard 200 this week. Leading the group is her self-titled debut, which rockets back onto the list at No. 64. It’s closely followed by 1989, which reenters at No. 73.

These two efforts are the only ones from her early discography that have not yet been re-released as Taylor’s Versions, so they are now enjoying the greatest boost in streams and sales as fans feel more comfortable supporting them again.

Both Speak Now and Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) also return to the Billboard 200. The original comes in at No. 170, while the re-recorded take breaks back in at No. 185.

Taylor Swift’s Rise on the Billboard 200

Almost all of Swift’s albums that were already present on the Billboard 200 last week rise in terms of their position. The roundup includes ReputationThe Tortured Poets DepartmentLoverMidnights, and FolkloreRed (Taylor’s Version), which also climbs, sits just below several comebacks, as it is sandwiched between 1989 and Speak Now at No. 147.

Taylor Swift’s Albums Return to Other Charts

Four additional full-lengths by Swift appear on at least one Billboard ranking apiece, though they don’t manage to land on the Billboard 200.

That collection includes Fearless and Fearless (Taylor’s Version), as well as the original Red and Evermore. Many of these projects bounce back onto at least one tally, as both sales and overall consumption increase.
