'Midnights' is Taylor Swift's 10th studio album
Taylor Swift’s much anticipated album Midnights came out on Friday and it has been met with acclaim from both fans and critics.
The latest released album, which temporarily crashed Spotify upon the release of the seven bonus tracks, is set to sell over a million copies in its first week of release, it has been reported.
Hits Daily Double predicted that based on its first day numbers, Midnights could sell up to 1-1.2 million copies in week one.
According to initial reports to Luminate, the album has sold more than 800,000 copies in the U.S. through its first day across all available formats (multiple digital album download, CD, vinyl and cassette variants).
It is pertinent to mention that no artist has achieved such a feat since Swift, 32, herself dropped her score-settling album Reputation in 2017.
Midnights has already set the largest sales record in a week for any album since 2017. It is the top-selling album of 2022 year-to-date, and has set a modern-era record for single-week vinyl album sales.
