posting her usual crap in the taylor swift appreciation thread


"I think her next album will be the most anticipated ever from her, not just from her fans but by the music world. She has already proven she is one of the best female songwriters out there, the critical acclaim she has had from major players in the music industry is amazing and you have to go back a long, long way to find another female artist that has received this level of acclaim. If the songwriting on this new album turns out to be as good as what people are making out then she will be moving up there with some of the best female songwriters of all time.
Taylor is one of those artists where its almost impossible to begrudge her the success she has had, a fantastic songwriter, amazing live performer and all round fantastic woman. Artsits that tick all the boxes like taylor does only come around a few times in a lifetime, lets just hope she continues to make fantastic music for decades to come"

From The OCC Site - Friday 23rd April 2012:,

The Top 10 biggest selling albums of all-time in the
UK are now as follows. Please note, updated sales
figures won't be published until next Monday when
this chart week's sales have been finalised.

Adele’s 21 has topped IFPI’s top global sellers chart for 2011 with the highest calendar sales since the countdown was created a decade ago.

The XL album finished as the past year’s biggest seller after shifting 18.1 million copies worldwide, easily beating the highest previous tally recorded by the IFPI for Eminem’s The Eminem Show in 2002. His album sold 13.9 million units that calendar year.
