Taylor Swift Charts Three Top 10 Albums In The U.K. As ‘Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)’ Debuts At No. 1

Taylor Swift is proving once again that she is a force to be reckoned with in the music industry, especially across the pond. Her latest release, Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), debuts at No. 1 on the U.K. albums chart, marking yet another success for the talented singer-songwriter. Not only did the album claim the throne, but Swift also managed to secure three spots inside the top 10.

It is no small feat to have three albums in the top 10, and Swift joins an elite group of artists who have achieved this milestone. This accomplishment is typically reserved for the biggest and most popular acts, demonstrating just how massive Swift’s fan base is in the country. She’s not the first to manage this showing, but not many have been able to do so, and she’s counted among them.

Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) starts at No. 1 on the U.K. albums chart with ease, facing no competition this time around. According to the Official Charts Company, the album shifted an impressive 67,000 equivalent units in its first week of availability. What’s even more remarkable is that Swift’s latest release moved more units than the rest of the top 10 combined. The re-recorded version of her previous album, Speak Now, surpassed the opening sales of the original, and it is now Swift’s milestone tenth chart-topping album in the country.

While Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) takes the top spot, Swift’s previous chart-topper, Midnights, still holds a place in the top 10. The album, which debuted at No. 1 in late 2022, has remained a strong contender on the charts. Although it slips to No. 9 in the current frame, its presence inside the highest tier is still noteworthy.

Adding to the excitement, Swift’s album 1989, her first foray into pure pop music, has continued its remarkable resurgence, climbing from No. 14 to No. 10. It’s an impressive placement for an album that has spent over 300 weeks on the chart. Fans in the U.K. continue to stream and purchase the album in significant numbers, even outpacing several high-profile new releases.
