"Speak Now" Sells Over 1 Million Copies!

Taylor's "Speak Now" sales are in! "Speak Now" topped her first two albums. Her 3rd album sold 1,044,477 copies in it's first week! Congratulations to Taylor! "Speak Now" is amazing and Taylor broke a few records by selling so many copies! Read the article below for more information.
_______________________________________________________________
Back in July Billboard was predicting that Taylor Swift’s album “Speak Now” would sell more than one million albums during its first week out.

Will Botwin, President/CEO of Red Light Management and ATO Records even said:

“It feels like if anybody can do it now, she could be the one. She has the sales base and heat from the last few albums. And with all the amazing things she has going on, she is as likely as anybody to reach a million units, especially with the efforts of Big Machine and Universal behind her.”

Many people left a comment saying that it wasn’t possible for Swift to sell one million copies during its first week since people aren’t selling CDs these days.

Well, thanks to Hits Daily Double, the official numbers are in. How do you think her album did?

Swift sold 1,044,477 albums of her new album “Speak Now” during its first week in stores. Country group Sugarland came in second place with just under 87,000 copies. That’s a huge difference between the first and second spot.

Whether you’re a fan of Swift’s or not, you can’t deny the affect she’s having on the music industry.

"Dear John" Lyrics

So here are the lyrics to "Dear John"! Could it be about John Mayor???? I tried my best to write down the right lyrics so i'm sorry if some words are wrong... but i'm pretty sure most of it is right. So here it is.
Long were the nights
When my days once revolved around you
Counting the footsteps
Praying the floor won’t fall through again
My mother accused me of losing my mind but I swore I was fine
You paint me a blue sky and go back and turn it to rain
And I lived in your chess game but you change the rules everyday
Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone tonight
Well I stopped picking up and this song is to let you know why

Dear john, I see it all now that your gone
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with
The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
I should’ve known

Well maybe it’s me
Am I blind to miss him someday
Or maybe its you and your sick need to give love then take it away
And you’ll add my name to your long list of traders who don’t understand
And I’ll look back and regret when they said run as fast as you can

Dear john, I see it all now that your gone
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with
The girl in the dress cried the whole way home

Dear john, I see it all now that it was wrong
Don’t you think 19s too young to be played with by your dark twisted games when I loved you so
I should’ve known

You are an expert at sorry
And keepin’ lives hurried
Never impressed by me
Acing your tests
All The girls that you run dry
And tired these eyes cuz you runned them out
But I took your matches before fire could catch me so don’t look now
Im shining like fireworks over your sad empty town

Dear john, I see it all now that your gone
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with
The girl in the dress cried the whole way home
I see it all now that your gone
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with
The girl in the dress wrote you a song
You should’ve known
You should’ve known
Don’t you think I was too young
You should’ve known

"Better than Revenge" Song and Lyrics


Now go stand in the corner and think about what you did

The story starts when it was hot and it was summer and
I had it all I had him right there when I wanted him
She came along got him alone and let's hear the applause
She took him faster than you can say sabotage

I never saw it coming
Wouldn't have suspected it
I underestimated just who I was dealing with
She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum
She underestimated just who she was stealing from

She's not a saint
And she's not what you think
She's an actress
Whoa
She's better known for the things that she does on the matress
Whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other peoples toys on the playground won't make you many friends
she should keep in mind
She should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge

She listed life that it's a party
And she's on the list
She looks at me like I'm a trend
And she's so over it
I think her ever-present frown is a little troubling
She thinks I'm psycho cause I like to rhyme her name with things

But sophistication isn't what you wear or who you know
Or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go
Well they didn't teach you that in prep school so it's up to me
But no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity

She's not a saint
And she's not what you think
She's an actress
Whoa
She's better known for the things that she does on the matress
Whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other peoples toys on the playground won't make you many friends
she should keep in mind
She should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge

Im just another thing for you to roll your eyes at, honey
You might have him but haven't you heard
Im just another thing for you to roll your eyes at, honey
You might have him but I always get the last word (word)

She's not a saint
And she's not what you think
She's an actress
Whoa
She's better known for the things that she does on the matress
Whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other peoples toys on the playground won't make you many friends
she should keep in mind
She should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge

Do you still feel like
You know what you're doing
Cause I don't think you do

Do you still feel like
You know what you're doing
I don't think you do
I don't think you do

Let's hear the applause
C'mon show me how much better you are
See you deserve some applause
Cause you're so much better

She took him faster than you can say sabotage

___________________________________________

_____________________________

You, with your words like knives
And swords and weapons that you use against me,
You, have knocked me off my feet again,
Got me feeling like I'm nothing.
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard
Calling me out when I'm wounded.
You, pickin' on the weaker man.

Well you can take me down,
With just one single blow.
But you don't know, what you don't know,

Someday, I'll be living in a big old city,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
Why you gotta be so mean?

You, with your switching sides,
And your walk by lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again,
As if I don't already see them.
I walk with my head down,
Trying to block you out cause I'll never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again.

I bet you got pushed around,
Somebody made you cold,
But the cycle ends right now,
You can't lead me down that road,
You don't know, what you don't know

Someday, I'll be, living in a big old city,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
Why you gotta be so mean?

And I can see you years from now in a bar,
Talking over a football game,
With that same big loud opinion but,
Nobody's listening,
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things,
Drunk and grumbling on about how I can't sing.

But all you are is mean,
All you are is mean.
And a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life,
And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean

But someday, I'll be, living in a big old city,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean. Yeah,
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
Why you gotta be so ?
Someday, I'll be, living in a big old city,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean. Yeah,
Someday, I'll be big enough so you can't hit me,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean.
Why you gotta be so mean?

Groom for "Mine"

It took a bit of luck, but Taylor Swift found the perfect groom – for her new music video.

The singing sensation, 20, picked British-born actor Toby Hemingway, 27, to walk her down the aisle in the video for her soon-to-be-released song, "Mine," in which she plays a bride.

"I saw Feast of Love and just loved that movie and thought Toby was so great that I thought it would be perfect to put him in the video," Swift tells PEOPLE about the Los Angeles-based actor.

But it was the unexpected appearance of her lucky number that sealed the deal.

"I was doing some more research and watched another movie he was in called The Covenant,” she says. "I've got this crazy 13 lucky thing, and he walks on screen for the first time wearing a sweatshirt with a 13 on it! That was the deciding factor. It wasn't really up to me, it was about the number."

The costars seem to have clicked in person, too – they were recently seen hanging out together, when Swift was in L.A. to record with an orchestra for her next album, Speak Now, due Oct. 25.

But getting married on film "was a little strange," Swift says. "I get to wear big dresses and wear white all the time on the carpet, but there's nothing quite like actually pretending you're getting married."

If the message in her song "Mine" – out Aug. 16 – is any indication, it’ll probably be a long time before she's ready for the real thing. "It's a song that is about my tendency to run from love – it's been a recent tendency," she told viewers during a live Web chat Tuesday.

"Every really direct example of love that I've had in front of me has ended in goodbye, has ended in breakups," she said. "So I've developed a pattern of sort of running away when it comes time to fall in love. This song is sort of about finding the exception to that."
