Mason’s Observations on the Non-Shortage of Hot New Music

This week’s most-added song on Top 40 radio was Taylor Swift’s “Elizabeth Taylor”, the third single from her extremely successful album The Life of a Showgirl. “The Fate of Ophelia” and “Opalite” were obvious smash hits from the beginning, leading in stream counts on Spotify, spins on radio and requests on Liveline. There aren’t many artists who manage to achieve three number-ones off a single album, but in the past few years, artists like Sabrina Carpenter, Doja Cat and Olivia Rodrigo have proven it possible. The best instance is the legendary string of hits from Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream” in 2010, with six chart-toppers. Something no one has achieved before or in the streaming era!
