Taylor Swift Charts All 20 Songs From ‘Midnights’ on Billboard Hot 100

Taylor Swift scores an explosive week on the latest, Nov. 5, 2022-dated Billboard charts.

Following the Oct. 21 release of her latest studio album Midnights, Swift makes history as the first artist in the Billboard Hot 100’s 64-year history to occupy the entire top 10 in a single week. She also passes Madonna for the most top 10 hits among women (40).

Midnights opens as Swift’s 11th No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, as it soars in with 1.578 million equivalent album units earned in the Oct. 21-27 tracking week, according to Luminate. The set sports the largest one-week total since the debut week of Adele’s 25 (3.482 million) on the chart dated Dec. 12, 2015.

Midnights is already the top-selling album of 2022, with 1.140 million copies sold in its first week. It also shatters the record for the biggest vinyl week – 575,000 copies sold on vinyl – since Luminate began tracking vinyl sales in 1991.

Here’s a recap of where all 20 songs from Midnights – 13 from the set’s original version and seven more from its “3am Edition” – launch on the Hot 100:
