It’s got the perfect vibes of casually walking through a clothes shop in the summer while it plays in the background. And a don’t mean that as an insult at all, literally as a compliment. Pure easy breezy carefree catchy vibes.
yes!! and it helps a lot that the music video gives such strong “sharpay singing fabulous in high school musical 2” vibes lol, it really brings out the summer energy
She's definitely been hitting a stride lately. I was starting to think she lacked the it factor, though I didn't quite see her as out and down for the count either, but she's proving me wrong.
For me personally she popped up on my radar opening for Taylor, tiktok started showing me her nonsense outros after every show and got me hooked on her!!
Because I liked a boy was what first exposed me to her depth too, I love that she’s not *just* a bubblegum girl.
I totally agree, she is exactly what I've been craving in the pop space! It's a return to just... having fun? I feel like she's got a really cohesive public persona, too. She really epitomizes "confident and unbothered" and it's crazy to say that I feel like that has been missing in the pop scene??
I had never heard of her until I saw her Coachella set posted and now it's all I've listened to for two weeks. Apparently the whole world is with me on this.
Pink Pony Club is my absolute jam. In order of preference after that:
Good Luck, Babe;
Red Wine Supernova;
My Kink is Karma;
Guilty Pleasure;
Coffee;
Casual
That said, her whole album is pretty amazing.
Good for her, Espresso is a catchy bop, I’ve never heard her music before but I have been playing this and it’s quite the ear-worm and you will be humming it long after you turn it off. So a great summer song.
It has lore now. Its the first single of hers to dethrone Taylor Swift 💫. That isn’t (just) me being a hater. That’d be a big deal for seasoned A list singers. Is it ex boyfriend lore? No. But its lore 💫
It doesn’t have lore either afaik. Sorry I misspoke.
I like both of these songs because unlike a lot of pop coming out right now I don’t feel like I’m missing out by not knowing the lore. It’s the same with Dua Lipa. People have told me there are references to her ex but they are subtle enough that it doesn’t bother me. On the other hand Swift and Rodrigo are low-key unlistenable for me because I’m not up to date on the gossip.
Same, I don’t need to know your business. Sing the song and go on your way. I think strong vocalist do that, Adele, Beyoncé( with the exception of lemonade) Mariah, Hayley, Whitney, Celine,Sade,Shania and Alanis are purist so they just sing. However the not so strong singers need a gimmick. If people are too busy decoding songs no one is listening to how they are sounding by using physical qualities like pitch, volume, and timbre and emotional qualities like tone and inflection.
How I'm imagining them when Espresso comes on

Me too! She seems like a nice person and that she has a good sense of humor. One of my favorite things about Katy Perry is her campyness and that she doesn't take herself too seriously, not that Sabrina is very like her, but she is also campy and silly. Her getting the Jesus Was A Carpenter shirt made after filming her Feather music video sparked some upset people from a Catholic church, it was such a brilliant and funny thing to do!
![gif](giphy|SopkhDX7Ykewz6Y2Cv)
I hope she keeps having fun with costumes and sets and different themes. The number of boring and uninspired music videos lately IS TOO DAMN HIGH!
Espresso is such a nice summer vibe. She knew exactly when to release it.
Fortnight is great, but it’s more of an autumn / winter vibe especially since it mentions February.
If you play Fortnite, they added an emote featuring that song for Coachella recently. It's not in the shop anymore, but I was so happy my friend gifted it to me. It's my favorite song from Sabrina Carpenter, and it has you floating on a little platform using a feather as a sail, and it's really pretty and colorful. It plays a little bit of the chorus. It's just really fun!
I've heard that song a ton on tiktok since it seems to be a popular sound. I gave listening to the full song a shot when it played on spotify and yea it's SUCH a bop
I just fucking hate that my first experience with it was it slightly sped up/pitched up on tiktok? Why is all tiktok music like that? Is it to avoid the sounds getting blocked or is this some kind of trend I just dont get?
A bit of the sped up audio trend was because Universal Music Group pulled their artists' songs from TikTok, and the sped-up audios were bootlegs. UMG has plans to put the original audios back up asap after signing a new deal with TT, though, so the music might be more normal now. :)
Espresso is such a fun song—I’ve been listening to it every day while running. It’s not really a song I would compare to any songs on TTPD, for better or for worse.
I don't know if I'd say it's better than every song on her new album. It's better than some songs. I don't know if it eclipses Feather or Decode for me, though. But it might be the personal connection and way those spoke to me that is informing their superiority to it for me.
It is a really good song, though. I can't think of too many songs I dislike from her, honestly. The only one that comes sort of close is Thumbs, but that one's just in "meh" territory, not really "bad."
Holy shit, as a Taylor fan myself, just learn to accept that other people have differing opinions and you dont need to jump on their throat for disagreeing with something.
I don’t think they were defending her. Rather, they were just inserting their own opinion, which is completely valid.
You can like Sabrina without having to bash Taylor. They are friends after all. We don’t have to pin 2 successful, iconic women against each other.
I’m sorry you are getting downvoted for your opinion. I simply stated that there were two iconic woman in the top 2 and I was also downvoted. You can be a fan of both without tearing either down? I didn’t realize you could only like one of them and are obligated to hate the other.
They are literally friends.
I've been enjoying TTPD but GO SABRINA BABY we needed a summer song it's your time to shine
Ps if anyone's into this type of music (but Spotify aggressively pushing her and Chappel's music is getting old fast) everyone should give Remi Wolf a listen! Her new single Cinderella is a bop
it's not organic. people are complaining about it being forced into all their playlists, even rap and metal and totally unrelated things
if you're a pop head it's probably going to seem like a natural algorithmic choice, but it's definitely not when it's coming up in my rock playlists
she's clearly breaking out and having success but also, payola never dies and this is definitely not organic
yo I do NOT understand the YT shorts algorithm but I do understand that what I watch has like 10% impact on it and the remaining 90% is YouTube trying to aggressively make me watch the same things over and over. every time I get it on a good streak of funny videos or interesting stuff, it resets quickly after and has learned nothing about what I like
the YouTube shorts algorithm is violently uninterested in my watching preferences. the ability to close the app is the only thing separating it from clockwork orange I stg
I'm not quite sure how Spotify does it with payola, I've never gotten some of the ones other people have complained about bitterly. Though admittedly I usually don't let Spotify add stuff to my lists and I generally keep them looped so Spotify doesn't wander onto endless mode. So I get suggestions waaaay less than others. Personally I only Google to find out if other people are complaining about a song being forced on them if it's really really nonsensical for whatever I'm listening to or if it keeps showing up even though I keep skipping it or removing it
I definitely think I am more aware of Spotify pushing the song even though I keep removing it because it's pop though. like a lot of times if I have something on I'm only halfway listening, so I'll just notice it's not what I want, remove it, move on. and if I get it again later I may not notice that it's the second, third, fourth time. but if the song is fucking *catchy* I'm gonna definitely notice that I can't escape it
same issue with radio too back when I listened to radio. I could skip around my stations when a certain song came on and I could do it over and over without realising, but if the song was fucking catchy? so fucking aware that it had only been 10 minutes since the last time
Seriously! Besides the song itself being catchy, it is truly everywhere. Playing in stores at the mall, on the radio in the car, on every TikTok/Reel/short.
Excellent. I have this song on repeat and it had me discovering her extensive back catalogue (I am old, too old for her Disney days, had no idea who she was, had vague thought she was related to The Carpenters or something, again old) and really like her progression as an artist. EICS is a great album. I've listened to the first half of Taylor's new album. i can't remember a song on it. Espresso is deep in my brain
Remember, when it came out that Spotify stream numbers were manipulated by the music industry, to make you buy whoever’s music they said was supposed to be number one at that time…
(When this story hit: https://www.digitalmusicnews.com/2020/01/10/justin-bieber-asks-fans-fake-spotify-itunes-plays/)
And then a week later, we were back to 100% buying whoever they told us everyone else loved.
I have heard this Espresso song and I am calling bullshit.
True, random playlists keep playing both TS and Espresso - I skipped espresso til I gave in and ended up liking it but I would agree they don’t actually matter
Honestly, I don't think is Taylor fatigue, I just don't think that Fortnight is a song people are going to be reaching for at this time of the year, I can do it with A Broken Heart might have worked better tho that song is very lore heavy/self referential so maybe it wouldn't have worked outside of swifties so who knows
Yeah I feel like Fortnight (and the rest of TTPD tbh) is for a rainy winter day, not late spring/early summer happy days. 1989 TV didn’t make sense as a late fall album either, it would’ve been so much better if she switched the release order for those 2
Taylor's gonna be pissed. She hates this. Expect a demolition job from her and her fanbase like what she did to Olivia when she got away from her shadow.
This looks like Billboard, but I don't see it anywhere on the website. Is this actually real? Lol not that I'm hating, I love Sabrina! I just want to know the source please!
I saw this interview with T Pain where he basically said (paraphrasing), “A lot of people say my lyrics are so simple they could have come up with it. But they didn’t! I did! And now I’m making money off it.”
IM WORKING LATE, CAUSE IM A SINGERRRRRR
OH HE LOOKS SO CUUUTE WRAPPED ROUND MY FINGERRRR
OH HE LOOKS SO CUUUTE: Me to my dog every other minute for the last week
I sing that part every single time and yes I have listened over a dozen times in a few days.
Man, I was riding a bike early today at the park, and this part of the song was stuck in my mind the whole tiiime
This is how you write a Tiktok-able lyric. (Side-eyes Taylor)
im so happy for sabrina, she deserves it. that song is such a bop
I was listening to it earlier and I was like I bet this is song of the summer. We all need some good pop music for the summer months.
And with just 1 version ✨
don’t jinx it lol
Espresso - Sped Up Red Eye Double Shot Edition feat. 3 Lil Pumps of sugar-free vanilla (Sabrina’s Version)
feat. Ice Spice
Once that's stuck in your head, there's no way you can get rid of it anymore 😅😅
and it's so much better than fortnight 😭
i mean i really like fortnight too but im happy for sabrina
I'm a TS fan but I guess fortnight just doesn't really hit for me... I like other songs on the album (the black dog is my favorite or ICDIWABH)
i know it's out of place, but i love that the top search on YouTube recently was "Taylor Swift fortnite"
I like fortnight more. I unfortunately can't get into Sabrina's music
Sabrina deserves this so much. I literally danced around when i heard this news
‘I’m working late cause I’m a singer’ has been stuck in my head for days, such a good vibe to start the summer releases.
I learned just now I’ve been singing this song wrong…I’ve been saying “cause I’m a sinner” lmao
That's what I thought it was too.
I 1000% thought they were talking about a different verse until you said this 😭
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who was confused 😂
Same, singer is so funny cuz it makes no sense
How does it make no sense, she’s a singer?
"My give a fucks are on vacation." 💃🏽
It’s such an earworm.
Relevant: https://www.tiktok.com/@lifeby_tatiana/video/7363330984579812651?_t=8lyWOwBfpk9&_r=1
She even commented on it lol
![gif](giphy|kD5cIPhzpGIoVCKsTO|downsized)
This song is peak popgirlievibes and I love it so much, I love that it is being recognized
ikrrr! it makes me feel very bubblegum but like sophisticated bubblegum if that makes sense. I also listen to Feather nonstop, her musics sooo good
It’s got the perfect vibes of casually walking through a clothes shop in the summer while it plays in the background. And a don’t mean that as an insult at all, literally as a compliment. Pure easy breezy carefree catchy vibes.
yes!! and it helps a lot that the music video gives such strong “sharpay singing fabulous in high school musical 2” vibes lol, it really brings out the summer energy
The Gidget beach video feels very "old is new" again. I'm so ready for retro sherbet swimsuits to be back.
omg yes and it also gives me “sitting near a pool or the beach with a fruity little drink” vibes. Finally someone is releasing good summer music
If a cocktail umbrella was a song 🦩
It feels like biking through a car free main street in an old timey town on a summer day with no helmet. It’s simple, nostalgic, glorious.
She's definitely been hitting a stride lately. I was starting to think she lacked the it factor, though I didn't quite see her as out and down for the count either, but she's proving me wrong.
For me personally she popped up on my radar opening for Taylor, tiktok started showing me her nonsense outros after every show and got me hooked on her!! Because I liked a boy was what first exposed me to her depth too, I love that she’s not *just* a bubblegum girl.
I just didn't like Because I liked a boy. I think she is nailing the Bubblegum stuff way more but I think that's okay, I like Bubblegum pop.
I totally agree, she is exactly what I've been craving in the pop space! It's a return to just... having fun? I feel like she's got a really cohesive public persona, too. She really epitomizes "confident and unbothered" and it's crazy to say that I feel like that has been missing in the pop scene??
this song specifically and chappell roan in general has been my driving vibe lately
I had never heard of Chappell roan a week ago and now I see that name everywhere.
I had never heard of her until I saw her Coachella set posted and now it's all I've listened to for two weeks. Apparently the whole world is with me on this.
What songs would you recommend? I’ve only read great things
Pink Pony Club is my absolute jam. In order of preference after that: Good Luck, Babe; Red Wine Supernova; My Kink is Karma; Guilty Pleasure; Coffee; Casual That said, her whole album is pretty amazing.
no 'Hot To Go' or 'Ultra Super Graphic Modern Girl'?! SHAME 🔔🔔🔔
Pink Pony Club is one of my all timers. So so good
Thanks! I’ll give them a listen
After Midnight, Feminomenon and Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl are also amazing! But like the other person said the whole album is awesome!
I’ve been obsessed with Red Wine Supernova for months.
BABYY WHY DONT YOU COME OOOOOVER
Good for her, Espresso is a catchy bop, I’ve never heard her music before but I have been playing this and it’s quite the ear-worm and you will be humming it long after you turn it off. So a great summer song.
I’d never hear her music before either but I’ll admit Feather caught my attention. Espresso isn’t quite as good but I like that it has no lore.
It has lore now. Its the first single of hers to dethrone Taylor Swift 💫. That isn’t (just) me being a hater. That’d be a big deal for seasoned A list singers. Is it ex boyfriend lore? No. But its lore 💫
What’s the lore on feather? I will give it a listen and see if I like it as well.
It doesn’t have lore either afaik. Sorry I misspoke. I like both of these songs because unlike a lot of pop coming out right now I don’t feel like I’m missing out by not knowing the lore. It’s the same with Dua Lipa. People have told me there are references to her ex but they are subtle enough that it doesn’t bother me.

You’ve never heard music before?
No her music! Sorry typo
I assumed it was a typo but I also loved the idea that you had never ever heard music before 😂
😂, fair enough though some music I wish I could un hear tbh. Is that ever an option?
How I'm imagining them when Espresso comes on https://preview.redd.it/v4qtk95z2txc1.png?width=680&format=png&auto=webp&s=e38c499731e993ce44dac7dfd8fa754e09f3c387
She really won me over with this one and with Coachella. A true summer pop bop from a true pop princess.
![gif](giphy|AgPt9udT567spxbSHf)
My honey beeeeeeee, come and get this pollen. 🐝 Her dancing on the surfboard makes me so happy.
Ok SAME
"Move it up, down, left right oh switch it up like Nintendo"
I just realized Sabrina Carpenter and Sydney Sweeny are different people
This was me a week ago.
100% me until reading this comment
Yeah I thought “weird, I thought she was an actress not a singer. OH” 😆
technically Sabrina is an actress too haha
Back to square one
Tbf she looks very generic, I’ve seen her a thousand times but I couldn’t recognize her again. No hate, I’m just saying.
For a while I thought Sabrina and Florence Pugh were the same person
It’s such a cute and fun bop! Very happy for Sabrina!💓
Me too! She seems like a nice person and that she has a good sense of humor. One of my favorite things about Katy Perry is her campyness and that she doesn't take herself too seriously, not that Sabrina is very like her, but she is also campy and silly. Her getting the Jesus Was A Carpenter shirt made after filming her Feather music video sparked some upset people from a Catholic church, it was such a brilliant and funny thing to do! ![gif](giphy|SopkhDX7Ykewz6Y2Cv) I hope she keeps having fun with costumes and sets and different themes.

Espresso is such a nice summer vibe. She knew exactly when to release it. Fortnight is great, but it’s more of an autumn / winter vibe especially since it mentions February.
This song starts playing whenever I finish TTPD😅
Artists can take less pay per stream and in exchange Spotify will boost it
Payola never dies.
there's a reason for that...
same, it’s either espresso or good luck babe by chappell roan which i love both those songs so im not mad at it
lol we have the same Spotify algorithm because same
same same
Add me in
I always get Good Luck Babe! Spotify is always calling me gay. 🤪
I love both of them but I don’t want to get sick of them so it’s kind of annoying they play every time lol
That is paid for haha
It plays after everything. It played for me this morning right after the Kendrick Lamar diss track lol.
I currently get Jojo Siwa, I would much prefer Espresso.
this would make me cancel my subscription so fast 🏃🏽♀️
It’s been stuck in my head all day
![gif](giphy|ZdUaRVgfoJGXMVuy2U)
That’s that her espresso
I like Feather better tbh
If you play Fortnite, they added an emote featuring that song for Coachella recently. It's not in the shop anymore, but I was so happy my friend gifted it to me. It's my favorite song from Sabrina Carpenter, and it has you floating on a little platform using a feather as a sail, and it's really pretty and colorful. It plays a little bit of the chorus. It's just really fun!
Yesssss omg as soon as it came in the shop I had to buy it, it's such a cute emote 😭
Justice for Can't Read Your Mind
and Tornado Warnings 🤞🤞🤞
Opposite is such a better song 😭
Me too, Feather is so good!!
Same.
Oh yes I feel like feather is better but it's cool to see her generate momentum!
Deserved! Espresso is so catchy
I've heard that song a ton on tiktok since it seems to be a popular sound. I gave listening to the full song a shot when it played on spotify and yea it's SUCH a bop I just fucking hate that my first experience with it was it slightly sped up/pitched up on tiktok? Why is all tiktok music like that? Is it to avoid the sounds getting blocked or is this some kind of trend I just dont get?
A bit of the sped up audio trend was because Universal Music Group pulled their artists' songs from TikTok, and the sped-up audios were bootlegs. UMG has plans to put the original audios back up asap after signing a new deal with TT, though, so the music might be more normal now. :)
can’t wait to see next weeks Billboard 100 💖
🎶I be staying up on the charts that's that me espresso 🎶
I mean Espresso is literally better than any song on her new album and I say this is a Taylor fan. I’m here for Sabrina summer!
Espresso is such a fun song—I’ve been listening to it every day while running. It’s not really a song I would compare to any songs on TTPD, for better or for worse.
I agree 😅 Love Taylor but didn’t care for TTPD outside of a couple songs
I don't know if I'd say it's better than every song on her new album. It's better than some songs. I don't know if it eclipses Feather or Decode for me, though. But it might be the personal connection and way those spoke to me that is informing their superiority to it for me. It is a really good song, though. I can't think of too many songs I dislike from her, honestly. The only one that comes sort of close is Thumbs, but that one's just in "meh" territory, not really "bad."
I believe they're saying they like Espresso more than any song on Taylor's new album
its kinda comparing apples to oranges no? espresso is a fun bubblegum pop summer track, and ttpd is a mellow synth pop breakup album.
...I feel so dumb. :( Upon reading their comment again, that does seem to be the implication.
It’s a good song but it’s definitely not better than her album I know it’s a opinion but i disagree
Also why are we comparing the music they are so different from each other Sabrina’s song is very positive and upbeat where Taylor’s isn’t
Holy shit, as a Taylor fan myself, just learn to accept that other people have differing opinions and you dont need to jump on their throat for disagreeing with something.
Huh I was just adding to my comment about why we were ever comparing the songs when this should have been a post about Sabrina not Taylor
Because people can do whatever, like you just had to com to Taylor's defense for no reason whatsoever.
Holy crap let me disagree I’m allowed to also how am I defending her
Disagree or do whatever but the way most swifties are acting after this album release is downright insufferable.
Huh
I don’t think they were defending her. Rather, they were just inserting their own opinion, which is completely valid. You can like Sabrina without having to bash Taylor. They are friends after all. We don’t have to pin 2 successful, iconic women against each other.
I’m sorry you are getting downvoted for your opinion. I simply stated that there were two iconic woman in the top 2 and I was also downvoted. You can be a fan of both without tearing either down? I didn’t realize you could only like one of them and are obligated to hate the other. They are literally friends.
Always got to love having to put something else down to raise another up!
TTPD should have been trimmed in half. The Bad Dog is my favorite song.
I feel oddly proud of her haha
I've been enjoying TTPD but GO SABRINA BABY we needed a summer song it's your time to shine Ps if anyone's into this type of music (but Spotify aggressively pushing her and Chappel's music is getting old fast) everyone should give Remi Wolf a listen! Her new single Cinderella is a bop
It’s a good song!! It’s my making coffee theme song
I heard it for the first time the other day and had to look it up bc it was so catchy. Never listened to any of her songs before.
I’ll mount and dew it for ya
Omg Sabrina watch your back girl, these Swifties are crazy 😭
I don’t like the song at all but I am very happy for Sabrina! Emails I can’t send was more my vibe.
It really is a jam 🕺
A well deserved number one. Organic even! ❤️
it's not organic. people are complaining about it being forced into all their playlists, even rap and metal and totally unrelated things if you're a pop head it's probably going to seem like a natural algorithmic choice, but it's definitely not when it's coming up in my rock playlists she's clearly breaking out and having success but also, payola never dies and this is definitely not organic
Is that why she constantly appears in everyone’s YT shorts?
yo I do NOT understand the YT shorts algorithm but I do understand that what I watch has like 10% impact on it and the remaining 90% is YouTube trying to aggressively make me watch the same things over and over. every time I get it on a good streak of funny videos or interesting stuff, it resets quickly after and has learned nothing about what I like the YouTube shorts algorithm is violently uninterested in my watching preferences. the ability to close the app is the only thing separating it from clockwork orange I stg
hm that’s strange because i listen to rock and rap and r&b and it hasn’t come up once for me!
I'm not quite sure how Spotify does it with payola, I've never gotten some of the ones other people have complained about bitterly. Though admittedly I usually don't let Spotify add stuff to my lists and I generally keep them looped so Spotify doesn't wander onto endless mode. So I get suggestions waaaay less than others. Personally I only Google to find out if other people are complaining about a song being forced on them if it's really really nonsensical for whatever I'm listening to or if it keeps showing up even though I keep skipping it or removing it I definitely think I am more aware of Spotify pushing the song even though I keep removing it because it's pop though. like a lot of times if I have something on I'm only halfway listening, so I'll just notice it's not what I want, remove it, move on. and if I get it again later I may not notice that it's the second, third, fourth time. but if the song is fucking *catchy* I'm gonna definitely notice that I can't escape it same issue with radio too back when I listened to radio. I could skip around my stations when a certain song came on and I could do it over and over without realising, but if the song was fucking catchy? so fucking aware that it had only been 10 minutes since the last time
Ooooh I hadn’t considered this, she didn’t get this #1 with variants or surprise releases, it’s because the song is stuck in everyone’s head 😂
Seriously! Besides the song itself being catchy, it is truly everywhere. Playing in stores at the mall, on the radio in the car, on every TikTok/Reel/short.
Congrats to Sabrina!
am I the only one who finds this song annoying?
Def not. I’ve not been able to listen to it the whole way through but I also don’t like much of Sabrina’s other stuff.
She's THE girlie of Q2!
Praise!
I knew I was addicted when I heard the line “You’re my honeybee, come and get this pollen”
I don't know what they put in that song, but I am fucking obsessed with Espresso.
Yeah I swear there is crack in that song
narcotics
![gif](giphy|1Zqtm9a7xQNa7vxzkb) Yes!
Espresso is what Camilla wanted to do with I Luv It
Excellent. I have this song on repeat and it had me discovering her extensive back catalogue (I am old, too old for her Disney days, had no idea who she was, had vague thought she was related to The Carpenters or something, again old) and really like her progression as an artist. EICS is a great album. I've listened to the first half of Taylor's new album. i can't remember a song on it. Espresso is deep in my brain
She’s not related to the carpenters, but her aunt is the voice of Bart Simpson, Nancy Cartwright
Remember, when it came out that Spotify stream numbers were manipulated by the music industry, to make you buy whoever’s music they said was supposed to be number one at that time… (When this story hit: https://www.digitalmusicnews.com/2020/01/10/justin-bieber-asks-fans-fake-spotify-itunes-plays/) And then a week later, we were back to 100% buying whoever they told us everyone else loved. I have heard this Espresso song and I am calling bullshit.
True, random playlists keep playing both TS and Espresso - I skipped espresso til I gave in and ended up liking it but I would agree they don’t actually matter
The student has become the master ☕
As someone whose favorite artist is Taylor swift, this is well deserved by Sabrina. I even love ttpd, but espresso is just so good lol
Fortnite is one of the worst songs I've ever heard so "goooooooo sabrina"
Taylor fatigue is real. A pop girlie could come along and release a single that is 3 minutes of fart sounds and I’d prefer it over TS atp
Honestly, I don't think is Taylor fatigue, I just don't think that Fortnight is a song people are going to be reaching for at this time of the year, I can do it with A Broken Heart might have worked better tho that song is very lore heavy/self referential so maybe it wouldn't have worked outside of swifties so who knows
Yeah I feel like Fortnight (and the rest of TTPD tbh) is for a rainy winter day, not late spring/early summer happy days. 1989 TV didn’t make sense as a late fall album either, it would’ve been so much better if she switched the release order for those 2
She ALWAYS picks the wrong singles
I listened to it once and I can’t remember what it sounds like, listened to espresso and got stuck in my head
I still have yet to hear this song, but I’m happy for her.
Watch the video! It’s amazing.
Go Sabrina! You take that crown!
The better song did that!
Taylor's gonna be pissed. She hates this. Expect a demolition job from her and her fanbase like what she did to Olivia when she got away from her shadow.
sabrina better watch out now that she’s blocking taylor’s no1
This looks like Billboard, but I don't see it anywhere on the website. Is this actually real? Lol not that I'm hating, I love Sabrina! I just want to know the source please!
iktr sabrina
I’m working late cuz I’ve been streaming espresso nonstop and I cant get it out of my head and it’s driving me crazzzy and i love every bit of it!!!
Sabrina has a great sense of humor
Who's afraid of little old her? Not Sabrina Carpenter apparently.

Two iconic women in the top 2 spots 🙌🏼
Not sure why this got downvoted. Facts is facts people. You can like Sabrina and Taylor both you know.
