Taylor Swift makes a good return to country in 'I Knew It, I Knew You'

Music news

Taylor Swift has her 15th No. 1 single in the US… and returns to the studio

Taylor Swift once again tops the Billboard Hot 100 with ‘I Knew It, I Knew You’, which goes straight to number 1. The nice country-pop song, included in the soundtrack of ‘Toy Story 5’, inspired by Jessie, thus adds the 15th number 1 of her career.

With this achievement, Swift distances herself from Drake and Rihanna, with whom she was tied, and places herself third in the historical ranking of artists with the most number 1s, only behind The Beatles (20) and Mariah Carey (19). In addition, she adds her ninth direct debut at No. 1, surpassing Ariana Grande as the woman with the most entries of this type.

The single also enters cinema history: it is only the third song from a Disney animated film to reach No. 1 on the Hot 100, and the first from Pixar. One more achievement for a Swift that continues to set records non-stop.

As you can see, Swift didn’t get her first number 1 in the United States until 2012, but most of them have accumulated in the last six years. ‘Opalite’ number 1 arrived last February.
