Taylor Swift’s Reputation has always been one of her most polarizing albums, but for many fans, it remains a personal favorite. As speculation fades about the possibility of a Reputation (Taylor’s Version), listeners in the United Kingdom continue to embrace the original — and this frame, the set enjoys one of its biggest weeks in some time on the charts.
Reputation Appears on Multiple Rankings
This week, Reputation is one of six Swift albums on the U.K. charts. It’s the only one of that bunch to claim space on four separate tallies — double the number of appearances that any of her other titles manage. The collection rises on the Official Albums (No. 75), Official Albums Streaming (No. 71), and the Official Physical Albums charts (No. 81).
Reputation Returns to the Sales Ranking
In addition to its growth on three tallies, Reputation also returns to the Official Albums Sales chart. On that roster, which looks at the top-selling titles across the nation, Swift’s set is back at No. 91. The bestseller has now appeared on the list for 166 weeks, and it has previously reached No. 1. That’s true of nearly every tally where it currently appears in the U.K., and now just the sales ranking…though it did stall in third place on the streaming chart.
Three Taylor Swift Albums Return to Multiple Charts
Reputation is one of four Taylor Swift albums that appear on more than one ranking in the U.K. this frame. Alongside Lover, Folklore, and The Tortured Poets Department, the set is present on both the Official Albums chart and the Official Albums Streaming ranking — and all four rise on both lists.
Other Taylor Swift Sets Also Rise
Swift’s other U.K. chart wins include Midnights and 1989. Those two return to the Official Albums Streaming chart, with Midnights back at No. 92 and 1989 reentering at No. 99. Those two titles only live on the ranking of the most-streamed projects in the country, though they both enjoyed lengthy stays on several other rosters as well.
Why Reputation (Taylor’s Version) Isn’t Likely
Swift began re-recording her first six albums after her former label sold the masters, so that she could own — and profit from — her music. Recently, she acquired the rights to the original Reputation, which means she now benefits financially from streams and sales of that original edition. Without the same business incentive that fueled earlier re-recordings, a Reputation (Taylor’s Version) doesn’t seem likely.
