Taylor Swift's "Love Story" Is No. 1 in UK

Posted: March 25th, 2009 at 2:40 pm  |  By: Alison Bonaguro  

Taylor SwiftEverybody knows Taylor Swift just got back from a slew of shows overseas. But in this chat with Chicago's country radio station, US 99.5, Swift has even more good news to share: "I got a call yesterday from my label and they said that 'Love Story' was No. 1 in the UK this week," she said. That's huge news. Even for Swift, who seems to have redefined huge news in country music circles. As for her upcoming tour, she wouldn't give too much away. She does hint around about a couple of cool surprises, though. "The one thing that I wanted was in the encore. And it's the craziest part of the show. But the thing that I can talk about, because I don't want to blow the surprise of the other thing, is that I have a giant castle on the stage," Swift said. No mention of white horses, though.

    Taylor also has a huge role in Kellie Pickler’s new video, “Best Days of Your Life,” which should hit here sometime next week.

    I think kellie is looking for ’success through association’…but i don’t think it will work.

    I agree Kate and would go further and say that it could lose her some fans as well.

    There is nothing wrong with Kellie’s music - Kellie has tons of fans in case you haven’t noticed - her myspace page is full of them.

    It is no secret Alison loves Taylor Swift so do I. All you bored with Taylor fans should take notice that “Love Story” now is the all time most downloaded song in history!! Swift went over the 3 million mark this month. With the U.K. having LS at number one will just increase the total.

    Can’t wait to see the castle - and the other surprises that are in store on the 2009 tour!

    Excellent news - been waiting on her getting up there since the single debuted at #5. The video is also still doing well here.
