The result? Swift managed to do in one week what no other album released in 2014 could do in the previous 42: sell a million copies. Within three weeks, she had made it to 2 million. At this point, 1989 has sold more than the combined total of 2014’s next three biggest releases — Sam Smith’s In the Lonely Hour, Eric Church’s The Outsiders and Coldplay’s Ghost Stories.
