In this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz examines Taylor Swift’s role at the September 27, 2026 MTV VMAs and the chart activity that followed. Swift entered already holding the No. 1 album, then reached 32 career Moon Person wins with Video of the Year for “The Fate of Ophelia” and the inaugural Artist Director honor. Analytic Dreamz covers the “Patient Zero” premiere, the projected 150,000-plus copies for The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore, Madonna’s return and post-show iTunes movement, and Stevie Wonder’s anniversary EP climb. The segment places the night inside Swift’s existing commercial momentum rather than treating the VMAs as its origin.

I know that ain't who I think it is. I know that ain't who I think it is. No, I know that ain't. I'm just saying, like, I know that the biggest musician ever objectively speaking. And she's at, she's in Kansas, cheering on her husband. I mean, her fans probably don't like that. I just don't like it, man. I mean, imagine not only is she showing her love to her husband in Kansas at the Kansas City Chiefs game, but what if she actually made a whole track just declaring her love for her husband? I mean, obviously her fans will love it, right? Shefford. All right, my fault. Anyways, ladies and gentlemen, it's time to get into the one and only Taylor Swift. As of course, all jokes aside, as just Taylor Swift, you know, of course showcasing her love for her husband
and talking about how, you know, that's my husband literally pointing to her ring. You get the point, right? That's not what we're here for, though. When it comes to the actual impact, the notorious Mass Effect of the one and only Taylor Swift, safe to say she has an impact like none other, because of course, as you can see right here, ladies and gentlemen, I'm just going to bring this ring up. Yeah, let's bring this ring up. As you can see right here, Taylor Swift is percolating all throughout the top 50. Now, usually I don't bring up my entire future chart analyst, because I like to say as my sources are made up, you know, I'm saying I've been doing this for too long for people not to understand or see the type of predictions we have and they come to fruition because we're looking at the actual analytics. So anyways, with that being said, this is future chart analytics, slated for October 10th. And as you can see, the person that was screaming, that's my husband, put out four tracks, ladies and gentlemen, only four on a track that already had, let me see,
on a track that already had 12 tracks, right? So she put out four additional tracks on the album that already had 12 songs, right? And those four tracks are percolating in the top five. I can't you not. So of course, we already talked about patient zero, but the main thing I was going to get into for this particular segment was pink. I wouldn't know what was Babylon as that was the other track that we're going to get into them. We're also going to get into pink clouding by one that start off for Babylon, because of course I've already talked about Cleveland. The Swifties are safe to say they're like that. I just don't like it. Man, like that one bit. I just don't like that shit, man. Now, obviously I'm exact. I'm exaggerating a little bit. Shout out to everybody who follows my clipping channel. They wasn't too mad. They was basically like, oh, it's not all Swifties, but they wasn't like super irate. I basically pointed out, Catella Swift is happily in love, made a track title Cleveland, which is literally her husband's hometown, and people just completely trashed the track. They was like, we want you to be miserable forever. I'm saying, I mean, they ain't say that verbatim.
That's basically how they got their point across. It's about traction. Cleveland saying they don't want to hear that. So with that being said, ladies and gentlemen, somebody line because it's the third most played track in the world. Now, sometimes I have seen this pattern before. Is it okay? I got my dope on me. I say all the time that Drake is my favorite musician. Everybody says that, oh, Drake is this. Drake is that I don't listen to Drake, and then the numbers come out. And I'm like, hold on now. You know, this is not a political channel. But why people say that I'm supporting some, and then that particular artist ends up being the most played artist in the world. What an actual you guys. You know what I'm saying? It's almost like somebody just lying just for public perception. Tell us with has the most played track in the world or is projected to with a patient zero projected to be the number one most played track in the world. Cleveland said to be the third most played track in the world. Bad belongs said to be the fourth most played track in the world. And of course, pink clouding is said to be the fifth most played track in the world.
Now, of course, we're going to go through the rest of the tracks because she has a whole bunch, a bunch of other tracks that's percolating in the top 100. I have all of the analytics. And of course, I only did this for Drake. You know, I'm saying, is it okay? I got my dope on me because of course he dropped like a million songs with the Iceman project release, dropping like three albums, right? So he had all type of tracks in the top 100 when that project came. But when it comes to Taylor Swift, not only is it for tracks in the top five, but if her four new tracks in the top five, but of course her older tracks are re charting on the charts. And we're going to go through the entire one. As you can see right here, vote a fate of a failure as a that went really close. A fate of a failure. As you can see, number 13 re entered into the chart. So the reason why I showed that specifically is just to highlight how Taylor Swift is literally in the league of of her own. I said, from an objective standpoint, throughout the whole year of 2026, I believe Ella Langley is definitely the MVP in the year of 2026, because she put out objectively wanted a best performance tracks of all time.
And that is why you don't see the four new tracks one, two, three, four. You see choosing Texas still at number two. Even with all the new traction from new tracks from Taylor Swift, right. So choosing Texas one of the most best performing tracks of all time, even the biggest act in the world, putting out new tracks can only displace the track by one slide. So it's it's led to number two. We'll see if it ends up going back up to number one, because I know Ella Langley, probably saying to herself, I know that I think it is every time the superstar drops. And there having some traction, some all time traction here comes the biggest gangster in the music industry. I know that I know I think it is every time drag drop. Every time bad bunny drops. Every time Kanye drops. That's probably wasn't the best example, but you get the point Taylor Swift will let you have your moment and it quickly remind you who the top dog in the music industry is insane.
Because of course in the midst of this right, she did put out a whole collaboration with Disney literally it was Disney and Taylor Swift for the toy story track for the toy story movie. And it was it was the main single for the movie. I knew it. I knew you I covered that. When did I cover that because specifically when you look at toy story. I covered that June 10th, 2026 got into all the details. So we're not going to do that here. But when it comes to this being the 22nd most play track in the world, just keep in mind. This came out a while ago. This could have easily stepped on choosing taxes, but of course choosing taxes is in the league of its own. So of course, it's still popular. I mean, it's the biggest artist ever. And then Disney. I mean, that's the like a match made in heaven. That's like Katie joining the Warriors. Like it's just hard to beat that team up. So of course it did well. But when it comes to Ella Langley, shoes and Texas is still one of the most notorious mass affecting tracks that we've ever seen in the history of music creation.
If you don't believe me, choosing Texas objectively has beat out every other track for the amount of weeks spent at number one. I get you. I think the billboard track has been billboard charts has been around since like the 80s and the 90s is been some time. It's been quite some time. So yeah, Ella Langley accomplished unthinkable, done, fathomable, which using Texas. But when getting into Babylon specifically, because of course I did say I'm going to get into some of the newer tracks on these specific segments. So this one specifically about Babylon. If you don't know when you look at the actual hook of the track Babylon, it's a Taylor says quote, you never knew that it was Babylon till it was gone. And that's bars right there. I'm saying. But then you know, I'm saying I'm like, so basically this points at the ancient mess, messo, Potemian city. Hopefully I said it right famous and then ruined. And of course the song follow someone who left a small town, cap a relationship unofficial and only later, longs for what he dismissed and Swift RR had already used the image on evermore's cowboy like me with the whole hang my lips like the gardens of Babylon. So Taylor Swift really loves her Babylon references. And here it goes again, which is probably why it's the fourth most played track in the world.
So of course going or capitalizing off of that is other tracks we already gotten to patient zero. We already gotten to Cleveland. And of course you just talked about Babylon, but the main thing that wanted to get into outside of these tracks. Of course we have pink cloud and that we're about to get into. But then after that we're going to get into the rest of the future trial analytics, because this is just the top 25 right. Let's get into the top the future trial analytics for Taylor Swift in the top 100. Let's get into that and pink clouding right now.
