Lemonly Taylor Swift’s Album Sales for Every Era

We’ll admit, there are definitely a few Swifties among the Lemonly team. To celebrate Taylor Swift’s record-smashing Eras Tour and the news that she’s reclaimed the masters for her first six albums, we created this delightful data viz adding up the album sales from every one of Taylor Swift’s eras.

Our infographic looks at the first-week and all-time album sales for Taylor’s career so far. Originally created in advance of the release of THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT, we’ve newly updated this graphic for 2025 with current data about every Taylor Swift album to date. Swift's twelfth album, The Life of a Showgirl, debuted with a record-breaking 3.48 million pure album sales in its first week, dwarfing every other album debut shown in our graphic so far.
