Taylor Swift is currently juggling numerous projects and achievements, all while setting her sights on the future. From scoring billionaire status to earning the title of Time Magazine’s 2023 Person of the Year, Swift has certainly been on a roll in the past year. Adding to these impressive feats, one of her all-time hits is making a comeback, picking up steam bit by bit. The song’s unexpected resurgence has caught many off guard, with the sky’s limit for future growth.

The single from ‘1989’ has just marked another milestone on Spotify, leading to Taylor Swift’s re-entry into the global Spotify chart.

Taylor Swift reappeared on the charts with staggering streaming figures

Reclaiming its place on the global Spotify chart at #193, the second track from ‘1989’ and a front-runner for Taylor Swift’s best songs ever, ‘Blank Space’ has recently resurfaced with a bang. With an impressive 1.083 million streams on the platform, the song’s resurgence hinted at a potential enduring climb in the weeks ahead. The gears of the ‘Blank Space’ revival started turning last year when Swift announced her revamped version of ‘1989’. 

Swifties, ever-loyal to their idol, rallied around the original album following the mid-concert revelation of ‘1989 (Taylor’s Version)’, thrusting it back into the top 10 of the Billboard 200 ranking. And now, with the success of the revamped album, ‘Blank Space’ is once again turning heads and resonating with music lovers. But what makes it so exceptional that millions of fans are still drawn to it, even ten years later?

‘Blank Space’ has already secured its place in music history with an impressive eight platinum certifications and a sale of eight million copies in the United States alone. Here are some of the elements in the song that continue to strike a chord deep within the hearts of fans.

What makes Blank Space so special? 

‘Blank Space’ is where Taylor Swift flexed her pop muscles, just as ‘All Too Well’ and ‘Folklore’ showcased her storytelling side. The melody was infectious and clever, with a genius flow from verse to pre-chorus to chorus. But what set it apart was that Taylor Swift came up with the song during a time when people were turning her hits into blind items in gossip columns and even titled her a “serial dater”. ‘Blank Space’ was Swift’s way of reclaiming her narrative.

One can almost picture her rolling her eyes when she sang “I’m insane“. Swift nailed down everything the media and her haters were gossiping about her between 2012 and 2018. On top of that, the music video was a work of art in itself, featuring a grand castle, a genuine horse, and fancy cars. That said, it is no surprise the song remains iconic for fans who keep hitting the replay button.
