The album sold more than 1.2 million copies at its first week of release, which makes Taylor the only female artist in SoundScan history to have two consecutive albums sell more than 1 million copies in an opening week.
Red leans more towards pop rock than Taylor's previous three albums. Most music critics agree that the 16 songs reflect a more mature and confident artist.
Five tracks from Red were pre-released on iTunes. The title track has sold four and a half million downloads in the United States and also topped the all-genre iTunes Top Songs chart in 32 countries.
Taylor explains why she titled the album Red.
"I think red is a really daring adventurous color and I think it really kind of symbolizes what I wanted to do musically with this record which was make something new and bold and it's definitely that."
"We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" was the first single from Red. Taylor is known for writing songs that deal with her personal relationships. Although she never reveals her subject, many listeners believe that song is about Taylor's ex-boyfriend, actor Jake Gyllenhaal. The 22-year-old superstar says she bared her emotions throughout the entire album.泰勒·斯威夫特习惯于打破销售记录,如今她携新专辑《红》继续这一势头。该专辑在发行第一周已卖出120多万张,这使得泰勒·斯威夫特成为SoundScan统计榜历史上唯一一位连续两张专辑在开卖一周内销量破百万的女性艺人。
《红》较泰勒的前三张专辑而言更倾向于流行摇滚。大多数音乐评论家认同(这张专辑中的)16首歌,体现出一位更成熟更自信的艺术家。
《红》中的5首歌在iTunes上提前发布。主打歌在美国已卖出450万次下载量,同时在32个国家的iTunes热门歌曲综合榜单上位居第一。
泰勒解释了为什么将专辑命名为《红》。
“我认为红色是一个非常大胆又充满冒险精神的颜色,某种意义上代表了我在音乐上想要做的,也就是一些创新大胆的东西,《红》就是这样。”
“我们再也回不去”是《红》中的第一首歌。泰勒因善写有关她的私人感情的歌而著名。尽管她从未透露过被写的对象,许多听众认为这首歌是写泰勒的前男友,演员杰克·吉伦哈尔。这位22岁的超级巨星表示,整张专辑都在表露她的情感。
