In one fell swoop, Taylor Swift earned the 12 biggest streaming weeks in the United States for songs released in 2025 thanks to the performance of her record-breaking new album The Life of a Showgirl.
On Billboard’s Streaming Songs chart dated Oct. 18, Swift occupies the entire top 12 of the chart with the dozen songs from her Billboard 200–topping new album, with each song possessing more streams in the Oct. 3-9 tracking week than any other single-week sum by a song released in 2025.
Leading the way: “The Fate of Ophelia,” which concurrently debuts atop the multimetric Billboard Hot 100, as previously reported. The song earned 92.5 million official U.S. streams, the largest week for any song since user-generated content streams were fully removed from the Billboard charts as of the rankings dated Sept. 19, 2020.
The No. 12 song, “Honey,” accumulated 42.2 million streams in week one, which exceeds the previous top week for any song released in 2025, which was achieved by HUNTR/X’s “Golden” toward the Billboard charts dated Sept. 6 (35.3 million).

Her now-68 top 10s on Streaming Songs also place her second all time, again behind Drake’s 105.
