Blank Space ( Song )

  Hey hey!! Hello viewers and welcome to another post of ours in Chi hua hua Brothers.blogspot. This week, our post will be about song.The song we will about to discuss is Blank Space.

  

"Blank Spacee" is a song by American singer-songwriter Tailor Swift from her fifth studio album 1989(2014). It was written by Swift,Max Martin and Shellshock. The song was released to the radio by Republic Records on November 10, 2014 as the album's second single, after "Shake if off" and is the second track on the album. Musically, "Blank Space" is a synthpop song with lyrics that satirize the media's perception of Swift and her relationships.

"Blank Space" was a critical and commercial success, having reached number one on the US Billboard hot 100 following "Shake It Off". Swift became the first woman in the Hot 100's 56-year history to succeed herself at the top spot. It has also been included in numerous year-end critics' lists. The song has also topped charts in Canada, South Africa and Australia. It also charted in the top-10 in numerous countries, such as Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, New Zealand, Spain, and the United Kingdom.

  "Blank Space" is a synthpop song that many critics compared to the works of fellow artist Lorde. It makes fun of Swift's recent exposure in the media about her dating life, portraying herself as "an overly attached man-eater who dates for songwriting material""Blank Space" received critical acclaim from music critics, who commended the song's quality and Swift's self-deprecating tone.PopMatters called the song to be "likely the best of Swift's career and easily a candidate for the best pop song of 2014" and that it "captures the essence of 1989 in all its glimmering, solipsistic glory".New York Times noted the song as a clever metanarrative, commenting that "This is Ms. Swift at her peak. It's funny and knowing, and serves to assert both her power and her primness."^[ In a positive review, Robert Leedham of Drowned in sound recognized it as "It's the work of someone who finds success in misadventure, instead of wallowing in it."Los Angeles Times called it:

  The song topped the Hot Digital Songs charts with sales of 155,000 copies in its first week, making it the second song from 1989 to reach number 1 on the Hot Digital Songs, becoming Swift's ninth number one on that chart. Swift stood at rank three as the artist with the most number-one Digital Songs tying her with Eminem and surpassed Rihanna for the most number-one debuts.The song debuted at number 18 on the Billboard Hot 100. In its second week, the song sold 164,000 copies (up 5%) and moved up to number 13 on the Hot 100 being the Airplay Gainer.In its third week, the song sold 328,000 digital copies (up 100%), spurred by the release of its accompanying music video, and jumped to number one, becoming her third number one single and making Swift the first female artist to replace herself at number one (the number one song of the previous week was "Shake It Off") and tenth overall among all artists.^[ The song remained at number one on the chart for seven consecutive weeks making it Swift's longest reign at #1 besting her previous records of "we are never ever getting together" and "Shake It Off" which peaked atop for three and four weeks respectively. It also helped set a record for the longest period that the #1 spot on the Hot 100 had been held only by female musicians. On the chart issue dated January 17, 2015, it was pushed to the runner up spot as Mark Ronson's "Uptown Funk!" topped the Hot 100. It reached its one-millionth sales mark in its fifth week. As of May 2015, "Blank Space" has sold 3,980,000 copies in the United States.The song stayed in the top ten for 17 weeks including the song's seven week reign at the chart's top spot, making it Swift's second longest time lingering in the top ten, bested only by "Shake It Off" which spent 24 weeks in the chart's top ten.

  The accompanying music video was directed by Joseph Khan, who said that Swift approached him with the idea for the treatment, saying she was all too aware of the jokes made about all of her ex-boyfriends and how she likes to include them in her songwriting. She told him that she wanted to address the general thought of her in the clip in a fun way by playing a crazy villain.The video was shot over three days in September at two different Long Island locations; 12 hours in day one, 18 hours in day two and 10 hours for filming the American Express Unstaged app. Most of the scenes depicting Swift were filmed at Oheka castle in Hunington, New York, while some of the interior scenes were shot at the Woolworth mansion. After two days of filming with Swift, a second unit crew kept going, taking much of the photography that would later be used to construct the world within the American Express Unstaged: Taylor Swift Experience app. The video was partly inspired by A Clockwork Orange. Kahn explained, "There's a lot of symmetrical framing that's Kubrickian, which is a really funny way to approach a pop video. But it's there if you look at the way there's center-framing and symmetry throughout the whole thing,"Swift's love interest in the video is portrayed by model Sean O'pry.

The video accidentally leaked on Yahoo! on November 10, 2014. Kahn tweeted about the accidental early release, "I'll link video later when I think it's clear. I think it may be a mistake Yahoo's part—they may have released it early by accident." To which he later added, "Yup. Yahoo effed up. Wait to see the Blank Space video. Let Taylor introduce it herself. It'll be worth it :)"

On the conclusion, the reason I pick this song is because somehow it related to my love story life. Also, I will put it their official video and the lyrics too.Tata~~
