Top Ten Tuesday: Taylor Swift "Shake It Off"

So the new Taylor Swift was released last week and debuted at #1. It is the 22nd song to EVER do this. It's a catchy song and I feel like her vocals sound like Hayley Williams's (the singer from Paramore) which is a very good thing. There was some controversy about this song being disrespectful to black people or something, but it was based on the person not having watched the video. Clearly this video is all in good fun. Enjoy!

Here are the other songs to debut at #1 throughout the ages. A lot of great songs. Also a run of American Idol winners. And you see Baauer is the most recent one on there from last year when they added YouTube plays to the calculation of the Hot 100.
