The highly anticipated album from Paramore, ‘This Is Why,’ was released this month. Despite the band’s five-year hiatus from releasing new material, fans remain loyal, and the album has climbed to the top of the charts, attracting new listeners along the way. Hayley Williams expressed her pride on Twitter for being included in the same list as Taylor Swift and SZA with this album’s success.
Compared to their previous album ‘After Laughter,’ Paramore has taken a different approach, choosing to have fun and move away from their past emo image. This new version of the band has captured the attention of both old and new fans, leading to the album’s success in various categories.
Although Williams believes that a work’s value is what matters most, she couldn’t help but acknowledge and celebrate the album’s positive reception, which resulted in them sharing the top of the charts with Taylor Swift and SZA.
Hayley Williams’ words about being on the same list as Taylor Swift and SZA read:
“This is bananas. We know enough by now to know success doesn’t equal value. That being said, to experience the #1’s (and a #2 between SZA & Taylor Swift) on this album, as this version of Paramore, is such a sweet and surreal moment to celebrate together. Thank you.”
Paramore’s fresh comeback with a new strategy and outlook, which is the opposite of their previous releases, has fans and the band excited to explore the world through a different lens. The cherry on top is making it in the same list as Taylor Swift and SZA. So, if you haven’t already, listening to ‘This Is Why’ might pleasantly surprise you!
