Taylor thanks her fans
The singer/songwriter thanked her fans when she wanted to claim her award on stage. According to her, her fans worldwide give her the strength and inspiration to continue making music that moves.
“In the past few years, I have released more music than I did in the decade preceding that. I feel like that’s down to the fact that you, the fans, made it clear that you wanted to hear lots of music. So I found that the more music I made [and] the more music I put out, the happier I was,” she said.
“I have the fans to thank, essentially, for my happiness. I love you more than I can say. And I cannot express how unbelievable it is that I get to do this and that you still care. So, thank you, underlined with 13 exclamation points.”
Her historic AMA run follows the success of her Midnights album, which gained traction in recent weeks. With the album, Taylor became the most streamed song on Spotify. She also bagged all of the Top 10 spots on Billboard’s chart, making her the only artist to sweep the top 10 charts with songs from a single album.
