News of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour was met with so much excitement, emotion and ticket demand in November 2022 that the concerts could become one of the biggest runs of live shows in the history of pop music. It would be a remarkable accomplishment, but not all that shocking considering the multitude of record-breaking achievements Swift has managed to amass since she first arrived on the music scene in 2006. On her way to becoming the definitive musical icon of her generation—over the course of 10 albums in 16 years—Swift has created an impressive catalog of work that would be Hall of Fame–worthy even if she called it a career tomorrow.
