it does

Answer 25

so then taylor swift argument is right because 1989 is a whole lot of people liking it I believe right?

Answer 26

there are 10 people who like the album labeled "Taylor Swift"
there are 5 people who like the album labeled "Fearless"
there are 5 people who like the album labeled "Speak Now"
there are 10 people who like the album labeled "Red"
there are 20 people who like the album labeled "1989"


The total frequency is 10+5+5+10+20 = 50


The album "1989" is clearly the favorite, but is it 50% or more of the entire group? No because 20/50 = 0.4 = 40% which is not 50% or greater


So the claim `at least half of her songs should be from her 1989 album` is false because it should be `40% of her songs should be from her 1989 album`

assuming this survey accurately reflects what all her fans truly want
