KleinGa 18,177 Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 This is VEVO certified This has two billion views What does this mean? NOTHING. Will we remember these singers years from now? NO. Are they legends? NO. Did they have any impact? NO. Youtube is just short term gratification (hate: Rebecca or sometimes for entertainment: PSY) but it's just short term. Longterm refers to the impact like this: (being inducted into the Songwriter's hall of Fame) - one of many examples Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe that How Deep Is Your Love by Calvin Harris will reach one billion views before any Gaga video. Katy's video views had me shook. I know YouTube isn't everything, but I don't understand why Gaga struggles to even get Vevo certified in an age where that certification means nothing. I know it shouldn't mean anything, but views are how many people watch the video, it makes it a waste for Gaga to pour her heart and soul into something for lackluster reception. Why is she struggling? Does she need collabs? It seems everyone and their grandma has a video with one billion views, I'm confused. Okay... In my opinion, this entire thread completely goes beyond what Gaga stands for... Lady Gaga has proven she is an artist. Sure, it is her job and career to put out material for the public and her fans to enjoy. But I don't think Gaga creates her videos for a billion views or to go viral. She makes it because its something she is passionate about. Videos and music are types of art. She has made it more than clear she loves art and makes music because it is her passion. To say that she's wasting her time making videos because of "poor reception" is reaching to places that don't exist in Gaga's world. The issue with stan culture is literally that we all focus on numbers. If the views on Gaga's videos are causing you such sadness and stress, maybe you should learn to stop caring about the numbers and enjoy what she gives us or go stan a mainstream pop girl who can't do half the things our queen can do. She has made her impact, she has made her millions and now she is just doing what she loves... LET HER LIVE.  Thank you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Gaga is an artist and she doesn't create a video with the sole intent and purpose of going viral, but it still is disheartening to see her efforts receive less views. All About That Bass has two million while G.U.Y has 120 million combined? It's frustrating to see her recent videos struggle to reach milestones that are easily attainable by lesser artists. It makes it bittersweet. She's an artist with so much freedom, yet it doesn't reach the majority of the gp. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To Psy's credit, he's incredibly hardworking and has had longevity in his native country of South Korea; Gangnam Style was not expected to become a worldwide phenomenon and many people treat him as if that's the only thing he's ever done, while it was actually a song off of his sixth album. äżșăźćć©ăŻæșăăăȘă Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

VEVO views are not anything to be depressed about. Gaga has her health, her family, her many talents, a mansion in CA, a sold out world tour coming up, a movie and soundtrack coming out, a career she loves, and fans she loves that love her...all by the time she turned thirty. VEVO views mean NOTHING! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
