n0ne 13,105 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 So I just got Perfect Illusion on iTunes. Before that I was replaying the audio on Gaga's YouTube, when I wanted to listen to PI. Now I'm conflicted; I wanna play it on iTunes and get its plays up. Get it in my top 25 most played songs (which is mostly ARTPOP and Born This Way songs) ASAP. But I also wanna stream it, so it helps the song. Maybe I will alternate between iTunes and YouTube/Spotify every other time I listen to it. What are you guys doing? Playing it more in your downloaded music or playing it more through streaming services? Or a mixture of both? "My people… need to let our bitchiness out.

HolyDelRey 21,101 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 If you're outside the US make sure to add VPN and stream it though VEVO. After every play, REFRESH the page!

I read somewhere that you can only do like 300 views a day on youtube! but idk if thats correct or not! The best way to do it on Spotify is to create a playlist of 3 or 4 songs which will include Perfect Illusion too, you can add Gaga's hits too such as (BR, Judas) & etc too. When it comes to YouTube and Vevo, as far as i know there's no limit, but the best thing you can do its to download Hola VPN, and Auto Refresh so the page will be reffreshing everytime the song its over. The page on YT must be reffreshed in order your views to be counted The only prisons that exist are ones we put each other in.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like when the songs I love the most on my iTunes have a lot of plays. It's just another indicator to myself that I love and enjoy those songs timelessly, if that makes sense. Is that weird? Lol But I add a lot of music to my iTunes pretty frequently and focus almost specifically on that new music until I download more music. I do go back and listen to older stuff, but since I already have a lot of music and add more music pretty frequently, my play counts for songs on average aren't as high as they used to be or as high as I want them to be. My music taste is too eclectic; I like too much music lol "My people… need to let our bitchiness out.
