So I was unfortunately very young when JD and PF were released so I couldnt really experience how huge they were. So I was wondering what would their stats be if they were released in the streaming era? Like imagine they are as big and popular as they really were but released in like 2015 or 2016 instead of 2008-2009. I read somewhere that the original videos which got deleted when they uploaded the ones we have now on vevo had like 200-300 million views both which is an enormous number for a video uploaded that time. (not sure if it is true tho)

So what would their spotify numbers, youtube numbers, sold digital copies, and peak radio audience be in your opinion? I know it is hard to tell but I would like to get more information about the success they had and compare it to today's hit songs to get a clearer picture about the dominance Gaga had that time

(I hope it makes sense and sorry for the typos)

Assuming they would have had the same amount of popularity, but in the streaming era, they probably would have only sold 1-2 million, but have 1b+ views on YT each, 500m+ Spotify plays, and a radio peak of over 175m AI.

One tip/request to all of you guys: Let's stop using abbreviated song namesand just spell them out? It will save a lot of time while trying to figure out what exactly you mean.

This.

I think of Rihanna's "Work" or Drake's "One Dance." They were technically as big success-wise but sold a lot less because of the current sales climate. So somewhere like that, and Bad Romamce/Telephone would have both went #1.

Well, everybody knows what JD, PF, MTN, BR, BTW means. The abbreaviations are ok when we talk about some well known songs.

EDIT: I see u're newbie. You'll get used to the abbreviations:)

We should keep them, but for about two months I was extremely confused when I first joined, so I can see where he's coming from.

I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill.

I'm not  new at all. But it takes some effort to figure it out. In this case, I also read as Jewels & Drugs. I insist: just spell it out and you'll make everybody's life much easier. ;-)

In the meantime, wanna support my FB page? I am trying my breakthrough as an actor and my page could use some exposure. THANKS in advance, guys!

If you want to get people's attention, you should talk in a language that people can easily understand. Otherwise, you'll lose your audience's interest! ;-)
