RenegAde 19,047 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I mean I'm not sure I know any other song that achieved what it did in all ramifications -It topped all the charts in all the entertainment capital territory's -Won all the major awards possible ,Oscars ,grammys ,bafta -Sold over 10million in less than 2 years -its heading to a billion views on YouTube in less than two years - it's internationally recognisable I mean name another song that achieved all this in the same major and time that shallow did.

berlinforme 5,267 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Subjectively: It's one of the most successful songs in the last decades. Especially looking at reception and awards (most awarded song ever ). Objectively: I guess Shape of You and others were more successful from a commercial perspective. Also I don't know if a billion views on Youtube in two years is still a big thing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blastertoyo 22,728 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 If it sells as well as Shape Of You or I Will Always Love You then the GP will see it as such it’s already outsold Just Dance so it’s done really well please enlighten me to death Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Born in Chromatica 7 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Well, one thing is for certain, it certainly deserves more sales than Shape of You which I think is the best selling single in history . Spoiler FaShIoN iS mY pAsSiOn! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But musical success isn't just about sales right . I bet shape of you wouldn't make it on any "best songs of the decade list" . Shallow has the awards , the charts , the views , the sales , the cultural relevance . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KatieJudasGaga4 67,907 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 It's one of Gaga's most well known songs and it has the success, the critical reception and the appeal. While I don't think it was the most successful song of the last decade, its definitely up there and it will for sure be remembered as one of the most well remembered classic movie songs of all time.

CakeLikeLG 6,275 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 No lol but it's probably the biggest hit of 2018 which is enough live each day like Gaga might drop an album Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
