HDL's Shakira's only H100 #1 single in the US. Girlfriend's Avril's only H100 #1 single in the US. Which single was bigger in the states? Which single was bigger overall worldwide?

HDL by far

They're both pretty well-known, but Hips Don't Lie is iconic and one of the best-selling singles worldwide to date.

Hips don't lie

Girlfriend by far, the first video ever to reach 100 Million Views on YouTube before VEVO existed.

Hips Don't Lie by FAR

Hips Don't Lie was bigger than Girlfriend. It is still even being played on re-currents CHR.

Girlfriend obviously, not even debatable.

Girlfriend. Sold 7.3 million copies digitally in 2007 WW. Biggest selling digital single of the time, first song to reach 100 million views on Youtube, biggest selling song of 2007. Iconic tbh! Hips Don't Lie fits in with Nelly Furtado, Fergie hits of that year. Girlfriend stands alone as an iconic pop song of 2007, and the noughties.

Girlfriend topped the IFPI. HDL didn't. Girlfriend was the first video to reach 100M views as well.
