As you can see by this chart, the official views for Katy Perry's hit 2010 song "California Gurls" has been receiving a big and prolonged spike in views over the last few months.



I think it's also really interesting that the increase in views mainly started in the fall, which leads me to the conclusion that the GP are truly missing Katy's iconic and timeless hits and are thirsty for more! After all it was last fall that it became 2 year's since PRISM's release.

What are your theories for this big increase in views?

That's interesting.

'Calfiornia Love' is also getting a huge boost.

California's time to shine has come, I guess.
