I think it means more not all people is going to buy a song ok

so it's easy to see the success of the song on a page like YouTube that ALL THE WORLD can see.
billboard is an important countdown yes maybe the most important ever BUT not always represent the true hits there are a lot of #1 songs that now are nothing and other songs that never reach #1 but are wayy bigger
and "Baby" is in that case
example:
rihanna and her awful new song it was like a million weeks in #1 and so what?? the song is not even close to reach the success of "Baby", her song is practically nothing and btw AWFUL (let's not even mention the video) and maybe that's gonna be her biggest hit "according to billboard" but we all know that "Umbrella" is always going to. In the other hand yes "Baby" didn't reach #1 but is always gonna be remember and turn into a classic.
how many big hits of your faves didn't reach #1 and were true hits? A LOT. (specially years ago)
other ex could be "Bad Romance" it wasn't #1 in billboard and is like her 2nd biggest hit after 'Poker Face'...
so dear duca go away with your stupid sale figures and don't said that Youtube views means absolutely nothing beacuse you know you're absolutely WRONG.
YouTube is the future.
