Hotline felt bigger because it was a cultural phenomenon, and the video was huge. Like it was everywhere from social media, to people doing parodies, to real life, etc
But stat wise One Dance is doing better in sales, on radio, and on streaming. It's weird.
It's sorta like how Bad Romance *felt* like Gaga's biggest hit because it was a cultural phenomenon, but statistic wise Poker Face just did better.
She's still #2 on UK iTunes (I think)
