Hmm so we are saying that streams and video views determine what's more iconic.
Do we have any other sources of critieria?
Impact, influence, sales WW, memorable performances.
I hope you don't think BOMT is less iconic because one of System of a down's videos has more views.
They have many other videos and one has more views...

And they choose one video...
It's almost as if they are saying the iconic labels are only based on streaming and views.
Not Harlem Shake and gangham style are more ICONIC than their faves.
They are so clever
Wait. I thought the Adele fans were pushing the "it's about her father" shtick.
Is Adele as disingenuous and fake as Gaga and only makes up stories about her songs?
Do Adele fans have a fanbase name? I kind of want to call them the Adelephants. But it's not
really clever, even though it's probably accurate. I feel like only sad, overweight people like Adele.
...Vin
The Adele fans thought that based on her gimmick snippet because she voiced over the TV that she was back and still sad & hurt.
The whole scenario is fabricated and there's a disconnect between the explanation and the lyrics/video.
She's a liar and now a fraud. This is proof that money and success can corrupt anyone.
They want to throw anything out there to make Britney less iconic but only showing how iconic she is because they have gone beyond her genre and started comparisons (cherry picked by the way) with other genres.
They are so clever

Not to mention it has ended up on countless decade and year end lists where most critics called it the most important rock album of the decade. I will not involve sales in this to avoid further embarrassing those FADS
This people wanting system of down syndrome to be a thing because they have one video viewed more than Baby one more time.
BOMT being the standard for the rock genre.
