I was singing Hey Stephensus in Psychclass but I wasn't aware I was slaying out loud and it turns out sum boy in class is named Steven & he was all awkward mess
Just listened to Minesus & LS back to back. Wow, both are still those eternal country pop bops, the Lord really did that. But yeah, Mine's build up to the bridge still remains superior to LS's for me, the bridge punches harder too.
1 billion youtube views from this era in like a week?
In less time than that. Don't forget that the SIO BTS videos (combined) have more than 32 million views. So 971 million views from the 1989 era videos. That is ignoring the views of her older videos since August 2014. So she will blow past the Billion views mark for this era in a matter of days, probably this weekend.
HDD is estimating only 62-67k for 1989 this week. Still higher than Fearless in the same week; a reminder of the trajectory:
55k
64k (+9k) counting a few hours of Grammys boost
92k (+28k) counting the full Grammys boost plus Valentine's Day gift boosts, back to #1 and mercilessly blocking the AOTY winner going up over 700%
62k, losing that boost but still #1 thanks to weak release schedule
73k (+11k), not sure why it increased since Billboard doesn't have a comment, last week at #1
