"Shake It Off" had over 550,000 in sales, nearly 20 million in video streaming, and around 60 million impressions the week it debuted at Number One on the Hot 100. So SIO had a lot more going for it than just big sales to help it debut at #1. Without Swift's streaming and airplay, "All About The Bass" could've moved to #1.
