If sales are generally dying it shouldn't affect Katy's positions on the charts, because other singles sales die as well.
And ofcurse sales are dying, streaming is the new thing.
People don't buy on iTunes when they can listen for free on Spoify or YouTube.
YouTube views define the success of a single mostly.
Therefore, I think This Is How We Do was pretty much a smash and bigger than Uncle and Funeral.
Happy birthday Sam

That's all very true. Katy is very strong with singles though so anything is possible. This Is How We Smash was a streaming force though, yeah >
Just looked at an old article and DH was outselling Roar as of January 2015, but the recent Billboard article shows that Roar is currently outselling DH. The longevity >
Essentially, Firework sold 200k in the last 9 months, DH sold 300k in the last 9 months, Roar sold 400k in the last 9 months.
California Gurls was at 5.7M in January, and wasn't included in the article, so it's safe to assume it's at around 5.8M now given that it probably wouldn't be selling as much as Firework.
