I mean, I can find comfort in the fact that TayLORD is going to surpass Katy soon on YouTube & that YouTube views don't say much about star power (J.Lo has tons of views yet can't sell an alberm to save her life; Cyndi's classics have WAY more views than Madge her gay disco regulars, etc.) but it still HURTS.
When a song sells nearly 10M and goes #1 in majority markets I don't think anyone cares about YouTube views. Especially in 2011.
I guess it's a better illustration of how quickly the song lost momentum. That tends to happen with a big award show premiere sometimes. Part of Me teas. I see it happening with Bad Blood too.

Katy's album sales are still so average for the amount of views and single sales she achieves.
You shouldn't look at album sales like that. There's no reason for them to be tied together and dependent on each other. In reality it's amazing single sales + very decent album sales. Any artist that can move 4.1 million (adjusted figures) WW in this day and age is not average.
Quote:
In a half-century, I'm unlikely to plop my grandchild on my knee and say in an old-timey voice, "I remember when Katy Perry's Prism was the talk of the town!" Prism is not an epochal pop release, especially when one remembers the claims of cultural appropriation, the hammy "Birthday" video and the regretful RiFF RaFF remix that were included in its promotional cycle. But that's the point: even a flawed Katy Perry release has been bulldozing, another comfortable victory to follow a blowout win. Perry has once again slapped commercial stratospheres that other artists would kill to graze, and when she takes the Super Bowl stage next month, she'll have plenty of reasons to roar.
