So yeah, the YT views DO lie, quite often too. Roar is terrible and just a bit better than Dark Horse.
Also, the G.U.Y. video slayed my whole existence (and MTV is VERY wrong for no nominations) but I've seen that many of my GP friends didn't like it much, especially with the Housewives, Andy Cohen etc they thought it was corny. They all loved Applause though.

YouTube view don't lie
Dark Horse isn't trash. It's a
fun video to watch, at first I hated it, but it's just a fun and colorful video and by the look of it, it looks like the GP wants that instead of some dark-artistic video that failed to reach 200M while being Gaga's biggest radio hit.
Roar isn't terrible at ALL. Again, it's a fun video that everyone, children and adults, would enjoy. A big hit. Think. Why does Roar have 500M views while BTW still hasn't reached 200M views ? Both BTW and Roar had HUGE hype, both had massive first week sales. So why?
The truth is, Gaga's videos aren't as enjoyable for the GP as Katy's, for example.
Youtube views don't lie because people watch the video because they want to for whatever reason.
