In that case, Im just curious as to the weighting of sales vs youtube views / streaming for lady gaga's promo song "dope"
As I'm sure you're aware it peaked #8 on the hot 100. It did not top any itunes charts or digital sales charts and it did not have an official video on youtube to count towards chart position.
The only thing it did have, was a performance at the youtube awards. Logic says, those views were counted towards the HOT 100 as it peaked at #8.
Did you count an awards shows views towards the charts? if so, how do you jutify that as something that isn't personal bias.
More than happy to admit I am wrong and apologise, but to do so I'm going to need that weighting equation.
