Yes at people quoting bloggers and rolling stone as if they don't have agenda behind their headlines.
results still are what they are...BOMT wins but I'm glad to see so many beyonce stans in here ready to defend though. That's what is good about this forum

results on an ATRL forum poll and THAT'S it.

Crazy In Love. The results that matter.

Spotify:
CiL - 68+ million
BOMT - 34+ million

Vevo:
CiL - 186+ million (uploaded 5 years ago)
BOMT - 156+ million (uploaded 5 years ago)

iTunes 1500
CiL - 1156
CiL remix - 808
BOMT - not charting

Not according to every single receipt.

This CIL vs. BOMT thread has been made on atrl many times already. BOMT always wins because people see the truth.
BOMT has sold more than CIL. BOMT the album also sold more than Dangerously in Love.

The reason CIL has been doing better than BOMT on the radios, charts, spotifty and etc. is because BOMT is 17 years old compared to an 11 year old song. CIL was recently featured in two different hit movie soundtracks and performed at the superbowl.

The answer is clearly BOMT and atrl knows it judging from the poll.

BOMT is iconic.

BOMT is at 25M AT BEST so stop inflating numbers 24/7. It will never cross 30M.

Regardless if it sold 25 or 30 million its a diamond album in the US and sold over 15 million world wide it took Beyonce 4 albums to see them album sales stop trying it BOMT is bigger and more iconic every f##king person alive knows the video and song just the opening beats alone are more iconic

There is a reason why it was featured in those two soundtracks and performed at the Super Bowl. Like, Jesus. Yall are so

It's about the single, not the album so just stop.

Every person alive knows about the video but doesn't watch it more on YT/doesn't buy it more than CIL? I guess the whole galaxy knows about CIL then?

Britney's team is old school and crappy. They don't pitch any of Britney's songs to movies. Beyonce is constantly pitching her songs to movies.

Cut the BS . BOMT is an outdated pop song. In the teen pop era.

Vogue
I Will Always Love You

and many songs that came before BOMT receives more airplay and have more streams. So cut the bs excuses. That excuse wasn't used towards Gaga when you Britney stans were coming for her with BOMT being more streamed saying "It's more streamed/viewed because it's a bigger classic" now was it?

CIL was chosen to feat in those films.

Meanwhile ...Baby One More Time has sold more, its parent albums are selling more and its inspiring many, many more careers.

With another couple of Super Bowl performances and movie features, though, "Crazy In Love" may outsell it one day

Jay-Z did the soundtrack for The Great Gatsby.

Crazy In Love is selling more today = more people are currently buying = more remembered.
Crazy In Love is more streamed today = more people are currently streaming it = more remembered.
Crazy In Love is getting more airplay = radio plays it more than BOMT = more remembered.

It's not that hard.

But hey, let's use receipts from the past and say it's still somewhat bigger despite receiving less airplay, being streamed less and selling less than the true classic, Crazy In Love.

[Artemisia]

BOMT sold as much as it did because it was marketed to the massive teen pop crowd. Advantage: you sell a **** ton of records. Disadvantage: years later, your song is less relevant than big hits that appealed to a wider demographic, like Crazy in Love, for instance.

Hmmm on atrl bomt but in the real world CIL by far

It's not even far behind in video views and its 5 years older

And no ones buying it? They already did bew! All 10 million of them and stop with the CIL catalogue sales its selling what currently 300 copies, is that all you got? its streams and YouTube views then so be it cos that's all its got and as you saying its still selling after 11 years why has it not even sold half of BOMT then? With bigger airplay? Still selling, bigger streamed and featured in 2 huge movies?

Il wait for you to break it down and explain...

they have no ground to stand on.

I don't even say this as a fan but when BOMT comes on the radio EVERYONE (even old and very young people) know the damn lyrics. It's one of the most famous songs of all time.

The only reason why Crazy In Love is more streamed etc is because urban music is still popular especially this time. BOMT is a classic but teen pop is over + it's 6 years older.

But it's currently selling, being more streamed, getting more Al than BOMT ("300 copies" weekly > 0) ...

And why do you guys even try with the "two movies" excuse? It actually proves that the song is a remembered classic since people use it in their movies.

The CIL intro alone is more remembered than any part of BOMT but ok I guess?

Anyway, that might be the case for you, but definitely not in France (and I'm pretty sure it's not the case anywhere).
