You guys are trying to argue multiplatinum Grammy winning number 1 hits are somehow not smash hits because they don't have 1 billion streams is so funny to me. 

 

Leave the house please. it's for your own good.

Does it also count if songs were only hits in countries like Botswana and Kazakhstan? :gayriahcat1:

lol that user was specifically comparing their chart peaks because you implied that TTWE was local and only a "cute hit" in the US. They brought the receipts and shown where it was not just a hit in the US but actually charted top 10 in more countries that YBWM.

Chart peaks solely don’t define a hit. Especially if we’re talking about Britney. She usually lacks the longevity factor.

The swiftie who created the thread thought Taylor had big hits like MJ/Madge and belittled Janet. ezgif-5-b867177c5f.gif.8dbf45922b041ea98

 

I can see why he got so many thumbs down. ezgif-5-b867177c5f.gif.8dbf45922b041ea98

Because ATRL is full of middle aged people who downplay the success of younger artists.

 

Janet, for instance, does not enjoy the same level of success as Taylor and numerous other female artists.

Hits linger much longer today because consumption is free. Taylor is also benefiting from her peak, people revisiting her discography, her rerecording gimmick and the evergrowing market. At the time TTWE was bigger globally than YBWM.

Right now in here, it's literally the opposite

 

YOU are trying to downplay other artists, JUST so you can uplift Your Own Fav :ahh:

No it wasn't, stop lying. The difference in terms of US units alone is huge. TTWE was compeletely radio driven like all Britney singles of that time. No wonder the album was a huge flop too.

Most Janet hits were extremely local.

Doesn't Really Matter was a cute hit in the US and that's all. Far from smash hit. Same goes for Till The World Ends.

Doesn’t really matter was huge in Asia they even used in their video games like dance dance revolution and Japanese artist covered it. Lol

The charts positions are literally posted there. Taylor only charted on the British Empire + Sweden. It's there for you to see. TTWE was bigger.

No it wasn’t. It was a digital smash as well in the US, plus globally it held strong in all markets despite you guys trying to rewrite history. At the end of day You Belong With Me was a global bomb and only did well in the US. Using streams from her Karaoke Versions in 2023, which peaked even worse, will not change that.

Well, thank you captain obvious lol but that ain't what you was discussing when talking about TTWE or any of Janet's hits in that post. You SAID that TTWE was a local hit and you got proved wrong. Just own that.

Anti-hero spent 8 weeks at number one and Cruel Summer is on it's third (or fourth) despite being four years old. You think any Beyonce song from this decade is on par with that?

Back in the day of Michael, Madonna Janet and Britney only USA, Western Europe, Australia and Japan had official charts which made them "global" and this forum has a high ammount of fans from that era.
