But wasn’t BL the biggest track all time in Billboard?

 

It spent like 2 years in the top 10 and was #1 after one year of debuting

 

It had an insane run

Yes but shape of you is still bigger. It's got way more digital sales and it's not even close.

BL for biggest, easily. How anyone could say otherwise is beyond me.

Blinding Light was bigger but Flowers is the best one.

Best & biggest, same order:

 

Blinding Lights > As It Was > Flowers

 

Video, I'd give to Blinding Lights. I don't have much of an opinion on the other two.

BL for all but three classics. The GP got it right with these ones

As It Was has less votes than I expected -- it's probably the song I've heard around the most. But Blinding Lights is definitely the most influential.

 

Flowers is the best song & video.

BL is easily the biggest. It's also the best one.

 

All three songs were ubiquitous and unescapable at this peaks tbh.

I don’t know stats but I do have intuition and Flowers just *feels* most universally known. As It Was is completely forgettable and nothing special. Blinding Lights is likely the best one here but it’s been so beat to death, I’d prefer to never hear it again. At least Flowers is timeless and likely never to age. All the middle aged soccer moms love it, and that’s always a sure sign of a massive classic, so that one! :ryan3:

I see Flowers being the bigger one in the long term, but BL is BL and its the best one too for me (not by far tho). Best video would go to AIW, it has iconic feel, even tho none of these 3 have outstanding video, but all have nice ones.
