The Sweet Escape: 622,120,353 (+487,130)

Hollaback Girl: 619,425,289 (+325,346)

 

The Sweet Escape was infamously blocked by Akon's own "Don't Matter" but had massive longevity charting for 40 weeks and making #3 on 2007's Year-End chart.

 

Hollaback Girl was a 4 week #1 smash and the 2nd biggest hit of 2005 in the USA.

 

Did talent win or lose?

 

 

 

 

The Sweet Escape is a timeless hit , when Hollaback Girl is just a 2000s hot track.

Cool is still THAT ***** 

 

Her best song

actually talent won since TSE is miles better

Cool is still not the #1 so yeah, talent really lost

Cool >>>

But talent lost when What You Waiting For is outstreamed by these overrated bops

Talent def won

Neither are anywhere close to being her best songs or even in the top half of their parent albums. 

Cool deserves both their streams combined but "this **** is bananas" is the definition of ICONIC 

Talent won.  

 

Woo-hoo, yee-hoo
Woo-hoo, yee-hoo
Woo-hoo, yee-hoo
Woo-hoo, yee-hoo

Talent won

Yes the REAL TALENT lost

No, Hollaback Girl is annoying

Where's her best song rank?

 

 

I don't like either songs tbh, so DOUBLE LOSE!

A classic bop but 4 in the Morning/Early Winter deserves >>> her ballads in general deserve much more love.

The Sweet Escape is the better song but talent won't win until What you waiting for or Cool becomes her most streamed song. 

The Sweet Escape Is her biggest hit in most countries so it's not surprising. Hollaback girl is only bigger in the US. It should've always been above it. 

Hollaback Girl is really grating if you're not in the mood for it

 

Talent won!

4 in the Morning isn't Gwen's most streamed song so talent lost anyway

Ooh talent really won! Love Hollaback Girl, but The Sweet Escape is literally perfect

Gwen's best song though Cool is second and quite low .

TSE is WAY better than HB

 

But as other people said, What You Waiting For, Cool and 4 in the Morning >>>>

The Sweet Escape is the better song so...
