poll Poker Face vs. Diamonds: Bigger Classic?

[Lagerfeld]

 

 

Spotify: 1.4B vs. 1.3B

YouTube: 2.3B vs. 1.3B

I guess objectively, looking at the numbers, it's Diamonds. 

[UnusualBoy]

Isn't PF pulling better daily streams? At their peaks PF was easily bigger too.

[Miichael]

Both are huge, but Poker Face.

[Sex with Rih]

Diamonds is definitely better and more remembered.

This is hard because both songs were smash hits and went 20x platinum on my iPod touch back then

Well, Diamonds came out and was peaking at a time when YouTube was peaking so it'll have more views and PF is some years older than Diamonds and only has 100 million difference on Spotify which is relatively close. 

 

But both were big hits but Poker Face sold more and since both were released during the height of digital sales I think that speaks volumes.

Diamonds, PF is not a classic. It was a huge hit back in the day but that's all.

[naval23]

one was a 16 week #1 on the European Hot 100 and spent 14 weeks in the top 3 alone of the Billboard Hot 100 and was the #1 year end song of Europe of 2009 and #2 in North America

The remembered classic. Poker Face for all and it ain't even close.

It's undoubtedly Poker Face. Some of y'all need to be serious.

Diamonds is still one of the biggest songs ever but Pokerface wins this. 
 

diamonds makes me feel weirdly depressive. Idk why.
