Like, shut up it's insulting to the woman and the already fantastic career she's had up to this point. To think that she's going out of her way or breaking her neck to thwart any semblance of commercial success is hilarious. Maybe she just stopped stressing about that side of things and is letting the chips fall where they may for the time being. Besides, superstars can't really sabotage their careers/business. Their record labels and other sponsors, however, can. Explain Formation’s release to me please

The problem is what people didn't realize before is that that doesn't work because you can only like watch something so many times for it to count. or like it wont count if its within certain parameters, i dont remember the specifics. im sure someone on here must. I do research. Youtube only counts views for 1 video from 1 IP address every 6 hours ( not sure about this time frame).

Does putting Formation on private not sound like sabotage to you? + Bey is the CEO of her own label. Wasn't Formation only temporarily unlisted because she wanted to get most of the views through Tidal? That's not sabotage, that's trying to get some business to a streaming service you're heavily invested in which makes sense. An artist can upload music and mv to their YouTube/Vevo account but because of copyright, record labels have access to them as well and a considerable amount of say-so. If any sabotage is going on, it's probably on the part of Columbia, not her. I will say no more on this here because I don't want to derail the thread.

So Columbia put the song out for free for 3 months? For what purpose? They've never done that before. Please, don't say anymore, becasue in my mind, my opinion of you is that you lack a lot of knowledge on the subject of Beyoncé and sabotage. And I don't at all feel like lecturing today.

peterstyles13 Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) Interesting how non-Swifties are casually ignoring the fact that Taylor is #1 in the majority of the big markets in their comments here. It's really funny because I vividly remember some users from this thread saying she's local in the past Edited November 21, 2017 by peterstyles13
Grim Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Taylor has 2 eras worth of videos that count; of course she’d be high.

She's not only #1 in the US but also Japan, UK, Germany, Canada, Sweden and Australia. Using the ''she has 2 eras!1!!!'' excuse is just an easy way to not acknowledge that she's powerful outside the US as well, more than the majority of pop girls. Especially in asian countries where she destroys every western artist (with the exception of South Korea). Edited November 21, 2017 by peterstyles13

You can search by artist and then restrict it to the country to get their views from that country. I did it for every pop girl who has been big in SK and those are the Top 3.

Also, Ariana is extremely close to her in Japan, especially given that only one month of SIO is missing from these totals, yet 4 months of Problem and 1 month for Break Free and 2 weeks for Bang Bang are missing for Ariana.

Who are you to say no one says this? Pretty sure I'm in Taylor-related threads more than you and some users here DEFINITELY say this . And views aside, Taylor is far bigger than Ariana in Japan. Just compare their sales, it's not even close. Shake It Off is the longest-charting western song in Japan's history.

What does this have to do with you fuming over comments not said in here and you angry people aren't mentioning that Taylor is #1 in certain countries?

Timber Posted November 21, 2017 Posted November 21, 2017 Praise Taylor, or get a lashing. ----- Taylor is the queen of YouTube in general. It's no suprise to me that she topped a lot of these lists.
