As of October 26, 2021... Say Yes - original song - not incl. live versions - has 21,170,196 Spotify streams and on YouTube (the most popular videos on the first page which only play the original song, no live performances, no edits or remixes) have combined 103,734,998 streams. Combined that's at least 124,905,194 Spotify and YouTube streams. It would be interesting to know how many are US streams as the RIAA counts both Spotify and YouTube. If only 60% of these streams were US, it would amass to 499,620 single units on streams alone. Digital and physical sales would easily take this to Gold status if there were this many US streams.

The album surpassed 5 billion streams about a week ago (Spotify + official YouTube videos combined). Its the 48th most streamed female album of ALL time!
