Do you think this video's views are real?
 

Seriously?

Damn - That's a lot of views for someone I have never heard of...

I like this comment "She is like Adele's happy twin sister :D".....

I'm pretty sure that the count is correct, since it's a popular song all over the world. In the music industry, content is not king...

That was the fourth best-selling song of 2014, here's the best-selling from the same year. So yeah, all seems fine!

God I am out of touch - I have heard of it or her...

Did you spent your last two years under the stone? LOL :D

I hated this fucking song so much, it was played so much on the radio.
This song makes me wanna throw up when i hear it, makes me cringe everytime.

Same happened to me, though did like it the first few listens

kind of frustrating when you are not happy to hear song like that, isnt it ?:winkwink::winkwink::winkwink::1orglaugh

Its a cool song

yea it seriously has the opposite effect. It's such a simplistic, stupid song, and all those mindless idiots who seriously get happy from a song that says 'im happy'... ugh.
Then again i get happy of crazy depressing songs so there might be something wrong with me :winkwink:

Yeah - There is nothing like a bit of Leonard Cohen to cheer you up:Oh crap...

How old are you guys?

No, my point is that it has way more views than more popular songs.

Bot nets as video promo tools?

If you have never heard that all about the bass song, then you must seriously be sheltered from civilization. It's on the radio, loud speakers at stores, TV commercials, movies, etc, etc.

Not really. Find almost any Taylor Swift video and it has over 1 Billion views. The secret is to find songs that are popular with kids, or younger people. They're the ones watching the videos. You won't find too many Yo-Yo Ma Youtube videos with over a billion views, and that dude is a musical genius.

Look at every musician on this top list. It's all kid pop music.

Happy is awesome, but the 24 hour version is pure awesomeness Pharrell Williams - Happy

I still think that you have your own definition of "more popular" because this song was in uk top 40 1st place for a while MEGHAN TRAINOR | full Official Chart History | Official Charts Company

Yeah. I wouldn't care if I never heard it again though.

This is an awesome cover:

All About That Bass - Postmodern Jukebox European Tour Version - YouTube

Won't let me embed this video for some reason ...

I prefer the parody version.

I love Megan Trainer. She has an awesome personality too.

Love her and Charlie Puth together. Her butt looks fabulous in this video.

Know what it is, never actually paid attention to it ...

That's so much better than that one in the OP - Hilarious...

Very surprising but i do know songs and have many views

A cover of the song that's actually decent

Blimey - Even I think that blonde girl is hot - Bitch can sing too!..

Number 1 is bot net popular. Proven. Prolly most of that others are promo dept. bot hits.
Or people are as dumb as fuck and getting dumber if that shit is popular.

That depends on what radio station you listen to.

I've never heard it either.

I wonder if botnet operators branched out into selling views

Thank you for sharing this. I think this is better than the original. Plus, the chick on the left is smoking hot... Reminds me a bit of Salma Hayek.

T-Rain is storming dem charts, I predict 2016 he will be number 1 all over Psy.

Damn huge #of views.Its real so sure

Everybody in the industry and most kids today KNOW that you can buy youtube views.

Just ask that asshole from Korea that purchased a majority of his views for publicity.

You can't tell me that one shitty song, "All About That Bass" Meghan Trainor -- got over a billions views??? A billion???
:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Youtube is always busting artists and their agents for view stuffing their online videos.

The vendors supplying the views are getting more sophisticated and harder to catch.

It's just a huge PR joke. Anybody with cash can make a shitty video and spend mega bucks to view vendors and pump their video into the billions of hits until the media picks up on it and declares the song an online viral hit. It's all BULLSHIT.

Like billions of people on this planet are watching Taylor Swift videos?? BILLIONS??? People forget how many a billion actually is. It's not fundamentally reasonable that 5-10% of the entire planet has watched a Taylor Swift video. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

And that Psy guy, 2.5 billion??? How many people on the entire planet, about 7.5 billion, So even if people watched it twice, 1.25 billion people, that's about 16% of the ENTIRE FUCKING PLANET?? Please. What a total crock of shit.

Rhianna and Timberlake were already busted a few years back. Google it.
