Back flipping ass mofo talking about cultural relevance mfer Billie Jean a way bigger song than I gotta feeling u just don’t want to swallow ur words and admit that BILLBOARD AINT THE END ALL BE ALL
i think u 2 r just using 2 different definitions of "bigger song"
It been lost its significance a long time ago
I literally responded right below I just cbf having this conversation w you
I gotta feeling could be objectively bigger than Billie jean
You gotta take into account differences in consumption though - I gotta feeling could be purchased as an individual track upon release Billie jean not so easily
Considering thriller is the best selling album ever it’s hard to really say that I gotta feeling is definitively bigger
But regardless Billie jean is clearly the more culturally relevant song regardless of if it was the BIGGER song
I’ve got the best one yet is life is good bigger than Billie Jean? According to your logic it is

Man no matter what using his logic life is good by future and drake is bigger than Billie Jean by Michael Jackson

das what i'm sayin w/ the diff definitions. your def of bigger song incorporates a lot of cultural relevance that's hard to determine but likely as you say it to be, his involves less cultural relevance but more reliably determined data

Niggas gonna say Old Town Road's a bigger song than Hey Ya by Outkast next. Lol

People talking about the billboard data being "objective" but a decision to place so much emphasis on it is still a subjective choice. This is a complicated question. As is life

You’re being deliberately obtuse and not getting the larger point of what people are saying here
I thought we were talking about what constitutes a bigger song. Even the definition of "bigger" requires some interpretation

How ironic it’s literally the opposite way around this is a forum where we discuss topics relating to music you’re gonna be mad at me for doing just that i’m elaborating on the exact reason that I made this thread
I actually think it is bigger than Billie Jean from what i see. Is it a better song? of course not.
but i also didnt live thru when the song got popular. I didn’t live through the heights of MJ. and obviously MJ is bigger than BEP
So keep that logic. Life is good is bigger than Billie Jean

OP just making s*** up so he can argue with himself like wtf lol
mby. habits are more intertwined with suggestions these days via playlists and "up next" kinda things
versus a past where a monolithic mainstream culture dictated people’s habits and interests

ya fair enuf there's always been suggestion involved
Ignition remix literally didn’t even go #1 lmfao
still classic
Even more of a classic by rkelly
"I believe I can fly"
I don't even know where that charted but I've seen/heard numerous renditions of it
It's a staple for ballad singers too
record breaking only has lost significance if you’re stuck in the past and can’t let go of old records and embrace the new landscape of music.
Ignition Remix, Crazy(Gnarls Barkley), Hotline Bling, Nuthing But A G Thang, Gangnam Style, and Bad Romance are all much bigger hits than a lot of number 1s today despite being number 2.
They were totally inescapable. Things are just way different today, although Blinding Lights is still a genuinely huge song.
Yall arguing about different things and semantics in this thread lol. Records are easier to break but they are easier to lose now. It's a double edge sword. You got to measure by longetivity now instead of the award itself. Kinda like the wwe championship.
Anyone can cop it, but not everyone can hold it
