See You Again Hits TWO Billion Views

Hey Everyone!

Just a quick update on a couple of my previous posts. Back in January, I did an update on the song "See You Again" by Wiz Khalifa featuring Charlie Puth going by the numbers to see how long it would take for it to reach two billion views: See You Again song Update.

My numbers were off slightly as there were days where the video didn't get three million views a day BUT on September 3rd of 2016, See You Again has reached two billion views. According to the wikipedia  page, it was the fastest to reach the milestone (516 days).

Now there are two videos with two billion views (Gangnam Style being the first one) and there are a few behind that look to be close to the number as well.

So like I said this is just a quick update on "See You Again" and if you read my update post ^^^ then you will know why I wrote about this song and why it was important for me to talk about it reaching the two billion mark. Next up: Getting more than Gangnam Style! It is possible.

That's it for now but I feel another post building up inside of me so stay tuned for that one.

Until Next Time

See You Again song Update

Hey Everyone!

I have previously written a post about the song, "See You Again" by Wiz Khalifa featuring Charlie Puth and I thought maybe I would update it.

Click here for the previous post (highly recommended) where I wrote about the meaning behind the song, where it stands on the Billboard's Hot 100 and most watched YouTube video lists, and what it would take to take it to the top.

So as I'm sure all of you know "See You Again" was the biggest song of 2015 summer and it basically launched Charlie Puth's now amazing career. Album out now!

Well, I thought I would update the numbers (from the last post to now) to see what it would take to get the video and song to the #1 spot on the most watched YouTube video's list.

At the moment of me writing this post, the music video has about 1.40 billion views and still stands #3 on the list behind Taylor Swift's "Blank of Space" and Psy's "Gangnam Style" but is getting closer and closer in the numbers.

Here's how the list looks with the current numbers that I see:
#1: Gangnam Style by Psy - 2,508,133,944
#2: Blank Space by Taylor Swift - 1,433,539,152
#3: See You Again by Wiz Khalifa featuring Charlie Puth - 1,403,658,279

Now, you will see that "See You Again" is 30 million behind #2 which is less than what it was when I first wrote about the song a few weeks ago. The video also received about 100 million since my last post which was less than a month ago.

If the video continues getting 3 million views a day, at the moment it will reach 2 billion views in about 202 days. It'll take about 3.09 million views a day for it to take over the #1 spot in about 357 days.

Again, you're probably wondering: Why does CGoerlich (wiki-wheelz) care so much?? I care because as you remember from reading my other post because the song has meaning. Meaning for everyone who has ever lost a loved one.

Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with the #1 & #2 songs. Believe me. I'm a HUGE Taylor Swift fan but I feel that "See You Again" deserves to be at the top especially since they lost out the Golden Globe and weren't nominated for an Oscar.

So, if you want to help "See You Again" reach #1 on the most watched YouTube video's list, then go watch the video here. Watch it multiple times a day. Share it. Get your friends to start watching it again. A song with this type of meaning behind it deserves all the recognition it should have.

By the way, it's still top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 list which I have to say is very good for a soundtrack song. Keep it up, fans!

Until Next Time
