Wasn't "Since U Been Gone" blocked by "Candy Shop"? At least people remember CS I think, which is not something I expect the BTS track to achieve.

The first song that came to my mind when I think about good 4 u's run is actually Poker Face (although obviously they are different sonically). It sneaked in a week at #1 just before the BEP domination and spent 8 weeks at #2 after that.

I probably should have clarified that I, in no way, think that Butter technically having higher chart points these past few weeks is comparable to BEP's domination during that time.

BEP also dominated the sales market... but that was back when that actually meant something.

I want to listen to all the songs some more but I always get stuck on "jealousy, jealousy", that whole song is magical, I love its structure and the melodies and lyrics are great, that chorus is addicting and the bridge has attitude, it should definitely be a single at some point, sorry for my outrage but isn't it obvious this is a future pop classic a la "Into You" or "Run Away With Me" I still stand by this, I'm still very much obsessed with "jealousy, jealousy" after weeks, a feat songs rarely achieve for me and I think I can say this is my favorite song of the year (so far) I can't wait for it to become a single and read all the discussion because oh man this needs to happen

I have to say, Olivia has really been battling with some huge names in her first era alone. I mean, "drivers license" blocked Ariana and Cardi (initially) from #1, "good 4 u" has been holding its own against BTS and her album almost blocked Taylor from returning to the throne.

She’s doing this with a pretty mellow, downtempo album (with exception to the singles). If Sweet is really a thing, and is filled with uptempo radio hits, she can cement herself as the Pop Princess of the 2020s.

With these POTUS and Fauci appearances, I’m really amazed at how well-spoken, charismatic yet approachable and relatable she comes across. How can you NOT fall in love with her personality? Definitely the first Gen-Z musical superstar.

What she is achieving is global success which is extra rare to see in a debut era. Also very happy to see her use her platform to support vaccination efforts.
