Can you imagine how many subscribers he would have if they posted new unreleased videos every now and then to actually give people a reason to subscribe!

Yay for Heaven Can Wait. While I’m not its biggest fan I always enjoy alternative songs becoming more popular.

Truthfully it's more than that, we're just talking off the official YouTube page. And single videos.

Which other MJ video has more than 1bn Views?

Thank you zinnia for the updates!

I have to laugh at myself. Sometimes I'm all, 'oh, streaming figures ... blah blah blah ... I'm not really interested ... blah blah ...' and then something like this happens and I go completely mental.

I'm still hyped about it, lol. I love the fact that it's getting congrats from so many online accounts - pop magazines, radio shows, tv stuff. Love it!

There used to be more, they've been copyright struck. Though maybe I'm making that up.

But if you count unofficial uploads or alt versions then at least Bad and Smooth Criminal each are much higher up.

Smooth Criminal is expected to be the next one.

But what after Smooth Criminal?

And question: did the thriller streams rise after the upgrade in quality?

Billie Jean will hit 2 billion and Remember the time 1 billion

Billie Jean will hit 2 billion and Remember the time 1 billion

maybe after that maybe TDCAU will hit 1.5 billion!

 

[Mister_Jay_Tee]

Billie Jean will hit 2 billion and Remember the time 1 billion

It'll be a long time for either of those though. Expect another couple of years at the earliest really.

After Smooth Criminal, the highest viewed Michael video is Remember The Time with 570 million views. I suspect that after Smooth Criminal hits 1 billion views, it will be a few years before another Michael video joins the billion club.

In the meantime, I'm stoked that 3 of Michael's 'billion views' videos are from the same album. Sure, it's Thriller but that still seems really cool to me.

And Thriller only had three music videos.
