It may not have arrived until the sixth day of the October 18-24 tracking period, but Selena Gomez’s “Lose You To Love Me” video racked up a considerable amount of views on YouTube.

The buzzy video earned 7.8 million views in the US, yielding a #1 debut on the US YouTube Music Videos Chart.

It meanwhile debuts as a very close #2 on the Global chart thanks to its 41.4 million worldwide streams. Black Eyed Peas & J Balvin’s “RITMO,” which takes #1, rounds to the same 41.4 million tracking period streams.

— The “Lose You To Love Me” views should have powered Selena Gomez into the upper reaches of the Global YouTube Artists Chart, but there seems to have been a glitch in the calculation. As of press time, YouTube is not counting any of the views toward her weekly total.
