Trumpeting Rosé & Bruno Mars’ “APT.” as a YouTube phenomenon would be an understatement. The smash hit not only earns a tenth week at #1 on the platform’s Global Music Videos Chart but does so with its best viewership number since October.
“APT.” generated 67.1 million views during the December 20-26 tracking period, more than doubling the figure achieved by the week’s #2 video.
The total, moreover, ranks as the video’s best since the October 25-31 tracking period — which was just the song’s second week of release. Posting such growth, especially amid the surge of seasonal interest in holiday music videos, is irrefutably phenomenal.
With views from other eligible uploads included, “APT.” amassed 124.7 million total YouTube plays during the tracking period. The count yields a tenth week at #1 on the Global YouTube Songs chart, while ranking as the song’s best overall YouTube number since November 22-28.
