Mods pull if you wish.
Quite the hit on MTV.
Thanks.
1.5 Billion views! Somebody likes it.😉
No problem, here you go...
“In a day or two”
A lyric I never heard correctly until five days ago when my wife said “you know he’s singing ‘in a day or two’ right”?
I didn’t. It was always just some garbled high note that I always failed to hit.
We didn’t have cable so no MTV. I would have to watch it at friend’s houses.
Great graphics and falsetto.
Here are the previous four videos (made in the 20th Century) to achieve that mark:
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
Guns 'N' Roses - November Rain
Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
Guns 'N' Roses - Sweet Child o' Mine
I did not know that either
There’s another Norwegian act that has a song with over a billion views.
There are numerous music videos with over one billion views but a 20th Century song hitting that mark is in exclusive company.
sometimes I come across covers on youtube that amaze me...this forklift driver in a place like indonesia..cant remember exactly where..sits by a hole in the wall and puts out amazing guitar covers
Sweet Child O mine

I shared an elevator ride with these guys at the Akasaka Prince in Tokyo when they were a big deal. Two of em looked like middle schoolers. The singer looked like he had terrible acne. Nothing like the cool dudes in this video.
PFL
I like the Reel Big Fish cover version
and if you are into heavy metal....which I am in no way a heavy metal fan...this cover of Buried Alive is very nice. Alip does soothing interpretations of songs that can put me to sleep...well not this one while the singer is screeching BURIED ALIVE
