I'm about to set an auto-refresh timer on the official audio YouTube video for WTTS. The song is 3min 21s (201 seconds) long, how long a duration do you think I should set before the video refreshes?

Just as I was falling asleep last night the thought crossed my mind... maybe WB has shopped WTTS to the NCAA to play diring the stupid basketball tournament once it gets to the top 16 or whatever. That would be too funny. Then my DH, who left the room as soon as Adam came onstage on Idol, would have to listen to it over and over!

lorraine said "Kind of tired out here on the west coast-emotionally exhausted following all the anticipation, and finally the awesome delivery of Adam's new "baby." He and Laleh sounded beautiful together----brought Idol up to a new level once again. As he stood there singing the opening lines with his incredible voice , my husband, who can't seem to turn away or actually make that full choice to sit down right beside me whenever Adam is on the TV, stood in the background, once again,---he, "the non-committal,constant observer." As transfixed as I was by the amazing performance, I was just as taken in by Adam's all-out exuberance and JOY when the song ended. I fully realize that it's this very exhilaration that is Adam's gift to me---and dare I say, to so many all around the world. I see it with people he interacts with everywhere he goes, and I certainly see it with Brian and Roger who had a twinkle in their eyes and a curious smile, from the moment they laid eyes on him. So up there on the stage tonight, I saw a 34 year-old man who could hardly contain himself after he finished his new, surprise song----so he jumped up and down, not once, but twice---{reminded me of my little 8 year-old grandson when he is so excited that he jumps up and down because ,as he explains to me,"I feel like I'm going to burst, Grammie!"} Since season 8 on Idol, Adam has been giving this gift to me so that,even in the dark moments of life, I can put on his music, hear his "melting gold," voice, {Melinda Doolittle's apt description} and somehow the world seems beautiful and right again." Thank you dearest,Adam. You are my ODE to JOY.......

Put it on the full song. YT changed something, plus the average view time is looked at a lot too! Need to view the full one for that. Might be easier to use a playlist then though.

Just checked the iTunes update and WTTS ticked up to 30. Maybe it is just a little fluctuation but it would be super cool if it indicates it could start climbing again. At the very least, it is certainly not dropping like a rock and that's kind of amazing considering the initial fan buying burst might be over. Well it dropped to 34 now, but let's hope it's not a drop-like-a-rock drop! Let's hope it's a ball-bouncing-on-the-ground drop, and it will rise again soon!!

Shall I just put one song into a playlist and repeat that playlist endlessly?

It seems wbr put a lot of money in streaming for this song. WTTS is on a lot of lists in Spotify! That's good and explains the high view count somewhat as well. It's all about making the right lists when you want to get high up the Spotify charts and it seems that is working! As the Spotify chart also defines a lot of music charts nowadays that is very important! Gelly @14gelly On Topsify's Tomorrow's Hits ????

I have Adam's own playlist on repeat at the moment: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuuNtD-xmhd3rF9Mgsul7Rf_1zmGxABUzIt also contains the Idol video. Q3 mentioned earlier that that one doesn't count for his chart position. It does show some interest though. If you don't want to stream the Idol video you can also play my playlist: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3e9hVxSWGTMOo7_78w5EcayVQUmxlmvH
