Also the Evolution of Dance video has been out far longer than Avril’s video and it has caught up in record time, proving the immense popularity of the song worldwide.

Avril’s song Girlfriend was the most legally bought and downloaded song of 2007.

Furthermore, Avril was the best selling female artist in the world in 2007 according to http://www.worldwidealbums.net/2007.htm

And Avril Lavigne now has the most NO. 1 Top 40 Hits This Decade. Avril Lavigne has ascended to a lofty pedestal: The 22-year-old now has the most No. 1 top 40 hits this decade at “five” and is the No. 2 artist in the 14-year history of Nielsen BDS, behind Mariah Carey’s six chart-toppers. —Chuck Taylor (Billboard.com)Source: http://www.billboard.com/bbcom/content_display/reviews/singles/e3i6337374c02990aa382432d13494ab554

Suspicious activity is shown in the video I provided for the Fan Cheat HOAX article. And these two videos have again raised question. It appears that those who had hopes of these videos reaching 100 million 1st by any means made a last ditch effort which resulted in an epic fail:

Either they threw in the towel or youtube might have implimented further restrictions. The point of this is to show, suspicious changes like that are clear evidence that views are being automated or fabricated by some means. The only way I can think of for this type of change to occur is to massively distribute the video by embedding it on other webpages, in effect giving it publicity which would raise interest, and that could account for for the increase, but the sudden decrease? Only if the embedded videos played automatically and then every page was mysteriously removed from the internet.

Anyway, as the Girlfriend video has embedding disallowed, it stands to reason it’s that much more difficult to use some automating system. However, 7 of the 8 all time most viewed videos at youtube are music videos. It seems only natural that the artist who’s been most successful in sales, has a huge world tour and a ton of publicity would probably score more hits than her competitors.
