“The difference between comfort and nurture is this: if you have a plant that is sick because you keep it in a dark closet, and you say soothing words to it, that is comfort.If you take out of the closet and put in the sun, give it something to drink, and then talk to it, that is nurture”

I’m proud of all of us. This was a TEAM EFFORT, and we DID IT. Everybody hit the showers.
I looked this up and it is TRUE, Bye Bye Bye has reached number 86 on the charts as of the evening of November 7th. Other top 200 hits include Talkin’ About a Revolution by Tracy Chapman, Georgia On My Mind by Ray Charles, and Fuck You Goodbye by The Kid Laroi.
Reblogging this again to add that in addition to “Bye Bye Bye”, the following are also in the iTunes top 100 right now:
“Party in the USA” by Miley Cyrus
“Celebration” by Kool & the Gang
“Fuck Donald Trump” by dropz
“Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye” by Steam
“We Are the Champions” by Queen
“Dancing in the Street” by Martha Reeves and the Vandellas
“Y.M.C.A.” by the Village People (which is especially petty and hilarious because Trump used “Y.M.C.A.” as his campaign theme song)
“Philadelphia Freedom” by Elton John
“Hit the Road Jack” by Ray Charles
Absolutely outstanding work by the American people tonight.
