some results seemed surprising, while others not so much (two commercials put up by Budweiser give Landslide ~15,000,000 hits, for example). this is the order:
  1. GYOW - 28,688,193
  2. Landslide – 26,739,270
  3. Dreams - 23,466,090
  4. Black Magic Woman – 12,860,278
  5. Little Lies – 9,358,701
  6. The Chain – 9,273,761
  7. Sara – 6,750,668
  8. Gypsy – 6,089,784
  9. Don't Stop - 5,229,043
  10. Everywhere – 4,8857,384
  11. Rhiannon – 4,121,840
  12. Oh Well - 2,475,971
  13. Songbird - 1,864,402
  14. Trouble - 1,626,144
  15. Seven Wonders - 1,465,473
  16. Angel - 1,394,488
  17. Tusk - 1,272,029
  18. You Make Loving Fun - 1,177,526
  19. Like it This Way - 1,170,597


honorable mentions with 900,000 views plus:
  • Need Your Love So Bad - 985,262 views
  • Gold Dust Woman - 948,988 views
  • Albatross - 936,198 views
  • Silver Springs - 933,430 views

also interesting that LB's solo Trouble comes up in FM search, while his solo Big Love which also has over 1,000,000 doesn't since this depends on whether FM is mentioned somewhere in the text.
wow thanks for doing that

Can you do that for Stevie's solo songs?
