	In fact, the video languished for quite awhile. I thought it was great and was sad it wasn't getting the exposure it deserved. After a couple of months it barely got above 10,000 views or something like that, certainly not qualifying it as an "instant hit" ([[Terryfic]]'s YouTube Auteur did far better in a far shorter amount of time, mainly because LG15 was at its peak when his was released). Anyway though, it was not until Dee's video was FEATURED by YouTube did it skyrocket to 850k views, something which is not rare for a featured video to do, in fact it could almost be expected in many cases. Therefore, I think the part about it being an instant hit should be removed because while the fans loved the song, it is utterly misleading to make it seem like it came out and got hundreds of thousands of hits when it got no more than 10k on its own and the many hundreds coming months later when it was featured.
