Longevity vs higher uls, which one is more important?

Longevity shows popularity of a song, higher ULs shows popularity of the group.

I'd rather have higher peaks than longevity. Since that's reflective of my personal or group popularity, versus how good the song is.

longevity high uls can be a result of having a big fanbase although both are important

Longevity, but depends

Longevity on top 80 is not as good a instant hit that drops like a rock

Longevity

If you have multiple songs with great longevity, that shows long-term gp interest.

Oh, it’s that time of the month again for this question.

I do think longevity is more important. High peaks would make the song and the artist on the radar but longevity shows how much the song is well-loved.

Longevity...

This is true. Longevity really matters at the top, that's why i think the Melon Top 10 Weekly chart is the most important chart for Korean acts. Nobody cares if your song managed to rank 67th for 7 years or whatever, that is most likely fandom driven. It's much better to stay on trend in the top 10 for 30ish weeks, like Dyna or Dorito or NL or Love Dive, than to rank 71st for 10 years.

Longevity.

Go for both

massive hits have both

High points in digital index. It shows how big hit one song was.

Both are important. But I think it’s a bell curve and there is a sweet spot for the optimal ratio of listeners and longevity. Getting a million listeners but dropping off in a few weeks is not impressive nor is charting outside the top 40 for years. Middle ground between those is probably important.

As usual, depends on what for I would think.

Longevity speaks to fandom power IMO, while ULs is popularity.

I agree

Higher ULs

Longevity in the lower ranks is hardly remembered

Ask Spring Day, she has both.
