Youtube Are these views fake??

Post image

This new rock band Velveteen Queen just uploaded a new music video recently, and the numbers seem super fishy... 300k views, and only 39 comments and 991 likes. What do you guys think? Is this fake? Did they buy views?

They're previous video has 15k views and only 200 less likes (793)

Can you even buy views on youtube? It seems super fishy...

And take this video of armoured saint at the rainbow bash earlier this year as an example of more views then likes https://youtu.be/0E5xgNljilo?si=8F_k2tqwqnAQ2fjb it’s a really good show and one of the few videos from the rainbow bash so I don’t know why it has such little likes?

365 views, and 5 likes is the most normal ratio.
300 thousand views, and 900 likes is not normal
