The song was a success from the beginning, being # 2 in the United States and # 11 in the UK, being the seventh best-selling single in the United States in 2009. In its first week it sold 226,000 units digitally and spent 16 weeks on the album. top 10, 28 weeks total on the list.
In 2012 it crossed the 5 million barrier, only in digital sales and in 2017 the 6 million, not counting streaming.
The video that pays tribute to Grease, the identification of the new generations with the song, have made it stay alive and accompany practically every important event in the last 10 years in the United States, the most recent, the celebration in the streets of New York, of the democratic triumph and of Joe Biden, in the last presidential elections in the United States.
