"I Love You 3000" on YouTube |
"I Love You 3000" is a single by Indonesian-American singer-songwriter Stephanie Poetri. It was released on June 3, 2019, through 88rising and 12Tone Music.
Inspiration for the song came after Poetri held an Instagram Q&A with her followers. Poetri asked her followers to send her a phrase she could turn into a song, and many responded with the phrase "I Love You 3000". This was mainly due to the release of superhero film Avengers: Endgame a week earlier, which featured the viral line. [1] Poetri later came up with a chorus and released a sample on her Instagram story. The sample was met with much fanfare from her followers, leading her to create a full single. [2]
"I Love You 3000" became a viral hit worldwide and has been credited as Poetri's breakthrough track. [3] Since its release, the track had been streamed over 425 million times across various streaming platforms. [4] It also topped Spotify's Global Viral 50 chart for over 4 weeks, peaking at the #1 spot. [5] The track also led Poetri to her first major award at the 2019 Mnet Asian Music Awards, winning "Best New Asian Artist - Indonesia." [6]
Poetri also released a music video for the song on YouTube. It was shot using her phone camera with the help of her sister in Los Angeles. [7] The video has amassed over 90 million views since its release.
A remix of the song, titled "I Love You 3000 II," featured Got7 member Jackson Wang. It was released on 88rising's compilation album, Head in the Clouds II , on October 11, 2019. [8] The song peaked at number one on the Billboard China Social Charts. [9]
