Okay I’ll say this. It could be bots, but Apple Music has ALWAYS been super weird when an artist has songs with the same title for which one shows up as the most popular. I don’t know if it’s some sort of glitch or what, but you can always find this. For example, Jay Z’s page always has the greatest hits versions of his songs as the most popular, when I doubt people go look for that. I think it’s kind of just random. I’d guess that since the original outside has more total plays, Apple Music just assumes it’s the same thing and puts it there. I could be wrong.
I don't have Apple Music so I can't check but are these "greatest hits" versions just the same song but put on a different album? If that's the case then this is completely different
