Thanks for posting.

Black or White has a single version that also has over hundred streams, so I think that is the most streamed song from Dangerous.

Also, this list shows that just because a song wasn't successful at the time of its launch, it doesn't mean that it won't have success in the long run. They Don't Care About Us and Earth Song were hits in Europe, but flopped in the US (biggest music market), while YANA was a worldwide success, yet 25 years later, it has less streams than both TDCAU and ES.

That's the problem with these types of lists. They often don't account for radio edits or appearances on anniversary albums/greatest hits. They end up giving a false impression of the most popular tracks from the albums.
