As the world continues to mourn the death of David Bowie, the legendary musician is still making an impact on the music industry. With his new album, Blackstar, heading for No. 1 on the charts, he also broke a major Vevo earlier this week, according to Billboard. Bowie is now the new record-holder for most views in one day with 51 million, good enough to pass Adele's previous mark of 36 million that she set back in October. Bowie's entire catalog helped him break the record, and his new video for "Lazarus" was the most-watched visual for the day with 11.1 million views. If Bowie's Blackstar does indeed reach the top of the charts, it will be the late-singer's first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart.
