YouTube's Most Viral Videos Of 2015 Are All About Music
Recently, YouTube released their list of the ten most viral videos of 2015, and most of them have something in common: music.
It should come as no surprise that of the ten videos on the list, six are rooted in music. While they may have other things going on, videos are just better with music, and everybody has caught on to this, from those at late night TV shows to advertising agencies looking to create something that will go viral. YouTube has become a place to experience just how powerful music is through other mediums, as well as to listen to music.
The number one clip features the adorable Heaven King, who is just a toddler, and yet can dance better than most people (certainly this writer). The video is based around rapper Silentó’s single “Watch Me”, which was one of the breakout hits of the year, eventually peaking at number three on the Hot 100. In a release announcing the trending clips of the year, the Google-owned video giant pointed out that this is the first year that a dance video ended up on top.
Other videos that used music as their basis or as a backdrop include the Ad Council’s “Love Has No Labels”, which features Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ “Same Love” to get the point across that love knows no gender, age, race, or disability. Two late night shows used music to get stars to act a bit goofy, a police officer was caught on camera jamming out to Taylor Swift (haven’t we all), and a man auditioning for Britain’s Got Talent knocked it out of the park on his first try.
These may not be the type of videos one thinks of that would need music, but it is clear that the tunes make them what they are, and the hits featured surely made these viral sensations as popular as they became.
YouTube was able to calculate which videos “trended” the most throughout the year with an algorithm that involved the number of views, shares, comments, likes, and then some. These ten viral moments were reportedly watched for over 25 million hours, and the channels that uploaded them now have over 40 million subscribers.
Here are the top ten trending videos on YouTube in 2015:
