YouTube is a sensation; there is no doubt about that. And when it's not animal videos, internet sensations are often music videos: from a seventeen-year-old boy who in the blink of an eye has become a superstar, to a returning artist who has revolutionized the sound of the “lambada“. Please watch all the five videos and let us know which one is your favorite and share your comments! Also, we have to point out that even before this article is published the numbers we recorded for all the videos will have climbed in millions because these music videos are so popular that they will keep achieving new heights in number of views on Youtube!
Here is a list of the top five music videos from the popular website.
1. On the first spot with 619,650,373 views, we have the young heartbreaker Justin Bieber with his first popular song: Baby, featuring the rapper Ludacris. Having come a lot way since he was a young boy banging on cups and pans in his home, Justin Bieber is now the crush of millions of young teenage girls around the globe. With his loving eyes, and cute haircut, Bieber appeals to teens, who since this single, have followed him everywhere. Not only is the song fun with a good rhythm, we are also surprised by the star appearance of Ludacris.

2. The new Queen of Pop follows Bieber with 412,658,865 views. Lady Gaga with one of her most popular songs Bad Romance takes the second spot on this list. Many say that it is not the song that appeals to the audience, rather the performance which Gaga presents to the world. The set design, choreography (and most importantly, the costumes – designed by the late designer Alexander McQueen), feed the audience with a sense of glamour that isn’t real in the world.

3. Who can forget the iconic song of the last World Cup? With 392,869,614 views, Shakira brings us Waka Waka (This Time for Africa), featuring the most memorable moments of the tournament in Africa. Carrying belief, passion and fun, Shakira portrays a colorful representation of life. No matter where you’re from, you are part of the world and the dancing.

4. After disappearing for a while, Eminem comes back with Love the Way You Lie featuring the red-haired Rihanna. At 379,584,757 views, the song talks about the pain of love and the dangers that it brings. The audience is burned by the fire, and feels the pain of the lovers (portrayed by Megan Fox and Dominic Monaghan). Overall, fans believe it is the perfect comeback for the rapper, placing him in the music world once again.

5. Jennifer Lopez also comes back to us in spot number five with On The Floor, featuring Pitbull. This music video earns this spot with 374,125,481 views. The appeal? Many say that it is the rhythm (approved by many reggaeton lovers). People call it a homage for the famous “Lambada“, a type of Latin dance. Another attraction of the video is the dance choreography, praised by many of her fans.
