YouTube has come such a long way since it was launched. For
the longest time, it was famous for being everyone’s favourite video platform.
In its present stage, it hosts so much more than just videos. It has become the
most common way to enjoy music legitimately and is also working on feature
series just for its YouTube Originals platform, to name a few.
Along with being the world largest video sharing platform
comes different kinds of interesting statistics. Which video is the most
trending? Which one has the most likes? Which one has the most dislikes? From
all of these questions, the most prominent one asks for the video with the most
views. This coveted title was held by the 2017 Spanish musical hit ‘Despacito’
by Luis Fonsi & Daddy Yankee until recently.
This record was snatched from ‘Despacito’ by popular
children rhyme-song video ‘Baby Shark Dance’ uploaded by the channel ‘Pinkfong!
Songs & Stories’. ‘Baby Shark Dance’ has seen enormous popularity since its
release and has become the source of various internet memes and parodies. With
the pandemic driving everybody to depend on online content for entertainment,
it only makes sense for home-bound children to flock to their favourite
rhyme-songs. Owning to its playful tune
and childish lyrics, ‘Baby Shark’ has captured the hearts of young children and
adults equally. It only seems that it will only grow more popular.
