This list consists of the 30 most viewed YouTube videos of all time as derived from YouTube charts.[1] Videos that YouTube suspects have had their view counts manipulated[2] are not included in this list. View counts are based on the YouTube website; many of the videos are music videos that play through YouTube's partner site, Vevo, and YouTube view counts will lag those of Vevo by a few days.[1] All but three of the videos in this list are music videos.
These videos include the "Billion View Club", a group of videos whose view counts have exceeded one billion total views each. Prior to June 2015, only two videos: "Gangnam Style" and "Baby", had achieved this milestone, but by October 2015, ten videos had done so.[3] As of February 2016[update], 20 videos have accumulated over one billion views each, all but two of which are music videos, with "Gangnam Style" being the only video to have accumulated over two billion views.[4] As of February 2016[update], the four fastest videos to enter in to the Billion View Club are "Hello" (at 88 days after its posting to YouTube), "Gangnam Style" (160 days), "See You Again" (184 days), and "Blank Space" (240 days).[3][5][6]
