PAUL WALKER TRIBUTE ‘SEE YOU AGAIN’ MOST WATCHED YOUTUBE VIDEO IN HISTORY—BUT ‘DESPACITO’ COULD SOON OVERTAKE IT
For five years, the irritatingly catchy K-pop single “Gangnam Style” stood as the unquestioned holder of the feted title of most watched YouTube video of all time. The 2012 anthem by South Korean singer Psy has been viewed almost three billion times times (2,896,175,327) as of July 12.
But it has now been overtaken by “See You Again,” a ballad by rapper Wiz Khalifa and singer Charlie Puth that featured on the soundtrack of Furious 7 —the 2015 installment in The Fast and the Furious franchise —that served as a tribute to Paul Walker, a lead actor in the films who died in a car crash in 2013.
