Jonas Brothers Mania Has Hit the UK, help me!

OMG!#!#! I was hoping Britain could avoid these clean cut young men, but no it seems girls across the country are out in droves screaming out for some Jonas Brothers loving. 

I can be rude, but they did take the high spots of number 2 and 7 on the most viewed YouTube vidoes of 2008 with Burnin’ Up and When You Look Me In The Eyes respecvtively, so they must be doing something right. 

jonasHowever, I refuse to watch the videos because the music would be Burnin’ my precious ears and I am sure it is more about catching a glimpes of the brothers and the artistic merit that they hit the top spots.

If you want to watch them then follow the links:

Enjoy :p

Oh did I forget to say why they are in the UK this month? Well they are promoting their new movie release Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience. Right. Well if it does as well as the hit teen movie Camp Rock then I am sure they will be a happy boy band.

Britain’s Got Talent: Susan Boyle (Gone Viral)

boyleOkay so it isn’t stricly a music video but then it is music and it is a video on YouTube :p So why is it here? Because it exceeded 100 million views and went viral within days of it being aired on television. For those who missed it, it was at the end of the first episode on Saturday 11 April in the UK. She is does not need to dream the dream! Live it Susan :) A truely inspiring and humbling performance sure to make Amanda cry. Not enough to make Simon Cowell stand and clap though but a lesson on not to pre-judge anyone by their appearance.

YouTube is being annoying about embedded to watch with link below:

Can’t wait to see her in the next stages.

Soulja Boy Cranks up the viral load and gives swine flu a run for its money

Apparently the new definition for a video going viral is that it has had over 100 million views - ouch! As of 1 May 2009 Soulja Boy’s Crank That music video is the most viewed video online coming in with over 356 million people ‘reached’ according to visibilemeasures.com. That is a lot of hits, I wish my site had that many, then again maybe not, the bandwidth costs would be huge.


P.S. I have no f*ng idea what this rapper is saying :)

Top video of 2008 was, oh no, it’s her again, help!

7thingsAccording to comedy.com, by December in 2008 Miley Cyrus was leading the field by a long way with 50 million views on YouTube of her video for 7 Things. I personally found the song annoying and it gave me a headache, but obviously someone liked this Hannah Montana star screaming down the mic at them about things she hates about someone else.

Well if you are one of ‘them’ you can stil catch the video at the great video archive in the sky.
