YouTube's most watched videos of 2009!
No 1: Most watched music videos on YouTube

'I Know You Want Me' by Pitbull - 82+ million views

The party anthem with its strong beat and catchy lines became compulsive viewing, placing it at the top of the leaderboard for the most watched music videos of 2009.

As well as the most watched lists, the website also noted key search terms. In January, we were mainly looking for videos on YouTube relating to President Barack Obama's welcome to the White House as the term 'inauguration' became the fastest rising search of that month.

Similarly, the passing of Michael Jackson drew many of us to search for his famous 'Thriller' song in June. While in December, the developing scandal of champion golfer Tiger Woods was of most interest to us.

Watch Pitbull's video here, we challenge you not to shimmy and shake!:
