No idea who or what Despacito is. 

Seen the Gangnum style video once or twice.  This coming from someone who almost never watches music videos.

Despacito is a song with over 3 billion views on YouTube.  :lol:

There are a lot of things on Youtube with many views that I haven't seen, and Despacito is one of them.

Actually over 6 billion (I've just watched it).

I fail to see why, though. It seems like very generic dance pop. Gangnam Style at least had a weird video going for it.

Oy. I guess some people never stopped listening to it.

Heard Despacito on the radio but never had a reason to watch the video.

Likely saw Gangnam once or twice during the rage...never heard of Despicito until poll.

Voted Jaron to represent the video/song that has been stuck in my head for a couple weeks now): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYnVYJDxu2Q

Yeah, I've heard Despacito, but not sure the video is central to experiencing the song.

Whereas for Gangnam Style it became famous because of the video itself.

Consider yourself lucky. It's a particularly obnoxious piece of Reggaeton.

Seen glimpses of Gagnam, that was enough.

Saw Gangnam once, never heard of that other thing.

Heard Despacito to the point of sickness, but didn't actually watch the video much.
