List of most liked YouTube videos
This list of most liked YouTube videos contains the top 40 videos with the most likes of all time, as derived from YouTube charts. 1 The like count is taken directly from the page of the video itself. YouTube implemented a like and dislike button on these pages in March 2010, part of a major redesign of the site. This served as a replacement for their five-star rating system; Because the options to rate a video between two and four stars were rarely selected, YouTube's designers found the previous system ineffective. Of the 40 videos in this list, 29 also appear in the list of most viewed YouTube videos and 15 appear in the list of most disliked YouTube videos. All videos in this list are music videos. The music video for LMFAO's song "Party Rock Anthem" stood as the most liked video on YouTube in 2012, with 1.56 million likes, until the video for Psy's "Gangnam Style" surpassed it in September that year, yielding more than 1.57 million likes.
