MVM: The World’s 2012 Top Songs

 

Since I wasn’t able to get a post up yesterday (not to mention for the past, I don’t know how long – finals, then vacation) I’m doing Music video Monday and Feature Tuesday!

Google has this nifty little page up for New Years resolutions. On that page you can see the world’s top searches.

This Music Video Monday, we’re going to celebrate a little bit of world wide unity, and take a look at the top searched songs and musicians of the world. (It was really hard to just find YouTube videos of some of these artists, let alone proper music videos, so please excuse some of these videos)
