YouTube reveals most watched videos of 2009 Susan Boyle heads list with adverts making up two of the top five.
For the first time since 2005 YouTube has revealed the rankings of its most watched videos of the year.
According to the Asociated Press, the video sharing site has disclosed the top five videos of 2009.
At the top of the chart was Susan Boyle's debut performance on Britain's Got Talent which attracted over 120 million views worldwide, more than three times as much as the next three videos combined.
Perhaps the biggest surprise though is that two of the videos on the list were adverts.
In fourth place was a trailer for film the Twilight Saga: New Moon, starring Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner, with 31 million views.
Evian made it into fifth with 27 million views of its ad featuring babies performing roller-skating stunts to a hip-hop beat.
The other two videos to make the list were David After Dentist, showing a young boy recovering from dental work, and JK Wedding Entrance Dance, an elaborate dance routine devised by a couple before their wedding.
It has also been revealed that YouTube is considering charging subscription fees for premium content such as TV programmes and films.
