There are several criteria that must be met for me to rate a music video as “outstanding” on YouTube. And while this set of criteria is by no means finite, it does a decent job of separating YouTube’s wheat from YouTube’s chaff.
Interesting visuals? Check.
Catchy pop sound? ? Check.
Asks a question? Check.
Foreigners singing in English? Check.
Comically racist?
Unnecessary subtitles? Check.
Freshly viral? Check.
Funny as hell? Check.
7/8 ain’t bad.
