Five years ago this week, South Korean music artist Psy put his official “Gangnam Style” music video on Youtube. It went on to become the most-played YouTube video of all time. The quirky music video got more views than YouTube’s maximum possible view count; the company had to change its coding method. As of Thursday, more than 2.89 billion people had watched it. But, just days before “Gangnam Style’s” five-year YouTube anniversary, another music video finally passed its view count. Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth’s video for “See You Again” has now been viewed more than 2.9 billion times. The song “See You Again” was written for the movie “Furious 7.”
