Less than 11 months after "See You Again" was uploaded, it surpassed Taylor Swift's "Blank Space" to become YouTube's second most viewed video, and on July 10, 2017, it surpassed the music video for "Gangnam Style" by Psy to become the most viewed YouTube video of all time, with 2.894 billion views. However, its reign was short-lived as "Despacito" by Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee took its place with 2.994 billion views on August 4, 2017, only 25 days after it claimed the top spot from "Gangnam Style".[1][2]
