Most Popular Music Videos

The two music videos that made the most impact this week, “Dark Horse” by Katy Perry and “Putin Will Teach You How To Love” by Pussy Riot, couldn’t be more different than one another. One is a fun, large budget pop video for the number one song in America, and the other is a guerrilla style, political punk video featuring the artists literally being assaulted by Russian police officers. We highly recommend watching both of those videos, but if you’re looking for something a little less extreme than those two, there were plenty of other popular videos released this week, including some great ones from Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, Mac Miller, The Knocks, and Issues – so maybe just watch those instead if violence or sparkles make you woozy. In addition to the ten videos on this list, we’ve got this sweet playlist of the week’s 25 most popular music videos, so if you’re really feeling awesome, you should check those out as well.
