YouTube Trends Analysis

Screen Junkies

Data recorded at time of publication

More than twenty years after its release, Troy resurfaces in the trending charts of 16 countries, and it owes it to a parody. The new Honest Trailers episode from Screen Junkies, 615,000 views on the counter, proves the resilience of a format many assumed…

Dagar

Data recorded at time of publication

Nearly a million views for a boys versus girls Minecraft challenge. You can smile at the concept, but Dagar perfectly illustrates the vitality of Spanish-speaking YouTube, one of the most underestimated audience pools on the entire platform. The Mexican…

Danger Dan

Data recorded at time of publication

A piano, finely chiseled lyrics, and nearly 700,000 views. Keine Angst by Danger Dan sits atop the German trends, and this success deserves a pause, because it tells of a peculiarity of the German-speaking market few foreign observers suspect. The artist…

Marvel Entertainment

Data recorded at time of publication

A trending chart shows fifty titles and one number each: a rank. Everything that would let you interpret that rank is missing — how fast the list moves, how long entries survive in it, whether they are shared with neighbouring countries, and whether the video…

EVRgreenhitsVEVO

Data recorded at time of publication

Each day we record, for every country, the entry that gained the most places since the previous snapshot. Over 25 days and 72 countries that gives 1,521 recorded jumps. Sorted by size and filtered to Latin America, the top of the list produces a result we did…

Mrs. GREEN APPLE

Data recorded at time of publication

The 19 August 2026 snapshot covers 72 national charts and 1,985 distinct videos. Of those, 1,537 appear in exactly one country — 77 per cent. Fewer than five videos in a hundred reach ten charts or more, and only four exceed 30 countries. That figure alone…

Fortnite

Data recorded at time of publication

Two numbers describe a video's international standing, and they almost never point the same way. The first is reach: how many national charts it appears in on the same day. The second is volume: how many times it has been watched. In the snapshot of 19 August…

Data recorded at time of publication

With 1,800 country-days recorded between 26 July and 19 August 2026, each carrying a turnover figure, it becomes possible to ask a question no single snapshot can answer: does the day of the week change how much a chart moves? It does, and consistently.…

Marvel Entertainment

Data recorded at time of publication

Every day, for each of the 72 countries we track, we record which video has been on that chart the longest. Across 25 days that produces 1,800 observations of what we call the incumbent: not the most watched entry, but the one that has resisted longest. One…

Al Shami - الشامي

Data recorded at time of publication

The longest continuous run we recorded anywhere between 26 July and 19 August 2026 does not belong to a Marvel trailer or a global pop release. It belongs to a music video in Arabic, released by a Syrian artist, which has been in the Danish and Norwegian top…

GALIN

Data recorded at time of publication

Two national charts, the same platform, the same ranking method, 25 days of daily measurement. Bulgaria replaced an average of 14 per cent of its top 50 each night between 26 July and 19 August 2026. Brazil replaced 88 per cent. These are not two readings of…

DC

Data recorded at time of publication

Turnover — the share of a top 50 replaced from one day to the next — separates national charts more sharply than any other measure we collect. Over 25 daily snapshots taken between 26 July and 19 August 2026, the world average sits at roughly 42 per cent. Ten…

Heitor Santos - Topic

Data recorded at time of publication

Between 26 July and 19 August 2026 we recorded 1,800 country-days: 72 national charts, measured every day, each time comparing the new top 50 with the previous one. That gives every country a turnover rate, meaning the share of its chart replaced overnight.…

bemu EDM

Data recorded at time of publication

Here is perhaps the most surprising trend of the week. Cheap Thrills, Sia's hit released ten years ago, has gathered 5.2 million views and appears in the trending charts of 18 countries. And the most delicious part is that it is not the artist's official…

Jazzghost

Data recorded at time of publication

844,000 views within hours for a horror gaming video in Portuguese. Jazzghost reminds us, in case anyone needed it, why Brazil ranks among the most dynamic YouTube markets on the planet, and why its local creators rule it unchallenged. The man has been a…

GIMS

Data recorded at time of publication

More than a decade after Sexion d'Assaut, GIMS remains a trending machine, and VIVE LA MONNAIE confirms it from the moment of upload, settling into the upper part of the French chart. A feature with Mauvais Djo, a lyrics video rather than a full production,…

A24

Data recorded at time of publication

Among the six trailers in the global top ten on 9 August 2026, one deserves a closer look than its ranking suggests. The A24 trailer for Primetime reached 39 countries and 8,762,715 views in under three days, which puts it fourth worldwide by geographic…

IShowSpeed

Data recorded at time of publication

Minecraft was first released publicly in 2009 and reached its full version in 2011. On 9 August 2026, videos built around it appear eight times in the charts we collect, in six languages and on four continents. None of the eight is an official upload, none…

Euphoric Brothers

Data recorded at time of publication

The second most widespread video on 9 August 2026 is a teaser for the ninth instalment of a children's horror game, published by a small independent studio. It appears in 51 countries with 1,603,626 views, a figure that would rank around fortieth if the chart…

KVN PRODUCTIONS

Data recorded at time of publication

The Indian film Toxic released its trailer on 8 August 2026 in four language versions published within six seconds of each other. Each version is a separate video, so each one enters the charts on its own. The result is a film that appears at the top of…

BABYMONSTER

Data recorded at time of publication

Instead of ranking videos, this list ranks the channels themselves. For every country we store, each daily chart line counts as one appearance, so a channel that places two videos in thirty countries scores sixty. Measured that way over the window we keep,…

IShowSpeed

Data recorded at time of publication

On 8 August 2026 the same Minecraft session was published twice, once on each creator's channel. IShowSpeed uploaded in the morning, Kai Cenat in the evening. Same game, same players, same hardcore run. The result in our data is not close: 41 countries and…

JYP Entertainment

Data recorded at time of publication

The 9 August 2026 snapshot covers 3,520 videos collected across 72 countries. Ranked by the number of countries where they appear on the same day, the ten most widespread videos include six trailers, two music videos and two creator uploads. On 26 July the…

Free Fire MAX Esports India Official

Amazon MGM Studios

Data recorded at time of publication

Telling the birth of a cinema myth, that is the bet of I Play Rocky, whose trailer just passed 9.6 million views with a trending presence in 19 countries. The film takes on the true story, almost implausible in how good it is, of a broke Sylvester Stallone…

SMii7Y

Data recorded at time of publication

No nine-figure license, no marketing campaign, no studio behind it. Just an absurd party game and a creator who knows his craft inside out. SMii7Y's video on Meccha Chameleon has gathered 1.5 million views and appears in the trending charts of 17 countries,…

SixTONES

Data recorded at time of publication

4.2 million views for My Only, and undivided domination of the Japanese trends. SixTONES offers a fascinating window into a market that plays by its own rules, and that the rest of the world ultimately knows very poorly. The group belongs to the STARTO…

Marvel Entertainment

Data recorded at time of publication

Between 20 and 26 July 2026, six videos were enough to occupy most of the global ranking, and every one of them announces something. San Diego Comic-Con, the restart of the video-game calendar and two streaming platforms concentrated their reveals into the…

Lagui

Data recorded at time of publication

The global ranking suggests a uniformity that national charts immediately contradict. On 26 July 2026, five major countries display five number-one videos sharing neither format, nor channel type, nor order of magnitude in audience. This guide explains how to…

Marvel Entertainment

Data recorded at time of publication

Across all our snapshots, Marvel Entertainment is the leading channel: 280 trending appearances, 55 countries reached, a peak of 48,068,780 views. Those numbers still understate its real influence. A week after the Avengers: Doomsday trailer went online, four…

EA SPORTS FC

Data recorded at time of publication

Two videos sit two countries apart at the top of the global ranking. The EA Sports FC 27 trailer appears in 64 countries, JENNIE’s Less than a Lover video in 62. Everything else separates them: the first has 3,603,055 views and a 7.6 average rank, the second…

EA SPORTS FC

Data recorded at time of publication

LyricHype

Data recorded at time of publication

Yandel’s Encantadora is trending on YouTube in 10 countries through a lyric upload from LyricHype. Today’s snapshot counts 174,977 views for this version, a modest total by platform standards but concentrated enough to place a 2015 song beside 2026 releases.…

Charli xcx

Data recorded at time of publication

Today’s worldwide ranking offers more than superheroes and Minecraft. Further down the list, four music videos draw a far more interesting map, moving from British pop to Hindi film music, then Levantine pop and instrumental house. This guide is arranged by…

Amr Diab

Data recorded at time of publication

This week’s recommendation is not the most viewed video in the ranking, which is exactly why it deserves attention. Amr Diab’s Habeitek appears in 8 countries with 389,511 views at the time of today’s snapshot, yet its average position is 6.6. It has not…

Unique Vibes

The One That Got Away is returning to YouTube trends through a lyrics video published by Unique Vibes. It appears in 21 countries with 1,100,510 views and a 27.2 average rank. Katy Perry’s song dates from 2010, yet its new circulation comes through neither…

Clayface covers 45 countries with 2,964,595 views and a 12.5 average rank. Other Mommy reaches 33 countries, 7,777,210 views and a 13.5 average. One wins geography, the other volume. This comparison shows why a view counter alone cannot measure a worldwide…

Universal Pictures

Data recorded at time of publication

A weekend does not always require a full film. Sometimes four carefully chosen trailers are enough to decide what you want from the coming months. The ranking offers an unsettling mother, a stubborn actor, a broken Batman and a mysterious movie star. Here is…

FlameFrags

Data recorded at time of publication

Gaming does not have one global language. It has global mechanics adapted by local creators. This top ranks ten previously uncovered videos by country coverage, then average position. Minecraft dominates, while Roblox, Papers Please and Meccha Chameleon…

DC

Data recorded at time of publication

Our pick of the week is Clayface. DC’s official trailer appears in 45 of the 72 countries tracked, with a 12.5 average rank and 2,964,595 views at collection time. Only the Avengers video covers more markets. For a character long confined to Batman’s shadow,…

Paramount+

T-Series

Data recorded at time of publication

Nearly 4 million views for a simple lyrics video. Not a music video, not a performance, words scrolling over an image. Adiye En Poonthene, from the Tamil film Jana Nayagan, illustrates better than any statistic the power of the Indian market on YouTube, that…

Kai Cenat Live

Data recorded at time of publication

Kai Cenat is no longer just the most watched streamer of his generation, he is becoming a full-fledged program producer, and this trailer's numbers confirm it spectacularly. The trailer for Class Of 2026, the new intake of his Streamer University concept, has…

Focus Features

ThatMob

Universal Pictures

Data recorded at time of publication

6 million views for a trailer that shows practically nothing, just a date and a few seconds of atmosphere. This countdown trailer for The Odyssey confirmed one thing even before the film's release, the entire world is waiting for Christopher Nolan, and the…

Focus Features

Data recorded at time of publication

15 million views in four days, a presence across 47 countries, and only one possible explanation, Robert Eggers is back. WERWULF, his new film expected at Christmas, just proved that American cinema's most radical filmmaker now commands a worldwide audience…

Davuiside

Data recorded at time of publication

Here is the kind of cultural object impossible to predict, yet one YouTube produces regularly. An edit by Davuiside marrying Kanye West's universe to Sedaya Noch, a classic of 1980s Russian song, ending up with 7.3 million views and a trending presence in 21…

JYP Entertainment

Data recorded at time of publication

MAPPA CHANNEL

Sony Pictures Entertainment

IShowSpeed

Data recorded at time of publication

66 million views, 3.3 million likes, and a spot in the world's top 8 music videos. Those numbers belong not to an established pop star but to IShowSpeed, streamer by trade, whose World Cup (Champions) marks one of the most revealing breakthroughs of the year…

HYBE LABELS

Data recorded at time of publication
