Macedonia: Most Popular Pop Songs on YouTube

Igor Mihajlovski published [MKD] an interesting analysis of number of views of Macedonian pop songs on YouTube, sorting them by time periods (1945-1979, 1980-1999, 2000-2010). He included videos of the late international star Toshe Proeski, whose interpretation of folk song “Zajdi zajdi” is the ‘winner’ with almost 4 million views. The results also show that duets with foreign artists definitely draw eyeballs, and point to the rise of popularity of hip hop.
