Most weeks we see lots of music videos in the most shared lists. But this was even stronger, and was clearly dominated by two music videos, both of which were released almost at the same time. The first one was the new video for Gorillaz -Stylo, which immediately got the attention of the internet, getting 1.1 million views so far on Youtube, but it certaily has more since it's on other services like we're showing it here:
Gorillaz ft. Mos Def & Bobby Womack - Stylo Enviado por indarnb. - Ver os últimos vídeos de musica em destaque Amazing video, like we're used to coming from this band. And the other video that dominated the week is from another band that we're used to getting great views. Their career was almost launched due to a viral video, one that now has more than 60 million views on Daily Motion, and now they've done it again. With an incredible Rube Goldberg machine, they gone to the top viral video charts and got 3.4 million views in mere 3 days! If you haven't already, take a look:

I said they have dominated this past week but the truth is, they're still dominating it right now, and for sure will continue in the next days. Other noteworthy viral videos this week were a Pedigree ad with great slow motion and dogs catching treats. People love seeing animals, particularly cats and dogs, so being as good as it is, no wonder it has gone viral (and now we've seen virals for pretty much everything, even dog food!)

Finally, we have a great stop motion lego animation that started going viral yesterday. It's fan made for a competition, like most stop-motion videos it displays the great deal of effort gone into it, and shows great filmmaking. Have a look:
