Boyle Destroys 2009 Youtube Competition

Singing sensation Susan Boyle's TV talent show audition clip was the most watched YouTube.com video of 2009, according to a new countdown.

The unlikely Scottish star shot to fame after wowing Simon Cowell and his fellow judges on Britain's Got Talent - and the moments she stunned the U.K. became a viral sensation online, propelling Boyle to overnight superstardom.

Boyle didn't win the contest, but she did win the hearts of music fans around the world, who couldn't get enough of her big moment, which has scored over 120 million views since it first appeared online in April (09).

David After Dentist - a clip of a child recovering from a trip to his dentist - came in second with 37 million views.

JK Wedding Entrance Dance, which featured a choreographed wedding ceremony, was third on the new Most Watched list with 33 million.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon movie trailer came in fourth with 31 million worldwide views.

Meanwhile, rapper Pitbull's I Know You Want Me scored the Most Watched Music Video on YouTube.com, ahead of Miley Cyrus' The Climb and the teen pop star's Party In The U.S.A.
