Psy performing "Gangnam Style" at the Future Music Festival in 2013. "Gangnam Style" has been the most liked video on YouTube since September 2012, with over 10 million likes as of May 2016.

This list contains the top 30 most liked YouTube videos of all time, as derived from YouTube charts.[1] The like count is taken directly from the page of the video itself. YouTube implemented a like and dislike button on these pages in March 2010, part of a major redesign of the site. This served as a replacement for their five-star rating system;[2] YouTube's designers found the previous system ineffective because the options to rate a video between two and four stars were rarely selected.[3] Of the 30 videos in this list, 21 also appear in the list of most viewed YouTube videos and 11 appear in the list of most disliked YouTube videos. All videos in this list are music videos.

The music video for LMFAO's song "Party Rock Anthem" stood as the most liked video on YouTube in 2012, with 1.56 million likes, until the video for Psy's "Gangnam Style" surpassed it in September that year, yielding more than 1.57 million likes.[4] Following this accomplishment, "Gangnam Style" entered the Guinness World Records book as the most liked video on YouTube and on the Internet as of 2012.[5] At over ten million likes, Psy's video remains the most liked on YouTube as of 2016.
