Bohemian Rhapsody becomes the oldest video to get 1 billion views.
It is the first music video released in the 1970s, or any year prior to the 1990s, to reach the milestone.
Psy's Gangnam Style was the first video to manage the feat in 2012. It now has 3.3 billion views.
However, that pales in significance next to Luis Fonsi's Despacito, which hit 6.3 billion plays earlier this year ‑ making it the most‑watched video on the site.
In fact, Bohemian Rhapsody does not even make the Top 100 most‑played videos on YouTube.
