Ask HN: What's your favorite YouTube video, ever?
Post a link in the comments :D
I don't know about favorite ever, but I've discovered Harry Mack freestyling about a year ago and have spent dozens of hours catching up on the entire backlog, this man is a genius (and this is not a music style I even care for) . This particular video is my favorite of his due to the infectious beat and sheer positivity: https://youtu.be/dxYah-Tlkmc. Everything he does is an instant classic though.

Hard to choose, but I always enjoy this one:

probability of someone getting rickrolled in this thread is very high
The King of Microrhythm -- composer David Bruce discusses J Dilla (and many others), and how to compose and play (!) off-grid.

RedLetterMedia Phantom Menace review. A remarkably unique mix of comedy and genuine insight.

I feel like the Star Wars prequels were largely ignored culturally for years, but after the Plinkett review they keep coming up. There are even weirdos who insist they're good now.

For everyone else, thanks for sharing! Normally i think sharing videos is bad mojo--the Internet is so personalized that favorites are difficult to share. But I really enjoyed most of what has been shared so far!
