In defence of 2014, they showed a lot of non-English-speaking TH-camrs from Japan and continental Europe. So I would argue it’s a good thing you didn’t recognise a lot of them.

I had war flashbacks LOL Maybe I should check out their newer videos... I saw them in my recommended because of their coming out videos, but I wasn't going to watch a video from them for the first time in years just for that, that felt weird.
omg same and then i remembered i was wearing my dan and phil tshirt thats never been my style lmao with light blue and pink pocket i just always liked the pixelated people inside the pocket lol
The biggest problem imo is that back I'm the day, a 10-20 minute TH-cam rewind could cover enough of TH-cam to feel fair to all. Now you'd need a couple hours just to mention a tiny bit about every community. Edit: I loved Mr Beasts rewind because he hit most of the communities that I liked, but this site is still so much bigger than that.
this is probably irrelevant at this point since we're halfway thru 2022....lol but the 2014 one i remember i was so excited for all of the international people they put in!! you mentioned at the beginning you didn't recognize many people, but that's because they included popular content creators from other countries. :) like one of my fav French creators Cyprien. and Hola Soy German was in there too!

@@zebraterabyteztproductions9595 I don't think starving kids in Africa would want to see a TV show about a fruit they can't eat. I think they'd rather just have the orange.
I remember watching annoying orange when I was little and within like 1 minute of the episode I was screaming and crying and just begging my dad to turn it off. I was terrified to say the least.
I think what majorly changed in TH-cam rewind was that in its beginning it used to incorporate themes from viral videos that could have been made by anyone while in its later period it relied heavily on creators with pre established brands making cameos.
2015 rewind: had Pewds, Jenna Marbles, Dan and Phil, Rhet and Link, LaurDIY, Try Guys, Markiplier, Smosh, Hannah Hart, Lilly Singh etc etc. Gabi: I didn't recognize anyone *Girl what?*

german being in the rewind for the first time was the biggest thing that happened to hispanic people ever, i remember it so well, it was the best day of our lives. The good thing abt 2014 and further is that they included creators that went far from english speakers! Maybe for- english speakers- it wasnt that important, but for others (like me) was HUGE

Honestly I liked rewind, it was kind of a tradition, a moment where TH-cam gathered all this people and made this video for us, without expecting anything in return. But it's obvious that TH-cam no longer cares about their creators, their viewers and their platform overall.

All of the uk youtuber gang, zoella,dan n phil, Tyler Oakley, I felt like they were pretty iconic at that time so it feels weird that she didnt even recognize them
Not only was 2019 a watch mojo video, it lied. The Congratulations Pewdiepie song should have been the 7th most liked music video, but they left it off for reasons…
2012 seemed unfairly low. The inclusion of Jimmy Fallon seemed ok in the context (he was HUGE on the platform at the time), as it was a small segment in the rewind as a whole, in a way that seemed balanced with the other YT exclusive creators.
It's probably a good thing they didnt do this anymore because every year there's always controversy that goes along the line of "i was invited to youtube rewind, i didnt appear, and i dont even get compensated"
Omg I just woke up from a dream where I was stuck in a like cage thingy in the middle of a typhoon and a giant wave came crashing down on me every 30 seconds and I kept almost drowning. Nice video Goob

As a non-american, even if things were recognizable, they werent something close to heart, yet 2017 was the first one i saw things that were a part of my daily life. The songs, the people, the themes, it was all so close to my suroundings, close to us. And then they RUINED IT but we dont talk abt that-
@@frauleinzuckerguss1906 I barely remember youtube rewinds around 2014 lol, I just remember people going on about how they don't know most of the people cause they were youtubers that weren't from the UK or US
Great idea for the video. Kinda forgot about these. I’ll give you the talk show host hate, but I do strictly watch John Oliver on TH-cam despite having hbo haha.
WOW! I was seeing the video like "yeah yeah ok nice" but at 13:20 , we can see Cyprien , who is one of the firsts famous french youtubers. It's just a bit new to feel representedon this.
honestly unlocked a memory for me with 2013 youtube rewind. I was REALLY into youtube as a kid and I remember when I saw Jimmy Fallon and the roots on that year's rewind I was blown away like, woahh, that's a FAMOUS person! obviously things have changed in the decade since lmao
12:55 i dont understand this part at all. why they didn't get felix with marzia and zoella with alfie, WHO WERE BOTH LARGE TH-camRS AT THE TIME AS WELL AS FELIX AND ZOEY?? Or at least have them all together. Sorry that really angered me when it came out and for some reason it still pisses me off 6 years later
I mean I get why they didn’t put Marzia in the video cause she wasn’t a TH-camr at the time but zoella and alfie definitely should have been in the video
i enjoyed these pretty well mostly cuz it was just a massive video with lots of people i recognized and made it feel we were all a community together but the longer it lasted and grew it just became an advertisment trying to show all the "child friendly creators" and just tv celebreties and it just became nothing to me really.
i sometimes forget tbh that youtube had so much community to it back in the early 2010s bc i only looked at youtube for music videos (mostly lyric videos though) and a couple major youtubers that i liked. that changed around the mid 2010s and now i am on youtube kind of constantly but i have somehow managed to entirely miss most major creators and a looooot of major trends. so i recognize some of the people in each of the rewinds but with the exception of jenna marbles, it's all people i learned of way later through commentary videos or osmosis of vague internet culture. it's just so weird to see these little time capsules and i really enjoy watching people talk about them and say what was accurate to the time or not and what was horrible or not. from what i've gathered, i think a big thing the early rewinds have going for them is kinda just that there was less going on. i've heard so many people talk about the early days of youtube when everybody knew who the biggest creators were, and then how there was a shift over time to where there are probably thousands of channels with millions of subscribers and i will probably never know of most of them. there is such a visceral disconnect between youtube itself and what youtube executives perceive youtube to be, and that has only become increasingly apparent over time. i kinda hope youtube stops trying to do youtube rewinds. i'll take your word for it that the mr. beast rewind was good, but i think 2020 was an exception to the rule specifically in the sense that it was such a severe shared experience. 2019 and 2021 respectively both contained such drastically different individual experiences with youtube and media at large. of course there's still yt giants like pewdiepie and mr beast and jimmy fallon that most people are aware of, but there are simply too many yt channels for the widespread recognition of 2012 to be feasible again. and yes i have too much free time on my hands, and yeah this topic is not important enough to me to warrant the time it has taken me to write all this out, but idk something in me feels unwell at the thought of responding to a 25 minute video with a comment lasting all of two sentences. anyway. great video, very thoughtful and funny :) i just discovered your channel recently and i'm very much enjoying working my way through all your videos
The reason you didn't recognize many youtubers at the beginning of rewind 2014 is because they finally acknowledged that there are more than just the standard american youtubers. It prominently features creators from other languages including the biggest german youtuber of that time!
As far as the talk show hosts go, John Oliver specifically I think is allowed. Mostly because I and a lot of people watch his show exclusively on TH-cam.
I liked the vid, but I honestly just feel like you weren't in TH-cam back from 2010-2015. Lots of the TH-camrs were very popular back then and even though I haven't watched many of them for years now, I still remember them. The memes back then were also many in the rewinds. So I just think you have a bit of a bias towards the newer ones.
I would have bumped 2017 to S just because I was recognizing more international (non north american or European) TH-camrs, not SURE if that's when they started doing that, but if it was I would bump to S, I think.
I remember when 2017 TH-cam rewind came out everyone was so mad that pewdiepie wasn’t in it and also because TH-cam wasn’t listening to their audience I mean I guess the video wasn’t the bad I guess but TH-cam rewind 2017 was pretty hated

With us being the same age, hearing you say you only recognized Smosh about 10 minutes in was WILD for me to hear! Maybe I was just.... chronically online as a young teen 🤷♀️
Watching you learn a dance on the fly... That should have been a video all on its own Gabi. People ask if I can dance - and the answer is yes! It's called "Spider on a hot plate" 🤣 Edit: You didn't stop on pen pineapple apple pen?! That's the best!
There's this brazilian youtuber who does a youtube rewind (animated) every year, since i think 2014? It's called Canal Nostalgia (or just "retrospectiva nostalgia" and the year), if anyone wants to check him out- they are all in portuguese and around brazilian events more than general youtube events, but the music choices are great and the animation too
Surprised they featured the Vsauce crew in 2014. They definitely deserved more than half a second though. Fascinating that its seems like earlier on, they needed the talk show hosts to “legitimize” TH-cam, and nowadays, they NEED TH-cam to thrive.
This entire video made me like,,embarrassingly emotional? Idk from 2014 forward I was just such a big fan of TH-cam rewind. It was the best part of the year for me as a kid and watching these videos I watched countless times as a kid who loved TH-cam just brings up some emotions
I hate the talkshows hosts and celebrities in here too but it really does make sense for youtube wanting to put them in it. At this point all they wanted is to be respected by the wider media community
I actually think rewind 2014 was pretty good. The talk show hosts being there briefly was cute and inoffensive. Yes they overtook TH-cam but the other TH-camrs were given more of the spotlight so I’m okay with it.
JENNAS WRECKING BALL MOMENT MADE ME WANNA CRY FOR A SEC LIKE HAPPINESS AND SADNESS SHE WAS TRULY IN HER PRIME AND LOOKED SO GOOD THERE I MISS HER BUT I KNOW SHES HAPPIER NOW
The one that had Watch Me in it was poopy. That song gives me high school war flashbacks, I think every time I hear it I go through tiny fits of rage and depression. F- tier song and F-- tier video for including it for even a split second lol
You tube did a 2020 one. They completely wiped it because it was the most hated video ever. I remember because it was the one that parodied Jenna marbles' apology video where she announced her leaving youtube in like a weird theater reenactment style. and people were pissed.
My favourite one was the 2014 one cause there was a bunch of foreign TH-camrs and growing up watching the French part of TH-cam I was happy to see my childhood TH-camrs in the rewinds for once
2016 was personally my favourite because it was the year with the most hispanic appearances and they showed so many sides of TH-cam, gaming, dancing, health and lifestyle and the music mix was actually good.
John Oliver is great, but I don't think TH-cam rewinds do him justice. I wonder if more people see his stuff via TH-cam than HBOMax. I'd wager that's why he's on TH-cam Rewind. They probably just used stuff that got a lot of views on TH-cam. Though that then begs the question of what about stuff that does get a lot of views that isn't on TH-cam Rewind.
Your hatred of annoying orange is hilarious and justified.
Maybe I'm to young but I really don't understand the Annoying Orange hate. It was a good show one of my favorites on Cartoon Network at the time
I never understood how anyone could stand to watch the TH-cam videos let alone the shield they made for it like who is putting themselves through that?

it's just so weird to see these little time capsules and i really enjoy watching people talk about them and say what was accurate to the time or not and what was horrible or not. from what i've gathered, i think a big thing the early rewinds have going for them is kinda just that there was less going on. i've heard so many people talk about the early days of youtube when everybody knew who the biggest creators were, and then how there was a shift over time to where there are probably thousands of channels with millions of subscribers and i will probably never know of most of them.
there is such a visceral disconnect between youtube itself and what youtube executives perceive youtube to be, and that has only become increasingly apparent over time. i kinda hope youtube stops trying to do youtube rewinds. i'll take your word for it that the mr. beast rewind was good, but i think 2020 was an exception to the rule specifically in the sense that it was such a severe shared experience. 2019 and 2021 respectively both contained such drastically different individual experiences with youtube and media at large. of course there's still yt giants like pewdiepie and mr beast and jimmy fallon that most people are aware of, but there are simply too many yt channels for the widespread recognition of 2012 to be feasible again.
and yes i have too much free time on my hands, and yeah this topic is not important enough to me to warrant the time it has taken me to write all this out, but idk something in me feels unwell at the thought of responding to a 25 minute video with a comment lasting all of two sentences. anyway. great video, very thoughtful and funny :) i just discovered your channel recently and i'm very much enjoying working my way through all your videos
2014 rewind was my favorite omg how dare you 😂
Yeah and 2017 was literally so disliked too cause TH-cam wasn’t listening to their Audience
2013 is the last one I think I watched, after that I didn't recognized anyone and stopped caring about TH-cam Rewind.
The reason you didn't recognize many youtubers at the beginning of rewind 2014 is because they finally acknowledged that there are more than just the standard american youtubers. It prominently features creators from other languages including the biggest german youtuber of that time!
10:12 a little saddened to hear gabi didnt recognize dan and phil. :/ anyone else?
I was sad she didn’t recognize Jenna Marbles 3 years in a row 😭
@@Syd448 :0 omg i didnt even notice gabi nooo
I am a little sad she thought the lyrics to Call Me, Maybe were "Call Me, Write Me" (unless that was a joke that went over my head)
As far as the talk show hosts go, John Oliver specifically I think is allowed. Mostly because I and a lot of people watch his show exclusively on TH-cam.
I liked the vid, but I honestly just feel like you weren't in TH-cam back from 2010-2015. Lots of the TH-camrs were very popular back then and even though I haven't watched many of them for years now, I still remember them. The memes back then were also many in the rewinds.
So I just think you have a bit of a bias towards the newer ones.
I would have bumped 2017 to S just because I was recognizing more international (non north american or European) TH-camrs, not SURE if that's when they started doing that, but if it was I would bump to S, I think.
I remember when 2017 TH-cam rewind came out everyone was so mad that pewdiepie wasn’t in it and also because TH-cam wasn’t listening to their audience I mean I guess the video wasn’t the bad I guess but TH-cam rewind 2017 was pretty hated
Damn, just stumbled across your channel genuinely shocked the sub count isn't higher. Dang solid content!
having 2017 higher than everything else is absolutely blasphemy
that mindblow when you learn youtube rewind 2012 wasnt actually the first
2012 was probably my favorite rewind
If it weren't for Will Smith being in Rewind 2018, it would've been worse than it already is.
Aged like fine wine.
@@journey8203 how?
@@pedrogonzales4364 A joke about Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars. He no longer is as popular as he was when he was in that TH-cam rewind, thus making the comment above us no longer applicable. Hence, "aged like fine wine"
(By the way the aged like fine wine comment was sarcastic, it really should've said, aged like milk. But that's less funny.)
@@pedrogonzales4364 Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars a bit after the comment above was posted, thus damaging Will Smith's reputation, thus damaging the only good thing about TH-cam Rewind 2018.
@@journey8203 I thought Will Smith's inclusion was heavily ridiculed at the time because it seemed weird to include him as being a "big TH-camr" or even a legitimate "TH-camr" in the first place. I don't really follow these things so maybe I'm wrong.
lmao genuinely thought Dan and Phil being in TH-cam Rewind was some weird fever dream!
Also I'm happy about PTX having a cameo
With us being the same age, hearing you say you only recognized Smosh about 10 minutes in was WILD for me to hear! Maybe I was just.... chronically online as a young teen 🤷♀️
no like fr, im 15 and knew almost everyone 😭
2015 was the best one before the videos started to go downhill. You can’t change my mind
I'm french and god I forgot that they included of our TH-camrs in the rewinds. Everyone on french TH-cam was hyped about a three second appearance 💀.
Watching you learn a dance on the fly... That should have been a video all on its own Gabi. People ask if I can dance - and the answer is yes! It's called "Spider on a hot plate" 🤣
Edit: You didn't stop on pen pineapple apple pen?! That's the best!
There's this brazilian youtuber who does a youtube rewind (animated) every year, since i think 2014? It's called Canal Nostalgia (or just "retrospectiva nostalgia" and the year), if anyone wants to check him out- they are all in portuguese and around brazilian events more than general youtube events, but the music choices are great and the animation too
Surprised they featured the Vsauce crew in 2014. They definitely deserved more than half a second though.
Fascinating that its seems like earlier on, they needed the talk show hosts to “legitimize” TH-cam, and nowadays, they NEED TH-cam to thrive.
2010 gives me the most warm fuzzies.
It feels the least commercial and most community focused of all of them
i recently showed my 12 year old nephew all of these and the emotions that hit seeing them was really wild.
Ik this ain't related to the video but mamamoo dance practice in your video😭🫶 my kpop stan heart 😭😭
This entire video made me like,,embarrassingly emotional? Idk from 2014 forward I was just such a big fan of TH-cam rewind. It was the best part of the year for me as a kid and watching these videos I watched countless times as a kid who loved TH-cam just brings up some emotions
This video is the most nostalgic thing I've seen in years 😭
I actually love the first half of the 2018 one from pure chaos and memorability alone.
I hate the talkshows hosts and celebrities in here too but it really does make sense for youtube wanting to put them in it. At this point all they wanted is to be respected by the wider media community
I didn't know Rewind existed until 2018, and that's the only one I watched because well that was my only frame of reference.
"[2018] wasn't the worst..."
Immediately drags it to E tier, with no other videos in E or F tier.
youtube rewind 2022 but gabi belle is in charge
I definitely got a lot of hey look I remember that, thank you Gabi
i lost my shit at your cover of what does the fox say. pure gold
I actually think rewind 2014 was pretty good. The talk show hosts being there briefly was cute and inoffensive. Yes they overtook TH-cam but the other TH-camrs were given more of the spotlight so I’m okay with it.
JENNAS WRECKING BALL MOMENT MADE ME WANNA CRY FOR A SEC LIKE HAPPINESS AND SADNESS SHE WAS TRULY IN HER PRIME AND LOOKED SO GOOD THERE I MISS HER BUT I KNOW SHES HAPPIER NOW
The one that had Watch Me in it was poopy. That song gives me high school war flashbacks, I think every time I hear it I go through tiny fits of rage and depression. F- tier song and F-- tier video for including it for even a split second lol
The way your smile vaporizes off of your face at the 3rd annoying orange sighting is a masterclass representation of disappointment
You tube did a 2020 one. They completely wiped it because it was the most hated video ever. I remember because it was the one that parodied Jenna marbles' apology video where she announced her leaving youtube in like a weird theater reenactment style. and people were pissed.
I teared up at the start of the 2020 rewind for some reason
My favourite one was the 2014 one cause there was a bunch of foreign TH-camrs and growing up watching the French part of TH-cam I was happy to see my childhood TH-camrs in the rewinds for once
I liked 2010 due to it's amazing background music (especially 2011 since I love Avicii's song "Levels")
I’m completely biased but 2016 will always be my favorite rewind
2016 was personally my favourite because it was the year with the most hispanic appearances and they showed so many sides of TH-cam, gaming, dancing, health and lifestyle and the music mix was actually good.
Video hasnt started and i already love it :)
2012 is my favourite, 2013 would be if it had more of "gentleman" and less of "what does the fox say".
The third talk show host in the 2014 rewind was infact not a late night host. It was Freddy W of RocketJump
James Corden: he's in literally everything. you cannot run. you cannot hide. he will find you
watching all of these rewinds together gives me a huge nostalgia trip
I had war flashbacks with 2020 rewind because of Unus Annus. It's also been a few years now and it's scary how the time flies.
John Oliver is great, but I don't think TH-cam rewinds do him justice. I wonder if more people see his stuff via TH-cam than HBOMax. I'd wager that's why he's on TH-cam Rewind. They probably just used stuff that got a lot of views on TH-cam. Though that then begs the question of what about stuff that does get a lot of views that isn't on TH-cam Rewind.
I should've been ready for Gabbie Hanna but I still got jump-scared by her fake monologue
Talk show/late night hosts have a huge presence on TH-cam so it makes sense to include them
Seth Green? 😭 Lmao but yeah I understand the frustration with all the hosts and celebrities.
