Here are some of the songs topping the charts from music hot spots around the world.
Worldcrunch Pick:
The American R'n'B singer Pharrell Williams released the world's first 24-hour long music video at midnight on Thursday, for his song "Happy." The video played on 24HoursOfHappy.com and started out with Williams walking around town in a green sweater.
The 40-year-old was then cleverly followed by 336 dancers and celebrities such as Steve Carell, Jamie Foxx and Magic Johnson. The video adapts to the time of day of the user, who can also go back and forth in the 360 different takes of the 4-minute long song. Check the video out.
