YouTube Rewind 2019: For The Record (also known as YouTube Rewind 2019) is a video that was uploaded to the YouTube official channel on video-sharing website YouTube on December 5, 2019, as part of the YouTube Rewind series. Although it was marked as an improvement over the previous installment: YouTube Rewind 2018: Everyone Controls Rewind, the video received mixed reviews. Critics and the general audience found the video not creative in comparison to past Rewind videos. However, praise was given for the addition of popular YouTubers.
A reason for the improvement over 2018’s Rewind video is due to the addition of YouTubers which had not been in the previous installment. These include MrBeast, Shane Dawson and PewDiePie. However, the video has amassed over 3.1 million dislikes within 24 hours of release, making it the 10th most disliked YouTube video of all time. It also gained 2.4 million dislikes in 18 hours, gaining more dislikes than "Everyone Controls Rewind" did in 24 hours.
Overview
The video returned to a format more reminiscent of the early iterations of the series, featuring a montage of the top videos of 2019, divided into several themed countdowns based on statistics and trends. The video begins with a 'rewind' of 2019's most viewed/liked videos on YouTube. It then cuts to a scene from YouTube Rewind 2018: Everyone Controls Rewind where Casey Neistat and the Merrell Twins suggest K-pop as one of the themes for the rewind. Following this, it cuts to multiple YouTubers reactions to this scene where it has been labelled as awkward and YouTube themselves stating that "In 2018, we made something you didn't like. So in 2019, let's see what you DID like. Because you're better at this than we are", with the words on screen. A compilation of trending YouTube videos from 2019 is shown, then cuts to the words on screen, saying "You made these the Most Like Creator Videos", in the form of a 'Top 10' list, with a short snippet of each video playing at their appropriate times.

Reception
The 2019 edition returned to a format more reminiscent of the early iterations of the series, featuring a montage of the top videos of 2019, divided into several themed countdowns based on statistics and trends. Kevin Allocca, YouTube's head of culture and trends, explained that the video was intended to be more reflective of the year's trends, acknowledging that it was becoming more difficult for the previous format to "authentically represent" the community's overall experience.[2]
The video has been criticized as coming off as "passive-aggressive" towards consumers, or "lazy" as it does not have the same level of production as the previous rewinds and was noted as being akin to than WatchMojo videos. Many also felt the new format had no energy behind it.[3][4]
However, many saw improvement with casting choices in some areas, particularly with the inclusion of Felix "PewDiePie" Kjellberg, who was absent in previous Rewinds.[2]
Similarly to last year, some viewers criticized the site for not honoring the deaths of famous people on the site such as Desmond "Etika" Amofah.[5]
As of December 6, 2019, the video has amassed over 3 million dislikes, making it the 10th most disliked YouTube video of all time.
