Interesting Youtube stats

A little over a month ago, I posted 2 short video clips on Youtube. They were both short out takes from 2 different Alizée videos. One I called "Beautiful smile". It was after she had performed J'en ai marre and then was interviewed on stage afterwards. They started playing Moi Lolita and the audience started clapping to the music and this beautiful look of embarresment came across her face. The second one was from her first appearence on Stars a domicile, near the end of a show where she was suprised by the appearence of another singer.

When you post a video on Youtube, they have a thing called insight which allows you to check to see where in the world the video is being watched and by what sexes and age groups. I thought the Beautiful smile clip would be more popular because I loved that look that came across her face but the Alizée suprised clip did much better, getting about triple the amount of views. I've posted about a dozen videos in the past few months and for the most part, the most views have been in the U.S. and then other countries all around the world lagging behind to different degrees. The age groups are for the most part 20s up to 50s and usually the sex is largely male which is very understandable, but this one video, Alizée surprised has been most popular in France and most popular with young female teens.
I wonder why. Is it because it's associated with the program Stars a domicile which I don't know if it's still being filmed . I'm not sure. I'd like to think it's because she still has a potential young fan base there that's waiting for her to come up with some more songs that will appeal to them.

These are popularity and demographic charts from my Six pack of Alizee video which is pretty typical of just about all the videos. The darker the color on the world map represents where it's being watched the most. The darker green on the lower chart, in the circle represents male viewers, and the lighter green female viewers.

These are popularity and demographic charts from my Alizée surprised video. You can see there's quite a difference. The demographics chart is for France itself.
