Enduring early morning music video program Rage has released the Top 50 most popular videos of 2011. The publicly voted list – almost as important as FL’s own Top 20 videos of the year– was topped by Hottest 100 favourite Somebody That I Used To Know. The Aussie dominated 50 also included a few outsider gems, including Brendan Maclean’s superb Cold & Happy clip and The Bedroom Philosopher’s disturbing ode to public transport striptease, Tram Inspector.
