That number makes it the most watched late-night YouTube clip ever. According to data from Tubular Labs, the Adele Carpool Karaoke clip is also the fastest-growing late-night clip on YouTube.

Within its first five days on YouTube, the clip had generated a record-breaking 42 million views. In addition, the video drove a double-digit percentage increase in subscribers to the show’s YouTube channel in that same time period.
