"ObamaSongs" painstakingly tracked down precisely 800 songs about Barack Obama from the wilds of YouTube and assembled into a single collection for easy viewing.

The chart to the right shows that whoever is responsible for this found more songs closer to the election, which makes sense.

Because nobody has the time to plow through hundreds of songs about Barack Obama in one sitting, even on a Friday, "ObamaSongs" courteously created a 137-song playlist of his favorites.

This got us wondering: which candidate has a stronger YouTube presence? A search for "McCain song" pulled up about 15,200 videos, while a search for "Obama song" returned around 49,700 videos.
