Mostly because it's a hell map? (Considering Scarlet Rose and Mythologia's End are tying for third, this makes sense.)So most votes fall to popular songs and\/or hell maps. A good look at osu!'s demographics.Congrats for the mapper of Gangnam Style for seizing the opportunity of, well, making the Gangnam Style beatmap so it can win Best of 2012. <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/div>\n \n Mismagius<\/a>\n\n \n Beatmap Nominator\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n \n <\/i>\n <\/div>\n <\/a>\n\n \n <\/i>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n 9,340 posts\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n ed July 2008<\/strong>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Mismagius<\/a>\n\n \n 2013-01-09T14:46:48+00:00<\/time>\n <\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n The votes were clearly made for the remarkability of the map, and not the song.

Top 100 of 2012 is still dominated by Touhou, anime op\/ed and Vocaloid. However there are still additional cases so we saw FD, big black, dragons and so forth on the list 5s4w20
