 Most artists/songs would only get a few hundred thousand views on Youtube for that kind of video, so it's not worth worrying about as it won't make much difference.
Having 5 actual proper music videos that were different and professionally made for the same song would actually make a difference, but it wouldn't be a guaranteed #1 by any means, it wouldn't even guarantee top 40s for most artists.
