GANGNAM STYLE , K POP BY Psy GOES VIRAL ON THE INTERNET - CAPT AJIT VADAKAYIL
Above video show the
inmates of Philippines, Cebu City’s Provincial Detention and Rehab Center doing
the rodeo dance Gangnam style K Pop rendered by 34 year old South Korean Rapper Park Jae Sung.
I am reminded of my stay in a hotel at Gangnam Seoul, before I flew home on leave after getting down from my ship.
It is the Beverly Hills of Korea, where everything is cool and girls are pretty. Gangnam is all about new money-- a coveted address with the nouveau rich , swank cars , plastic surgery clinics, gold card clubs, bars, branded retail boutiques, and celebrities in condominiums.
This song is a satire about the rampant materialism , the South Koreans' obsession with high class Gangnam and the kimchi reeking wannabes who try hard to be what they are not in reality.
This song explores the South Koreans' obsession and love-hate relationship with Gangnam and its high class material girls.
Park paints untied bow-ties on his shirt, tries to be as un-cool as possible, and he dances through horse stables, elevators, car parks, toilets and saunas-- having dorky un-adulterated fun.
Now this planet has gone GA GA over this song. All from high to low are singing this song's praises. Tennis star Novak Djokovic and cricket star Chris Gayle did their bit in awakening this world to this delightful song.
As of today the song sung by Korean sensation PSY has gove viral and has notched up 433 million views, in 3 months flat, and I guess it will go on and swamp Justin Bieber's Baby of 2101, which had looked to be unbeatable at 781 million views.
As of now this song shows no signs of slowing down, and could be unstoppable till the 1 billion land mark.

The song is entirely in Korean with just " Hey sexy lady" showing up as English. Goes to prove that music has no barriers by way of language, culture, and geography. Absolutely required in a world torn apart by hate, greed , one-upmanship and narrow minded racism.
It is a fun song with a video showing PSY shaking his booty and overflowing with energy.
Since its release the whole world wants a piece of the quirky Gangnam pie -- what with the Internet taken by storm , and flooded with parodies, memes and copy cat videos.
Now watch a cute little baby who gets hyper and refuses to eat unless Gangnam plays .

A girl who is warm and graceful during
the day
A classy girl who knows how to enjoy a
cup of coffee
A girl whose heart gets hotter when
night comes
A girl with that kind of twist
I’m a guy
A guy who is as warm as you during the
day
A guy who downs his coffee before it
cools down
A guy whose heart bursts when night
comes
That kind of guy
Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Now let’s go until the end
Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady, Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady oh oh oh oh
JAI HO, GANGNAM STYLE!
We in India just witnessed actor Amitabh Bachchan's 70th birthday mega bash- GANGNAM SYLE --
-- the elephants were missing -- but looks like the trapeze will do , lest Maneka and SPCA gets upset --
-- almost the entire guest list were NOUVEAU RICHE -- all rags to riches-- tinsel town reeking over the top -- Gangnam style !!
PEOPLE WHO WATCH INDIAN BOLLYWOOD DANCES, WILL VOUCH THAT GANGNAM STYLE VIDEO CLIP IS NO BIG DEAL , AND IT IS BASICALLY AN EYE SORE !
ON A LESSER VEIN , IF YOU BUMP INTO ANOTHER DANCER IN A CROWDED DISCO WHILE DANCING INTO A AN AGGRESSIVE SONG - THERE WILL BE A FIGHT .
