Oppa Gangnam Style
The “Fun” category on this site is tragically underused. We could all use a little more fun in our lives, so I’m going to try to fill it up with some good stuff.
Have you seen the Oppa Gangnam Style video on YouTube. It’s a song by a Korean artist known as PSY. He’s pretty well known in the Korean Pop music scene (KPop) and I can see why. The song is catchy and the dance is simple, very silly but still awesome. I can totally see why it’s showing up everywhere. Even the parodies are excellent.
You can download the song from iTunes here. And check out the Official YouTube video below:
The dance has already become a popular internet meme. Check out the Baltimore Ravens punt returner doing a Oppa Gangnam Style touchdown celebration.
Here’s Nelly Furtado doing her version of Oppa Gangnam Style in a recent concert.

The YouTube video currently has 130 millions views and growing fast. Congrats to PSY!
Warning: I’ve played his song and done the dance so much that I’ve annoyed the hell out of all my family members. Use caution. 🙂
