Have you seen it? Can you do it? What am I talking about? I’m talking about Gangnam Style. It’s daft, fun, and it’s caught people’s attention around the world. The song, sung by the Korean pop artist PSY, has become an international hit. More importantly, the dance that goes with it, has caught on – big time!
Since Gangnam Style was released in July the video for the hit has been watched more than 700 million times – on YouTube alone and this figure is rising fast. It has more than five million ‘likes’ on the channel and is officially the most ‘liked’ on YouTube. The question is – can you dance Gangnam Style? You can’t? I think you’d better watch the video! The song has gone to No 1 in 28 countries.
