First the song for your reviewing pleasure...






It seems to have all the sames makings for a surprise, screwball hit. It's also got a pretty big view count for something that was released on the 3rd of Sepetember. I feel like this has a similar potential to just explode in popularity. it even has a similar beat. What are your thoughts?

Edit: I feel like I'm going to die laughing if this gets any radio play ^_^

I certain hope not, lol. I saw a tweet saying this song was hands down the song of 2013, (From Slate, no less, should have guessed it was satirical) and took it seriously, so I watched the video.

Dear God please no. I hated gangnam style with the fires of a thousand suns.

... what... what did I just watch...

I can't decide if this is the worst thing that's ever been made or if I actually kind of like it? If this song becomes as big as Gangam Style was then I'm not looking forward to the next few months. The video is pretty cool though ♥

No, god, please, no. No. No! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

On another note Gangnam style became a hit just couple days before I left Korea last summer. At first the hype wasn't so bad but I'd never have imagined it to have carried all the way to beginning of '13. By that time I was sick and tired of hearing that song on every single ****ing media.

Probably it won't be the next Gangnam Style. Probably nothing will be because it'll always be compared.

Anyway, I like some of their other songs a little more. Stonehenge and Work It and others. This stuff reminds me of Flight of the Conchords.

Oh jeez please don't! Gangam style is still ten trillion times worse, but this is really bad too.
I hope there's not another dumb song craze, at least for awhile.
I like Sandshrews. A lot. I am Sandshrews number 1 fan. And don't you deny it.

Just saw the entire video to see what ever is popular today - personally I found it boring. Glad I had earphones on & everyone is asleep, it would be embarrassing for me to be caught listening to it.
I ♥ Foxes and Cats!! - art i drew myself
instead of 'Catch 'em All' for me would be "gotta Pet 'Em All"
