Anyone who doesn't like Gangnam Style has no sense of humour or fun and is probably not worth knowing

You can't tell it's supposed to be funny? It is. It's funny, and intentionally so. Some of the parody in the lyrics is no doubt lost on non-Koreans, but some of the visuals don't require a cultural context to be funny.

Already jumped 12 spots to #15 on the UK iTunes chart.

On another note, some of my friends are thinking of starting a campaign to make Gangnam Style the Christmas #1 of 2012

I hadn't heard this before i watched Saturday Night Live on Sunday where they featured in in a sketch and I listened to it properly just a few hours ago.

It's utterly bonkers and I love it

Usually I despise these types of novelty songs but how can you watch that video and not want to replicate those moves??!
It is also around #15 on Irish iTunes at the moment so I wonder if it is on the verge of becoming a big hit...

be interesting to find out what sort of stuff people find silly and fun if they don't find this fun.

and i don't mean in the pretentious "oh look, anything by cheryl cole is stupid" way either .. just genuinely silly, fun songs

Well, I think we should congratulate the peoples of Central America for their taste and discretion.

This is just music for people who find Pitbull a bit too left field for their tastes, isn't it?

Or maybe it's music for people who just like having a giggle at some silliness ?

that'd be like a beautiful nightmare. for a song like gangnam style to get to number one, it would be proof that the charts are missing something...

...male artists that have a similar visual appeal to female artists.
