Gangnam Style: Fyodor surrenders to the inevitable...

...or, None dare call it World Music.

 From Youtube:

PSY - GANGNAM STYLE

Can half a billion of my brothers and sisters be wrong? I suppose.

Sure it's a catchy tune, but if I posted every catchy tune here [chronologically] , I wouldn't even be up to Paganini yet, so it's not just that.

Could it be the hot Korean [I'm assuming, of course. All hot babes look the same to me - HOT!] babes? Could be, but I'm still working my way around the babeverse alphabetically and I'm not done with the letter A yet. [Albanian babes are hot! Oops! I forgot the Azerbaijani babes.]

It's better than Frausun or The Magnetic Fields, but that's damning with faint praise. It's not better than The Cramps best stuff, or Tav Falco's Panther Burns, but few are. Maybe it's the natural attraction one feels for the new and slightly different.

Maybe I should just shut up and dance...

Whatever. It's fun.

As you probably guessed from the video, the song is basically about pretty girls and why they should go for less than perfect guys. But for those of you who must know, here are the lyrics, sort of.

English Translation:

Oppa is Gangnam style
Gangnam style

A girl who is warm and humanle during the day
A classy girl who know how to enjoy the freedom of 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 one-shots his coffee before it even 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

A girl who looks quiet but plays when she plays
A girl who puts her hair down when the right time comes
A girl who covers herself but is more sexy than a girl who bares it all
A sensable girl like that

I’m a guy
A guy who seems calm but plays when he plays
A guy who goes completely crazy when the right time comes
A guy who has bulging ideas rather than muscles
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

On top of the running man is the flying man, baby baby
I’m a man who knows a thing or two
On top of the running man is the flying man, baby baby
I’m a man who knows a thing or two

You know what I’m saying
Oppa is Gangnam style

Eh- Sexy Lady, Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady oh oh oh oh
