Gangnam Style !

Hello !

Sorry I totally disappeared but I had some things to do and so on ..... but I  am back now ! ^^ 

There is at least one million things I want to do but only one month vacation :S ... in any case , more updates will be coming soon . 

Now lets talk a little about PSY ! Cause he is so epic ! haha .
Of course I know him for a long time , since he became part of  the YG Family . (  For those , who know YG , you would understand why I am saying this - YG artist are just differen ^^ ) Maybe I will talk about YG another time . Now back to PSY ! 

I was totally shocked to see he is becoming so famous and I am so happy for it . At the same time , it makes me a little worried - you know that feeling when you have discovered something that is kind of "yours" because no one around you knows about it and then suddenly everyone knows about it and it is not anymore   "your thing" and ... it is almost as you have been robbed ! haha . It is ridiculous but it is true !  It is a paradox - you always say to your friends - check this out , it is great ! But no one pays attention ... When finally everyone is paying attention , you are like ... "ok , now , take it slow . Don't ruin my thing " .

Gangnam Style  might remain to be only a one hit wonder , but nevertheless , I am happy for PSY's success .
The MV of the song -  just so hilarious  ;)  !

and ... there is one more thing . There are so many kpop artist - all of them beautiful and young and flawless .... so who would think it will be PSY to create the hit of the summer . But because it is him , I am so content ! Ok , it is the beautiful and flawless kpop artist that probably paved the way... BUT it is PSY being himself the main thing . 
Looking good and have super expensive videos are not the only thing that sells things and it is not the only thing that can  make people interested in something . People like originality  .... or maybe they just like cathy songs ! lol !
In any case , the popularity of Gangnam Style ,  proves that if something is cool/good/original/, the world can know about it , even without any media had ever tried to promote it . Youtube creates the trends and the media comes after just to comment on them .

The people who don't know anything about kpop or Korean music , or Korea in general , might find the song catchy or the video funny or riduculious or strange or whatever . It doesn't matter . The good thing is that youtube is a way to make people explosed to things that come outside of the shell they live in and this is a kind of provocation for all of them .

In any case ,  I like PSY for his ... how to say it ... his attitude . Why PSY is so awesome ? Well , he has more than swag ! He really has such energy a person would never expect to find in someone who looks so ... normal ( at first sight  , from a distance :P) . I presume that to be on his concert would be a great experience , cause he can make you dance and jump and forget about everything ! 

I checked his album I suggest you to do the same . For now I have "Blue Frog" ( the first song from the album ) stuck in my head - that is because I love what it means and it is really gives me positive energy . The fact that GD is part of the song is great , but this is not the reason I liked it ! 

So , today I decided to make a kind of "sing along" version of PSY's Gangnam Style and if I have time in the next days , I will do "Blue/Green Frog " lyrics video as well . 

this is the lyrics video !
