The people trashing on Gangnam Style are probably the same people who think "Eat It" is bad because Weird Al doesn't sound exactly like Michael Jackson - _________ -;; | ||

"Oppan Gangnam style" = I'm Gangnam style Like certain other Asian languages, Korean uses a number of different pronouns depending on social status and relationship. "Oppa" is often used by young women to refer to older male non-romantic friends, and for such older male friends to refer to themselves. "Oppa Gangnam Style" would mean "Your older male buddy (in this case referring to Psy himself) is 'Gangnam Style.'" Edit: I know almost no Korean, so I couldn't possibly say whether "Hey sexy lady, Oppa Gangnam Style" is supposed to come off as somewhat creepy and forward, but given the content of the video, I suspect probably so, and it's probably a lot more funny for a Korean speaker. | ||

If he dislikes it, that's fine, but he seems to think he's doing something more than uttering his personal preference. (He's not.) The only opinion I stated about my taste is that I enjoy some pop music. Do I see it as an art form, though? No. I see good music as an expression of emotion - something you can reflect on and something that reveals information about the artist, the listener, or both. This song was made solely to make money, push an extravagant lifestyle, and make people want to dry hump each other drunk in a night club. Just like you enjoying this music is an opinion, me calling it garbage is an opinion too. This does go a little beyond personal opinion. I call it garbage music because it's throw-away. It will have it's week(s) in the spotlight, everyone will get sick of it, and it'll show up again years later a couple times as a 'hey, remember this?' track. If you find throwing things away to be offensive, then I suppose I've offended you. I admit to painting with an overly-broad stroke. There is some pop music with emotion, substance and creativity that does last, and becomes a 'classic.' This song isn't a good example of that though. To end on a lighter note, I think the video is quite brilliant. It makes me giggle my ass off. The guy's definitely a great entertainer, and a great salesman. I don't see how GOM could go wrong getting this guy to perform live... maybe even guest-MC | ||

The same people that are poo-pooing this song and name-dropping whatever classical composer pleases them are probably the same people that think death metal isn't music and electronic music is artless and just for dancing. | ||
