That was a good video.

Very high quality at full screen and nice production. More fun then the original.

One thing which really helped the parodies was that they released an instrumental version of the song and thereby making it easier for parodies to be made.

For more than 2 months now there is about 4 times a day a truck with blaring speakers driving around my area announcing some local election and pumping the gangnam song through the speakers.

I live at the end of a dead end street and near my house those trucks take a rest for some time before turning back, but they don't shut down the speakers during their break

I HATE THE SONG.

A Billion is a million x million, unless you are an American Billionaire talking about your wealth ( aka bullshit ) Obviously numbers get exaggerated when talking about popularity, I will just ask my 8,000 wives to get me 16,000 beers out of my 4,000 fridges. That will fill my one mouth full of <deleted>.
