Ever wonder why "Gangnam Style" video broke Utube records? hits over billion?

Majority of us heard or see the video of famous Korean singer Psy on his dance move / song "Gangnam Style". I have done quick research and I find out there was imitation of his dance and song from each continent and from more than200 countries all over the world. Old and young dance to the tune. You know why? Why this song, why suddenly explosion of this Gangnam inspiration? Psy the singer invited all over the world from presidents offices to UN office in New York. Why? Simple:1. All People are the same. Gangnam Style proved that, brought nations together and danced to the tune. Black, white and all colors, different nationalities they like the same one song.2. People need change, need something to feel good about, and Psy managed to that.3. Everyone of us have inner child on us. Either you are VP, Manager, normal worker, grown up and have families and never ending responsibilities, but always there is inner childish on us. Just need a trigger to explore it, and Psy managed to do that. Moral : We can implement in our work place and in our homes to bring changes and be easy going and bring harmony. Thanks Hassan Al Jabri Author of the book "Gangnam Inspiration" (Search in Google)

That's what I love about Communication/ Media studies, we can talk about anything under the sun :)

You have interesting points. I think Pop culture at times manages to produce something 'ridiculous' which is amusing and entertaining at the same time and a diversion from the monotony of this life. I know his dance steps were quick to learn and fun to do.  Good luck with your book!
