What is special in the least about this song/music video?
It's not even in English..which 90% of the most popular songs usually are.

Seriously..could this song be a psyop that is secretly full of subliminals and other hypnosis methods to test the effectiveness of such techniques.

This just doesn't seem natural at all for such a mediocre song to achieve such over whelming sudden fame.1 billion views in 6 months is insane.

Two words.

The Macarena.

People went crazy over this song. Nobody cared about the group before, nobody cared about their songs after, but back in the day, this song was the song. Because of one thing...

...the dance obviously. People like dances that are funny/catchy.

It's fucking weird. It's happened before, but this is on an even bigger scale. The guy got lucky.

We're all like children, getting excited to a silly dance. Add the pop-ish beat to it, and a funny looking korean, and you have 70 year olds loving it along with their 3 year old grand kids to their 35 year old parents.

I was doing that horse dance move when I was a kid, should have patented it.

Precisely, Most big charted music videos only cater to 12-30

Psy appeals to all. Every single one of us can put ourselves in his place, and do the horsey dance in our hometown or locale.

We dont have to have boob jobs or learn Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson complicated choreography that takes months to learn and years to master.

Gangnam is finaly a video that reached the real people.

Well, this settles it. If Ashillyon weighs in for it, then it's DEFINITELY some type of illusory Illuminati crap...
