The newest craze to come out of England.

Not even kidding, this is a real song. It's played on music channels.

Some backstory, this guy worked in a market selling fish. He started singing this song to sell his product, now this.
Also, the backup dancers are sexy.

So that is the formula for a hit song on YouTube? Add some stupid/in other lenguage lyrics on top of a catchy tune and put in some hot girls to make it look like a real video?

Brb filming the new gangnam style...

If I remember correctly, this song is over 1 year old.

Edit: 8 months.

Well, to be fair this is your standard viral video. It's the kind of thing you watch once or twice for a quick chuckle then never watch it again.

Gangnam Style is a legitimately good song/video by a legitimate artist. This video is more like, ''WHOA, WOWEE ZOWEE THIS IS FUNNY AND WHACKY RIGHT?!''. I've never even seen the whole thing because of how forced it is.

That's why I put "in another lenguage" aswell, because they have the same effect as nonsensical / dumb lyrics if people can't understand them. The lyrics of gangnam style, if translated, make sense and its actually a normal to good song. I'm willing to bet the song wouldn't be so popular if the lyrics were in english.

I really hope this guy makes enough off this video to at least open his own fish shop.

6 million views is a nice chunk of dough.
