PSY - video live reactions

An unenviable record of that time we decided, for some reason, to just blast our ears with nonstop PSY for a long time, edited down for your listening pleasure.

A warning: the MVs for Gangnam Style, Gentlemen and Daddy all feature rapid flashing lights or rapidly flashing cuts.

In order: Gangnam Style is at (1:53), Gentlemen at (6:54), Daddy at (11:11), Hangover at (16:00), and New Face at (22:40).

  • I heard Gangnam Style as I was writing up these notes and got flooded with a full-on unbidden memory of high school, a time I try to blot out in my mind.
  • In defense of the visor, it's a very practical piece of headgear especially when you want shade but also don't want hat hair.
  • And, yes, the gag or the point of the song in Gentleman is identical to PSY, but more obviously mean, leery, and inappropriate.
  • I supposed "that thing with the tteokbokki" is the closest to "that thing with the horses"?
  • CGI adult face on baby body will never stop being terrifying
  • I'LL BE YOUR CURRY YOU BE MY RICE
  • If you wanted to see the stage version of these songs, I've got you covered. Here's Gangnam Style at the 2015 MAMA show.
