One Pound Fish

Out for 11 days... Already 5 million hits. It is very catchy too... I first heard about it on the radio... Do you think it will do as well as Gangnam? :3

Well let me just say that was not even close to any Gangman Style. And I think Gangman Style is still better.

I must agree... It isn't as good but it is still very catchy. It is kinda Bollywood xD

That video was such a copy of Gangnam Style, plus Gangnam Style was WAY Better


I don't see the relation... xD

Gangnam style just recently hit one billion views. There will not be anything like Gangnam style for a very long time.

Apparently the man sells fish for a living, a d he sings this to attract buyers. Quite the business man.

And aside that its a techno beat and is sung by a non-white, I see no relation what so ever to Gangnam Style.

I'd like to know how videos like this get so popular.

Also, stopped the video ~20 seconds in because it was annoying.

Okay, now that Gangnam style has hit 1,000,000,000 views, will it die out?

I know, but how they get all these views in such a short time? Where are they being promoted, and how do people find these videos?

Same. I really did not like the song at all.

I do not really know because I always see them once they have become really popular or are gaining traction. Here is how I think it goes:

1: The random people that have no lives find video on Youtube.

2: Said people like said video and post it to site such as Reddit, Twitter...

3: Other people watch and like video.

4: Said other people show friends who show friends etc.

5: Said video is reposted everywhere and people hear about it on TV and MSN type places.

6: Video is now seen millions of times.

One comment was "now Hot Problems has some competition", I think they were right.
