It is not because you are getting older, Gangnam Style is horrible no matter what age you are. The dance is even worse. It literally makes me...passionately angry is the nicest way I'll put it.
To me it is as bad as dubstep and here comes Honey Boo Boo.
What has the world come to?
to Gangnam Style.

You are right. It's sad. What happened to the days when music was made by instruments, not computers, and lyrics were actually thought out, not just the dullest ignorant nothingness they are today? Why is stupid and talentless the new cool?
Okay, I'll stop ranting, sorry!

Don't worry, it's just a dance craze, and dance crazes don't usually last for very long/ Remember break dancing? No? What about line dancing? No?

I will now challenge you. Whatever your favorite genre of music is, how much of the genre was great and why did only 5% survive? The guy behind the song didn't expect it to be heard outside of Korea, it was a joke, he is a very amusing fellow in interviews. He is sort of their Weird Al Yankovic. If you were Korean and you found a Weird Al Yankovic music video and it amused you, would you grade on it's musical genius or it's amusement factor. It is much harder to get people to laugh then it is to get them to cry.
I preach sermons, trust me on this.

wow, i never would have expected such hatred for a song.
I personally think its brilliant. The beat is catchy, the dance is fun, and its an overall positive message.
Most pop music anymore is talking about sex, drugs, how much money you have, and violence. Whats wrong with a positive song, with positive lyrics? It may not be in english, but who cares?
I can understand why some people might not like it. If you don't like it, don't listen to it. If you are hearing it on the radio, quit listening to radio stations that play music you dont like.
