I just wanna see it hit a billion views, it's a catchy song.
Plus, watching MovieBob dance to it at the Escapist Expo was just epic.

Every artist who has a massive hit feels the same. Cee Lo and Nickelback were the same when they first hit it big with Crazy and that one song Nickelback did. Of course he's getting fed up, it's a global thing, everywhere he goes he can't escape it, imagine how we feel about it, then x by 10 because he's heard it so much more and he made it and he has better songs that people won't appreciate.

It's depressing because I like Psy, I like Gangnam style, but they're both going to be victims of success now. He's going to more than likely be remembered outside S.Korea only for this. Anything he releases now will just be seen as lackluster, or an attempt to recreate Gangnam.

Gangnam Style itself is probably something like Macarena that we'll look back on in 10 years and think 'yea that was pretty silly'.

Music is kinda' like crack except the fact that the "addiction" to it only gets weaker over time.

To put it simply; this shouldn't be news, it happens with every huge one-hit-wonder.

Don't get me wrong, Gangnam Style is catchy as fuck, but that doesn't make it any less susceptible to age.

It's still a catchy song but yeah, I'm starting to get sick of it.

There is such thing as too much of a good thing. If the media hadn't fixated on or used the song so much, it wouldn't be as bad. That being said, after almost 6 months it is time we find something else to move on to.
this. I love the song but too much is too much.

Why do musicians always moan about having insanely massive hits? They should just be thankful they're not stuck in some meaningless dead-end job like the majority of us and get on with it.

I was under the impression that it was already sort of dying off. Sure it was annoyingly huge the 1st few weeks but after that, I heard nothing of it other than the occasional reference. Hell, the last time I saw it was when South Park parodied it in their Halloween episode. So ya...I don't think it is quite as strong as it once was. For me there really is nothing to get tired of.
It may not get shoved in your face everywhere you go but I wouldn't say it's dying out. Around 8 million views a day in Youtube (and that's just the official video) is ridiculously huge.
I'm more referring to its influence outside of the online world. Lately though, no one ever talks about it where I am at...and for that I am eternally grateful.

My exposure to Gangam Style was winding down a couple weeks back, with only a few good remixes on Youtube popping up every now and then and no sight of it on the music channels for ages.

Then the local radio stations got ahold of the fucking thing...

needless to say I could go a while without listening to the song. My fault really, I should have learnt my lesson about 'Don't turn on the fucking radio' during that hole Carly-Ray Jepson or whatever her name is craze.
I kreep on hearing that name lately. Who or what the fuck is it?

The song is really catchy, but I think it may be on its way out soon. I understand it since he has multiple albums out and he's pretty big in Korea. He's just milking it as much as he can because he probably won't ever have another hit in the western part of the world.

I only hear it when I go to youtube and look for it. So I can't say I'm sick of it.
Pretty much the same as my exposure to the song. I only hear it when I want to.

I'm not sick of it at all, but it hasn't invaded my life the way it appears to have done for other people.

Plus, I'm the kind of person that will listen to a song on repeat for three or four hours without noticing, so it takes a lot to really kill a song that I like.

On a slight tangent, it does annoy me that the only times I hear it on the radio it's some mangled edit with only the bridge and chorus and none of the verses; presumably because they assume cars will fly off the road if they hear someone singing in a different language for more than ten seconds at a time.

It is suffering from the same issue Napoleon Dynamite had.

Please, just get to a billion Youtube views before you stop performing it.

It will be legendary.

I totally understand why he feels like this, and I'm starting to get sick of hearing it everywhere (I heard it while getting my hair cut a couple weeks ago).

Surprisingly enough, his other music is actually pretty good. I wish a couple of his other songs were as famous as Gangnam Style.

I still love Gangnam Style, but I do not blame Psy for a moment for being sick of it by now. I would be too at this point.

Overplayed song is overplayed. It's not a bad song and the dance is fun and funny but it's the same thing as "Don't Stop Believing" in that it's played everywhere. I also hate how people will never branch out and listen to other stuff by the artist they claim to love so much.

What really got to me was the plethora of parodies. People were parodying a song that was a parody! What the fuck is that about?
