Gangnam Style makes history crosses 1 Billion views on Youtube

PSY Oppa Gangnam Style
History has been rewritten as the Gangnam Style has now crossed a staggering 1 Billion views on YouTube.After being the most watched video on YouTube South Korean rapper Psy's infectious viral hit song, Gangnam Style, made history on Friday as the first ever video on YouTube to reach 1 billion views, adding yet another record to the song's juggernaut journey into mainstream pop.

The song was first posted on YouTube on July 15 and achieved the milestone at 10:50 am EST (1550 GMT) and YouTube also showed the appreciation by having a dancing Psy doodle next to their logo.

The song overtook Justin Bieber's "Baby" earlier to become the most watched video on YouTube.PSY confirmed that he never imagined "Gangnam Style" to even reach one million.

A great achievement towards the end of the year Indeed.Would love to see more songs,dances such as these in the near future.
