Um to the yah yah!

This made me so happy...

The original “Gangnam Style” has more than 200 million views on YouTube, and it has sparked a number of American spoofs, including Midshipmen from the Naval Academy's 22nd Company who created their own remake of the video.

Saturday Night Live spoofed the sensation this past weekend, which included a cameo from Psy.

The Korean rapper recently defended 13 California lifeguards and their supervisor who lost their jobs after they filmed a spoof version at their pool facilities without permission, according to the LA Times

What do you think? Is this better than the original?
