The person who uploaded the YouTube video with 5 million views, will have made a small fortune over the advertising revenue, due to click rates.
Legend!
For God's sake, it's not even close! You must have a terrible taste in music to compare gangnam style with one pound fish. They're probably making fun of us!
I hate this song and can't really understand it's massive appeal?
Its certainly amusing. I think everyone deserves such high moments in life, just be happy in the happiness of someone.
No it's not but the Brit and Pakistani media are trying to make it one so that they can have a story to fill their pages for some days. I find it cringe worthy to be honest. Also when truth about his visa abuse will publicised in Brit tabloids, it will give a bad name to Pakistan's and immigrants in general.
we should proud of such person, at least, he tries to shows a better of image of Pakistan in the west. I hope the best for his future.
only if youtube was working in pakistan, its views would have been another million plus views.
@Samar_Yz: youtube's banned bro..
Let's make this the most watched video of 2013...cm'on Pakistan! If each person watches it 10 times, we can get 2 billion views! So much for Gangnam style :P
The gentleman "one pound fish" went to UK on student visa.
After he became popular, he is been under continuous servillance by the Boder Agency as how he has been living in UK without having proper work visa.
It is anticipated that he may be sent back to Pakistan to apply for a proper work visa so that he should stay in UK legally.
I wish him best of luck in selling "one pound" fish in UK.
Indeed it is.
