Gangnam Style has hit Egypt : Hobba Egyptian Style

[hagar-tammaa.livejournal.com]

I just saw this on TV. I didn't even know that Gangnam Style has hit Egypt yet but apparently this has been out for a while.

And if people were debating if Gangnam Style was cynical or not, I tell you people THIS is cynicism in it's best way. I love it.

Alert: The translations on the video has NOTHING to do with the meaning of it. I really don't understand what they are doing with it .

I'm arab yes ^^ not egyptian tho. I'm palestian but the family all grew up in lebanon. and some are living in syria and jordan now. So I'm familiar with lebanese and palestian dialects the most. I can sort of keep up with egyptian tho. but the other north african dialects are lost on me XD

ha don't worry I talk arabic and understand very well but I still can't keep up with the other north african dialects (I understand their french better and I suck at french haha)
