The New Gangnam Style? £1 Fish Man

As I waved good bye to the cultural phenomena that was Gangnam Style, I could not help but notice this hole in my heart. There has been something missing. An obvious absence. That was until about 15 minutes ago when I found £1 pound fish man. I am not even 100% percent sure how to explain it, and maybe that is a good thing. All I can really say is that it is a Middle Eastern man called £1 Pound Fish Man, which also lends its name to the song (at least he has his priorities in order), and he is singing about, well, £1 fish. That is unless he is some kind of metaphor genius and he is really singing about a cheap prostitute that is on the rag. Anyway I'll leave it up to you.
