MTV News reports that PSY is planning to move on from "Gangnam Style" after he performs it at tonight's Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. The song hit #2 on the Hot 100 as its peak and has now dropped to #19.
He said: "Being in Times Square on New Year's Eve is already special — it's the biggest stage in the universe — plus it's my birthday, so, with all that, it may be the ending of 'Gangnam Style. I mean, what better way to do it? It's my biggest and most meaningful birthday."
He said that even though the song will never actually go away, he wants to write a second single to get another hit. He added: "The song became too popular, and so you start to have some concern about its life period. I'm really working hard on a new single right now, and I'm not saying ['Gangnam'] is ending on 'Dick Clark' — I still have a lot of invitations to perform it ... I'll be in Paris, and in February I got invited to perform in China, and I've still got to do promo. So let me say that in America I need a new single because 'Gangnam Style' got too popular, so I've got to write a new single."
