I think you must be unaware of the fact that Ylvis (consisting of Norwegian brothers Vegard and Bård Ylvisåker) is a comedy duo.

“The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?)” was a musical sketch from their comedic Norwegian talkshow (Tonight with Ylvis, 2011–2016) that just happened to go viral. Very viral.

Seen in the proper context, The Fox is pure comedic genius. And it’s a parody. Saying that it’s ‘cringe’ negates the fact that it is meant to be ‘cringe’.

Both brothers are talented musicians and songwriters, who just happened to have been led astray by the dark forces of comedy. It’s happened before.

Don’t believe me? Try some of their other songs:

• Trucker’s Hitch (country/dance)

• Stonehenge (power ballad)

• The Cabin (funk)

• Massachusetts (musical?)

• Someone Like Me (musical/dubstep)

I submit to you this 1977 disco cover of ‘Apache’ by Danish musician Tommy Seebach.

Along with Fuckingfascists and Genocidejoe, Fuckingcapitalists seems to be quite the catchphrase for you.

While fascism is (nauseatingly) on the rise seemingly everywhere, and capitalism is fucking most of us over, I’m not quite sure if the genocide thing refers to the US support of Israel, or something else.

Either way, is this single-word rampage really accomplishing anything? Those three words are almost exclusively (or at least to a high degree) what you post in any given comment.

At the very least, could you not save a pre-formatted linked snippet for each word that you could link to an article or blog post giving your position some context, maybe inform some people who don’t have all the facts?

Yes, fascism and fascists suck. Yes, rabid capitalism and capitalists suck. Yes, genocide sucks, and Biden, while light-years better than the orange fucktard, and every single republican enabler asshat, also sucks.

I’m just not sure that you’re living up to your full potential with these low-effort comments.

Obligatory Yacht Rock shout-out! Playlist with all episodes in HD.

If you haven’t watched Yacht Rock, you’re in for a treat! Probably one of the best mockumentaries ever created, with the added bonus of the music, which is Just. So. Damned. Smooth!

I don’t know the artist — is the sped-up audio intentional/part of the song? 😳

Edit: I’m an idiot, my player was set to 1.5x speed 🤪

And clearly it sounds great! 😃🤘

I’ll rephrase — they weren’t the notes she was planning 😊

But yes, fair point 👍

When recording Honeysuckle Rose for the album “Ella & Basie”, Ella Fitzgerald started the song in the wrong key, instantly corrected to another wrong key, and then found her spot on the third line. Supposedly, everyone loved it, and that take/session made it onto the album.

The ratio between how much I used to listed to Ben Folds Five and the post 20 years of “not even once” is mind-blowing.
