The Fox

"This song is made for a TV show and is supposed to entertain a few Norwegians for three minutes — and that's all. It was done just a few days ago and we recently had a screening in our office. About 10 people watched — nobody laughed." — Bård Ylvisåker talking about THE FOX Remember when PSY's "Gangnam Style" took the world by storm in 2012? 2013's answer to a global song and dance phenomenon, similar to hits like "Macarena" and "The Ketchup Song", is a little ditty by Norwegian duo Ylvis.
