In today's blog we ponder...what would the fox say? Norwegian duo donned the animal costumes and got 70+ million hits on YouTube.

My boss and his wife named their newborn son Fox.

We will now know what the fox says.

Hello, hello, hellooooo.  It's been a while.

Before we begin, from what I understand there is no real mystery.  Foxes just kinda bark.

Anyway, do me a favour, and watch the above video.  Don't read on until you do.

Go ahead, I'll wait.

We open up on a typical Norwegian cocktail party, with...wait, was that person in a...and another...wait, what?

Right.  I truly have no idea where to go with this one.  Norwegian band Ylvis has put together this...uh...song for our listening pleasure.  After reading up a little about the band, I understand that they like to parody popular musical conventions, and knowing this there's really nothing to mock here because they're already doing it.

Except for the old bearded fellow traumatizing what is probably not really his grandson.  The kid looks cool for most of the parts he's in, being a brave little soldier, but when the old man starts to howl, you can tell that he probably peed a little.

The entire female wait staff of an Applebee's seems to have put on face masks to dance in this music video.  I'm surprised that I didn't see a single amused smile from the dancers though.

And the animated fox.  Just...just....argh. I don't know.  I just don't know.  

And the fact that the first seven or eight times I watched this video, I couldn't stop laughing in disbelief.

Really, all I can say here is FRAKA-KAKA-KAKA-KAKA-KOW!

Thanks, Norway.
