It's being called the next Gangnam Style (or the third, if you count Harlem Shake).

Ylvis host a talk show, it was just meant to be a funny ad for that.

Their other videos are less crazy and funnier IMO.

the next Gangham Style

...Have you heard of 99 Luftballoons? It was the catchy foreign pop song in English-speaking countries that made it big when Psy would have been maybe 10 years old.

Come sail your ships around me, and burn your bridges down.

I remember

Yatta!

Denghis Khan (Moskau was in particular popular)

Tunuk Tunuk Tun

Funny dancing foreigners has ALWAYS been a Internet fad. It's just Internet fads have more of an impact now than they did in the pre-youtube era.

Well, the thing about that song is it has an English version And I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's where its popularity came from.

And it's really not very crazy by 80s pop standards, or at all.

It's also different in that it's actually good.

I've heard the phenomenon described as, "99 Luftballoons arrived in America and everyone spent the summer dancing to it and demanding an English version, then all the dancing ground to a screeching halt when they got an English version and realized it was a song about nuclear holocaust."

Watched the music video.

Can't get it out of my head. The guys at Motorcity seem to be offended though.

I think it's an example of Springtime for Hitler, in that Ylvis had intended it as a throwaway joke to promote the new season of their talk show and it ended up becoming a massive hit.

Am I the only person who doesn't like this song at all and is sick and tired of people in the school hallways ALWAYS reciting the chorus of it?!?! I'm not trying to be a Fan Hater in any way, but it's getting really annoying!

[up]Well, I can't say I relate since I've been out of high school for several years now.

[up][up] I don't think you know what Springtime for Hitler means.
