* ValuesResonance: "Smi mens liket er varmt" is a jab at journalists who like to tear down people and don't bother to check their facts. Sadly, it is just as relevant today as it was at its 1989 release.

* AcceptableProfessionalTargets:
** Lawyers. When the unscrupulous conman in "Han hadde båt" finally gets caught, his AmoralAttorney lawyer claims that he's "[[BlatantLies too unwell]]" to face the courts and go to prison - never mind that he was mentally capable of keeping many scams going simultaneously up until he was caught. The court system itself gets hit when it falls for this excuse and [[KarmaHoudini gets the conman released]].
** Journalists. "Smi mens liket er varmt" is a scathing critique of journalists who publish rumours as facts without bothering to verify them, go out of their way to tear down celebrities for daring to be imperfect, and are [[IntrepidReporter pushy]], [[LackOfEmpathy unemphatic]] {{Jerkass}}es towards people who have experienced [[IfItBleedsItLeads tragic events]].
** While he avoids making {{Take That}}s to specific politicians or parties, he likes to bash politicians in general for their bad governing[[note]]doing things as cheaply as possible, even if it's impractical and will be much more expensive in the long run[[/note]], SkewedPriorities[[note]]such as blowing money on things like sport venues even though people who can't get healthcare are dying needlessly[[/note]] and inability to keep their election promises.
* AcceptableTargets:
** "Byens hi-fi asyl" makes fun of audiophiles who spend tons of money on expensive playback equipment by drawing several parallels between their hobby and drug addiction. Vendors of the stuff of aren't spared either - the one in the song is portrayed as an elitist who essentially bullies his customers into buying his merchandise.
** "Mesterkokken" mocks exclusive gourmet restaurants.

* HarsherInHindsight: The 1981 song "Liten og grønn" is about a Twin Otter lamenting that its model will soon be outdated and discontinued. It was right -- production stopped in 1988. However, the song later became HeartwarmingInHindsight after another company purchased the type certificate and restarted production.
* HeartwarmingInHindsight: The 1981 song "Liten og grønn" is about a Twin Otter lamenting that its model will soon be outdated and discontinued. This prediction came true in 1988, but the model was given a second chance in 2008 when another company purchased the type certificate and restarted production.



** "Liten og grønn" is told from the perspective of a Twin Otter that enjoys his job, but knows that he'll be forced to retire in a few years and be demoted to rubbish forever.

Added DiffLines:

* AlternativeJokeInterpretation: "Boltiten" has a couple:
** During the shark cage diving, the cameraman has to swim outside the cage. Are the producers so LethallyStupid that they don't realize there's a problem? Do they take the IfItBleedsItLeads mentality so far that they ''intentionally'' put the cameraman's life at risk? Did they notice too late that their cage was too small for two people, but still wouldn't to postpone or cancel the segment?
** The call-in competitions on the channel ask questions like "Where is the Amazon jungle?" and "What time is it?" Are they just using the ExcuseQuestion trope, or is the song implying that the viewers are so stupid that they actually find these questions challenging?

* TheCatchPhraseCatchesOn: Some expressions from Sunde's songs have found their way into Norwegian everyday speech. Examples include "gåsemor" about a black and white police car, and "kjekt å ha", which roughly means "nice to have" and is used as a reason/excuse for keeping an item, often something one should get rid of.
