Comment by Susann on 11th mo. 23, 2013 at 2:46pm: Thank you, April! I checked wikipedia, too, and had a good laugh at finding out that the brothers who wrote it call it, I quote, "a stupid fox song" and "comedy", while it has also been called "a parody of the excesses and absurdities of contemporary club music" by people who didn't write it. :-)

Comment by April Flake on 11th mo. 22, 2013 at 10:57pm: According to my musical daughter, the original song was written as a joke by brothers who have a talk show in Norway.

Comment by Susann on 11th mo. 22, 2013 at 3:58pm: I love some of the quotations in the parody...and then went and listened to the original, which really gave me pause and made me question the state of a) popular music, b) Norway and c) mankind. This song...what is it supposed to mean? What???

Comment by Ray Lovegrove on 11th mo. 22, 2013 at 11:00am: Funny, but also very moving.

Comment by Daniel Wilcox on 11th mo. 22, 2013 at 10:08am: Hilarious;-) a creative satire.
