“The Fox” Isn’t Even Ylvis’ Best Music Video, We were among many millions of people who fell in love with Norwegian parody-pop duo Ylvis last week the moment we heard them ask, in slightly accented English, “What does the fox say?” Their viral music video uncannily reproduces the clichés of today’s pop music, both musically (the broken “oh-oh-oh” à la Kesha) and lyrically (“Your fur is red/ So beautiful/ Like an angel in disguise”).
The satirical precision of “The Fox” isn’t surprising when you consider Ylvis has had years of practice—brothers Bård and Vegard Ylvisåker have been performing together since 2000, and they’ve released a number of other slickly produced music videos over the years. Below, Ylvis’ five other English-language music videos, all of which are worth watching for fans of “The Fox.”
