Some memes spread — others explode. And that’s what happened this morning, when a music video by a Norwegian band named Ylvis didn’t so much go viral as it took over the collective attention of the entire internet for a few hours.
What Does the Fox Say? features adults in outlandish animal costumes reciting an Old McDonald’s-ish list of animal noises, before addressing the titular question in the chorus. There is thumping bass and a silly, easily imitatable dance: In short, it is the video internet hipsters and five-year-olds can finally agree on.It's a song so zoologically off the mark it could probably turn David Attenborough to stone. But then again, maybe he'd just crack up laughing or spontaneously cut some rug at to its heavy dancefloor beat like most people.
