One of the most unlikely pop hits of 2013 was "The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?)" by Norwegian comedy duo Ylvis, which hit the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 and received nearly 450 million Youtube views. Today, the duo, consisting of brothers Vegard and Bard Ylvisaker, is at it again with the release of their new single "Trucker's Hitch," which takes the EDM of "The Fox" and blends it with a more Avicii-style country/electronic hybrid. Of course, the point of Ylvis' songs aren't the music itself as much as the lyrics, which this time around are about the difficulties of tying a trucker's hitch knot. -

Ylvis' 'The Fox' Comes to The Gridiron, Performed by Ohio University's Marching 110
Norwegian pop group Ylvis might not have had the most viral song of the year in 2013. It seems just a few weeks after the video for the absurd "What Does The Fox Say?" went crazy on YouTube, people are already sick of it. Maybe it just doesn't have the flexibility that Bauuer's "Harlem Shake" did. One group, the Ohio University marching band, put a fresh spin on the song Saturday night when it performed "Fox Say?" during the halftime performance at the university's football game against Marshall. -
Ylvis' 'The Fox': A Cultural Examination
Last Thursday, Music Times introduced you to Ylvis' "The Fox" video. Since then, the video has gone even more viral. It now (at press time) has 17,106,812 views on YouTube. So here's the question: Is it going viral because people talked about how it would go viral (a self-fulfilling prophecy sort of thing)? Or is it going viral because it is actually that great? -
