Play That Foxy Music, Norway...

We don't want to appear culturally insensitive, even if we are - we just don't want to appear that way. But, we're quite concerned about what's happening in Norway these days. Once upon a time we had some friends from reindeerland and they explained to us what things were like there:

• cold
• dark 
• white
• really cold
• boring
• well, you get the picture

This pretty much sums it up - design provided by IKEA

They told us that for the folks who live in the Northern part of the country in particular - drinking was the number one national past-time. Out of this frozen wasteland has emerged a pop sensation - they call themselves Ylvis (no relation to the King), and have solved the riddle of what foxy music is all about among other things...

Over 200 million views on youtube...

We're not sure if these guys are trying to be a real band or the next Flight of The Conchords - jury is still out.  BTW - what ever happened to the Conchords and why do these bizarre comic / signing duos (or trios) emerge from remote snowy and mountain regions - is it the altitude?

They are somewhat politically incorrect as well

We're not sure it was exposure to extreme climatic conditions or simply that these guys are just silly, but they've managed to create an interesting mix of pop comedy songs across a wide variety of topics. But be careful, their comic signing is probably a bit edgier than the Conchords and is often MA rated.

They've come to America - and we think they're mocking us...
