挪威神曲走紅 《狐狸之歌》很洗腦 歐美|當紅|挪威|神曲

Ylvis'music video "The Fox" raises a series of questions about pop culture. How can a video of a guy wearing a fox suit singing "wa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pow" get more than twelve million views on YouTube in less than a week?

伊爾維薩克兄弟的音樂短片《狐狸之歌/狐狸叫》引出了一系列有關流行文化的問題。穿着狐狸服的歌手唱着“哇啪啪啪啪泡”，這樣一個短片是怎麼做到短短一週內在Youtube上的播放量超過120萬的？

Last fall, two Norwegian comedians, known as the Ylvis brothers, were scratching their heads to come up with ideas for the new season of their TV show.

去年秋天，挪威組合伊爾維薩克兄弟中的這兩名搞笑歌手正在絞盡腦汁，爲自己的節目尋求創意。

For some reason, the topic of conversation soon turned to the sounds of different animals. One brother asked the other: "What does the fox say?"

因爲某些原因，談話的主題突然變爲了不同動物的叫聲，其中一人問另一個：“狐狸到底是怎麼叫的？”

Without knowing it yet, he had posed the question that more than 12 million people would ask themselves a couple of months later.

他當時還不知道如何回答這個問題，但是這便是幾個月後120多萬網友想要問他們的問題。

After writing down what they believed to be a "pretty funny" song about the sounds a fox makes, Bard and Vegard Ylvisaker, 31 and 34, got in touch with the world-famous producers Stargate. The Ylvis brothers had done a mockumentary as a friend service for one of the producers, and the deal was that they’d get a day in the studio in return.

伊爾維薩克兄弟中的巴德31歲，維佳德34歲。寫完這首有關狐狸叫聲的歌曲，他們認爲十分有趣，之後便與世界知名的製作人團隊斯塔加特進行溝通。伊爾維薩克兄弟曾爲其中的一個製作人友情製作過一檔僞紀錄片，所以這次作爲回報他們可以在錄音室合作錄製一天。
