YouTube is the home to many strange videos and one of its most recent phenomenons has been “What Does the Fox Say?,” a music video by two Norwegian brothers, Bard and Vegard Ylvisaker. In the article by Dave Itzkoff, we learn that the video was actually just a joke they were planning on using on their comedy show in Norway, “I Kveld Med Ylvis.” That is hard to believe (insert sarcasm here). The brothers have been invited to numerous shows across America and Europe due to the massive amount of fame they have acquired. They debuted at No. 29 on the Billboard Hot Singles chart and have accumulated millions of views on YouTube. However, the brothers do not seem to expect this fame to last long. According to them, they will soon join the long list of one-hit wonders, including Psy and others. They say they are prepared for their fame to dwindle and have just been enjoying their time in the limelight.
