20 Thoughts I Had While Re-Watching 'What Does The Fox Say?'

This music video might have gotten even weirder the longer I went without watching it.

20 Thoughts I Had While Re-Watching 'What Does The Fox Say?'

Just a few days under three years ago, in a much simpler time, a video was gaining popularity and circulating the internet with rapidly gaining frequency. So many words can be attributed to the viral video and its corresponding soundtrack: strange, confusing, funny, shocking; but one thing is for certain, no one will forget the first time they watched "The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?)".

For me, it was an ordinary day of my senior year, after classes had ended, but before musical rehearsal had started and students had a habit of playing music videos on the classroom projector. On the day in question, my attention was directed toward this unusual video, this unique mix of shouting and costuming; I had never seen anything quite like it before. Tonight, I am revisiting that moment and documenting it, all for you, the readers.

1. Everyone is standing around in animal costumes, but like it looks like a fun party.

2. Why isn't the singer in a costume? Is this some Gatsby situation where he throws the party just to watch his guests?

3. Is this a children's song? This is all information I'm aware of.

4. Does an elephant really 'toot'? Would we trivialize them that much?

5. Oh, now he's in costume and he's a fox, makes sense.

6. Don't foxes bark? Because they're related to dogs?

7. Why would you assume that a fox would make ANY of these insane sounds?

8. Who is this old man? What story is he reading this poor child?

9. Why are the lyrics across the bottom of the screen? It's not like we'll recognize this gibberish.

10. "Like an angel in disguise"? They have a weird relationship with foxes.

11. TBH their singing voices aren't terrible.

12. Why does this set look like the opening of the Twilight movie?

13. Omg they're floating...but it's unclear why. Or how?

14. This seems like a song that a middle schooler wrote for a science project.

15. THE FOX IS DANCING

16. WE KNOW ITS SOUND

17. And also this fox has some serious moves.

18. Aw, he has vanished into the forest again. Goodbye, fox.

19. This party got wild. Lasted until the morning and everything.

20. Wow, 2013 was a weird year.

I strongly recommend re-watching this one for yourself and taking a trip back to yesteryear. But, I warned you, it's pretty weird.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
