The shade of Deban with William vibing next to him is everything I needed in my life. Honestly I loved this song.

Yeah, that contrast is priceless.
This is definitley a stand out song and it is top 3 contender for representing Norway in Eurovision definitley. And also, if Little Big could be huge favorites with the equally silly "Uno" then why not this? And even if it doesnt win MGP the song will be forever still included on every playlist at future EuroClubs anyway. It's the "Bombo" and "Laika" of 2022 😁
It's like a mix of Ylvis and Little Big XD

Well, as a Norwegian, I can say it fits right into the party scene here. Lots of moment you can sing with them on and funny at the same time. Certified banger.
I just laughed out loud through the whole video😂😂Tired of all those serious ballads, need some fun desperately .

Subwoolfer are ahead of the rest of the pack in MGP imo. The only entry that really made me excited for the contest! One of the voices sounds a lot like Gaute Ormåsen from Norwegian Idol.

@Sir Stevia for me it was strong on paper, on the actual live show semi 2 was stronger but I get your point. I'm not a hater, I love his message and his a great guy but that song ugh.....but still I think juries would put Subwolfer in the last places
So excited for this final hahah! Team Subwoolfer!!!
This must be Ylvis
This song is truly brilliant and catchy. Since Keiino aren't entering lets get this to Eurovision!
Usually I wouldn't care for this type of song but OMGGG THAT BEAT!!🤩

Subwoolfer must win
The official music video reminds me so much of ,,The Masked Singer" when you have to take care of the given hints. In this case, they are placed very obvious. I ❤ the costumes and the Song ^^
For most people watcing mgp and esc the lyrics are not all that important. I think the lyrics in english is most important for you native GB citizens. And I think most of those who do recognize the lyrics will think this is fun. The whole concept would not be the same, have the same impact, with more serious lyrics. So cheer up Deban.

I definitely agree with you - I even have friends here in the UK who don't listen to lyrics either. The music and visuals can swing everything. Best of luck to your favourites!
It's my winner so far
This is a "joke entry" that makes me laugh. That's RARE. Most "joke entries" are nothing more than three minutes of absolute cringe. "Keith" and "Jim" may be faceless characters, but so were the members of Lordi. Humor can be tricky, but it worked for Verka. It all comes down to the song. This isn't a song that can be done in a weekend. I think this song has all the necessary elements to succeed. It is witty, yet polished. It is memorable and catchy. Moreover, it comes with a choreo so easy that even my grandma can dance to it.
OMG Deban and Pinterest is killing me. LOL. Love you boo! As for the song, I'm totally agreeing with Deban on this one. The beat and sound are great, but when I listen to the lyrics, it kills it for me.
subwoolfer are my favorite in mgp 2022, i am going to vote for them on febuary 19 :)
This *HAS* to win. It HAS to! It's the only one that stands out in a crowded market of Europop and rock and ordinary singers, with no Eurovisiony songs. This is the only song and act that makes sense for Eurovision. Stood out on my first clip hearing it and stands out now even after 50+ listens. This NEEDS to blow up! Make it win! This will _surely_ give Norway a top 5 victory at Eurovision! With such an interesting choreography, they surely will have to nail the dancing and staging for this song at least?! I don't see it being preformed badly compared to some of the other songs. It will lift everyone up. Hopefully people will catch their drift and start dancing to the song, creating a beautiful moment of unity for everyone.
Norway has 1 Job and to send this song to Eurovision
The arrangement actually reminds me on Norway's 2017 entry JOWST.
I want what ever William's having.
Still much better than the chicken song from 2018
Clearly a potential winner of the whole contest. So after what they did last year and if they send AGAIN for the second time something ordinary instead of this .....I'd cry scandal...clearly.

Lyrics, the fairytale red riding hood 😉 Grandmother, wolf, give that wolf a banana...
Deban, have some fun!
I'm from Norway and this is the only entry that makes me excited. I feel that, depending on the performance, it would do very well with the audience in Eurovision. Idk about the boring jury, but nevertheless I'd rather send this than the other boring songs we have.
Please listen to this song at least twice...you'll love it, believe me 😁. And Deban, have some fun my man.
This is my number 1
I really appreciate it and hope that it wins. OMG i love it
Did I mention how much I love that intro song?
give that wolf a banana or death of us for the win
This or Elsie are by far the best ones
Haha those lyrics. Little red riding hood is a popular fairytale here😀 wolf and grandma. Lol. I wonder how this will sound live though. One of the voices sounded like Gaute Ormåsen, but I might be way off. Not really his style either:p I gotta add, the Ylvis brothers are actully really great singers. Especially Vegard when singing the song Jan Egeland^^. Truly talented!
I enjoy this song unironically 😂😂 also, will you react on Eesti Laul semi final songs?
COME ONE GUYS EUROVISION NEEDS THIS TYPE OF SONGS IN THE CONTEST RIGHT THIS IS A JOKE ACT BUT I LOVEEEE IT THEIR MUCH creative THEN THE OTHER ACTS THAT I LOVE THAT SO MUCH RESPECT MEN THE NETHERLANDS 🇳🇱 WILL GIVE 12 POINTS TO NORWAY 🇳🇴 I LOVE THE SONG OKEY IT SOUNDS A LITLLE WEIRD IN THE BEGINNING BUT I STILL LOVE IT
Plot twist…. It’s secretly Jedward coming back for round 3😂😂
I love this song so much!!
I love it!❤
This is from SEmi Final 3 out of 4 semi-finals and has been pre-qualified straight to the final. Also pre-qualified are Elsie Bay from semi final 1, Christian Ingebrigtsen from semi-final 2 and NorthKid from semi-final 4.
Deban you must not be so serious all the time, this song is really happiness on earth after 2 miserable years of shutdown and pandemic .. this is really what we need .. humor, wonderful rhythms and party !!! there is a difference between nonsense and humor .... this is really a song Eurovision needs !!! not all music needs to have deep meanings and seriousness, it should evoke emotions and this melody evokes pure happiness for me!!!! YUM YUM
Much like with Supernova this year, I am torn between the Serious Music Critic in me that thinks Elsie Bay should win, and the chaotic vibes part of me that wants Subwoolfer in the Eurovision mix. 🤣 Like, I would respect Elsie winning, but this would be such a fun time at Eurovision.
Norway really liked the randomness of Songs they collect

Can we make this a fun EV for everyone for once and stop taking it so god damn seriously? We need songs like these in these difficult times.
The Ylvis brothers on disguise ???
4 months before the second semi final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2022
that hairy coat of yours with nothing underneath combined with sensual ending just killed me , nearly choked myself of laughter! beautiful pastiche at its finest !
We need more of this sort of thing at ESC! Boundary pushing but fun, rather than creepy!
Great point about how this will be live. They will be in the third part final on the 29th, so we will find out then.
I'm a bit worried about how they'll recreate this live. The staging will probably be hit or miss and it will certainly be interesting to see how they handle auto-tune live. Though you're right, if it's actually Ylvis I'm pretty sure they can pull it off
Ylvis brothers combined Ytterst på tissen What does the fox says. And some of the stories from norway songs.
Its Ben Adams and Gaute Ormåsen. Ben is from the boyband A1 with Mark Read and norwegian Christian Ingebrigtsen.
that eat grandma line.. i think is from the little red riding hood story??
Is it Netta Lucky Cat behind you?
I like this, and it is definitely inspired by Elvis and the very popular show "Maskorama" (the masked singer in Norwegian) that feels a little cringe but also very fun 😏
I hated it and then I became obsessed!
💃🕺🏻💃👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Crazy but funny lyrics. Absolutely fabulous music/beat. Super catchy. I can't stop listening/dancing to it. 💕
Lets be real if alians saw human music. I think they would make something like this. First they find out about a known story to play on. Then they research humans and what music they like. The combine the hype electric parts and slow parts. And they make sure not to have to many words to not make it hard for themselves. (Since they probably dont speak english.) This is kinda like the AI made song. Blue jeans and bloody tears? Cant remember what it was called. But with less lyrics.
Its my fav so also Your loss is good
I mean, without the liveshow at least this has got some of the same problems as TrollfesT in my mind. I kind of like both entries, they are pretty catchy, and the concepts and lyrics are really funny to me. But as song structure and such, TrollfesT’s entry almost feels a bit too chaotic for my liking, while this gets a bit boring and falls a bit flat to me. But as William says: The liveshow will make or break this, as well as the TrollfesT entry in my opinion

The lyrics in subwoolfer tell about defeating corona (wolf) with a vaccine (banana) before it kills the elderly (grandma). That’s not too funny... but seriously genius!
They just won the norwegian contest🎉🎉🎉 I also believe its Ylvis🤩
This is SO YLVIS the comedian behind The Fox ;)
You can liken the lyrics of this song to covid and the vaccine. If you listen carefully. It's really catchy and like it alot
Hello, for me the best Song at San Remo Festival 2022 Is " ciao ciao" by the band " i rappresentanti di lista" this year number One in Italy.....ciao ciao
william is such a legend!
This is a page from the bubble gum days when food denoted sex.... I'm all.... bananas.. over this LOL
I really don't know how I feel about this 😂
12 points grom Poland!
Oh Deban, Deban, I am so with you on this one.
I'm sorry I'm with Deban on this one. Whilst their is a catchiness to this song and it is one of the stand outs of mgp, its still a joke entry, albeit a polished joke entry. I feel like Norway have other songs that have potential to do well at Eurovision. The thing is there are some other songs I really like in this selection and I guess the live performances will be the best place to judge them. I do think though personally that Norway has other options that could get very respectable places in Eurovision.

@@TheManInBlueFlames Um sorry but I will respectfully disagree. As someone who is from a country where people constantly talk about joke acts and think of the contest as a joke, it's quite frustrating to see people constantly talk negatively of the competition. So to stop that from happening or lessen that, countries should send good quality entries to eurovision because actually the competition isn't about joke acts and it's sad to suggest that it is even if countries have sent entries like that in the past. What it is actually about is countries coming together for a few nights of good music, a good time and to discover new songs that they like and for new artists to listen to like Maneskin or Duncan Laurence.

@@Hope00Love I was just saying how there are entries in this national final that are of a really high quality and although this song isn't awful, I don't see why they should bypass some other quality entries to send one like this, that's all I'm saying. To me this is a polished jokish entry and I think there's other entries that really could be amazing on stage but I guess we'll see what they're like live :).
This will do better than most people think. It’s gonna be t3
I think people go too far or too little with this one. I think its good, the beat is there, it can be a moment, however I don't think this is somehow Eurovision winner potential at all. In all fairness I don't think any from MGP are. On the flip side its by no means terrible.

I do have a theory: I think there is 2 singers in the back, and just dancers on stage! The singers: Gaute Ormåsen and Jowst! And btw- this is a sensual song, about sex!
Are Subwoolfer actually Ylvis? Take a look at the clues on our web site: wiwibloggs.com/2022/01/10/norway-are-ylvis-behind-subwoolfers-melodi-grand-prix-2022-entry/268386/

This is a well produced.... joke act. Which i think is a shame. It reminds me off Basement Jaxx - Back 2 the Wild (but that song was done better) However it's one of the better songs overall in the Melodi Grand Prix 2022 pool this year T_T
I mean it's fun, but I don't like the song as a whole. And doubt it's Ylvis because it doesn't really sound like them!
Deban where's your sense of humor? LOL
