| Caramelldansen. Okay I have to say this one was new to me. I've seen animated gifs of the dance before but i never actually heard the song, or read anything official about it. That being said here are my findings. Caramelldanse or Caramel Dance in English, is a song that was released by the Swedish pop group Caramell in 2001. Here is the original video by Caramell: Obviously this song was memeified, or I wouldn't be talking about it. I'm unsure as to the exact date this meme began, but wikipedia records it as being the second half of 2006. Well the meme itself is a sped up version of the song (the speeding up of the song was done by a dj: speedycake) with anime characters dancing to it. The description by the uploader reads: "Okai. Everyone. The original is a Swedish song in Swedish by the Swedish. This is that same song sped up by SpeedyCake (Who are Japanese). THe video is Japanese anime. All this remix is, is the original sped up. This is the most common and popular one. There, now STFU. " The most common offspin is the sped up version with two characters from the game/anime Popotan doing a dance to it. The dance involves swinging of the hips back and forth, knees slightly bent, and the two hands making bunny ears at the side of the head. The original meme video can be viewed below. 3.5 million views The video continues to be a huge meme success, and has over 16,000 parodies according to Knowyourmeme. "Caramelldansen Speedycake Remix" also reached # 1 on the Japan international chart. The song is extremely catchy. Below are some examples of the rehashes and parodies. As a sidenote most of the parodies I've found were over 1 million views |
