The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?)

"The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?)" by Ylvis is featured on and.

Classic
The routine contains a trio of a leading male fox and two women as backup dancers.

P2
The lead dancer wears a costume of a fox with a white stomach. When the chorus hits, he also has a grey-silvery jacket and a gold necklace on. He keeps the jacket after the second chorus. He has a bold yellow outline.

P1/P3
The backup dancers wear pink and orange dresses and fox masks both resembling little red riding hood. When the chorus hits, they keep the fox masks on but the rest of their outfit changes. They then have grey shiny shirts with sharp-triangly fox heads on them as a design. They also have very short skirt resemblings coloured dark grey in a shiny fabric too. Their pants are plain, darkish coloured paired with dark green high shoes and a neon lime green coloured glove.

Campfire Dance
The alternate routine contains a duet of two men.

P1
P1 is wearing a green raccoon hat and spectacles. He is wearing a short-sleeved brown scouts' uniform with badges and pockets and is wearing pulled up socks. He is also wearing shorts and an orange belt.

P2
P2 is wearing a big hat similar to 's and is wearing the same scouts' uniform, except with long sleeves. His pants look like jeans and are longer than the first dancer's. He is also wearing an orange fanny pack. Both are wearing the same type of socks and shoes.

Classic
The routine takes place on a field; when Ylvis sings "__ goes __" the animal appears with a speech bubble saying its noise. (e.g. dog goes woof; dog appears saying Woof) At the chorus, and the second chorus onwards, it changes into a replica of the background of the music video with more dancers behind them. At points, neon fox signs light up on the tree branches.

Campfire Dance
The routine takes place in a campsite in the woods similar to that of the Classic routine. There is a pitched tent and several lamps. There is light in the tent, and silhouettes of animals described in the first verse of the song appear. (e.g. dog goes woof; dog's silhouette appears)

There are 3 Gold Moves in the Classic routine, one of which is exclusive to P2.

Gold Moves 1 and 2: Make a clawing pose. Gold Move 3: Swing your arms back and forth (only for P2).

Gold Move 1: Raise your right leg and grab your groin. Gold Move 2: Same as the first two gold moves for backups of the classic mode, but involves a lean onto each other.

Trivia

 * As with the On-Stage routine of #thatPOWER, P2 has more Gold Moves than P1 and P3. P2 has 3 and P1 and P3 have 2 each.
 * The song was originally called The Fox. In the final version of the game they changed the title to The Fox (What Does The Fox Say?)
 * The choreography looks like the one from music video.
 * The background dancers also bear a resemblance to the ones in the music video.
 * The woods scene from the chorus and bridge also resemble the music video.
 * This was the second song to have an alternate routine announced, after I Love It.
 * However, in a vote to see what new gameplay would be unveiled, this song assumingly came last to Happy’s Sing-Along and I Love It’s Guard Dance.
 * However, the full preview gameplay of the Campfire Dance came before the Sing Along.
 * Iggy Azalea referenced this song in her video for Black Widow, which is also in the same game.
 * The dance starts as a storybook that says "What Does The Fox Say?".
 * Coincidentally, there is a published storybook titled "What Does The Fox Say?" by Ylvis.
 * During the chorus in the Campfire Dance, the dancers are lip synch-ing the words.
 * This is the second time a dancer from a trio is used in an alternate routine, in this case Party Master Mode, having Dark Horse the first.
 * In the Mashup, Hey Boy Hey Girl’s pictograms fade a "beat" late and Jin Go Lo Ba has a newly-created pictogram at the beginning.
 * The Campfire Dance is one of the few routines that follows the lyrics: for example, they imitate all animals mentioned in the first verse, and P1 whispers in the ear of P2 during "The secret of the fox" is sung.
 * In the Campfire Dance, around the first Gold Move, the coaches imitate Michael Jackson by tilting their (imaginary for P1) hat, then grabbing their groin. P1 wears a hat, but it doesn't have a rim. P2's hat does, however.
 * The lyrics in the beta Community Remix were red; however this was changed to orange in the final version.
 * The fox was used on the picture by Just Dance for Easter.
 * There are two different colors for the Mashup squares which can be found in the files.
 * At some point the dancers perform some parts of the official Beat It choreography.
 * This is one of the songs selected for the Just Dance 2015 World Cup.undefined
 * Raven-Symoné and friends have danced to the Mashup of this song.
 * This is the second song of Norwegian descent to not be a cover, the first was Take On Me. It's followed up by Am I Wrong. The first official song of Norwegian descent was Barbie Girl, where the lead singer of the band "AQUA" is Norwegian. However it's covered.
 * Based on the body figures and facial expressions, the back up dancers in the chorus resemble the back up dancers in What Is Love.
 * P2 from the Classic routine was later reused in Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae) as P3.
