Hatten är din

The hat is yours

A music video executed in Flash which is currently challenging for the undisputed title of funniest thing on the web. Ever. Viewing this Swedish/Middle Eastern masterpiece will most likely leave your psyche fundamentally altered.

The content more or less defies description, so here is a bald URL: http://come.to/hatten/

A translation of the lyrics is available at http://www.geocities.com/pommesrotweissx/ - some highlights include:

• The hat is yours, the hat is yours
  Hat-baby, hat-baby
• This is hopeless
  We find this is becoming gay
  It was always fun
• Glue piece of ham, cool
  Glue piece of ham, cool, cool

The hat is yours - enjoy!

Unfortunately the songs found there only feature humorous translations and no video. Furthermore, the lyrics aren't nearly as hilarious. Still, they're good for a few chuckles if you know the language. There are no English translations, but then again what would be the point? What makes it funny is how the Arabic vocals sound exactly like Swedish. When I first saw Hatten, for a while I thought it really was sung in my country's second official language.

(update)
Ok, since so many non-Swedish-speaking people don't seem to get the point of Hatten Är Din, let me put it as simply as possible.
The song is NOT really sung in Swedish.
The whole point of the joke is how a foreign song can sound just like Svenska, with insanely silly lyrics.
Laugh, because it's funny.
And yes, I am aware of the several joke pages claiming Hatten is a real Swedish drinking song. They're pulling your leg.

For all the Nokia GSM owners who can't get enough of the tune, here's a simple ringtone I quickly put together:

This is my stab at an English translation. I think it reflects the slight disjointedness of the Swedish lyrics better, and the expletives are less prettified.
