It's only the fact that Melodifestivalen now is never ending that actually kinda is bögarnas fel. And no I do not feel offended by this song. I think it does a great job pointing out the absurdity of, especially religious, people blaming gay people for everything. I think religious people might be more offended by this song than any us lgbtq people. I mean it brings up a lot of bad things that comes with religion and how ridiculous lots of religious people are. Basically this song is mostly bringing up terrible things that are done/caused of/by religions/religious people and how they put the blame elsewhere. Another similar song and classic everyone knows and you should check out is *Storswänsken by Euskefeurat,* it does pretty much the same thing but about racists and racism.
Well, the LGBTQ groups did get offended by it, after all, it's the get offended by everything group... Proper gays weren't offended by it at all, it's all them queers that get offended by everything on this god damned planet. But I don't think the religious people got offended at all, maybe the Muslims, but I didn't hear about any terror attacks in regards to it, so most likely not. And I agree it is the gays fault that the Melodifestival never ends, after all Christer Björkman is the one dude running it, and he's gay. And let us not forget the song he made... Imorgon är en annan dag. A song so horrendous that they could use it to torture people at Guantanamo Bay.
@@Templarofsteel88 or is it? If we're going to be very accurate in the political sphere, a lot of bad stuff that has occurred since the 90s is due to the gays, in quite a literal sense. Now are the gays to be blamed for the things done in their name, not necessarily, because most of the horrible stuff that has occurred is due to women with very sick imaginations, that want to make old man+non legal boys a thing. However I don't blame the gays for that, after all we've not done anything to make things worse, there's however some of the alphabet people who are less how to phrase it politely, sane. Some would even say that anyone in that specific group would only be able to contribute to society from a 6 by 3 by 6 feet hole in the ground. Some might even claim that the groups name is a synonym for weird. Have a great day and remember that it's Bögarnas Fel.
As one of the "bögar" who we're referencing I do have to admit that the thing about "schlagerfestivaler som aldrig vill ta slut"... Yea that's accurate xd Melodifestivalen, Eurovision to some extent yea that's on us 100% 😂😂😂
The group is "Grotesco". Probably inspired by Galenskaparna as much comedy in Sweden is. Henrik Dorsin is one of a kind tho (the bald white guy singing). Controversial but still incredibly funny! Edit: Ah you got it right :) Nvm, I'll leave the comment hanging! :)
😂 Oh my, I had somehow managed to completely forgotten about this satire but as soon as you mentioned Galenskaparna & Aftershave and Grotesko.... well, they where and are always pushing the limits 😂 Thanks for the snicker! Needed that😅
@@JonathanRollinssthlm305 in 2009 Grotesco did a mid act between the songs and votes. and russians hated it and it went shitstorm XD watch it.. you gonna LOVE it XD
On youtube you can find (3) grotesco tingeling part 1, part 2 and the final (full version where they go to Russia first). The Russia thing as a whole and at the end of the day, may be one of the best things ever made. Like anywhere. Amazing.
Love it bro. In my opinion understanding the humor is the last most crucial thing to being fluent in a language and being part of the culture. Welcome brother, the viking spirit runs in your veins 😁. I'm subbing for more classics.
You're correct, I don't think anyone took offense at the time. At least I never heard anyone honestly complaining about. Quite sure it wouldn't be produced today though, although it's only been 12 years.
Jag tror inte folk blev stötta av den ursprungliga videon, men när Grotesco sjöng den i Allsång på Skansen blev de anmälda till Granskningsnämnden (som förstås lade ner ärendet). Jag gissar att någon zappade dit, inte lyssnade ordentligt på texten och totalt missade att det var satir.
I would say that being offended was more of a thing back then, than it is now. Before 2016/17 humour was more ”politically correct” than it is today, for some years. When it comes to this song I think it was so obvious that they made fun of homophopia and not gay people though that barrely anyone got upset. (Maybe some religoius people did though, not sure)

Alltså det där med att melodifestivalen aldrig tar slut är ju inte helt fel. Det fanns(rip) en amerikansk komiker som hete Trevor Moore som gjorde en liknande sång som heter "Gays Got Married". Han har en massa roliga och även bra musikaliska sånger här på YT. Han fick mig att börja lyssna på country.
I’d also like to point out that the melody is not “Bare Necessities”, although I understand where you’re coming from. It’s composed by Swedish songwriter Andreas Alfredsson Grube! :-)
New time watcher but been binging your reactions to swedish music as well as really enjoying your standup! When it comes to comedy videos like this id love it if i heard more of your translations of the jokes and where you see the comedy. I think that would be super interesting! Also check out Grotesco The Trial.... its 13 min long and i need your reaction to it.
Not Galenskaparna, Grotesco. I think the confusion may be because this IS kind of just a rework of a Galenskaparna styled skit.. The skit is rather a way to look at self-righteous religious people who think they are perfect and think that everything that is amiss in the world is because of the people who.. aren't them.. Grotesco's song is about blaming homosexuals (I think that in Britain there were politicians who sincerely blamed the legalisation of Gay marriage as the reason for a flooding they had a short while after the law passed.. ).. Though Galenskaparna's "Himmelen har skänkt oss alibi" (From a very good movie named "Hajen som visste för mycket"), isn't trying to point fingers directly, but rather about how some people who are Christians think they are absolved from any responsibility.
@@JonathanRollinssthlm305 .. Yeah; I responded before I had looked at the entire video, but the rest of what I said still is something worth mentioning.. (I also don't remove comments I make because I have a philosophy about standing for my mistakes. This means that instead of hiding them by removing what I said, I prefer to rectify in subsequent conversations).
Well, all the members of Grotesco (especially everyone who writes their scripts and songs) are all huge fans of Galenskaparna & After Shave so I think none of them mind being mistaken for their idols. Henrik Dorsin and Per Andersson even invited Claes Eriksson on a weekend trip to London with the two of them because they wanted him to talk about humor and screenwriting (he happily went along).
I don't know if there is a version on RUclips with subtitles. I mean he's just reacting to someone else's video, but I know what you mean. I wished there was too, for the people outside of Sweden
Wait a minute! I saw you live yesterday, didn't I? As the opening act for Iliza Shlesinger's show. You were really good! How bizarre that I ended up on this video today, due to completely unrelated youtube suggestions for reaction videos 😆
Kolla även upp Henri Dorsins (han från "Solsidan") julmusik. Han gjorde en julskiva som heter "Finns här några snälla barn" tillsammans med Gävles Symfoniorkester. Dorsin och symfoniorkestern gjorde sedan en stor julkonsert i "Gävle Konserthus" 2014 (Dorsin var SVTs julvärd samma år) som sändes i tv och gick under namnet "Medan jukbocken brinner" (alla låtar från konserten finns här på RUclips), Några av låtarna är: "Tomten är en kommunist" "Krampus" "En vit jul" Julhälsning från Caymanöarna"
Middle class guy here. And yes. It might happen, every now and then, when something goes wrong, someone says: "Obviously it's the gays fault.". :) And also.. The priest fondling the little kid... Creepy as f. If someone got offended I suspect it was the religious people. But I don't think they could really complain, that would have opened up a can of worms they rather had kept shut...
Du borde verkligen reagera på mer grejer av Grotesco, t ex; "Ett kg mjöl" "Sossezombies" "Arbetarfiket" "Runka bulle" "Bestefar og jeg" "Tingeling" "Danmark" "Jul på pizzerian"
And now (if you've not done it yet) Göteborg är staden på G (They dig a tunnel from Stockholm to Gothenburg in the 1940's) And Runka bulle (Soggy biscuit). Both by Grotesco.
Warphole to 1970's Gbg!!!!! De driver ju med stilen Sten-Åke Cederhök, Sonya Hedenbratt m.fl. från den tidens tv-underhållning. Deras "Hurra i Haga" syftar på verklighetens program "Jubel i busken".
As a member of the bögarna, I fvcking forbid anyone to be offended on my account. Because I seriously don't believe any sane gay person would ever be offended after watching this. It's already sad (and pathetic) enough that such a skit would be absolutely demolished in its infancy if it were to come out today, let's at least enjoy the spicier humor of the past. I mean it's not even directed towards gay people, people who feel it's offensive should seriously go outside and touch grass.
Great comment. As a straight man who loves this song, I've always from the first second watching it, understood that this is a totally obvious satire that makes fun of various religions (among other institutions) and their history of homophobia. And even more than that in the end, and that's why this classic satire was so ahead of its time, and has gained recognizion through the years. I'm also glad to read online that people apparently sing this song at the Pride parades over here. Those people get it, and the Grotesco crew would be proud of that. And if that message isn't clear for those who don't "get the satire": I promise you - Swedish Television would never ever air something that would felt in anyway "hateful" to the LGBT+ community back then (or even more now). That's so bloody obvious, isn't it?
Did you watch this with the swedish subtitles i have to ask?? Otherwise there no point. Its the text thats important here!! 😀 because this is made to be funny rather than musical first of all
This is by Grotesco and not Galenskaparna. :) Thay played this on "Allsång på Skansen" (Sing-along-show) during pride and the only ones who got offended was not part of the lgbty+ "group"
Nah, I actually think there are even more spaces for people to enjoy what they like. It's just popular right now for people to complain about this boogie man of woke culture that doesn't really exist. More people aren't offended, just more people have platforms.
.... his Swedish pronunciation is actually..... excellent. It's not Galenskaparna, they're also great, but this group is Grotesco.... and you corrected yourself. Should finish watching ;).
You didnt get the subtitles, so I cant give you a thumbs up - you only reacted to a catchy, typical Free Church Song without hearing the words they sung... Weeeeeell, I guess you know the title and liked it - Blame it on the Gays... and just liked the song when you knew the title! Love from Sweden 💖
@@seandipaul8257 I guess masturbating to any gender or sexes on the internet would also qualify you for being pan or bi. But now since you asked, idk. May be some other criteria. Now, get me right here, i'm just happy that i'm only half gay. Thus everything is only half my fault, and i'm pretty sure black ppl are responsible for the other 50%. Well, it's the 2020's and so maybe gays, blacks and muslims can share 30/30/30. Maybe the remaining 10% are the jews fault. As a bi person, i am taking no part in this bullshit. Clearly we are not to blame, and we deserve a vacation to Greece for at least 4 or 5 weeks, and y'all can bash all them full gay ppl doing semester on Öland Just sayin.p
You should check out Eddie Meduza a swedish singer. He sing about Almost everything. From sex to cars. Im my opinion. The best singer in Sweden history.
Swedes weren't offended by this because we usually didn't get offended in general (now Swedes are almost like Americans) and we're not religious almost at all and that is who they mock. 3:35 Hahaha, seems you didn't get any of the Gothenburg style humor of wordplay there.
No no - swedes are a very offended people, and this song was very controversial since it was considered homophobic by many, which is dumb since it obviously makes fun of religious fundamentalists!
@@Nekotaku_TV I understand, but my point was that the offendedness is not exactly new and that the song was controversial even at its release. When they performed it at “Allsång på Skansen”, it was reported for hets mot folkgrupp, and became a case for the justitiekansler!
@@Nerkin610 Well how long after was it at Skansen? But yeah it's dumb either way. I just don't remember anything when it aired but now I know Swedes have changed and are easily offended when we used to be famous for not being offended. Sad.
@@Nekotaku_TV 2011, the song first aired in 2010 so not long after. But yeah, I would agree that we’re going more and more towards the American snowflake scene, which is definitely sad!

I dont think this has so much to do with gays but more about mocking of Siewert Öholm and christian religion. Anyway it's a gem.
This is by Grotesco and not Galenskaparna. :) Thay played this on "Allsång på Skansen" (Sing-along-show) during pride and the only ones who got offended was not part of the lgbty+ "group"
Thanks!
Yep, Swedish humor used to, doesn't work today when you're so easily offended..haha
Nah, I actually think there are even more spaces for people to enjoy what they like. It's just popular right now for people to complain about this boogie man of woke culture that doesn't really exist. More people aren't offended, just more people have platforms.
.... his Swedish pronunciation is actually..... excellent.
It's not Galenskaparna, they're also great, but this group is Grotesco.... and you corrected yourself. Should finish watching ;).
Du uttalar svenska ord sjukt bra!
Thanks!
Rolling with Rollins
Would be fun to react to a movie called "tomten är far till alla barnen" (In Bed with Santa)
Kenta kofot - Kom Igen
Nice swedish pronunciation
Thanks!
I'ts a banger!
Hahaha
Jag tror att detta också var en mellanakt i melodifestivalen 😂
I had forgot this one aswell... everything is the gay guys fault... lol.... it´s such a fun satire honestly....
Som också Amerikansk har jag hört låten aldrig. En gång hörde jag låten aldrig två gånger.
Kolla in Ola Aurell, han har gjort många roliga låtar, eller ialla hans låtar är roliga och fyndiga!
HAHAAHA cool cool cool.. swedish OG.
I don't even think the Bögars in Sweden see this as anything other than a big joke They see the parody I don't think anyone is mad at being gay
Detta är ju så svenskt som svenskt 🤫🤫🤯🤯
Agreed!
MItt förslag: Hoppa över "Skitgubbar" och kör "Ola skulle pissa - då kom björnen (Bear attack in Sweden)" istället.
I second that.
Mycket bättre förslag
I wish I would have seen this earlier! I have already recorded the Skitgubbar reaction, but I'll check out your suggestion.
The fun is that it is joking with homophobic people
That's how I understood it
Galenskaparna - TrögFattarFöreningen
This is obviously not making fun of gay people, but rather making fun of people blaming gay people for the worlds problems.
Thank you! finally someone who gets it, so many people thinks it is a controversial homophobic song.
I understood that
"De e najs"
Motorentusiast kan inte sluta säga ordet "Najs"

You didnt get the subtitles, so I cant give you a thumbs up - you only reacted to a catchy, typical Free Church Song without hearing the words they sung...
Weeeeeell, I guess you know the title and liked it - Blame it on the Gays... and just liked the song when you knew the title!
Love from Sweden 💖
Why'd you google translate the title? Could have just asked me to translate it for you with proper grammar.
*En Amerikan reacts to svenska klassiker
Everything I did with the title of this video was done purposely with the grammar of both English and Swedish in mind. But thanks for your input.
Feeling happy that i'm bi. At least it's not all my fault.
are you even bi if you've not gotten down and dirty with both sexes
I think i knew that, way before i had sex with anyone tbh. @@seandipaul8257
@@seandipaul8257 I guess masturbating to any gender or sexes on the internet would also qualify you for being pan or bi. But now since you asked, idk. May be some other criteria. Now, get me right here, i'm just happy that i'm only half gay. Thus everything is only half my fault, and i'm pretty sure black ppl are responsible for the other 50%.
Well, it's the 2020's and so maybe gays, blacks and muslims can share 30/30/30. Maybe the remaining 10% are the jews fault. As a bi person, i am taking no part in this bullshit. Clearly we are not to blame, and we deserve a vacation to Greece for at least 4 or 5 weeks, and y'all can bash all them full gay ppl doing semester on Öland
Just sayin.p
Interestingly it wasn't gay people that got offended the most by this, but rather Christians.
You should check out Eddie Meduza a swedish singer.
He sing about Almost everything. From sex to cars.
Im my opinion. The best singer in Sweden history.
-"Mera brännvin" "Volvo" "Fånga kräftor lägga i en balja"🤣 ja fan det var tider det😄
Den runkande spårvagnschauffören is a song i love 🥰
"Are you aware that because of you the humanity is failing to reproduce?"
"Well, isn't that the fault of the gays?"
So now you have to react to Tingeling (middle act from Mello).
This is not made by Galenskaparna. This is made by Grotesco. It is a totally different group.
I know. I correct myself in the video. It hurts that you skipped that part :(
Swedes weren't offended by this because we usually didn't get offended in general (now Swedes are almost like Americans) and we're not religious almost at all and that is who they mock.
3:35 Hahaha, seems you didn't get any of the Gothenburg style humor of wordplay there.
No no - swedes are a very offended people, and this song was very controversial since it was considered homophobic by many, which is dumb since it obviously makes fun of religious fundamentalists!
@@Nerkin610 Na, heard nothing of it. But I did say that NOW it's different but this skit is a bit old.
@@Nekotaku_TV I understand, but my point was that the offendedness is not exactly new and that the song was controversial even at its release. When they performed it at “Allsång på Skansen”, it was reported for hets mot folkgrupp, and became a case for the justitiekansler!
@@Nerkin610 Well how long after was it at Skansen? But yeah it's dumb either way. I just don't remember anything when it aired but now I know Swedes have changed and are easily offended when we used to be famous for not being offended. Sad.
@@Nekotaku_TV 2011, the song first aired in 2010 so not long after. But yeah, I would agree that we’re going more and more towards the American snowflake scene, which is definitely sad!
