I’m a firm believer that the internet runs on россиское порнография вкtwo things: catchy beats and weird little guys. This week’s weird little guy? A French fish with arms, legs, and undeniable star power.
Le Poisson Steve, a chiptune earworm by French musician Tomo, found its way into virality through an animated clip by illustrator Vigz. The concept is delightfully minimal. Steve is a fish. He is orange. He has arms and legs. That’s the whole thing — and it works.
The language barrier doesn’t matter. Even with a handful of French, the song’s appeal cuts through. Steve’s pixelated strut and absurd confidence have already sparked a tidal wave of fan art and edits.
