A Ring Ding Ding Ding: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 09:25, 23 January 2024

A Ring Ding Ding Ding is a single by Crazy Frog, released on December 16, 2022. The song features a mashup of the vocals of "Magic Carpet Ride 07'" by "Mighty Dub Katz"^[1] (Interpolation performed with Crazy Frog Vocals), the instrumental being a version of the same song, and an interpolation of "Oh No" sound effect from Capone's Oh No^[2].

The single is the second to have been released following the hiatus after the release of Everybody Dance Now. The music video is a continuation of the events which took place in the music video of Tricky.

Music Video

Synopsis

Crazy Frog begins the music video peeking his head out of a gray background, similar to how Tricky started. He floats around aimlessly, far away from Earth, wearing his astronaut suit. Suddenly, he gets knocked into a giant space ship, revealed to be owned by Space-Y.

Inside the ship, Drones are lined up and marching in a cargo room, filled with Mega Robots, the armored ATVs from Tricky, as well as the surveillance van from Axel F. A couple Drones look at a screen, revealing a plan to travel from Earth to Mars, time to destination being 1 hour, 28 minutes. Below the cargo room, the Power Core spins away, powering the ship.

Crazy Frog climbs aboard the ship, only to be spotted by a surveillance camera. The Boss, who is assumed to be on the ship as well, clenches their fist and slams the signature red skull button, launching their attack on Crazy Frog. The Mega Robots begin to light up, and the Drones, shocked, press buttons calling to "Bring Me Every One."

As the song sings "Oh no no no no no," a group of Chrome Drones begin to march in formation toward Crazy Frog. Meanwhile, Drones manning turrets along the top of the ship begin aiming toward him. Fighter planes begin flying out of the ship as well, locking on to Crazy Frog and start shooting at him. Crazy Frog jumps up and begins flying away, evading incoming lasers shooting at him.

As they attack him, the Power Core hits its maximum load. The Boss activates a tractor beam which begins pulling Crazy Frog toward the ship, not realizing this begins to overload the Power Core. As it reaches 102% load, the tractor beam pulls Crazy Frog into the ship, but it explodes, sending him flying away from the shrapnel toward Mars.
