Crazy Frog
Crazy Frog (originally known as The Annoying Thing) is a Swedish CGI-animated character and Eurodance musician created in 2003 by actor and playwright Erik Wernquist.

The subsequent album '' Crazy Frog Presents Crazy Hits'' and second single "Popcorn" also enjoyed worldwide chart success, and a second album entitled '' Crazy Frog Presents More Crazy Hits'' was released in 2006, as well as a third album, '' Everybody Dance Now'', released in 2009. The Crazy Frog also spawned many singles, a range of merchandise and toys, as well as two video games before going on hiatus ...
