I firmly believe the internet flourishes with two key elements: catchy melodies and eccentric little characters. The highlight of this week? A delightfully peculiar French fish with limbs and an irresistible charm.

Introducing Le Poisson Steve — a chiptune hit by French artist Tomo that has captured the internet’s attention, thanks to a playful animated video created by illustrator Vigz. The concept is wonderfully straightforward: Steve is a fish. He’s orange. He has arms and legs. That’s all — and somehow, it works perfectly.

Even if you don’t understand a single word of French, the song’s allure transcends language. Steve’s pixelated swagger and exaggerated confidence have sparked a wave of fan art, remixes, and edits all over social media.

Now, Steve the Fish has officially become part of the internet’s cherished oddities — a fresh icon in the realm of digital eccentricity. And if you’re eager for more of his aquatic adventures, there’s a full version of the track ready for streaming on Spotify.
