"Jag blir hellre jagad av vargar" transl. I'd rather be hunted down by wolves is a song written and recorded by Orup, peaking at second position at the Swedish singles chart.
The song charted for four weeks at Trackslistan between 19 September-17 October 1987, peaking at 6th position. It also charted at Svensktoppen for 11 weeks between 18 October 1987[1]-3 January 1988,[2] peaking at second position.
The song was an influence on Undertale and Deltarune. In the latter, though never stated in-game, it is the favorite song of Noelle Holiday.[citation needed]
The song's music video was parodied in an English translation of the song in 2012. The video featured a young Toby Fox, though not at the center of it. It is believed to be now lost.[citation needed]
