Baby Shark
I love Baby Shark. I know it's a kids song. But man that song is popular now. Is it a new song or no?

Re: Baby Shark
Nobody actually knows when the song was first made and where it came from, but it didn't really become popular until a couple of years ago, I think.

Re: Baby Shark
I don't know it's exact origins but baby shark was a popular *scrubbed* camp song back in the 90's and early 2000's.
The original one has you dying to a shark attack *scrubbed*
Baby shark -> momma shark -> daddy shark -> grandpa shark -> went swimming -> saw a shark -> swim fast -> shark attack -> lose an arm -> lose a leg -> CPR -> it's not working -> *scrubbed*Last edited by flat_footed; 2019-09-25 at 10:18 AM.

Re: Baby Shark
I ran a Lip Sync Battle program for teens at my library this past summer. I had the teens tell me what songs they were going to do ahead of time (so I could vet them for appropriateness), but I didn't have them in any particular order, just a volunteer basis of who wanted to go next.
When I hit a lull where none of the remaining teens wanted to go next, I threatened to play Baby Shark until someone got up do their song. They were horrified, and I got volunteers immediately.

Re: Baby Shark
Heh. Reminds me of being at a daytime summer camp (you get dropped off in the morning, you get picked up by your parents when they get off work) where we behaved so badly one day that the camp counselors forced us all to sit in the gymnasium and listen to Barney the Dinosaur songs for an hour until we got picked up.

Re: Baby Shark
The current version of Baby Shark that has gone viral was part of a Phone App by Pink Fong that was released probably 8 years ago, but it only got super popular recently. I had never heard of the song before seeing it on the app so I don't know if it was a standard children's song or original.
