When you go to Disney, the "its a small world" ride  is initially very tempting.

What I like about the Shanty is it didn't start as a collaboration. The original guy uploaded, and the nex t one went, 'hmm, I can harmonise with this', then someone decided it was missing his range, and so on.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

I am NOT clicking on any of these...It was bad enough Sean mentioning "I've got a song...."

It took me two hours to forget that...and now I've remembered it again. X_X

Wife: What is that tune you're humming?
Me: Something I heard on the web.
Wife: Why are you beating time on the counter-top?
Me: It provides a bass line in my head.
Wife: Why is your hand bleeding?
Me: I've been doing it since I got up to pee last night!
Wife: Well stop it!
Me: I will when I get to the end.
Wife: The end of What?!

Some day, when the humming is done,
I'll take my leave and go!                              :)

From Sea Shanty TikTok to a record deal

From Sea Shanty TikTok to a record deal

Scottish postie Nathan Evans has quit his job and signed to a record label after storming TikTok with sea shanties.

Nathan said the singalong craze for his The Wellerman rendition exploded in just a matter of weeks.

And Friday sees an official release of the shanty, after he was picked up by Polydor records.

The 26-year-old from Airdrie said it goes to show that if you keep going anything can happen.

Shrek was basically designed to be a big 'eff you' at Disney. They went through and found every fairy-tale character that Disney couldn't enforce copy-right over, and put them in. Then took the mick using them.

Look...I get into trouble if I get an earworm.....I get, "Will you please STOP humming that tune," from Von.
