Video and Lyrics of Baby Shark

“Baby Shark” probably originated in Early Childhood Education programs. Some sources cite traditional myths as the basis, others derive it from camps in the early 20th century, and others consider it possibly developed by camp counselors inspired by the movie Jaws.

It became a campfire song where each member of a shark family is introduced with different hand motions. Also several different versions of the song have the sharks hunting fish, eating a sailor, or killing people who then go to heaven.4

Several entities have submitted original videos and sound recordings of the song under copyright, and some have had their merchandise copyrighted based on their versions; however, according to The New York Times, the song and the characters associated with the song are believed to be in the public domain.

A dance version of “Baby Shark” was popularized online in a 2007 YouTube video called “Kleiner Hai” (German for Little Shark) and posted by Alexandra Müller, also known by her stage name, Alemuel.6 This version is set to the Jaws theme and tells the story of a baby shark that grows up and eats a swimmer.

The video gained popularity shortly thereafter8 and Alemuel was offered a recording contract by the EMI label.

The video gained popularity soon after8 and Alemuel was offered a recording contract by the EMI label9. The single peaked at number 25 in the German charts and number 21 in the Austrian charts. Based on the original video, the YouTube community created a popular music video, which is a typical example of crowdsourcing.

The German version of the song remains popular among German youth groups and multiple variations (also in different dialects of German) have been released since it first gained popularity in 2007.
