Baby Shark Hits 17 Billion Views
The song "Baby Shark" is not just a children's song; it has become a global phenomenon, achieving record-breaking numbers on YouTube with over 17.2 billion views and an average of 4.7 million views per day. Its popularity is attributed to its appeal to young minds, relying on fast, fun music and repetitive lyrics that stimulate the brain and stick in the mind like an earworm. Despite its huge commercial success, legal disputes have erupted among the composers over the rights to the melody. A lawsuit was filed against the Korean company Pinkfong, accusing it of stealing the melody. However, in 2025, the court in South Korea dismissed the case, affirming that the melody is legal and considered part of folkloric heritage.
