Yep

When I learn this…I’m crazy

Its fun tho-

Yes I agree. When I was little, I used to sing the rhyme "London bridge is falling down" and I never wished to visit London.

yes the sad story about fishes being chased by angry family of sharks, quite deppressing.

Literally? As opposed to figuratively?

Yup and reminds me of those Disney stories which makes tragic and sad stories all happy and fantasy like...

Yes

Lol why do these even get sung to little kids

it probably does

WHAT IF IT DOES?

It's my favorite 😍, too ❤️!

"Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" is the exact same tune as "Baa Baa Black Sheep" which in turn is the same tune as "The Alphabet Song".

@@SWLinPHX which one came first?

I never understood why the cheese had to stay alone when I said it out loud, but then again I didn't question it since other Nursery Rhymes didn't make sense either. Like Mary Had a Little Lamb, Ba Ba Black Sheep, and Jack Be Nimble.

This is certainly interesting

what is the story of that one

I only remember 5 monkeys

It’s 5 not ten

Don't worry, it's not dark at all. The plague connection is completely false. “Ring Around the Rosie” did not occur until the publication of Kate Greenaway’s Mother Goose or The Old Nursery Rhymes in 1881. For the “plague” explanation of “Ring Around the Rosie” to be true, we have to believe that children were reciting this nursery rhyme continuously for over five centuries, yet not one person in that five hundred year span found it popular enough to merit writing it down.

I wouldn't say I expected a dark story to be behind it, but the ashes, ashes part wouldn't really make sense. Like, where are the ashes? And why are there ashes?

I remember playing it in pre-K Then I was playing it one day with my cousins and my dad said not to play that game...

i have learn [ring around a rosie] and [london bringe go's falling down] and......my childhood has been ruined EDIT;sorry if is bad spelling

oh s**t

The history of it is dark but it's pretty cool that you shared it

How depressing...

Growing up, it was always ‘a-tissue’ . I don’t think ashes works.

In another story it was "achoo achoo we all fall down" A different disease where there was sneezing. The truth is, these thing kept being altered to suit whatever lore people want

@@theywalkinguptoyouand4060 Yeah I think there’s several versions of this one. A tissue is the original but other words like ashes or a-choo can work.

@@clipscompilations4442 Yeah I’ve heard a couple of versions but a-tissue always fits the rhythm best and makes the most sense

Miss Rhona has brought us down away away away!

There was a 1st one earlier

Mary had a little lamb, Sh-Sh Bam! No more lamb! Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was red as blood! At school everyone sang that

Well thast s great.......

From personal interpretations, Mary might refer to the virgin Mary as Jesus is often referred to as God's lamb. I don't know if Rome could be classified as a school but it's a bit of a stretch.

That sounds like a prediction of covid-19

Same for me, but with my big brother

maybe we should begin to talk about the white house and show a picture of the pentagon

I commented about this before I saw your comment. I had always assumed tower bridge was London bridge until I actually visited. Tower bridge is the most famous and unique bridge in London which is where I think the confusion comes from. It doesn't help that London bridge is so non-descript with the sign depicting its name the only unique feature.

when I visited London I was incredibly underwhelmed by the London Bridge, then I saw the Tower Bridge. 0-0

@@flynn4838 It's depending on the country, some use 'atissue atissue' (mine uses that one), some use "ashes ashes" and other use "achoo achoo!"

YEESH dis is so true

same

Actually... Dark as they may be, there is always a lesson to be learned in these old nursery rhymes. That was their exact purpose. Nowadays, we shield our kids from any of the harsh realities of life. They grow up not understanding those harsh realities until they are young adults who were overly sheltered by their parents and teachers and are now incapable of handling them, and so we end up with what we have now: A bunch of weak people who get "triggered" and need to retreat to their "safe spaces" and think that speech and violence are somehow the same thing. We were a lot tougher and better off as a species when these nursery rhymes were still commonplace. They were an intentionally subtle and delicate Darwinian way of making sure the new generation was fit enough to survive for future generations at the top of the food chain where we evolutionarily belong and fought very hard against great odds for many millennia to achieve.
