It goes even deeper - St. Thomas was inspired by Sponger Money, a Bahamian folk song! ua-cam.com/video/DArpQTrUGHg/v-deo.html The hook in all of these songs is so catchy and infectious that it's not hard to see why it keeps traveling through time :)
Damn! Thank you for your comment. I'll try and do more research in my future videos. When it comes to the melody discussed in this video, I don't see much resemblance in Sponger Money. But "The Lincolnshire Poacher", which Sponger Money was inspired by, has a similar melody 😊 ua-cam.com/video/RdPxeSECEUY/v-deo.html And I agree, it *is* quite catchy 💚
