I say it proudly and without the slightest shame. I LOVE Spongebob Squarepants. It is one of the few true delights in this world. And with all the terrific traditional music in the show my greatest goal as a tin whistler has been to learn the various polkas and hornpipes from the show. Big problem, though. I had no idea what most of the songs were or how to find full recordings of them until now! I’m still working on identifying half of them so I thought I might draw from the sea of knowledge here.
thesession has that as a reel or a strathspey, but he seems to be playing it as a hornpipe…
i have lernt his version because i like it. - some one should put this version up on the session as ‘the spongebob’
I shall show this thread to my flatate who is a massive spongebob fan and is learning the fiddle, sould count as a christmas present
Awesome! I’m glad your mate approves. I’d be practicing for my own Spongebob session if 20-something ITM musicians were more common in my corner of New England. Maybe I’ll hop the pond and join you in Leeds.
Spongebob is my hero and taught me everything I know about trad music and life. He is a tremendous nose-flute player. I even composed a tune in his honor called “Spongebob’s reel” which, if I ever remember it, I may record someday.
