Even before PinkFong released their version of “Baby Sharkâ€, the concept of Baby Shark had star potential. The German version is titled “Kleiner Haiâ€. It was performed by an artist named Alexandra Müller. The original music video is Jaws-themed and is about a baby shark who ate a swimmer when he grew up. Record label EMI published this song in May 2008. This single reached #25 on German charts and #21 on Austrian charts. The song was so popular that the YouTube community created a music video for the single. “Kleiner Hai†is still popular in German youth groups, which foreshadowed “Baby Shark’s†worldwide significance 10 years later.
