Contralto Elizabeth Dews (1856 - 1929) sings "Caller Herrin'" - a Scottish song by Lady Nairne; Gramophone Company Record 3641, recorded 1906, played on HMV Model 163 cabinet gramophone.
The Lyrics are:-
Wha'll buy caller herrin'?
They're bonnie fish and halesome farin';
buy my caller herrin',
New drawn frae the Forth
When ye were sleepin' on your pillows,
Dream'd ye aught o' our puir fellows,
Darkling as they fac'd the billows,
A' to fill the woven willows?
Buy my caller herrin', They're bonnie fish and halesome farin';
buy my caller herrin', New drawn frae the Forth.
When the creel o' herrin' passes,
Ladies-clad in silks and laces,
Gather in their braw pelisses,
Cast their heads and screw their faces,
Buy my caller herrin', They're bonnie fish and halesome farin';
buy my caller herrin', New drawn frae the Forth.
Neebour wives, now tent my tellin';
When the bonnie fish ye're sellin',
At ae word be in yere dealin' -
Truth will stand when a' thin's failin',
Buy my caller herrin', They're bonnie fish and halesome farin';
buy my caller herrin', New drawn frae the Forth.
Wha'll buy my caller herrin'?
They're no brought here without brave darin';
Buy my caller herrin',
Ye little ken their worth.
WhaIl buy my caller herrin'?
Oh, ye may ca' them vulgar farin'
Wives and mithers, maist despairin',
Ca' them lives o' men.
Caller=freshly caught
halesome farin'=wholesome food
creel=basket
braw pelisses=beautiful mantles
trip the spring fu' tightlie=dance the jig very neatly
tent=heed

About the Site 🌐

Origins of the Idea 🌱

The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. 🧠

Challenges Faced 🤔

Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.

Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. 🔍

Creating Truly Random Links 🛠️

The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
