So, how many of you were familiar with the song before?

The "Boom de ada" song that the Discovery Channel ad uses -- how many of you sang it at camp and so forth, and how many of you never heard it before the Discovery Channel or xkcd version?

I love the mountains
I love the rolling hills
I love the flowers
Especially the daffodils
I love the fireside
When all the lights are low
Boom de ada boom de ada
Boom de ada boom de ada

Put me down in the "never heard it", er, camp. :-)

I read a couple of things about the XKCD strip before saxikath mentioned the Discovery commercial, so I watched that, and THEN looked at the strip. So that was helpful. But then someone else (prior to you) pointed out the camp song, and I was truly enlightened. Still, I never remember hearing (of) it before this week.
