About
Dream English ABC Song refers to a version of the "ABC Song" created by artist Dream English that also follows the melody of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" but differs rhythmically from a more well-known version. In the traditional version, the letters "L-M-N-O-P" are sung rapidly, whereas the Dream English version stretches them out over several notes, which changes the placement of the rest of the letters in the song. When a Twitter user posted Dream English's version, the clip went viral as people were astounded and jokingly against the alteration.
Origin
"Dream English" is the name of a musical and educational project by a man identifying as "Matt" which teaches children english letters and phrases.[1] On April 23rd, 2012, the Dream English Kids YouTube channel uploaded a version of the "ABC song" which alters the rhythm of the letters so that "L-M-N-O-P" are sung more slowly. The video has gained over 6.2 million views in seven years (shown below).
