Seems to me that the opening is a direct quote of the song "One Tin Soldier." Not worth noting? <small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:Contributions/158.57.150.68|158.57.150.68]] ([[User talk:158.57.150.68|talk]]) 10:30, October 25, 2017</small><!-- {{subst:unsignedIP}} -->

:It is very similar, and even the overall melody has a resemblance to that {{wp|One Tin Soldier|late-'60s/early-'70s protest song}}. I've asked Flans on Tumblr if there is any connection, but you never know if he'll actually confirm the connection or even respond.

:Update--Holy cow, Flans answered me directly! Looks like it didn't post to the general TMBGareOK Tumblr account, so [http://imgur.com/a/EgNbn here] is his response: "We certainly know the song, but never considered any big parallels.

Now that I'm a Dad I'm probably listening to the kids stuff the most! Pirate Girls 9 is pretty darn good in my opinion. I've talked about Flans feminism before, but here it's great, because my daughter can be a pirate. Great lyrics and melody. It really stands up to repeat listens. One of the best songs they've done in this genre! (Mr Tuck)
