Baby-giraffe anticipation has reached a fever pitch.
Ricky Reilly, a 30-year-old musician based in New Hampshire, recently uploaded a YouTube video serenading April, the famously pregnant giraffe — and it’s surprisingly catchy.
April’s zookeepers at Animal Adventure Park in Harpursville, NY have been live-streaming her pregnancy since February, but she still hasn’t popped.
“My fiancée had been really, really watching very adamantly and one of my friends was like, ‘write a song about the giraffe,’ ” Reilly told NH1 News on Tuesday. “I said, ‘I don’t know if I can write it quick enough,’ but then the chorus just popped right into my head in the shower. I finished the song within 15 minutes.”
Since uploading Rilley’s serenade, titled “I’m Going Crazy Waiting (For A Giraffe)” on Saturday, it has garnered more than 11,000 views. Unfortunately, it still hasn’t managed to coax out April’s baby giraffe.
