Is it weird that I could tell what it was going to be before unmuting the video?

Little bit of Mass history
“ Medford is home to a series of sleigh races that used to occur on a street called Salem Street, and because of this event, which pretty much happened in the middle of the 19th century, these sleigh races — which you could pretty much call drag races — down this street was one of the most popular events,” said Hamill.
“Because of that, the influence and inspiration of the song, we believe came from those races.”..
“If you think about the fact that one of the great industries of Medford was rum-making, and if you really think about the lyrics of the song, with the lens that these are drag races that are happening at top speed down the centre of this street, one of the suggestions is that it’s actually a drinking song,” she said.
