The quest for the origins ofEveryone Knows That begins in 2021, when an Internet user nicknamed Carl92 shares a short 17-second clip on the site WatZatSong, asking if anyone knows its origin.

For 3 years, its 47,000 members searched the Internet from top to bottom, in the hope of discovering where this heady rhythm comes from.
Many theories surfaced over the years, fueled in particular by Carl92's silence on the provenance of the extract and his sudden disinterest in the progress of the research. Thousands of people are passionate about this mystery and YouTuber Feldup also devotes a video to it. Finally, an Internet user nicknamed south_pole_ball managed to find one of the authors of the song, a certain Christopher Saint Booth, after having gone through musical databases. He thus realized that the composer had mainly worked for music broadcast in pornographic films.
