Description:
All men had feets is a folk tune from Trondheim, transcribed around 1850 by L. M. Lindeman. In more recent times, the song has been popularized by artists such as Alf Cranner. The lyrics are both macabre and playful: "All men had feet, my man had none." The melody has inspired well-known composers, including Edvard Grieg, to create their own variations.
