The song comes from The Simpsons Movie from 2007, where Homer Simpson adopts a pig, dresses it like Spider-Man, and sings a cheerful parody of the classic superhero theme. In the Portuguese-language version the character is called Porco Aranha, and that dub turned the joke into a catchy earworm for Brazilian and Portuguese-speaking fans. Clips of the song later circulated on meme pages and soundboards, where its absurd premise made it easy to reuse. It endures because the reference is instantly recognisable and the tune is short, silly, and hard to forget.
