Is Twinkle Twinkle Little Star a rip off of the alphabet?

Okay folks, here's an interesting one for you - is our beloved lullaby "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" musically pickpocketing the alphabet song? It's an intriguing question! Now, hold your horses before we start a nursery rhyme scandal. The tune they both share actually predates them by centuries! It's a French melody called "Ah! vous dirai-je, Maman." So, neither of them are original, but they are both brilliant adaptations. So, in the most entertaining squabble of musical history, it turns out they're both guilty of a little tune theft!
