Meade's and Jim's google links both gave me the same result each time I tried them. I clicked them each three times to see if anything would change.

Itsy Bitsy - About 358,000 results

Incy Wincy - About 550,000 results

188,000 RESULTS - 'incy wincy spider'

823,000 RESULTS - 'itsy bitsy spider'

Bing search.



It's going to be different every single time, and depending on the search engine, the browser you're using, etc.

Clearly both are equally well-known and utilized in the English language; Bing may be optimized for an American audience, I don't know anything about that search engine's usage statistics.

Given that all former and current members of the British Commonwealth, plus many Eurpoean and Asian countries learn British English, it stands to reason that 'incy wincy spider' is going to be more commonly used among people on the ground, even if web search results indicate a closer 'run' for usage.

"google is utter crap" 30 results...... I keep telling you people, you use ' in the wrong places. In this case you need "

Besides, even if it was 1,080,000 that would only show how much more honest Google is

:P

The true way to settle this arguement is to google "incy wincy spider porn" and "itsy bitsy spider porn"

(Incidentally my phone autocorrected "bitsy spider" to "busty spider")
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

incy = zero
itsy = 6 including a Korean bodybuilding site

Thus we conclusively prove that incy is family-friendly, pro-child and thoroughly decent, moral and worthy

Itsy is just a pervert - d'ya want to sing about perverts to ya kids, huh? Well, huh?

I've had itsy bitsy as a crossword answer (today's in fact) but never incy wincy.
