Scientists in the UK are setting up to play Christmas pop tunes at sharks to see if they respond to them. It would seem that fish in general recognize melody, so this would seem a sort of "spaghetti against the wall" experiment just to see what sharks will think of the music.
The more important question (for me at least) is "Will the sharks spontaneously commit suicide after the second or third time hearing The Carpenters Christmas Album"
