The “world’s longest holiday song,” no less.

In a song set to the tune of “The 12 Days of Christmas,” a choir sings about all the many products that travel through the port in a given year, such as steel and grain.

The song was posted to YouTube, and it lasts 3 hours, 28 minutes and 47 seconds.

That’s longer than Handel’s “Messiah” is known to go.

There’s no word as to whether a partridge in a pear tree passed through the port this year.
