I wrote to Lisa on Twitter praising the song and was honoured to get a personal reply! :-)
Simply one of THE most amazing tracks from a phenomenal album. More precious than gold, these emotional landscapes.
Hey, amazing that someone has created a song of the shipping forecast. Nostalgia, warm, safe, and a lovely song 🤗
excellent song. Heard this live a few years ago on BBC6 - that version was a bit faster and a bit less 'esoteric' but still hauntingly different.
Powerful and beautiful song. Lisa is such a unique artiste. Very English and gorgeous looking woman too.
If you like this, go to the BBC Radio 4 website, and listen to the programme just aired today, Thursday 23rd April, at 11.30am, called Shipping Songs, which was presented by Lisa. It should be up on the website for the next month.
Update, Friday 15th May: this programme is being repeated on Radio 4 on Sunday 17th May at 1330 - so it'll be reposted on the iPlayer for a further month.
terry platt I listened today and have posted to all friends on FB. This incantation mesmerised and soothed me as a child and still enchants me today. Though I always wonder why 'Dogger, Fisher, German Bight" are the ones which stick in the memory so strongly.
This is soooo melodious and mellifluous! The voice, the music (that autoharp has some amazing reverb and sounds like guitar harmonics pretty much) and the words which sound so much like poetry .... so original!
Beautiful. Type o' stuff 2 make an expat homesick
this is very beautiful
Seen Lisa's concert last night in Ludlow, blown away with the whole performance. She's just brilliant!
Exquisite. Both the song and Lisa.
Beautiful! An ode to a constant love of mine - Radio4.
And best of all, no radios were harmed in the making of this video (I hope she threw it back in?)
Lisa - Thank you for making this track, it's joyous!
Beautiful
Reminds me of one of my favorite songs of all time, Tears For Fears' Pharaohs
I found this looking for more shipping songs. I *guess* I got what I wanted? This is pretty, so i'm good.

I imagine ship's mates on trawlers, frantically scribbling down notes on their charts, as they are tossed around on stormy seas...
playing live in Lancaster on Saturday April 13th 2019 - www.wegottickets.com/event/462093
Is most of the language Celtic or German? Sounds like there were a few languages spoken. Can someone please enlighten me? Thank you.
It's all in english
...which is to say, a mongrel mix of Celtic, Germanic & Romance languages!

Only 33k views? What is wrong with people?
That was odd
I thought this was a song about shipping...
It is. She's literally used the BBC's daily Shipping Forecast for the lyrics. The places/zones are mentioned daily.
