  • Hello everyone! This week I sang The Wellerman (the sea shanty) by The Longest Johns and like 800 other people!
    Ask and you shall receive.
    I know I say this all the time but I think I really mean it when I say this is the hardest I’ve worked on a cover ever. Every noise and BG vocal was made completely from scratch, either by the BG vocalists, me, my brother or Jeysun (and his uncle). I did not know true fear until I was pouring water from glass to glass in front of my microphone and laptop.
    The BG vocals alone played such a huge part in this cover and I’d like to take a moment to thank everyone who said yes to my pleading! I’m so sad that I didn’t get to use all the adlibs and alternate speaking parts everyone recorded because they had me in complete stitches. The cover would be nothing without your drunken singing, so truly, thank you!
    And finally, a huge, massive thank you to Jeysun for going absolutely above and beyond with this instrumental. I am so over the moon with how everything turned out and I’m so sorry that you broke your mug while recording the foley (also that you bit into an onion not only once, but twice but I refuse to take any blame or involvement in that choice). You’re a real pal, thank you so much!
    As always, thank you for your continued support! It really does mean the world to me. Hope you all have a fantastic evening and I’ll see you next Saturday.

    (you can listen to this bad boy on the go too: bit.ly/TWMAnna)

    When you listen to the lyrics, you find the song is about a whaling vessel whose captain has sighted a HUGE whale and harpooned it... but has no feasible way to haul it up and kill it because his ship is too small to haul it in close for a shipside kill and he lost his boats in the first attempt at a boating kill.
    But out of stubborn pride, he refuses to cut the whale loose because not only would it by a huge amount of money, bringing down a whale that big would be a huge feather in his cap.
    Meanwhile, the whale is just dragging the ship randomly around the ocean because he won't cut it loose and can't haul it in (if he tried, he would be hauling his ship under the water after the whale) because it's too small, and his crew are getting angry, hoping the Wellerman (slang term for a resupply vessel from the Weller whale oil company) comes and finds them to bring them their bonus pay (sugar tea and rum) and fresh supplies before they starve. All they can do is that and pray either the captain comes to his damned senses or the whale never decides to take a deep dive and drag the whole ship under... since they have no boats there would be no abandoning ship, they would all just drown.
    They've also decided that, should they actually get the damn whale in the end, once the tonguing (cutting the meat into strips and packing it up to deliver for whale oil processing) is done and they've put to port to drop off their kill, screw this prideful idiot, they quit, he can find another crew whose lives he can risk over vanity.

      Either interpretation works, honestly. A whale dragging around a ghost ship of dead whalers is as good a tale as any.

    Soon may the Wellerman come
    To bring us sugar and tea and rum
    One day, when the tonguing is done
    We'll take our leave and go
    She'd not been two weeks from shore
    When down on her a right whale bore
    The captain called all hands and swore
    He'd take that whale in tow (huh)

    To bring us sugar and tea and rum

    The whale's tail came up and caught her
    All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
    When she dived down low (huh)
    Soon may the Wellerman come
    To bring us sugar and tea and rum
    One day, when the tonguing is done
    We'll take our leave and go
    No line was cut, no whale was freed
    The captain's mind was not of greed
    And he belonged to the Whaleman's creed
    She took that ship in tow (huh)
    Soon may the Wellerman come
    To bring us sugar and tea and rum
    One day, when the tonguing is done

    Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
    Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
    For forty days or even more
    The line went slack then tight once more
    All boats were lost, there were only four
    But still that whale did go (huh)
    Soon may the Wellerman come
    To bring us sugar and tea and rum
    One day, when the tonguing is done
    We'll take our leave and go
    As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
    The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone
    The Wellerman makes his regular call
    To encourage the captain, crew and all (huh)
    Soon may the Wellerman come
    To bring us sugar and tea and rum
    One day, when the tonguing is done
    We'll take our leave and go
    Soon may the Wellerman come
    To bring us sugar and tea and rum

      @@a_viewer5386 Y does that matter. Their can still be an animation for it. And as someone else said context can be changed through animation. Like have u ever seen a music video where the video has not much to do with the actual song? Sam Hunt’s take your time is a good example of that. It doesn’t always have to be exactly like what the song is about (and sometimes it makes it better like with the Sam hunt video). Context can be very easily changed and not just through animation. Anna singing hellfire makes it have completely different context with a female singing it.

    Imagine you’re the younger sister of a sailor. He always used to sing you this song when you were little, and you still remember it. He died at sea when you were only six years old. Twenty years later, you’re at a bar and you start singing the song. The entire bar stops to listen and eventually join in. And little do you know your brother is singing with you.
    Edit: I’ve seen a lot of people asking to write stories about this, and you’re all perfectly welcome to!

      Then you notice an older pirate wiping something off his cheek, you wonder if he's annoyed, & you go check him out. He says he just got emotional... You raise an eyebrow & he whispers a young pirate used to sing this like a prayer everytime things got really dangerous. You ask for the name... He knows you know, you seem emotional & your voice cracked a bit; he says "he died with this in his lips. He was a brave man" -& you just know he won't say more. He smiles & orders for more rum. You say it's on the house, ask if he's still working with that ship; he says he never abandons old pals & you're now suggesting you can be the most congenial addition to the crew. You see his imperceptible smirk & go get his order. Now you know. That's your calling. Time for his lullaby to become your prayer.

    Just came across this song, your version was the first. Nothing comes even close imo, your richness in your voice, the vibrato, the dynamics between forte and piano, the quality etc is just perfect. Only thing that I've maybe heard better in some videos is maybe the backing on chorus (but that requires many people), but you're the only one that could've sung this solo on the verses without any backing or harmonies. Actually one of the few videos I just have to leave a comment. Thank you for this, definitely subbed :)
