  1. 📹 Damn, this song is pretty astonishing: it’s from the POV of a whale being hunted. (And yeah, the sea shanty’s had a mini-renaissance during the pandemic, which is… interesting.) tmblr.co/ZwA1ltb12ntJye00

      I'm sure there's some Red Pill morons trying to claim the sea shanty as MANLY MUSIC or something. This song puts the lie to that. The songs were often about loneliness and sorrow and keeping on anyway. That's why they hit a chord during the pandemic.

        But anyway, this song itself just grabbed me and wouldn't let go.
