Thanks, I'm on it!

I was thinking about your poem ship of love and it reminds me of lyrics from maritime/sailor type songs! I'm from the maritimes so I automatically kind of sang it in my head in that style :)

Thankyou for your kind words... that's really interesting! At the time I was like, "oh I've just accidentally written a sea shanty"

Like this one!

I just find these songs instantly heartbreaking!

It must have been a very hard life being away from you loved ones for so long and also probably getting scurvy and fighting pirates. Tough life being a sailor :-/

Yeah I'll stick to singing on dry land.

Thanks for sharing that track. It inspired me to produce a warped version that reflects the extent to which we're removed from the world of the sea shanty. You can hear it on Bandcamp.
