The Trailer Park Boys gives us their feline-themed spin on the classically meme-worthy sea shanty, the Wellerman:

TBH I'm not a huge fan of the artfully cringe-inducing style of humour of TPB. This this little sea shanty is fun.

I wonder if there are fellow #SeaShanty lovers here on #mastodon 🤔 anyone know some? Let's connect!

Sunday afternoon #SeaShanty with Swinging the Lead (https://www.swingingthelead.com). From lockdown classic The Wellerman to a great rendition of Show of Hands’ Cousin Jack and some humorous originals - fabulous set. Def. someone to catch if they’re playing near you.

#Review: Fisherman's Friends The Musical @newwimbledontheatre ★★★★★ "It is British theatre at its best and deserves a place in the West End."

Some of you who speak French will have already guessed at the #etymology of "shanty", as in "sea shanty" (also spelled "shantey", "chanty", and "chantey"), meaning a song a sailor sings, especially in rhythm to his or her work.

It comes from French "chantez", the imperative of "chanter", meaning “to sing”, from Latin "cantāre".

Related words in English include canticle, cantor and chant.

Thinking again about how when they make a biopic about the aftermath of Jan 6th, they could do a lot worse than an opening sequence to the heavily locked down inauguration set to the TikTok'ed version of the Wellerman sea shanty.

Yesterday we had a little singalong on the Halifax reddit and I've had this song stuck in my head since.

Apparently TikTok made sea shanties a thing now. Awesome! Because I'm a sea shanty nerd, I decided to make an "explainer". If you're new to sea shanties, or just want some recs, follow the thread!

Might as well use that fancy microphone for something, and the Internet has discovered precisely one (1) #seashanty, #wellerman .

@solitaire is to blame for realizing this works.
