In case anyone was wondering: "Nelson's Blood" is a nickname for rum. When Admiral Horatio Nelson was killed during the Battle of Trafalgar, his body was placed in a cask of brandy for transport back to England, and the name came soon after.

[@Cybetrexs]

For context cause you left out what I’d think is an important bit, he was preserved in Brandy, the reason why it’s a nickname for rum is debated, the two main consensus being that A. People thought that rum would’ve been a more fitting alternative, or B. They mistakenly thought it was rum.

[@kenwarren9450]

@@Cybetrexs Well, honestly, if you drink enough of either you kinda stop caring about the difference.

[@Cybetrexs]

@@kenwarren9450 this is true.

Too high quality. Did not in fact sound like it was sung by a crowd of drunks outside of a bar at 3 am recorded on a video camera from 2003. 2/10

[@arcane_sigil_01]

That's what Shanties are supposed to be. They're supposed to sound like a bar full of drunks just start singing together cause they enjoy eachothers company.

[Chorus] And we'll roll the old Chariot along We'll roll the old Chariot along We'll roll the old Chariot along And we'll all hang on behind. And we'll be all right If we make it 'round the Horn We'll be all right If we make it 'round the Horn We'll be all right If we make it 'round the Horn And we'll all hang on behind. [Chorus] And we'll roll the old Chariot along We'll roll the old Chariot along We'll roll the old Chariot along And we'll all hang on behind. Well a night on the town Won't do us any harm A night on the town Won't do us any harm A night on the town Won't do us any harm And we'll all hang on behind. And we'll roll the old Chariot along We'll roll the old Chariot along We'll roll the old Chariot along And we'll all hang on behind. [Instrumental] Well a plate of Irish stew Wouldn't do us any harm Well a plate of Irish stew Wouldn't do us any harm Well a plate of Irish stew Wouldn't do us any harm And we'll all hang on behind. And we'll roll the old Chariot along We'll roll the old Chariot along We'll roll the old Chariot along And we'll all hang on behind. Well a drop of Nelson's Blood Wouldn't do us any harm Well a drop of Nelson's Blood Wouldn't do us any harm Well a drop of Nelson's Blood Wouldn't do us any harm And we'll all hang on behind.

[@chenoaholdstock3507]

Much appreciated

[@hulky7477]

Thank you so much for this😊

[@knitdesignbycaroline]

I think it's "A drop of Nelson's Bond" (like bonded whiskey). Otherwise, all looks right! Well done.

[@Zancarius]

@@knitdesignbycaroline Apparently a variant of this shanty is also known as "A Drop of Nelson's Blood" (see Wikipedia), but your reasoning is definitely spot on!

[@Zancarius]

@Lord Inquisitor Shadowlord don't remember if that's where I saw it, but I think you're right.

[@InsanityVirus]

Getting me back into my pirate phase again, and honestly, I'm all for it! XD Time to sing together as we work, everyone!

[@soundgreyhound]

This is absolutely epic. Ready to put it on repeat for the rest of the year

[@TheKadgh]

This is my favorite shanty, the first time i was in a storm at sea i hung on to the helm and bellowed this song intro the wind with my watch partner. Still one of the best expierences of my life!

It’s funny I’ve seen so many of these, but this time I just appreciated Calm’s ability to keep in time with himself. It’s pretty impressive. I have so many memory’s of frustrated piano teachers and parents trying to get me to listen to the metronome lol. I don’t know how he does it, he’s not even wearing a head phone or something, singing along/playing along is one thing, but it looks like he’s just a straight up self synchronizer boss! That’s a SSSB for those who are unfamiliar.

[@christianlingelbach5327]

The Audio and video recording are most likely separate, so in the video he just has to lipsync

[@grahamthomas9319]

[@matthewmerrill5869]

For some reason, this song gives the feeling of calling up an old museum piece warship for service once again.

[@donaldbothe3518]

The British and the Americans have some still left. The uss constitution is still seaworthy and was built in the early 1800s and saw service in the war of 1812. They take it out of port once every few months to ensure seaworthiness and to turn it the other way. The British have a 1760s warship still seaworthy as well. Then there is the valsava (maybe misspelled), the Swedish flagship from the 1600s, is still around, but it is not seaworthy at all. It never was. Sank within the first hour due to poor construction
