[@silvyboi4150]

These songs were sung for hours and hours at a time to keep sailor's working at a steady even pace for generations so maybe it's something like how a fear of spiders was baked into us maybe since these songs were sung for so long and so often and they helped our ancestors survive it could have been baked into us

[@nmartinez18]

The first group humans where ever a part of was a tribe, the basis of all music is a beat, what is a sea shanty if not the crew's beat? What is a crew if not a tribe? I don't think anyone who is truely human will forget what it means to have a tribe.

[@PercussiveMaintenance]

The Weller Bros. was a Sydney Australia shore-whaling company that operated primarily along the southern coast of New Zealand from 1830 to 1840. Though they had numerous vessels in their employ, none appear to have been named the Billy o' Tea. Anyone under the employ of the Weller Bros. were referred to as a Wellerman, but in the specific context of the song the Wellerman takes on the meaning of a supply ship sent by the company. A Billy is slang for a makeshift kettle used for boiling water to make tea. Tonguing refers to the tonguers, the part of a shore whaling team responsible for butchering the whale after it had been caught. "tonguing" being the process of butchering the whale carcass into tongue shaped strips which consisted of the skin, flesh and blubber. And these "tongues" were boiled in huge pots to extract oil from whale blubber/fat since you can't fit an entire whale in a boiling pot!! One piece of information that I couldn't find was how to stop listening to this on loop. Also, if y'all got hyped about whaling, do watch the movie, "In the Heart of the Sea". (Not related to Wellermen though)

[@YoroMiRo]

I had wondered about the meaning, thank you for sharing!

[@TsaDude]

It's the message of the song that penetrates through the music for me. It's about whaling in the 1800s and follows a very real organization that dominated trade in New Zealand. Thinking of it with that context grounds the music as something that some sailors just kinda made up to pass the time and somehow it got to us, like a direct connection to the past. The phrase "soon may the wellerman come" brings bittersweet emotions from me knowing that the wellerman shall never again come.

For people who do not understand, this song is about whaling, and the ship the Wellerman. the Wellerman was a supply ship, that went across the oceans selling supplies to ships. It was owned by Two brothers that had immigrated from New Zealand. They started this in 1833. They did this because whaling was a popular job. While whaling you were also out from sea for a long period of time. therefore, they needed provisions.

I'm not the first one to say this, not by far: Sailors were stuck at sea for months at a time, sea shanties were made to boost crew morale and spirits. The reason why it's popping back up I'd because we are almost in the same boat, no pun intended. Instead of being stuck on a boat we are all stick inside. Sea shanties the way of the future.

[@dysmissme7343]

I strongly agree and love this direction for us 💪 Let’s hope it stays strong

[@alangale5666]

Shanties were primarily working songs at first, the term Shanty was believed to have derived from the word Chanty, a chant to keep the crew in time when hauling ropes or turning the Capstain etc. later came the forecastle Ballads sung by the crew when off duty , these were also sung in the pubs when ashore where they were also combined with the bar room ballads. The army also had their own similar songs, as did the miners etc. They became very Popular songs at the time. So you see, "Pop" songs are nothing new.
