Moby Dick is my favorite novel--has been for the last 30 years. This song you've written is pitch perfect for that masterwork. A dread sense of fate hangs over every verse, mixed with Stubb's humorous/heroic acceptance. It's a cannibal universe, mate! I'm going to steal your song. Cheers. Wonderful job.
I'm having an adult Pirate Party this month and was searching pirate music and found your video.That song is better than some of the vintage songs! You got real talent!Thanks for posting it!!!
Well done! I was wondering... could you possibly send me the lyrics to your song? I teach 10 graders in Ohio and am about to start them on Moby Dick and I would like to play your song with a handout with the words. Would that be okay?
You are brilliant, I've faved this. I recommend reading about the Essex disaster (what Moby Dick is based on, although I never read Moby Dick or saw the movie). The book In the Heart of the Sea: The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex by Nathaniel Philbrick. It's a page turner.
Moby Dick is one of my Top 3 Books of all time. It's ironic that MD almost destroyed Melville as a writer and now it's a Classic. How are you related to H Melville? Do you have any Melvillian stuff?? Autographs, personal library books?
Thanks UpperCanuck. I didn't realize until today that I could reply. Shows you how observant I am. haha. Could you check out my first youtube post called "My Prayers will go under". It's the one I'm the happiest with right now. It's dedicated to three fisherman from Yarmouth, NS and Stan Rogers.
I just had to bookmark your song, so I can find it again. I really liked it. Fred Jack, Former Great Lakes fisherman.
