A popular New Zealand sea shanty called "The Wellerman" has been making the rounds online for the past couple of years. Every now and then, YouTube's algorithm puts some version of the shanty onto my recommended-viewing page. Here's an entertaining TikTok remix of the song. I despise TikTok, but I don't mind watching certain TikTok vids once they've been transferred to YouTube. And I think I need more sea shanties in my life.
Catchy tune. If not for the subtitles, I wouldn't have a clue what they were singing about, though.
