Love the video!! I've apparently spent to much time on the Elissa here in the States as I recognized that as a Tall Ship before I read the full title of the video. Keep up the beautiful music gentlemen!
Hm, I always thought it was "We'll rant and we'll roar like True Newfoundlanders." Tells you where I was raised. I hope you've been over singing and sharing with the singers of Cape Breton and Newfoundland. Especially Newfoundland. If not, I reckon you'd like it. I am also wondering if it's supposed to be Baccaro -- pronounced like the Basques pronounce "baccalao," (because they were coming over getting the salt cod for a thousand years without telling anyone they were getting it from Canada, so they could keep their market monopoly) or as we Baccaronians say, "Backarow". I have never heard of a Backaloo in Nova Scotia. Where is Backaloo? (look up Baccaro lighthouse, I'm sure there are some Nova Scotians pronouncing it on RUclips). Would love the answers to those two questions. Anyway thank you for sharing the wonderful music.
The song I sing is Talcahuano girlsfrom the collection of A L Lloyd. It is a whaling song from the southern hemisphere, hence Talcahuano and Tombay. I'm sure other adaptations of the song were used to suit the geographical location where you were based. The original song to that tune is "Farewelll and Adiu to you Spanish Ladies". I don't know the origin of the name Backaloo , so I can't help with that one I'm afraid.your theory could well be correct. Cheers John Kimber's men
Newfoundland roar is an offshoot of Spanish Ladies. We'll rant and we'll roar like true British sailors, we'll rant and we'll roar, along the salt seas. From Ushant to Scilly, etc.
Glad to see you guys back!
AHOY MATES, from the northwest corner of Oregon, United States!! It's great to see y'all doing so well!
