Aye, lass, it is indeed a grand tune! I also like "One Day" from the same soundtrack...that's me own personal favorite. :ph34r:

Oddly enough, this song was easier to memorize than any other.

I've the lyrics and constantly find myself singing it now and then.

So, anyone who sees me at some event... don't be surprised if you might hear me sing "Hoist The Colours".

Aye, people do love it.

It was requested this past weekend at the Whale and Ale sing along down in San Pedro and our little troupe, Port of New Providence, has a very good rendition.... :ph34r:

Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!

Yeah, it's one of those songs that stays inside your head, that's for sure. Right up there with Sams Gone Away, and, And We'll Roll. Listen to any of those just once, and you'll be singing or humming them for days and days. :lol:

...schooners, islands, and maroons

and buccaneers and buried gold...

You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you. But if you're a good navigator, a least you'll know where you were when you died.......From The Ship Killer by Justin Scott.
