    2) The ad for Hello Fresh is the best and they should buy it from you.

    Great version ;) Fun fact: This is a sea ballad from New Zealand from c. 1860-70. The song refers to the "wellermen", being the supply ships owned by the Weller brothers, who were amongst the earliest European settlers of Otago (South Island, New Zealand). The supply ships would bring the sugar, tea, rum, spirits, tobacco and clothes that made up the "wages" for the crew.

      Very cool!!! It's neat to see the origins of such a fun song.
      It has a personal place in our hearts now too... it was my father's ringtone, and he passed in April. The tenacity and adherence to a code of honor fit my father to perfection, and he absolutely loved it. I'd be sitting in the room with him and he would call me just to hear my phone ring.
      Thank you for adding that little bit of history to a song now so close to our hearts.

      @@marykay8587 Centuries old would be an overstatement, a Wellerman would be a supply ship run by the Weller brothers, who's company was founded in 1831 and became one of the larger players in whaling and trade in New Zealand, however, by 1840 the whale population in the area was in a decline, and if I recall correctly, the company would go out of business at that time.
      Which means the story the song narrates would have to be set to that rather limited time frame. The song itself is apparently thought to be from the 1860s or 70s, though.
