The Morning the Newspaper Advert Appeared Lyrics by Valerie Vigoda

Ernest Shackleton Loves Me (Original Cast Recording)

2018

[KAT, spoken]
I've got it! What to do next! An epic video opera installation based on the journey of...
[KAT]
The morning the newspaper advert appeared
There were thousands of sailors who all volunteered
In spite of the danger, in spite of the pay
They were drawn by the sea and the sky and the spray
And the promise, the lure of a quest all their own
The vast polar ice and the great white unknown
So Shackleton hired a crew of brave men
And they all knew they might never come home again
Oh valiant men, sail on
Sail on
Sail on
Sail on
Sail on
Hold on
But then, only 100 miles, only one day away
From the coastline they knew was so near
The temperature plummeted 40 degrees
And the men felt a bone-chilling fear
From 20 above to 20 below
In what felt like no more than a minute
The ice pack closed in, the whole ocean froze
And the ship froze in it
