No, it refers to a fist fight. Western Ocean Law was Rule with a Fist. "Blow" refers to knocking a man down with fist, belaying pin or capstan bar. Chief Mates in Western Ocean ships were known as "blowers," second mates as "strikers" and third mates as "greasers."

I've never heard the song. But I'm sure that most pirates were gay or at least bi. They were on ships for months and months at a time, and their only company was other men.

Hmmm...shall we's see: the 1st one that includes concepts is Peter Gabriel's "Salisbury Hill." there's a line in there approximately "turning water into wine," it extremely is an obtrusive connection with Jesus on the marriage in Cana. Oh, and "unusual hearth" by employing the Indigo women has a gaggle of bibical references. The call is a connection with Moses and Aaron making sacrifices to the Lord. the line, "with haughty eyes and mendacity tongues and hands that shed harmless blood" comes from the e book of Proverbs. "Cavalry" is a connection with the place Jesus replaced into crucified. the line "once you learn how to love your self, you will dissolve all the stones that are forged" is a connection with whilst Jesus reported, "enable he who's without sin forged the 1st stone." Songs do no longer impression my non secular ideals. I see them as in basic terms entertainment. even nonetheless, on condition that i'm a Christian, i think of it incredibly is cool whilst secular musicians reference the Bible of their music.

no I believe it is a reference to wind, sails. Sails were important on Pirate ships, when there was no wind there was no movement
