Assessment of suitability for parodying

General

Largely depends on how relevant boats are to your purposes.

Black Pearl crew-specific

It is about wanting to be around water, which the Crew can strongly relate to. Even the music is great for them, being an acoustic folksy track which is an unusual sound for its artist, and has some accordion, to make it sound like a sea shanty. A real winner.

Behind the scenes

This was the first song I parodied to feature instrumentation that suited old-fashioned pirates.
