After 10 years on Pitcairn only one adult male remained alive. The rest were either murdered or came to a dubious end. John Adams, in an alcohol induced coma saw a vision from God and became a religious man, leading the community into piousness. He taught them to sing the melodies from hymns and used the text from the Bounty’s Bible, the only book on the island. This piece is composed around Norfolk language samples and includes a reggae feel, which relates to the mutineer Ned Young, a West Indian by birth, a teacher and a favourite of the women. He died of an Asthmatic condition.
