Question:

hoist the colors meaning?

found the song i was looking for.. hoist the colours.. just wondering if it was made for the movie or if it was taken from days of yore i guess lol.. if it is just made for the movie im guessin its describing calypso when they say ''took the queen from her bed and bound to her bonesif not, what is it describing

Answer:

Raise the Flag
Yes, it was made specifically for the movie. It describes how the First Brethren Court were able to bind Calypso in human form. The The rest of the song describes a pirate's life afterwards when they were able to sail freely now that the Sea Goddess no longer hindered their sailing.
Hello again! :D It was made for the movie. Here's the breakdown of it: The king and his men stole the queen from her bed - The Brethren Court captured Calypso And bound her in her bones - Binding in human form The seas be ours and by the powers Where we will, we'll roam ... Davy Jones had taught the Court to capture Calypso and imprison her forever, until the time to gather all the pieces of eight that were used (those are the items the members had) and release her.
story of how they bound calypso and sort of foreshadows the rest of the movie good luck =)
