Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
No, you didn't miss it!. The sea shanty you're referring to is the Fantasia on British Sea Songs by Sir Henry Wood!. This year they played Vaughan Williams' Sea Songs instead as (I think) it was 100 years since his death!.

I'm seriously hoping they bring back Sir Henry's Sea Songs next year, it wasn't the same without them!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
