Couple points: 1) Malinda is never early or late. She arrives precisely when she means to. 2) The ad for Hello Fresh is the best and they should buy it from you. 3 The hair is on fire 🔥.
@@bobclarke4770 I’ve just recently got into LOTR and I remember that line from the movie. I got some reason never got into LOTR as a kid, but better late than never I suppose. Amazing series
I said to myself "I'm not going to watch the ad, ads are lame." Then I heard the song and promptly watched the whole thing. Well done to Malinda for making the most interesting meal prep ad I've ever seen :)
3years in a row both songs i know by heart and sing when want to cheer up myself as the dance during add part is bringing me light and smile everytime like the first time
Try Voiceplay's and Home Free's shantys, you will love those too, I predict. Voiceplay does a medley, and Wellerman specifically. They have a bass to die for.
It's nice to finally see passion, and joy put into music! Anyone can see your love of music and creating these videos! Thank you for every one you create, past, present, and future!
I could see this as a commercial for HelloFresh. . .and nearly everyone who sees the commercial will be singing it as the tune is one that gets stuck in one's head! ❤❤👍👍
I would prefer this song on the HelloFresh commercials here instead of the current annoying jingle that gets stuck in my head... Like I haven't seen the ad in months and I already have it stuck in my head 😒😂
I'M GOING ON TOUR, MY FRIENDS!! Come check us out for some amazing folk music in April :D www.shopmalinda.com/liveshows Also you can download this track from my Patreon :) thanks for watching!! Xx
so lil story,,my whole family are morris dancers and we go to folk festivals every year. Obviously for the last 2 years we havent been able to and its broken me because listening to folk music is what keeps me going. So when i say thank you for posting this i really mean it so much because i feel at home
Hello Malinda! In Language Arts class on Thursday/Friday, we learned about puns. My teacher normally shows us videos about what we are learning about to help us remember and she showed us your pun video.
@@carterwilliamson6263 I don't know what it's like in you guys' countries, but here in Germany it's kinda impossible to not learn about this song because it's literally everywhere. Even the radio channels are blasting this song every day at least five times. They can't agree with each other on which version to play tho, the actual sea shanty cover or the famous remix. xD
Welcome to the song then! There are other Wellerman versions that are also great, and if you want to get more in the genre I recommend searching "Assassins Creed Sea Shanties."
I know what you meant, but "annunciation" is when Gabriel told Mary that she was to conceive and become mother to Jesus Christ. And, to be fair, I think Malinda would do a great job of that as well.
Malinda, your beauty, joy and talent come through every nuance of everything you do. What an amazing young lady you are. You deserve limitless success for who and what you are and what you bring to a world so much in need of happiness. Love everything about you.
Great version ;) Fun fact: This is a sea ballad from New Zealand from c. 1860-70. The song refers to the "wellermen", being the supply ships owned by the Weller brothers, who were amongst the earliest European settlers of Otago (South Island, New Zealand). The supply ships would bring the sugar, tea, rum, spirits, tobacco and clothes that made up the "wages" for the crew. Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellerman
Very cool!!! It's neat to see the origins of such a fun song. It has a personal place in our hearts now too... it was my father's ringtone, and he passed in April. The tenacity and adherence to a code of honor fit my father to perfection, and he absolutely loved it. I'd be sitting in the room with him and he would call me just to hear my phone ring. Thank you for adding that little bit of history to a song now so close to our hearts.
Loving how you took this toward irisj trad. The "hidini" literally gave me chills, reminded me of the best of celtic woman. And so few people play the wooden flute, less play it well, and just WOW! Hell this made friggin homesick!
I don't know how many times I've told myself that I would listen to you sing anything. The fact that I sat through the entire HelloFresh ad is proof that I wasn't lying to myself.
Just finished painting my bedroom listening to sea shanties...how I wish this had been available on Spotify, because your version kicks the tea and rum out of all the rest...! “The Wellerman” has just sailed into the 21st century. So beautifully done...and Hello Fresh owes you for that charming ditty you created, methinks.

Malinda has been helping me a lot. I can't get into my therapist for a month and my mental health is falling apart. It is destroying me from the inside out. Something that happens almost daily is that I get a panic attack and I get overwhelmingly stressed from everything I or anyone else does. Malinda a music always calms me down almost instantly and helps my when I'm thinking about doing the worst. Thank you Malinda for helping keep my feet on this earth.
I find that watching kitten cams helps me to relax. It is funny how watching sleeping kittens, (and they do sleep a LOT), can reduce my stress level so well! One cam I watched here on youtube is Club Smoosh, owned by Sarah Donner who like me has depression and she uses the cam to help with her own depression and her band (Kittens Slay Dragons), dragons being a nickname for depression helps to promote awareness. Well worth watching and there is chat with others who also have depression.
@@kaiohanlon42 Hey Kai, it seems like you’re having a spiritual problem.. you may not now about this or you may.. but I just wanted to share with you that if you have any desire to free yourself from this, I suggest you listen to Rebecca Browns book called “He came to set the captives free.” I hope you get around to listening to it, it will help you.
Love this version - The word "tonguing" in the lyrics is so cleverly used after the previous sentence with the sugar, and and rum as it epitomizes all the sounds, movements, behaviour and effects that take place as the result of consuming the long awaited sugar, tea and rum!!
I sometimes substitute teach in a Navy JROTC class. I'm going to use this to teach them to march. The beat is right and it will be a cool little merchant marine history lesson.
I've been playing guitar for one year and I play like Beethoven and your music has done nothing but teach me everything I need to know by heart.... You are amazing
This has the most entertaining commercial attached to it. Most times I either skip the commercials or, if at the end I just go to the next video. But not with this. The commercial is as entertaining as the video. Bravo!
One of my six year olds absolutely adores this video and your rendition of the Wellerman. We’ve watched it multiple times and I suspect many more to come. Great job.
Malinda, this is amazing! Obviously, your cover is gorgeous, but the added verses?!?! Genius! We love to see a creative partnership between a creator and a brand as opposed to the usual "Hey, buy this thing so I can pay my rent" that we see from most UA-camrs. This video was so lovely! Hope you're doing well! 💜💜
This version does more than slap, it actually brought me to tears of joy it was so dang good...simply amazing, and the commercial at the end with your own verses were simply brilliant, and comical at the same time!!! This vid needs at least 10 million more views
Holy cow. The song is catchy already. But oh my goodness. You gave me literal goosebumps, and inexplicable tears. Your voice is beyond haunting and beautiful!
I hear this & I picture being out in the middle of the Atlantic on a misty morning & hearing a beautiful Siren with an equally beautiful voice. Also, I suddenly want to try HelloFresh for "unrelated" reasons.
I love what you did with this! I have listened to it so often that I find myself singing the words in my head, but mixing them up with the verses you wrote for your sponsor. “Soon may the Wellerman come to bring us quick and tasty noms…” 😂
As a kid these limerick songs were song at many of our family gatherings, the location was always at Sag Harbor on the Long Island Sound a place that was a whaling town for over 100 years. This song you done brought back memories and keeping songs like this alive.
Now when I hear a catchy song on tv or radio, you’re my go to, to finding a version that’s better than the original or other coverers. You’re so beautiful! Voice, appearance, and verse writing lol I love you
I saw the Wellerman a few days ago. I loved it. I was saying to myself I would like a new Malinda video. And Malinda makes a new video, singing the Wellerman. Wow. Thank you 💙
@@marykay8587 Centuries old would be an overstatement, a Wellerman would be a supply ship run by the Weller brothers, who's company was founded in 1831 and became one of the larger players in whaling and trade in New Zealand, however, by 1840 the whale population in the area was in a decline, and if I recall correctly, the company would go out of business at that time. Which means the story the song narrates would have to be set to that rather limited time frame. The song itself is apparently thought to be from the 1860s or 70s, though.
Had the bright idea to go through every Wellerman upload on UA-cam. Ended up here. Noticed that (so far) out of all the covers I’ve came across, you actually nailed the “HUH” quite beautifully. Other than that I love your voice. Found myself almost in a trance. Gonna have to go check out HelloFresh now too.
You're brilliant! That should cover everything. Your expressions, your tone, your singing, your person, your mimicking, your flute (can you tell I play the flute by mentioning that?), and your charismatic person. You bring value. Thank you.
I love the original version of this song and you do a wonderful version. You are very talented. You put your own style to a song and make it great all its own. Not everyone can do that
I have never heard a better version than this! It even sounds better than the one where those guys sing with a deeeep-throat-bass. The clarity of your voice even taught me a few words that I never could quite hear in other versions. Beautiful!
No simping here but seriously the lighting, effects and your appearance were outstanding in this video. Additionally, I was impressed with your ad. I doubt I have ever watched a full ad before--well done.
I can't help but visualize her singing at an old bar where sailors, pirates, and many other sea men mingle. The setting she used really brought the atmosphere of the olden times out in an amazing and creative way.
Your song wellerman as well as many others ive watched of you are all so great i will listen to them over and over. Now about the hello fresh commercial... id so enjoy watching commercials more if they were all done by you. I love the sound of your voice. Thank you for sharing it.

Tounging is a centuries old procedure of cutting the fat from dead whales... sorry if I ruined the mood
@@-themindslayer- I wonder if the use of the word "tonguing" derived from the shape of the tools they used.

Favorite version so far :))
Goosebumps..
Love the extra verses and little dances!
As a kid these limerick songs were song at many of our family gatherings, the location was always at Sag Harbor on the Long Island Sound a place that was a whaling town for over 100 years. This song you done brought back memories and keeping songs like this alive.
The Hello Fresh sea shanty deserves its own like, but UA-cam won't let me.
Where have I been!!! I love this song but more I LOVE THIS WOMEN…OMG! PERFECTION!!!
Please don’t ever stop posting Malinda. I and other Irishmen need you!!
Now when I hear a catchy song on tv or radio, you’re my go to, to finding a version that’s better than the original or other coverers. You’re so beautiful! Voice, appearance, and verse writing lol I love you
I saw the Wellerman a few days ago. I loved it. I was saying to myself I would like a new Malinda video.
And Malinda makes a new video, singing the Wellerman.
Wow. Thank you 💙
This was truly the best ad I've ever seen. Looks like The Wellerman format sticks to my brain better than three years of learning to cook.
Love Malinda to bits. Highly talented. Got to say 3 minutes 2 seconds............ I got chills. AWESOME and amazing
The song is centuries old. You can never be late
Is it ??
Or you being sarcastic cause I thought it was written by some dood on tiktok
@@marykay8587 Centuries old would be an overstatement, a Wellerman would be a supply ship run by the Weller brothers, who's company was founded in 1831 and became one of the larger players in whaling and trade in New Zealand, however, by 1840 the whale population in the area was in a decline, and if I recall correctly, the company would go out of business at that time.
Which means the story the song narrates would have to be set to that rather limited time frame. The song itself is apparently thought to be from the 1860s or 70s, though.
Had the bright idea to go through every Wellerman upload on UA-cam. Ended up here. Noticed that (so far) out of all the covers I’ve came across, you actually nailed the “HUH” quite beautifully.
Other than that I love your voice. Found myself almost in a trance.
Gonna have to go check out HelloFresh now too.
You're brilliant! That should cover everything. Your expressions, your tone, your singing, your person, your mimicking, your flute (can you tell I play the flute by mentioning that?), and your charismatic person. You bring value. Thank you.
She's AmAzInG!! We want Malinda in Canada!!!!!
You did a fabulous job, lady. The flute added a mesmerizing effect to the song.
HelloFresh should make this song a tv ad
So glad you made a full version!
Always loved this sea shanty!! And this is the best version of it EVER!! Thanks, Malinda!! Even the sponsor verses are fun!!
I love the original version of this song and you do a wonderful version. You are very talented. You put your own style to a song and make it great all its own. Not everyone can do that
I have never heard a better version than this! It even sounds better than the one where those guys sing with a deeeep-throat-bass. The clarity of your voice even taught me a few words that I never could quite hear in other versions. Beautiful!
She has such a voice , that if she sang the phone book it would sound good !
Fact
Yes! ❤
Yes 🙌🏻
I'd love to see and hear her singing the cook book! she is BRILLIANT
You still loud alarm from Simon Cowell
You have the best singing voice of all times, and I absolutely loved how you sing this song beautifully
No simping here but seriously the lighting, effects and your appearance were outstanding in this video. Additionally, I was impressed with your ad. I doubt I have ever watched a full ad before--well done.
I can't help but visualize her singing at an old bar where sailors, pirates, and many other sea men mingle. The setting she used really brought the atmosphere of the olden times out in an amazing and creative way.
Admiring is not simping tho people make it look like it is
Your voice is an enchantment, you are naturally beautiful. Thanks for your videos. Greetings from France

Your dancing made that whole ad worth it
Your song wellerman as well as many others ive watched of you are all so great i will listen to them over and over. Now about the hello fresh commercial... id so enjoy watching commercials more if they were all done by you. I love the sound of your voice. Thank you for sharing it.
That was an amazing performance from a very talented young lady. Well Done !!!!!
