Also please support my friends who covered this song too!! Links in description
Excellent job, Jonathan! And thanks again for the livestream of you mixing this song yesterday! It was interesting learning what goes into putting a song out.
Thank you man thank you so very much!!!! I love this!!
The talents this man has is absolutely beautiful and I'm super thankful this man does what he does!!!!!
This was a bangin song!!!
Jonathan please do the songs covers from Quest for Camelot 🥺🙏🏼
P.S. YOU METAL COVER SONGS ARE JUST MIND BLOWING! 😆 AND I LOVE IT!!!😁
YEAAAAAAH
OMGOSH!
@@AxxLAfriku after looking at your channel for about two seconds I have decided this is false
Holy crap
Does this mean you guys are doing a crossover soon?
@@nathankoh7247 I second your opinion.
WOOOOOOOOOOOO
Jon thought that singing this song once was not enough so he decided to sing it again and said “yes but how we make it metal.”
Yep. He had to come back for da Wellerman without First Mate Hyles and the rest of the crew
I think the crew version is a little bit better, just because the variation in voices
Now if that pair used this version
I prefer more variation. This sounds kinda flat.
Mom
Beat me to it! 7 string drop d sick as fuck! Whats with the midgit spinner love it!!!
And he plays the hurdy gurdy??? This mans talent knows no boundaries
Hahah that totally caught me off guard
anyone who plays piano can play hurdy gurdy!!!
You mean anyone who's secretly a PIRATE can play the hurdy gurdy!
... a pirate who can play a piano that is
Since when?
@@jonathanymusic MORE HURDY GURDY COVERS!! seriously. it's like the ultimate cross of a guitar and a piano excluding the Keytar.
The original: for hunting whales with a wooden ship.
this version: for when the world's navy hunts down several fucking megalodons with whole battle groups of Battleships and cruisers.
Not to nitpick, but while Megalodons were hughe for sharks, they're not that hughe by whale standard ;)
*The entire Royal Navy of the British Empire hunting the Nazi Bismarck down in righteous fury and vengeance for the sinking of the HMS Hood. - 1941*
@@_s_9920 now i got to listen to that John Horton song again...
Speed this version up a little and it could almost pass as a song by Alestorm.
@@reappermen shhhhhhh don’t ruin the imagination
Me: *jamming out to wellerman metal cover*
Jonathan: *stares directly into the camera while intensely playing the hurdy gurdy to assert his dominance*
HA, that's really good
I misread that as "Jamming out while doing the Wellerman Maneuver" LOL
That's because Hurdy Gurdys are badass. Original metal instrument of choice.
Was here to make a comment on the hurdy gurdy and can’t top yours.
@@scottvangiesen6199 how are you unable to top my comment
Get this man a longcoat, tricorne, kickass boots, and a cutlass. He deserves them.
And don't forget the signature piece of art............the eyepatch, he deserves that too
As well as a badass face covering scarf and an eyepatch
I will supply the ship
"I sense a change in the winds says I " - joshamee Gibbs
A cutlass or a cut lass? Read that out loud
YES!! Awesome stuff!! ☠️❤️
THANK YOU
You've both done a cover, now do it again, but at the same time.
Jonathan sung it once and thought "No. Not metal enough"
Then he sung it with friends and said "better, but still not metal enough "
I've said it before and I'll die on this hill: EVERYTHING sounds better when it's metal.
@@Catholic17 well, anything by kiss sounds horrible. So.
@@Catholic17 The best versions of Kiss Songs are done by people other than Kiss
Check out frogleapstudios UA-cam if you sincerely believe that cause if Jonathan hasn't proved it leo will I suggest the cover of johnny be goode
FR
@@Catholic17 IMO Beth isn't a metal song. It's a song by a rock band. They did many versions. the Destroyer album version, so many live performances, and the MTV unplugged version. I've heard some metal versions, some I liked, some I didn't like. The album version I really liked, and the unplugged one I thought was the definitive version of the song. If you don't like the original because it isn't metal enough then I won't argue with you. You are entitled to your opinion and I will respect that, but I enjoyed it and still do, so in the end agree it isn't metal, but it IS good music. If you meant that no one has ever done a decent metal cover of the song despite it being solid rock, then I apologise for not understanding your intention, but still disagree there are a few obscure metal covers out there that are worth a listen.
No one:
Johnathan Young: "Watch me turn a banger into a bomber."
Or the death star
Or a supernova
or a blackhole
Aaahhhhooooyyyyy
great minds think alike!!!
Yall in cahoots now
love both versions! Amazing
Hi I love your cover Violet 🖤
Ye know the drill, boys, as soon as this gets on Spotify, we're setting sails to the ol raging sea
Aye aye captain 😁😁
You got it sir I’ll steer I used to fly gunships and fighters so yeah I’m with you till then end captian may we dine with our lord in HEAVEN
I can't escape this song but this time I let it take me.
I listened to 1 cover of it and now 5 more popped up in my recommended lol
let it happen
You should listen to The Longest John's version
The surprise hurdy gurdy really caught me off guard. We stan a man who can play a hurdy gurdy.
The sheer amount of instruments Jonathan knows how to play is just baffling. I don't think people much pay attention to that enough. You are amazing dude, and please, for all that is good in this world, PLEASE keep making your amazing music.
I second that motion!
Third it!
Oh wow, I did not expect this comment to blow up like it has!
JoYo's manager or producer: so how metal do you want this song to be?
JoYo: yes
i did this one all by myself this time ;)
@@jonathanymusic owo I love your content man been a fan since 2018
His face is so aggressive at the start that I'm trying to figure out if I should be scared or if I should immensely respect the fact he kept a straight face
Absolute certified banger, i want to see more sea shanties turned metal tbh
don't tempt me
@@jonathanymusic do it
@@jonathanymusic plz do it
@@jonathanymusic This is me, tempting you. MOAR!
@@jonathanymusic *MOAR*
It’s 4:44 in the morning. My 3 week old daughter is being fussy and this is helping me pull another all nighter. Thank you brother keep up the good work.
Damn dude. Hope she went to sleep lol
Ay congrats! I wish you guys the best
There's something just extremely satisfying with the rhythm of sea shanties, the mix of metal music just make them sound so epic. I would absolutely love to see more!
you know Johnny's serious when he breaks out the hurdy-gurdy.
Imagine hunting for a ghost ship and hearing that thing over the waves before a storm.
@@mojothemagickcrafter7635 I would *DIE* to experience that
The only fitting tune to sail the high seas with.
I did not know I needed a hurdy-gurdy in a metal cover, but I am glad it is in my life now.
Go listen to Eluveitie. You won't be disappointed. It's folk metal with a lot of hurdy-gurdy.
@@dawntherin2833 this!!! Also "Farewell" by D'artagnan and Patty Gurdy is amazing.
@@dawntherin2833 @Aynessa Valerion Thank you both for the suggestions! I'll have to give them all a go!~
@@dawntherin2833 @Aynessa Valerion Thank you both for the suggestions! I'll have to give them all a go!~
Welcome to folk metal
I've heard easily 12 versions of this song, several of them with the 'metal cover' words in the title and this is by far the most metal version of them all. Well done sir.
This is my favorite version so far of this song.
Same
Agree
How do you find the one by the longest John's ?
This is everything I ever wanted.
Pirates of the Caribbean X Mad Max = 🎸
I think I've finally found what I've been looking for my whole life... and it's this
Mad Sparrow
You mean like Water World?
@@Green_Ghost_Leif Not like Water World. We don't talk about Water World.
The cover we needed and wanted, not the cover we deaerved
Deserved*
@LUC HARTWELL style points
Desearved*
imma leave now bye
Daangggg, this is stronger than a morning coffee!!!
Tonguing = The butchering of a whale carcass on shore.
Wellerman = A man in the employ of the Weller Brothers whaling company, in this case the regular arrival of a resupply ship.
Billy (of tea) = A make shift cooking pot or kettle.
I thought Wellerman referred to the ships owned by the Weller brothers, not their employees?
@@flamboyantwarlock7101 If I remember correctly, the employees were known as Wellerman (or Wellerboys but that’s much less likely)
Jon: *plays sea shanty*
Me: *aggressively stomps foot*
😂
I’m so happy that Jon’s still making covers even after he started making his own music. I love both so much and honestly it’s the best of both worlds!
Fun fact: “tonguing” refers to cutting strips of blubber from the whale
Yup, the song is about a whaling ship. The boats mentioned in the song (there were only four) are the skiffs the mothership would launch while hunting whales, manned with harpooners to go in for the kill.
Not very fun for a "fun fact" but I guess that's education for you
Yes. And your point is?
No point. Just dismantled whales
Yeah but... Where is the"fun" in thar fact?
My son, who is in 2nd grade, chose this song as his song of the week in his classroom since he was the "student of the week". The teacher said all the kids got into it and really enjoyed your version of the song and were all rocking out!!
Dad: are you winning son?
*me in the seas of thieves rushing 2 Frigate alone*
Since when does Jonathan know how to play the hurdy gurdy!? INCREDIBLE ADDITION
two and a half minutes in, i already grow a goatee
congrats my dude
Well now we need 'What to do with a drunken sailor'
please!!
Amazing. I am particularly fascinated with drums from 0:55 to 1:05 when they upgrade a notch from normal rock style to metal routine and after that from 1:15 on to full speed metal.
If you're not here from tiktok you're a legend
That would be me…honest heard the original then poked around on UA-cam found this version
✌🏻😇🙏🏻
Why are u gay
Hello, I am Legend
I heard it from UA-cam
Jonathan Young is the Wellerman King. Not only has he put on 1+ covers of the song, but they've both been lit bangers!
Wouldn't it be 1.20? The collab was 5 people.
@@goldencyclone4984 Actually I think 1.25 is too low. About half of the other cover is done as a group rather than all solo, it should be somewhere around 1.6 covers of this song.
@@meiisbei5974 he did becking vocals in anna's version too, check her cover's description
@@enwarrior8163 Didn't know that!
That hurdy gurdy alone earned you a like good sir.
How did JoYo get even manlier than he already was
peak manliness was achieved in Barbie Girl, nothing will ever top that
Sick pfp , something about it almost sends me into seven inches of satanic panic.
Mainstream "singers": I can't sing without autotune
Jonathan: hold my hurdy gurdy
This could be a soundtrack for the actual fight itself.
Especially if the whalers' tech is modern and the whale itself is an extremely powerful mutant with superpowers.
or space whales
how about in space, with a freighter-class pirating vessel taking on a fleet of galactic federation warships
so it's almost like through the song, you get the sense that the pirate vessel is the whale, yet they're the one to root for.
sorry, thinking out loud for a future project
I love the fact that John started to implement more and more modulations in his covers and original songs!
DUDE. Was that a freaking HURDY-GURDY I saw you playing there?! I had no idea you could play one of those! That’s awesome!
It's been 16 minutes since it was posted and so far I've listened to it 4 or 5 times already. And I'm also pretty sure at this point Jonathan is just becoming a pirate, beard, long hair and multiple Sea Shanties? hmm
When the doom music kicks in but you’re out at sea
This will forever be my favorite cover of this song. Stay awesome, Jonathan!
Johnathon and Caleb are so good it isn't just a crime to pirate their music, it's a mortal sin
I see what you did there 😉
I love this man's musical style so much. 😭 Everything he touches turns to gold.
If this doesn’t get into a pirate theme action movie there is no more hope in humanity bc this is badass
Of all the versions I have heard of this song this is the one my daughter calls "the one with the perfect voice." Your videos are a family favorite.
you're one kind of an amazing musician yourself man. I still remember that video of yours where you told the story of that girl who said your music was terrible. we all here are so proud of you, never stop doing what you do ♥
Jon is reaching levels of pirate I never thought possible
Godlike
This has NO business being this badass
You playing the hurdy-gurdy while singing Wellerman with a dead straight face will never stop being funny to me.
And just straight INTIMIDATEING
1:37 I love everything about this part.
That are amazing instruments I would never thought: a seven string electric guitar and an electric hurdy gurdy.
By far my favorite cover.
Are you kidding me? This man is seriously the embodiment of the College of Metal Bard.
Probably the coolest part of this is that he promoted his friends.
I've finally found the best cover of the Wellerman and from now on I can rest in SOON MAY THE WELLERMAN COME TO BRING US SUGAR AND TEA AND RUM
Dear Jonathan, you are amazing.
Sea shanties, disney covers, and yet no Pirates of the Caribbean covers yet, hopefully leading up to it 😉😉
I second that notion
I third that notion
I fourth that notion
I fifth that notion
I seventh that notion
This is the most incredible take on this song I have ever heard, and the fact that you broke out a hurdy gurdy just blows my mind and makes this so much better.
Heavy Metal Pirates, this is dope
@joyo - an Alestorm cover next?
My kids and I are obsessed with this song and love the covers that creators are doing... now I have this awesome one to show them!
The amount of talent you have is astounding!! Jonathan, you always leave me completely speechless with how incredibly talented you are!!!!!!!
I believe I've said this before, but Jonathan...if you are seeing this, I love you. You are simply amazing.
Nothing could've prepared me for the metal hurdy gurdy. I was jammin and singing along and then he pulled out that and I just sat there dumbfounded.
If Jonathan was a whaler his crew would be holding the most hype concerts ever
Jon: wanna see me sing wellerman?
Also jon: wanna see me do it again?
This guy deserves a reward for “amazing songs”
Dude, the world needs this as a CDLC for Rocksmith!
Metal sea shanty is as badass as it can be.
Jonathan is the captain of the Ship. A humble, calm, smart, serious, maybe a bit sarcastic and gentlemen Pirate, who's rule his ship with an iron fist and would die for his crew. He's the greatest Captain in the 7 Seas. He's a good leader and he know how to give the right orders in the tightest situations. Everyone respect him but also fear him, he's know to be the best swordsman in the world and until now. No one was able to defeat him... Anyways a captain that know who he is, and what he's doing.
*Collab ver.*
It's the first time that they saw him and his crew, he's show as the calm, collected and serious Captain that he is. Leading his crew with his gentle yet strong voice.
It's the first meeting.
*Metal ver*
It's during a battle. Maybe even a war? Him and his crew are fighting against someone or something but one by one, his crew are slowly and painfully being taken down. Not far away the Jonathan is fighting against the Boss/Leader of the enemies, he may be the strongest but now... He seems like the one in difficulties. He got attack by a strong attack of the enemie's Leader and defend himself, by defending himself it's also lead him to make him close his eyes and he got violently ejecting against a rock/wall, when he open his eyes... He saw with shook and terror his crew being destroyed by his enemies. That's it. He can't take this horrific vision anymore. That's when something inside him snap and makes him snap. While the enemie's Leader come for ending him, he suddenly take his emergency weapon and attack the Leader right where is hurt, injuring him badly. Then he rush toward the enemies who's still trying to kill his crew and one by one he takes them down. One of his crew was still conscious, and with difficulty he open his eyes to see his captain fighting their opponents. But when he see him. It's wasn't the gentle and nice Captain that he used to laugh, talk and even shared stuff with, no, this time, it's was a monster. A real demon seems to have possessed the Captain, he had a hatred and angry looks, he seemed to be able to kill someone just by looking at them. But what was the most scary things, is that the fact that even badly injured he took half of the enemies down when they were around 10'000 enemies. And the counter still go down. He didn't stop, blinded by rage and vengeance. The enemie's Leader look at the man with fear, for the first time he feel this feelings, him that always told to everyone he met that he didn't fear anything or anyone. But seeing the Captain in action, he thought to himself, "Is this man really a human...?"
(Note: I know that no one's gonna read this, but I just wanted to write this 'Cause why not. I know some that some part may be very Shonen like but well I mean I'm a big fan of Anime/Manga so yeah, I took some inspiration when writing it! I have a big imagination and I looove listening to music. It's always gave me a good inspiration when I don't have. I'm also a Novelist so yeah. Anyway if you have any question don't hesitate and ask them! Also don't hesitate to tell me what you're thinking about this story!)
What a story 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love all the chord changes and different chorus chord progressions.
Give this man a movie!!! He deserves it 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Now, if THIS was the version on the UA-cam ads I wouldn’t even skip.
Oh man, when he busts out that Herdy Gerdy... perfection.
honestly love this cover so much its not to fast paced an john's voive is just simply amazing with this song!!
One of my all time favorite Shanties and this is the best cover of it I've seen thus far 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️🐋🐋
All rise for the new National Anthem of the Internet.
In all seriousness, this is really good.
Dude, you sing great, especially the ending is well done, and the voice and character and instruments are perfectly matched
Legend has it the line was never cut, and the whale still tows that ship
I must have listened to this cover about a hundred times today alone. Thank you for making this great song even more epic!!
The fact you play the Hurdy Gurdy, increases the already incredible respect I have for you and your skills. Love it 🤘
All pirates that sing this version suddenly become Nords
BEST metal version! Absolutely love it!
I'm addicted to this version
This has to be the best rock music I ever herd in forever! ✨
My gosh, that's an honest to goodness hurdy gurdy you've got there.
Yes! I had no idea how much I needed to hear this! Thank you Jon!
Ahhhoooyyyy!
Im gonna make this my alarm for the weekends THATS HOW LIT IT IS
Badass every time! Little kindergardeners know it. My granddaughters started singing it when I beat on my guitar body to the beat. Blows my mind. Gave the wee one a armonica and she did well . God bless you Johnathon
I love this version . I love headbanging heavy metal songs .
I love metal and sea shanties this guy has mixed them and I love him for it
This is too good!
It feels like a song from Pirates Of The Caribbean.
This is amazing, don't get me wrong but I cannot possibly fathom a metal cover of "My Mother Told Me"
It's probably comes down to a matter of taste but - I checked all your friends that you linked at the end of this video - none of them had a cover as good as this one. Truly outstanding!
