sailors used to think it was bad luck to have a women on a ship so if a women was found onboard they would throw her into the sea and leave her to drown they believed that the women who they threw into to sea became mermaids seeking out sailors so they could pull them into the ocean and drown them

They took either full seal or shed their skin and became full human they never half formed, (from what I remember) but there's a lot of other mermaid folklore out there not just Disney's version.

+Ned Mccarthy in the odyssey odessious runs into sirens that are called harpies he tied himself to the ship and heard the song they sang and was tempted to go with them. Instead of sinking the ship they fly away with you.
Ned MCCarthy+ I don't know where you are getting your facts sir, but sirens were half fish half human creatures just like mermaids if seen from afar. It was only when sailors got up close, usually as their ships were being smashed up against the rocks, were they seen for what they were. More fish than woman. Like the creatures seen from the documentary "mermaid the body found." More likely they found a siren instead. As for your half bird girls, they were greek and roman folklore creatures called harpies. The seal girls were scottish folklore creatures known as selkies.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siren_%28mythology%29 . In Euripides' play, Helen (167), Helen in her anguish calls upon "Winged maidens, daughters of the Earth." Although they lured mariners, the Greeks portrayed the Sirens in their "meadow starred with flowers" and not as sea deities. Roman writers linked the Sirens more closely to the sea, as daughters of Phorcys.[5] Sirens are found in many Greek stories, notably in Homer's Odyssey. Sirens were believed to combine women and birds in various ways. In early Greek art, Sirens were represented as birds with large women's heads, bird feathers and scaly feet. Later, they were represented as female figures with the legs of birds, with or without wings, playing a variety of musical instruments, especially harps. The 10th-century Byzantine encyclopedia Suda[18] says that from their chests up Sirens had the form of sparrows, below they were women, or, alternatively, that they were little birds with women's faces. Birds were chosen because of their beautiful voices. Later Sirens were sometimes depicted as beautiful women, whose bodies, not only their voices, are seductive. The Early Christian euhemerist interpretation of mythologized human beings received a long-lasting boost from Isidore's Etymologiae.[27] "They [the Greeks] imagine that 'there were three Sirens, part virgins, part birds,' with wings and claws. 'One of them sang, another played the flute, the third the lyre. They drew sailors, decoyed by song, to shipwreck. According to the truth, however, they were prostitutes who led travelers down to poverty and were said to impose shipwreck on them.' They had wings and claws because Love flies and wounds. They are said to have stayed in the waves because a wave created Venus."
Upon one summer’s morning, I carefully did stray, Down by the Walls of Wapping, where I met a sailor gay, Conversing with a young las, who seem’d to be in pain, Saying, "William, when you go with you, you will ne’er return again". My heart is pierced by Cupid, I disdain all glittering gold, There is nothing can console me but my jolly sailor bold. His hair it does in ringlets, his eyes as black as cole, My happiness attend him wherever he may go, From Tower Hill, down to Blackwall, I wander, weep and moan, All for my jolly sailor, until he sails home. My heart is pierced by Cupid, I disdain all glittering gold, There is nothing can console me but my jolly sailor bold. My father is a merchant - the truth I now will tell, And in great London City in opulence doth dwell, His fortune doth exceed three-hundred thousand gold, And he frowns upon his daughter, who loves a sailor bold. A fig for his riches, his merchandise, and gold, True love is grafted my heart; give me my sailor bold: My heart is pierced by Cupid, I disdain all glittering gold, There is nothing can console me but my jolly sailor bold. Should he return in poverty, from o’er the ocean far, To my tender bosom, I’ll press my jolly tar. My sailor is as smiling as the pleasant month of May, And often we have wandered through Ratcliffe Highway, And here a pretty blooming young girl we happy did behold, Reclining on the bosom of her jolly sailor bold. My heart is pierced by Cupid, I disdain all glittering gold, There is nothing can console me but my jolly sailor bold. My name it is Maria, a merchant’s daughter fair, And I have left my parents and three thousand pounds a year, Come all you pretty fair maids, whoever you may be Who love a jolly sailor that ploughs the raging sea. While up aloft, in storm, from me his absence mourn, And firmly pray, arrive the day, he never more to roam.

My heart is pierced by Cupid, I disdain all glittering gold, There is nothing can console me but my jolly sailor bold.

Mermaids drown Sailors and Pirates, they are considered more pure. As Sirens sing songs that you could say cast a spell on men, making them tip over the edge of ships and then eat their bodies and souls. Sirens will not just go near land unless it is needed, they also do not typically go out during the day, it's like going towards your death sentence. Though Sirens can trance a man's mind, there are objects that can be enchanted and a man can hold that on him to keep him from being tranced by the Siren's Song. Source: I am fascinated with Merfolk Mythology
Stormie Stilettos Actually Sirens are not merfolk at all. In Greek mythology mermaids were half-fish. half-women creatures that were thought to mingle with humans and have children with them, like the Greek hero Achilles. Granted, mermaids legends can be traced back farther then Ancient Greece but that is the more common time where people know of them. Mermaids were known for being beautiful but not known for their singing or even killing sailors but there is probably some tales of that. Sirens on the other hand, according the Greek mythology, were not fish at all. They were half-women, half-bird like creatures that were known for their enchanting singing but not for their looks. They were sing and cause ships to crash on the shore and kill those on the ship as prey. Siren are described as talons, wings with feathers and beaks and mostly bodies of a bird with a head of a woman. Though sometimes they could be shown with the upper body of a woman as well. (For more information visit knowledgenuts.com/2014/02/05/the-difference-between-mermaids-and-sirens/) And the mermaids in the video are more 'realistic' then Ariel was. Ariel is a watered down and sweet vision of the mermaid and was loosely based off the novel "The Little Mermaid" by Hans Christian Anderson. I say loosely because a lot is different from the novel when looking at the Disney movie but that can be expected when the tale was made kid friendly. I'm not sure when Siren and Mermaids became one and the same but according to the mythology they were very different and only similar being that they were women and both close to the sea/ocean.
Tori Guyette I am quite aware that they are not merfolk... but they are mentioned in merfolk's mythology and I know the difference. I never said they were merfolk.
+AweAsome Gally yeah it all started with Greek mythology, since Greek were patriarchal who overcome matriarchal population who were in the region , they make sure to make everything about women look evil .. and that when started the stupid endless war against everything feminine :D
More like in a cave or something that's next to the ocean. You can hear the waves on the rocks outside of the opening, the water dripping from the ceiling, and the echo off the walls. Plus, sound doesn't travel underwater.
Z0mbieJuice mermaids are nice creatures sirens are evil creatures who sing a song to control the pirates, and they can only control/hypnotize men sirens are evil mermaids are good, sirens and mermaids also look different
MLP Kawaii Yuli u r right my friend was like what r sirens and I said the bad kind if mermaid and that can hypnotize and when they kiss they turn to stone
So I don't know if this was intentional, but the fact that you have no music in the background somehow makes this better. Also, the low-ish quality of the microphone and echo (was that intentional?) makes it awesome. It makes it feel like a lone mermaid in a cave singing or something.
Clawy - Roblox & More! The ones shown in the movie that sung this song were sirens. There’s a huge difference. Mermaids are considered more pure and only accidentally drown men they fall in love with. Most of the time they don’t get that the men can’t breathe underwater. Sirens have hypnotizing voices and deceiving beautiful faces they use to hypnotize men before dragging them under the water and eating their bodies and souls.
@@mychemicalromancewillpierc5241 Actually, sirens are originally half bird half woman. They hypnotize sailors with their voice and then eat them. Mermaids just sing and drown them. People kept confusing them over the years.
Singing au naturale without accompaniment is perhaps the hardest feat of all. I can give no higher praise. --- Your voice enchants like Siren song, So if you be a mermaid, Death by your hands could do no wrong. Oh Siren do embrace me, I will be your sailor bold.

Close your eyes..imagine you on a ship at midnight in the middle of an ocean.. The ship blacks out..then you hear this song..but don't know where its coming from.

Wait what. I've listened to this song at least ten, maybe even twenty times already and I fell for it sickly but was pretty sure it's original. Then even more, FANTASTIC JOB GODDAMN.
I find it so amusing that my music teacher finds it very calm and hypnotizing when I sing this too. But I really love your version best. It's so alluring and echo-y.
I've been listening to this for years now and I still can't fathom the perfection of your voice and singing style. You gotta be a mermaid. There's no other explanation.
I gotta say, I love it. Ps: I used it to scare my friends at work, it was all desert in the building and the walls produce a lot of echo. I started playing it on the first floor and walked the stairs up to the second, they were there getting some food and were scared as fuck, 10/10
On speakers, shifting , electronics,aimed at the ocean, under the pier. Sound shifted, echoed, human brain, !? Ears, sound shifted..from your left or right!? Underneath the pier or coming from the waves!? I love you, scared MANY, MARINES!?. FADING, changing the direction, couldn't pinpoint,!? Confused as ****? Yup!
I'm always so inspired to write about mermaids when I hear this song.... Yeah, I'm gonna write one while I get addicted to this wonderful, awesome song!! >:D

The only scene I like about Pirates of the Caribbean.Many movies have " Femme Fatale" theme but this is one of several that actually nailed it. Chills to even look at the actress and imagine manipulation. Brrr
Okay, not to be rude but it bugs me so two things: 1. Pirates of the Caribbean 2. Femme Fatale. By chance, are you French? Because that would explain why you said 'Fam' instead of 'Femme'.

i first discovered your incredible voice from your 'When A Good Man Goes to War' cover, and i instantly fell in love with the sound. I made a playlist so i could specifically use this as a sleep calmer.
C'mere kids and let me clear this whole mermaid/siren thing up Siren= bird ladies from Greek mythology that tempted sailors with promises of what the sailors want most Mermaid= fish ladies from Celtic mythology that distracted sailors with music and then drowned them when they got too close
wow your voice is so mysterious! it fits the song just perfectly! I feel like if I were to look outside my window, I'd see a bunch of sirens swimming around. lol really though, wonderful job dearie.
For all the Americans, The places mentioned are in East London, the same place jack the ripper was from and near where the Olympics was, they still exist. There is also a famous Blackwall tunnel. Tower Hill is in Tower Hamlets and has a train station too.
If you google "Jolly Sailor Bold", this is the first video in the results. Congratulations, Stephanie, you deserve it. I hope you get a recording contract out of it because you have an incredible voice and your rendition of this is absolutely perfect.
Just cant stop listening this voice! It makes me feel in love it makes me feel that i want to cry and it makes me feel like god and dust in the wind at the same time!
No words can describe how enthralled I am with this song... I've replayed this song 6 times so far. I can't stop listening to this siren's voice. Thank you, just thank you. SUBSCRIBED!!!!!
wait a girl on a beach sad and a man named William going off to sea and she thinks she will never see him again. is it just me or does that sound like Elizabeth and William
I guess it’s more of a deceitful song. Like it kinda gives me the vibes that she saw the sailor and had an flirty talk with him and she wants to be with him because he might never return when he leaves, so she wants to keep him with her... in the sea 🌊 Just me though.
The girl singing is model/actress Gemma Ward. She sang it in one of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies (On Stranger Tides). She's the first mermaid that shows up. She also sings acapella in the scene, so I'm sure it's supposed to sound exactly like this--beautiful, yet slightly haunting. (I mean, come on, she's trying to lure men to their death)
If you really love a sailor you realize that roaming over the sea is who they are and you accept that. It’s the same concept that inspired the Little Mermaid tale I am told.
Out of all the covers that I've seen, this one is absolutely the best on this platform! Just imagine a sailor hearing this in the ocean and only just one mermaid singing while the other pretty fair maids are basically ready to feast on the poor fellow like how a Velociraptor pack catches their prey by the sides. Take that idea when this song stops! The sailor would never know the other mermaids were there!
Stumbled on this video about a week ago, and it hasn't left my browser. I hear the song as it's sung here, and I'm instantly transported back to the Walt Disney World ride, floating past the trapped mermaid on the shore.
you have to be a good singer to sound good with no music or other singers
i know right, that is very hard. To sing without music is almost impossible
people who sing without music sing the song in their head while thinking of the music
Mace Borgan I actually find it easier to get the pitch I sing best in if I just sing alone without music. It comes more naturally if I don't hear something else influincing my interpretation.
i agree i think shes amazing with no muice or more singers
before there was music our voices were the music it's called acappella

Upon one summer's morning

Down by the walls of wapping
Where I met a sailor gay
Conversing with a young lass
Who seem'd to be in pain
Saying, William, when you go I fear
you'll ne'er return again
[Chorus]
My heart is pierced by Cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold

His hair it hangs in ringlets
His Eyes as black as coal
My happiness attend him
Wherever he may go
From Tower Hill to BlackWell
I'll wander, weep and moan
All for my jolly sailor
Until he sail's home
[Chorus]
My heart is pierced by Cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold
[Verse 3]
My father is a merchant
The truth I now will tell
and in great london city
in opulence doth dwell
His fortune doth exceed
Three hundred thousand gold
and he frowns upon his daughter
Who loves a sailor bold
A fig for his riches
His merchandise and hold
True love has grafted my heart
Give me my sailor bold
[Chorus]
My heart is pierced by Cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold
[Verse 4]
Should he return in pov'rty
From o'er the ocean far
To my tender bosom
I'll press my jolly tar
My sailor is as smiling
As the pleasant month of May
And often we have wandered
Through Ratcliffe Highway
Many a pretty blooming
Young girl did we behold
reclining in the bosom
of her jolly sailor bold
[Chorus]
My heart is pierced by Cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold
[Verse 5]
My name it is Maria
A merchant's daughter fair
And I have left my parents
and three thousand pounds a year
Come all you pretty fair maids
Whoever you may be
Who love a jolly sailor
That plows the raging sea
While Up Aloft a storm
From me his absence mourn
And firmly pray arrive the day
He's never more to roam
[Chorus] x2
My heart is pierced by Cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold

Mermaids drown Sailors and Pirates, they are considered more pure. As Sirens sing songs that you could say cast a spell on men, making them tip over the edge of ships and then eat their bodies and souls. Sirens will not just go near land unless it is needed, they also do not typically go out during the day, it's like going towards your death sentence. Though Sirens can trance a man's mind, there are objects that can be enchanted and a man can hold that on him to keep him from being tranced by the Siren's Song.
Source: I am fascinated with Merfolk Mythology
Stormie Stilettos Actually Sirens are not merfolk at all.
In Greek mythology mermaids were half-fish. half-women creatures that were thought to mingle with humans and have children with them, like the Greek hero Achilles. Granted, mermaids legends can be traced back farther then Ancient Greece but that is the more common time where people know of them. Mermaids were known for being beautiful but not known for their singing or even killing sailors but there is probably some tales of that.
Sirens on the other hand, according the Greek mythology, were not fish at all. They were half-women, half-bird like creatures that were known for their enchanting singing but not for their looks. They were sing and cause ships to crash on the shore and kill those on the ship as prey. Siren are described as talons, wings with feathers and beaks and mostly bodies of a bird with a head of a woman. Though sometimes they could be shown with the upper body of a woman as well. (For more information visit knowledgenuts.com/2014/02/05/the-difference-between-mermaids-and-sirens/)
And the mermaids in the video are more 'realistic' then Ariel was. Ariel is a watered down and sweet vision of the mermaid and was loosely based off the novel "The Little Mermaid" by Hans Christian Anderson. I say loosely because a lot is different from the novel when looking at the Disney movie but that can be expected when the tale was made kid friendly.
I'm not sure when Siren and Mermaids became one and the same but according to the mythology they were very different and only similar being that they were women and both close to the sea/ocean.
Tori Guyette I am quite aware that they are not merfolk... but they are mentioned in merfolk's mythology and I know the difference.
I never said they were merfolk.
Tori Guyette a lot of the whole mermaid drowning sailors is from british and namely irish mythology.
+AweAsome Gally yeah it all started with Greek mythology, since Greek were patriarchal who overcome matriarchal population who were in the region , they make sure to make everything about women look evil .. and that when started the stupid endless war against everything feminine :D
interested in daemons and demonic creatures based off of the seven sins?(I.e.succubus)?
A humans voice can be so beautiful oml
Shit it even sounds like it was recorded underwater :)
Kinda sounds like it's in a ravine or cave. Like you're sailing near them.
I know right
now that u have said it, it does sound that way... cud even hear the far away sound of waves even..
Holy crap your right!!
More like in a cave or something that's next to the ocean. You can hear the waves on the rocks outside of the opening, the water dripping from the ceiling, and the echo off the walls. Plus, sound doesn't travel underwater.
Without music it kinda sounds scary... in my opinion
It's suppose to they are mermaids.. They are deadly
you mean creepy as fuck
Z0mbieJuice mermaids are nice creatures sirens are evil creatures who sing a song to control the pirates, and they can only control/hypnotize men sirens are evil mermaids are good, sirens and mermaids also look different
MLP Kawaii Yuli u r right my friend was like what r sirens and I said the bad kind if mermaid and that can hypnotize and when they kiss they turn to stone
:D
So I don't know if this was intentional, but the fact that you have no music in the background somehow makes this better.
Also, the low-ish quality of the microphone and echo (was that intentional?) makes it awesome.
It makes it feel like a lone mermaid in a cave singing or something.
sorry i fix
It's like that because it's the way it sounds in the movie.
Creepier sounds like her head is above the waves singing out into the darkness of the sea luring poor sailors to their deaths
The bits of white noise if you listen has variant so rather than low quality it’s intentionally mimicking gentle waves
Tanglelegs I swear I hear dripping water sometimes too.
Eerie... In a good way.
you sound like a siren your voice is just hypnotizing
Drago Von Angelius it s a mermaid.
Clawy - Roblox & More! The ones shown in the movie that sung this song were sirens. There’s a huge difference. Mermaids are considered more pure and only accidentally drown men they fall in love with. Most of the time they don’t get that the men can’t breathe underwater. Sirens have hypnotizing voices and deceiving beautiful faces they use to hypnotize men before dragging them under the water and eating their bodies and souls.
@@mychemicalromancewillpierc5241 Actually, sirens are originally half bird half woman. They hypnotize sailors with their voice and then eat them. Mermaids just sing and drown them. People kept confusing them over the years.
Drago Von Angelius ddd
Siren is the real name of mermaids
I love this cover. The song itself is ominous and a tad creepy. A melody used to lure wayward sailors to their deaths.
Your voice is so hauntingly beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Singing au naturale without accompaniment is perhaps the hardest feat of all.
I can give no higher praise.

Your voice enchants like Siren song,
So if you be a mermaid,
Death by your hands could do no wrong.
Oh Siren do embrace me,
I will be your sailor bold.
if only that was a song and it were on iTunes ide buy it

The voice is great.
But this version scares and makes me shudder every times I listen,especially during the night.
I love it. It's like a lullaby to me ;-)
+Abc Pqrs same hahaha even if I think I prefer Mordred's lullaby
same here...I feel so warm while listening to this
don't know what scares you at night but it calms me down o.o
great lullaby
I love how it's only her voice. :D
As soon as she started singing, I spaced out.
Siren song love it's a spell 😘
Close your eyes..imagine you on a ship at midnight in the middle of an ocean.. The ship blacks out..then you hear this song..but don't know where its coming from.
I had no idea this was a cover, this is my favorite version.
Like if you'd rather be a siren
+Eddie Pryor lol id want to be one
I definitely would
out of anything, I would chose to be a siren
Sirens are large birds with the head of a person.... So I'd rather have rather have the bottom of a fish.
That's a Harpy.
The person who did this cover is either
A.
The oylimpic swimmer AKA The blond-haired mermaid/Siren singing this for her fans or
B.
An angel-like person with a like-no-other person's voice, A.K.A, An excellent singer!
***** I didn't mean the model.
***** She looks like Amanda Siefried.
The answer is B I believe

o.0 i actually thought this was the original version, not a cover XD
Me too!
Wait what. I've listened to this song at least ten, maybe even twenty times already and I fell for it sickly but was pretty sure it's original. Then even more, FANTASTIC JOB GODDAMN.
Me to the original in my opinion is..... FUCKING TRASH
Me too
Her vocal is mesmerizing and addictive
I find it so amusing that my music teacher finds it very calm and hypnotizing when I sing this too. But I really love your version best. It's so alluring and echo-y.
I've been listening to this for years now and I still can't fathom the perfection of your voice and singing style. You gotta be a mermaid. There's no other explanation.
I gotta say, I love it.
Ps: I used it to scare my friends at work, it was all desert in the building and the walls produce a lot of echo.
I started playing it on the first floor and walked the stairs up to the second, they were there getting some food and were scared as fuck, 10/10
Hahahahahaha! Oh, I'm doing that if I start working at a silent place that has a lot of echo. Just imagine.
Meeeee tooooo I love scaring people
On speakers, shifting , electronics,aimed at the ocean, under the pier. Sound shifted, echoed, human brain, !? Ears, sound shifted..from your left or right!? Underneath the pier or coming from the waves!? I love you, scared MANY, MARINES!?. FADING, changing the direction, couldn't pinpoint,!? Confused as ****? Yup!
Only droplet sounds in the background makes it so perfect.
My jolly sailor bold
It's amazing how beautiful this version is even though it has NO instrumental music
Good no mermaids are near... I would give in without blinking once mate
same
but sirens are birdlike creatures not mermaid knockoffs.
found both mermaids and half bird half women for sirens soooo yeah, personally i think a mermaid makes more sense
Daniyyal Yahya I am merman, would u give in to mermen?
Taonga Rigato+ you need to check your sources. The greek half bird women you just described are called harpies.
You prove talented singers don't need music.
Thank you!
I'm always so inspired to write about mermaids when I hear this song.... Yeah, I'm gonna write one while I get addicted to this wonderful, awesome song!! >:D
Mihela Qungik I better get a copy lol
with a voice like that I wouldn't mind drowning
Upon one summer's morning
I carefully did stray
Down by the walls of Wapping
Where i met a sailor gay
Conversing with a young lass
Who seemed to be in pain
Saying William when will you go
I fear you'll ne'er return again
My heart is pierced by cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold
His hair it hangs in ringlets
His eyes as black as coal
My happiness attends him
Wherever he may go
From Towerhills to Blackwall
I'll wander weep and moan
All for my jolly sailor
Until he sails home
My heart is pierced by cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor gold
My father is a merchant
The truth i now will tell
And in great London city
In opulence doth dwell
His fortune doth exceed
Three hundred thousand gold
And he frowns upon his daughter
Who loves a tailor bold
A fig for his riches
His merchandise and gold
True love has grafted my heart
Give me my sailor bold
My heart is pierced by cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor gold
Should he return in pov'rty
From o'er the ocean far
To my tender bosom
I'll press my jolly tar
My sailor is as smiling
As the pleasant month of May
And often we have wondered
Through Ratcliffe Highway
Many a pretty blooming
Young girls we did behold
Reclining on the bosom
Of her jolly sailor bold
My heart is pierced by cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor gold
My name it is Maria
A merchant's daughter fair
And i have left my parents
And three thousand pounds a year
Come all you pretty fair maids
Whoever you may be
A love a jolly sailor
That plows the raging sea
While up aloft in storm
From me his absence mourn
And firmly pray arrive the day
He's never more to roam
My heart is pierced by cupid
I disdain all glittering gold
There is nothing can console me
But my jolly sailor bold(x2)
The only scene I like about Pirates of the Caribbean.Many movies have " Femme Fatale" theme but this is one of several that actually nailed it. Chills to even look at the actress and imagine manipulation. Brrr
Okay, not to be rude but it bugs me so two things: 1. Pirates of the Caribbean 2. Femme Fatale. By chance, are you French? Because that would explain why you said 'Fam' instead of 'Femme'.
Yuuki Kisaragi Nope I'm not french. Simply moment of ignorance on my part =] . Thank you for correcting.

i first discovered your incredible voice from your 'When A Good Man Goes to War' cover, and i instantly fell in love with the sound. I made a playlist so i could specifically use this as a sleep calmer.
she's so gorgeous
Those are the kind of eyes that can drown a man without the need to pull him into the depth of the ocean.
I have been listening to this for the last 4 hours, and I still love it
C'mere kids and let me clear this whole mermaid/siren thing up
Siren= bird ladies from Greek mythology that tempted sailors with promises of what the sailors want most
Mermaid= fish ladies from Celtic mythology that distracted sailors with music and then drowned them when they got too close
You are not fully right with both. But k.
wow your voice is so mysterious! it fits the song just perfectly! I feel like if I were to look outside my window, I'd see a bunch of sirens swimming around. lol really though, wonderful job dearie.
This scene was friggin awesome
For all the Americans, The places mentioned are in East London, the same place jack the ripper was from and near where the Olympics was, they still exist. There is also a famous Blackwall tunnel. Tower Hill is in Tower Hamlets and has a train station too.
His eyes are as black as coal? Quick! Someone call Sam and Dean!
+TikiDragon1 She means he has pretty eyes from what I can tell...(My eyes are pretty black as well :P )
+uygar başkaya I figured that. I was just kidding.

nothing the winchesters cant fix. :P

I feel hypnotized by this mermaid
*Anyone in 2021?*
(Edit:I think I am the only one)
Nope, right here
Nope!
Here as well
Nope
Meee!
this is my favourite version of this song. i love your voice.
My heart is piereced by cupid, I disdain all glittering gold.. Nothing can console me but my jolly sailor bold..
If you google "Jolly Sailor Bold", this is the first video in the results. Congratulations, Stephanie, you deserve it. I hope you get a recording contract out of it because you have an incredible voice and your rendition of this is absolutely perfect.
Seriously are you a mermaid? Because you've just clouded my mind with your beautiful singing.

Haunting, beautiful, and perfect.
i sERIOUSLY feel dizzy and enchanted by this. totally would fall for a mermaid with this voice
i am a dead pirate
Just cant stop listening this voice! It makes me feel in love it makes me feel that i want to cry and it makes me feel like god and dust in the wind at the same time!
I love this song, because I scared my brother singing it
G.J girl ;3
was he scared because its creepy or the fact your singing 'My jolly sailor bold' to your brother.

No words can describe how enthralled I am with this song... I've replayed this song 6 times so far. I can't stop listening to this siren's voice. Thank you, just thank you. SUBSCRIBED!!!!!
Thank you! I'm glad you like it.
@@AcapellaOnion 6 months later and still loving every tone... LOL SMASH THAT REPLAY
she has such a nice voice, still watching this movie for 12 years
anyone here in 2019??!!! misss old song like this and movie!????
i literally can't listen to any other version than this one anymore
How beautifully haunting a softly sung ballad can reach into the depth of a Soul.
I cannot get this song out of my head
No music or backing just beautifully sung by a lady with a lovely voice
Still listening in 2017 this song is so beautiful
Best rendition of this song ever, best voice for it! Still listening to it 4 years later!
The voice of a beautiful creature
wait a girl on a beach sad and a man named William going off to sea and she thinks she will never see him again. is it just me or does that sound like Elizabeth and William
Pepsi Man I've only just realised that
Lol it is them
I guess it’s more of a deceitful song. Like it kinda gives me the vibes that she saw the sailor and had an flirty talk with him and she wants to be with him because he might never return when he leaves, so she wants to keep him with her... in the sea 🌊
Just me though.
I closed my eyes while listening, it was so beautiful I couldn’t breath, that’s when I realized I was underwater
You can't hear her breath in for those clear tones.
It makes it so perfectly gloriously eery
The girl singing is model/actress Gemma Ward. She sang it in one of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies (On Stranger Tides). She's the first mermaid that shows up. She also sings acapella in the scene, so I'm sure it's supposed to sound exactly like this--beautiful, yet slightly haunting. (I mean, come on, she's trying to lure men to their death)
Sounds like a mermaid indeed. Amazing voice
If you really love a sailor you realize that roaming over the sea is who they are and you accept that. It’s the same concept that inspired the Little Mermaid tale I am told.
This is such a mesmerizing song, no wonder it draws young sailors in
Beautiful
Thank you!
@@AcapellaOnion mention not
incredible work. Need this one in studio quality!
Chills all over
I love how simple this song is
Easy to follow
This sounds absolutely beautiful and has been the best cover of this song that I could find.
What an amazing voice.
WHY AM I IN LOVE WITH THIS MERMAID AAAAAAAA
This is the BEST thing to sleep to. I love it
Out of all the covers that I've seen, this one is absolutely the best on this platform! Just imagine a sailor hearing this in the ocean and only just one mermaid singing while the other pretty fair maids are basically ready to feast on the poor fellow like how a Velociraptor pack catches their prey by the sides. Take that idea when this song stops! The sailor would never know the other mermaids were there!
BEAUTIFUL!
Such a voice
This sounds better acapella and gives you an understanding as to why sailors/pirates found the mermaid so captivating
Stumbled on this video about a week ago, and it hasn't left my browser. I hear the song as it's sung here, and I'm instantly transported back to the Walt Disney World ride, floating past the trapped mermaid on the shore.
You have a wonderful voice. Disney should've hired you for the soundtrack version of this! :)
This song is so addicting!
I like how you can sit and listen to this over and over.
The voice is quite relaxing and mesmerizing. It is very deep and rich. It fits the song well.
What a lovely voice she has. It is nice and pure voice. ... raad from Iraq
Hypnotizing. Gemma Ward nailed it.
It's really beautiful..
This is real axing and love her voice
Not her voice, watch the movie
How do u know
This song calms the beast in me ,I love it
