@@azucar_skull definitely spend some time immersing yourself in old English literature. Find your rhythm and learn the dialect. I'm so ready for people to start writing shanties!
@@robincb It's the thought-line of, "what if this was medieval". Search up medieval Star Wars music and you'll know what it is. Also medieval Doom music.
Okay, why is this "My mother told me" rendition so disgustingly and completely, unnecessarily and obscenely good? This had no business blowing my mind.
I truly believe this is all about the return to REAL voices, no tricks, no fixes, not even instruments, just the beauty of the human voice rising up together.
@@RKHageman I was referencing a meme. You obviously didn't get that. While literally everyone understood that "her" means the ship. Like what are we gonna do name a ship after a dude?
The only thing i did in that game was progress enough to unlock all ship upgrades followed by like 90ish hours of sailing and pirating and singing all the shanties with my college roommate while he played games on his pc behind me. It was fantastic.
I have been listening to sea shanties and folk music since I was old enough to enjoy music and it makes me happy that people are finally realising how great they are.
I am so glad that you put the longest Johns in there. Them, Assassin's Creed and the dreadnaughts kept me sane in 2020 and I am glad Shanties are making a comeback
Maybe if they brought Avi in too. That dude's bass is just incredible. Seeing the music he produces without Pentatonix is astonishing, he was stifled there. Check out his channel, seriously.
Sea shanties were the last thing on my mind until yesterday, now I am obsessed. The beautiful harmonies and the constant rhythm have made sea shanties my new favorite genre of music.
If you like Shanties, might I recommend looking up a song called Bedlam Boys, any artist the song has a multitude of lyrics just like Drunken Sailor. Wolfrider Unchained is another good song, and anything based on the books by Mercedes Lackey (Magic’s Price is a favorite)
I thought i recognised those faces and voices @longestjohns at 3:30 been listening to them for years now and their sea shanting sea of thieves stream are always entertaining :)
Never Again Volunteer Yourself. Take it from me, you don’t want the navy unless you like working 16+ hours per day with no days off for months at a time.
Not going to lie... getting so tired of wellermen. I tried singing oak and ash and thorn in sea of thieves the other day and people were like "oh that's cool, do you know wellermen?" ... yes... but I have heard a million times in the last few weeks.
Sea shanties. A perfect showcase of the unifying power of music or something idk
I am for it, more songs to sing while drinking is a plus
A perfect comment doesn’t exist...
This comment: exists
Considering the increase in alcohol consumption since 2019, everybody's got a bit of pirate in them now.
@xixvالحسن vsv I'd argue that tiktok is showcasing it, but to each their own.
Fuck it I'm building a boat.
Can I join?
Lol x
Can I join too? Where do yuh live, fuck it time to build a boat. We shall sing sea shanties till our bellies fill with mead and sing on.
@@stephanlasley5781 I shall lower the sails
Take me with you
This year is bound to be the revival of the sea shanty.
let's hope! 🤞

2020: Bardcore
2021: Sea Shanties
Tell me of this.... bardcore
@@robincb forth this bardcore spoken of is the midevil versions of all sorts of songs
@@robincb This. XD

My thoughts exactly!!! I was enjoying all the songs, but that one dropped my jaw in sheer awe.
It's so good.
full version or we riot
I am an old person and I dont remotely try to understand Gen Z, but keep on, you crazy lil dorks, you are made of magic and stardust, ILY
I'd say it's more the millenials having fun than the gen z
At least it's not gen y
i’d say milennials too. gen z are pathetic lol
🤣🤣 this comment 🙌🙌
@@abra322 no they arnt, they are made of magic and stardust.

autotune makes mediocre voices sound good, but it also makes amazing voices sound... just good
I'm a simple man, I see sea shanty video? I click on sea shanty video
people taking duets to a whole new level is just beautiful imo
Her: "he's probably thinking of other girls"
Him: "leave her Johnny leave her."
Nope. “Her” is a ship, not a lady. They’re singing about crummy their shipboard duty has been, and now the voyage is done and it’s time to leave.
@@RKHageman I was referencing a meme. You obviously didn't get that. While literally everyone understood that "her" means the ship. Like what are we gonna do name a ship after a dude?
This is a trend I can stand behind. Assasin Creed BlackFlag Prepared me for this!
Exactly, my favourite being "leave her Johnny".

Star of the county down
Thank god they brought shanties back for Odyssey and Valhalla
@@gothgirl2245 tbh, they are not nearly as good as the black flag ones haha
I have been listening to sea shanties and folk music since I was old enough to enjoy music and it makes me happy that people are finally realising how great they are.
The guys doing old Maui are an actual shanty band called "the longest johns" and they are fucking amazing. Hence the shirt lol.
I was taught sea shanties in elementary school about 60 years ago. I can finally relate to “new music”
wow u must be really old then
@@juankarlomorales4523 well I guess 68 is pretty old to you, but most of the people my age were taught these songs in about 3rd grade.
even if "my mother told me" is not technically a sea shanty it is freaking awesome
I am so glad that you put the longest Johns in there. Them, Assassin's Creed and the dreadnaughts kept me sane in 2020 and I am glad Shanties are making a comeback
I’d be happy if pentatonix got on board with this trend
Maybe if they brought Avi in too. That dude's bass is just incredible. Seeing the music he produces without Pentatonix is astonishing, he was stifled there. Check out his channel, seriously.
Pentatonix would be fun, but I'd looove to see Peter Hollens jump in too!
YES everyone mentioned here AAAAAA please please please dooo
At this point, 2021 needs the *BIGGEST* music collab
Please, bring in every person you know who is either a singer or a instrument user.
The Longest Johns are a great group that just sing shanty's and its great
Found them after their song "Bones in the Ocean" and I've been addicted ever since
As a Cornishman I must recommend The Fisherman’s Friends or the Boscastle Bouys
With the revival of sea shanties, I'm hoping that new ones will be written about finally seeing family again and all that this year. One can only hope
“Why do I feel such a deep connection to this?”
Our Scottish ancestors: 👀
Anyone with ancestors with boats 👀
The Swede in me👀
My polish ancestors -
Wait.
Where’s my fellow Cornishmen at!?
Yo this comment actually got a like is very a fellow oggy man lurking?
Ubisoft’s music department: ...Guys? Anyone else seeing the Black Flag soundtrack listens go like. WAY up??
IM STARTING A PIRATE CREW. WE SAIL AT DAWN
can i join?
When will the ship sail by El Paso?
@@valariesandeen4581 we'll pick ye up in 2 fortnites
No joke, that second Mashup needs to be on iTunes. That was hot.
Sea shanties were the last thing on my mind until yesterday, now I am obsessed. The beautiful harmonies and the constant rhythm have made sea shanties my new favorite genre of music.
This is the type of music for any language, anyone will understand the vibe
This is wonderful. Thank You. My father was a sailor and used to sing some of these. THANK YOU.
You're welcome, thanks for listening!
When you on the Queen Anne's Revenge and the Shanty Hits
IT'S SEA SHANTY TIME BOYS
I think the world is slowly starting to realise that the Car Crashians aren't the true goal. authenticity is.
Who's here from Colbert? These songs are actually quite beautiful!
Probably long before that, but pop culture made use of them as early as 2008:

I'm sure this trend will be ruined by Jake Paul or someone like him.
Don't give people ideas.
Please no
early in the morning!
*ERR-lie in the MAHR-nin! 😆
Finally! Tik tok has a trend that fits with my 18th century piratecore aesthetic!
Finally TikTok videos are making more sense now.
Nathan is an 'old soul' for sure.
It's so good to see people enjoying my favorite music! Finally!
Canadians raised on stan rogers are having a stroke rn. (it's me, I'm canadians)
We stan Stan :)
STANNNNN (waiting for the tik tok people to discover Northwest Passage.)
STAN!
I'm here for sea shanty tiktok and then I'm like wait, why do I know so many sea shanties 😂
@@ink3539 but it has to be "passsAGE!" or it doesn't count lol
Thank you for not just putting 20 versions of the wellerman in and calling it a shanty compilation 😊
2:24 that was the first one that chills rolled down me, hes got potential
Hey look, it’s The Longest Johns
Now you’ve done it ... I have to play Black Flag all over again!
Three talented singers/musicians put together and you get a full-blown orchestra and choir! Amazing :-)
2021 is saving us with these beautiful tik tok sea shanty songs. Amazing.
Old Maui will forever be one of my favorite shanties... *.*
2:02 is my favourite sea shanty I first heard it in AC blackflag and I've loved it ever since
Right... Who's coming to sail the North Sea with me? Still need a Cook and two Helmsmen
I can cook pretty well. :)
First bardcore in the summer and now sea shanties. Sometimes i really love the internet for trends like this
Assassin's Creed Black Flag/Assassin's Creed Valhalla got me hyped up for this
Stan Roger's "Last of Barrett's Privateers "
Or Roll the Old Chariot
@@Frankensteins_Highboy Or his render of Old Maui. Fcking magical. Be warned though, his tune "White Squall" will make you CRY.
2021: The revival of sea shanties
2025: The revival of legit sailing
Love your video of tiktok sea shanties !
I have to say, I like the Sea Shanty version of All-Star better than the original.
Love how shanty is the theme
the All Star shanty is my new favorite song
no other can compare anymore
A shout out to The Longest Johns who started all this. 10 years ago.
So Simple!...So Magical!.....Thank you for this!.
So cool... I love this sea songs 😍
Shanties are BACK?
Were they ever gone?
The only time I’ll ever watch tik Tok is to listen to these people sing sea shanties
On behalf of the countryside , hunters and poachers thank you for this beautiful music
Makes me want to play AC: Black Flag again.
Omg this I couldn't believe his voice it's perfect
Sea shanties are taking over 2021 i love it
Awesome guys very well done 👍😊🙏💚
It's done...now I have to listen to shanties the whole day
This is amazing.
I’m loving all of it😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️✨✨✨
Wow, Nathan , you are perfect. I wish you all the best, much success,from Germany...but where is Luke, the bass-voice?
I thought my small youtube channel about sea songs was unfashionable :D
Are we sure this guy isn't a voice actor for AC Black flag 😂🤣 amazing talent my guy 🔥👌
Finally a good use for tiktok
I wanna hear you do "Roll boys Roll" :D
Wow!! Very talented peeps
I thought i recognised those faces and voices @longestjohns at 3:30 been listening to them for years now and their sea shanting sea of thieves stream are always entertaining :)
00:57 chill...

This has a very Outlander vibe
2020: Come Hither Unto Me Brethren!
2021: Yarr!
This sea shanty trend is amazing lol
“....shave his belly with a rusty razor ...” !! No wonder they had to send press gangs out to force men to crew the old ships !
Now I'm thinking I shoulda joined the Navy instead of Marines
Never Again Volunteer Yourself.
Take it from me, you don’t want the navy unless you like working 16+ hours per day with no days off for months at a time.
@@mileshill7196 Yeah I was kind of joking. Proud to be a future marine. Not one yet but I am enlisted, a poolee to be exact
"Assassins Creed 4: Black Flag"
alright, ima need a full version of shanty all star right hugging now
the power of music is strong
No cap ive been listening to sea shantys since assasins black flag came out
Roll him in powder, and call him a donut
okay now I want a donut
Loving the Joy Division t shirt at 1.59 Ian Curtis would be proud.
I could go for a shanty version of Decades tbh
1:05 its amazing...

Thank you for your UPLIFTING songs from an Alaskan Commercial Fisherman 🙃THANK YOU BRETHREN ,,-,,,

thanks for listening! and thanks for the salmon as well 😁
Am I the only one who listens to the drunken sailor one and knows that they use the same tune as background music for spongebob??
Sea shanties the country songs of the ocean
It would make a lot of sense if the Buccaneers won the Super Bowl too
tom's got this one
Not going to lie... getting so tired of wellermen. I tried singing oak and ash and thorn in sea of thieves the other day and people were like "oh that's cool, do you know wellermen?" ... yes... but I have heard a million times in the last few weeks.
Love a good bass, not often you hear a proper one.
