Fun Fact: This video is the first to showcase the accurate colour palette of England. :)
palette !!!!!!!! >:(
Say you've never been to England without saying you've never been to England
@@thesegundovolante fucking London area, then...
lmao
Fun fact: Why am I here?
So, when Dave forgets to colour his nails, all colour goes out of the world?
He's too powerful
Dave colors his nails?
@@fandyus4125 Well I've always assumed he painted them with nail polish, but given TLJ's reply, I'm wondering if there is a more supernatural explanation :)
@@tfrtrouble Has he always had that? Because the one vid I've seen it on, it looked more like he injured himself but idk
@@fandyus4125 lol Well at times they're multicoloured, so working on the (unproven) assumption that he's merely human, I'd say he sometimes paints them.
Aaaaaand we have a new favourite!
Glad to see you’re a Longest Johns fan, Colm.
So true!
The man, the myth, the legend
Same!
@@reallysmallbird maybe a long john?
I don't know why, but it makes me laugh every time they cut to Dave not doing anything but just sort of vibing. It's like he's the one kid who doesn't say anything during the class presentation, he just stands up there with the rest of his group and nods.
remember when in oak and ash and thorn they gave him a stick and he just kinda stood there holding it
@@clarabeara69 How could I forget?
Lmao
He wasn’t JUST holding the stick he was using it to play the planet as an instrument
@@thelonelyirishman1916 ah, yet another reader of the best comment on the platform.
Imagine a Moby Duck music video where you guys are fighting a huge inflatable duck on a lake
Or maybe just being chased by a normal sized duck.
I need this.
@@samhill6444 Or being chased by a normal-sized duck that's made to look massive with camera tricks and maybe VFX
Just finished watching the Four Hours video and read the comment of someone requesting this, what great timing
Hooray, well timed
The artist makes the simple spectacular: The Longest Johns turn a studio into an aquarium and us into fishes (equipped with appropriate fish-eyes), JD's shed wall into a comedy theatre, the Tyndale monument into Mount Rushmore, a forest into a cathedral, a car into a stage, a field of flowers into an ocean, cardboard boxes into a ship, a veranda into a deck, their own studio into a galley, the sheddy into a hold, and the local harbour into cold Greenland. I love your magic, Johns!
When you get in the shower and the water is still too cold and hits your back: 1:54
It's funny, I've been listening to this song for the whole week, nonstop and now there Is I a music video!
Same happened to me when their fish in the sea music vid came out!
i mean like, bonny do be shippin' the diamond tho
Indeed!
?
XD
Another one off the faves list that's been given a music video WOOT!
Hooray, working through them eventually
The internet: "Noooooo, you can't just play super cheerful and super depressing songs one after the other!"
The Longest Johns: "haha, "Cures What Ails Ya" go "brrr"!"
I cannot tell you the elation I feel every time I'm listening to a playlist and I hear 0:01 I'm never not in the mood to listen to this song.
It's a very iconic be-dunk
I have become obsessed with this song over the past few weeks. It's SO much better when you know all the words and can sing along. Thank you once again, you sweet, sweet boys.
Agreed. It's one of our favourite shanties. This is a beautiful version.
Favorite song of the album
It's quite the banger
Andy's part is AMAZING in this video!
It's a goodun
@@thelongestjohns :D
Andy’s bit is my favourite!
Lush! Hope you had a pint at the Lamplighters, lads.
Always have to replay the bit at 2:38 because of how clean the harmony is
Especially the chord on "Name". I'm guessing it's a shift from minor to Major?
goosebumps!
@@beavermos absolutely love that spot to!
THE BIGGEST OF BANGERS
w00p! Glad you enjoyed
"Ok guys, let's all wear dark clothes for this one."
Robbie: "You're not my boss! I can do whatever I want!"
Yesss! A music video for one of my favorite song! Now I can't wait for mody duck😏 that would be a fun one!
It'll happen...
@@thelongestjohns I'm not sure how you guys would go about visualizing that, but I know you'll find a way. Animation, mayhaps?
I love Dave up the tree with his whistle
I have heard uncounted parodies or filks of Bonny Ship the Diamond. But for some reason have no recollection of ever hearing the original before. Top notch guys.
Dave is killing it on that pennywhistle
Adequatober 10th again! Thank you Johns!
The finest of dates! Thank you :)
I'm crying this is one of the first folk songs I ever heard as a boy and has remained one of my favorites ever since... this one and johnny jump up. If you guys sang that one too I'd die happy
I am glad to see that you were able to acquire one whole drummer :)
Dave hanging out in trees is becoming a theme. 🌳 Great video, as usual!
Just when I finally got it out of my head, it's back to stay.
You've done it again, lads :)
Amazing video for one of my favourite songs. C Y A next bandstream guys.
My favourite song of all time gets a music video? Good day indeed.
Ooh, Dave is so painfully cool here you could almost forget his massive nerdy streak 😆
Ps but we love the nerd bit too
I spend 3 whole days singing songs like this one with friends, for fun ('cause we are not really good singers lmao), and honestly, it is one of the most satisfying thing to do! You guys must really enjoy your life x)
The great thing about being a shanty singer is that if a song gets stuck in your head you just sing sing along with it
Ooooh, who are the new bass(or maybe cello?) and drum players?
They play with us for live gigs, their names are Rich and Antonio
@@thelongestjohns Ah, thanks for letting me know! Great video by the way!
It’s a bass they said in their Andy and the technicolor stream coat stream that they got a new double bass player
Shout out two the two dudes in the back. Never mentioned but recognition deserved
Yasss this is one of my favorites
Hooray!
Just thinking about this today! Super excited since this is one of my favourites!
Hope you enjoyed!
@@thelongestjohns I sure did! 😊
After I learned the guitar part to this it's become my single favorite thing to play
Sweet light strings of Arcadia. That was great
This song has been one of my favorites
I have been WAITING for this.
I don’t have a witty comment, I’m just commenting so the algorithm boosts the video
YESSSS!!!!
you guys are the best
My grandchildren loved this! Used to live in Avon.
That flute tho
One of my new favorites
Brilliant!
- Fantastic! Love your tones, they linger in the mind and soul. "We All Lift" always shakes me to the core.
these guys deserve 1 mil. subs,
I don't know how this thought entered my mind... but you guys should totally collab with Weird Al Yankovic.
It would be glorious
Yes please
YES BOYS. One of my absolute all time fav's. Was singing this along with my Dad today as we drove from London to Leicestershire to move me back home (a decision partly inspired by Oak & Ash & Thorn).
This is basically one of my top favs from Cures What Ails Ya, and probably of all time.
love how this sea song manages to be bluesy
I cant even express how hyped up i was when i saw this in my recommended. ive been wondering and waiting for this and i love it
Adequate! I won’t lie, Robbie does look good with grey hair, even if it is just the selective coloring effect
I can't imagine Robbie looking bad with any hair colour tbh, he has that power
@@spacemaria_ excited for purple Robbie :D
No dude they painted the whole word gray what effect are you talking about
When will you do a South Australia music video? It's my favorite, and there's no videos of you guys performing it that I can put in a playlist :C
It's not one we do very often to be fair. We'd like to work on a new arrangement for it
@@thelongestjohns Ah. ok! :)
Nice to see my favourite get a music video. Cheers Johns!
Just Played it on guitar... Great Song! ❤️
Thank you! I've been waiting for this since before Health to the Company, Got No Beard, Four hours, Oak and Ash and Thorn, etc.
One of my favorite shanties, and now my new favorite way to listen to it
This is my favourite shanty well done John John and the other John!
I'm always so happy when the harmonium comes out. One of my top two instruments, along with the hurdygurdy.
Now I want the lads to do a colab with Patty.
absolute jam
The Longest Johns creates yet another amazing music video! Never heard this song before but i can already see it as a favourite
Even the video length is perfect :D
They didn't have to do that, but they did.
A country-esk sea shanty? This cowboy pirate is happy.
Whoa whoa whoa who are the two new guys?
They are Rich and Antonio they play with the band at gigs
Another wonderful music video! Was also great to see Rich and Antonio added in there as well!
Great! .... But why don't the drummer and bass player not get named in the credits?
from just the audio alone (tho this music video is also lovely) this is the sexiest cover of this song, especially with that bass
I’m so glad my favorite song finally got a music videos
Looks likes “Wellerman” has some competition.
For best video? For sure, but the songs have both been out for more than a year
Wellerman has had competition for ages now.
@@unamusedrowlett6303 what’s the competition’s name?
@@grimoireweiss6428 Personally, I love Haul Away Joe. Also, Santiana/Santiano are great too.
I love the upbeat singing in this song and I love to sing along!
Yes It's out! I'm so hyped for my current favorite! 💙💙💙
Always been one of my favourites and I love the video. knowing what happened to the diamond really makes this song hit different though
I always have a hard time picking a favorite song from each album, but this one is definitely up there!
Man, I have this on loop, and it never gets old. Lots of depth to the music, and I really like that!
I really like the colour effects here!
I dig the color mask guys my little film brain went crazy when I saw it
Big props to the editor for the insane rotoscoping! Hope you give them a bonus, I'm tired just looking at it
One of my favourites, nice to have a music video now :)
Annoying my coworkers by singing Sugar in the Hold louder than the machines we work on finally paid off!
The contrast of everything but you guys being in greyscale looks pretty damn cool.
1:52 That woop is my favourite part of the song xD
I got some really bad news today and this gave me something to smile at. I love it as always!
Love the black and white attire mixed with the desaturated background. Congratulations on aquiring a rythm section! How about introducing them to us?
I love you guys so much! I have so much fun listening to these songs! Keep doing what you love! I'll pour some black rum and jam to y'alls beautiful voices!
Really cool video for one of my favourite songs from you. Much love ♥
It's our pleasure! Glad you enjoyed
YES
FINALLY
New band members approved... I have always loved your instrumentation on this one lads!
I was kinda secretly hoping you'd do this one, I had been listening to yous on spotify and this is one of my faves
Oh wauw I like this music soo much thx guys
Cheer up me lads! Let your hearts never fail!
First time I heard this song was by Gaelic Storm, and this has just made me love the song even more.
Love this song it’s so nice to see it get a music video! Adequate work as always!
One of my favourite songs on the album, thanks for the music vid!
1st knew of the song from the Corries and Wolfstone, but you guys do it proud. Hats off gentlemen.
The harmonies give me goosebumps every time! (But can we all appreciate what a cool double bass that is?????)
I've watched this video over so many times between how much I love the song itself (JD's funky guitar riff & Dave's glorious bass voice in the background, ooh.. it's one of my all time favorite LJ's songs to listen to!
