We'll surely avoid scurvy if we all eat an orange. Sadly they were stolen by the evil mister Gorringe. If he is returning, his crew had best beware, they'll surely get a churning, when we feed them to a bear. A pirate I was meant to be, trim the sails and roam the sea.

The part that had me really laughing is when Guybrush joins in; "You say you're nasty Pirates, scheming, thieving, bad bushwackers. From what I seen I tell you, you're not Pirates, you're just slackers!"
It’s one of the most charming games of all time haha. Superb art, great voice acting, delightful music. It was the worst decision they ever made to make the next edition a 3D game.
+Tom Holmes I think the idea is that there are almost no words that rhyme with "orange". As far as I can tell it's a semi-famous example of the english language. However, you're probably right that it would *also* be difficult to construct a verse with "door hinge" in it that isn't thoroughly out of place in the song.

"If you don't stop singing, I'll personally kill you all." "WHEN A PIRATE'S IN THE RIGGING, HE MUST TRY NOT TO FALL!" "Something something ORANGE!" "Er... shit."
+Garth Palmer Maybe it's kinda late, but this verse must be complete. And we must sail out, with a gigantic fleet A pirate I was meant to be Trim the sails and roam the sea.
And I'll keep singing on, no matter what you say This is a lovely song, coming well with good swordplay A pirate I was meant to be Trim the sails and roam the sea.
"We'll sweep up in the crow's nest and polish every door hinge!" "Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..." That would've been awesome. Forget the gameplay, that song was the best!
@@Uncle188 I'ts funny to see a comment from 7 months ago, after I commented this i've completely turned my life around from playing video games all day to going to the gym everyday and working on my business
When I played the game, it was in French, and it was not as good as the original version. This is so cool! Thanks for uploading this, it makes me want to play the game again, now that I have it in the proper language. (Fun fact: The voice of Guybrush in the French version was done by the actor that did the French voice for Disney's Aladdin animated movie. It was even promoted on the box... Fun fact: A long long time ago, games used to come in big, pretty, coloured boxes.)
Aye! This is one of the finest computergame series ever! And what a song. I have it on my brain all day - even if i forget the lyrics from time to time.

That red-bearded pirate is voiced by the same voice actor for Scrooge McDuck in Ducktales.
This video made me cry.. so nostalgic, I played this game everyday when I was a kid I loved it so much, made me realize that life passes by so fast.
its been more than decades and ive now decided to try and play these games because they seem awesome
i feel you bruuuhhhh
RIP Alan Young, a.k.a. Haggis McMutton / Wilburrrrrr / Scrooge McDuck
Thank you! I thought I recognised the voice!
This is probably the most charming scene in the whole game if you ask me. I love it.

If "pirate/fire at" is fine, then I guess "orange/door hinge" should also be okay!
+JackFou I think the point is less that there was nothing that could rhyme, but more nothing that would rhyme that could actually fit in the song.

It's 'fire it'.

"Wtf did i just do"
I seriously hope there's a re-release in the making for the 20th anniversary. I mean, c'mon.
they can only improve the games graphics but they can. they have to
But that would just ruin it....
Well, considering it's now property of Disney, who have expressed no interest in the series whatsoever... Probably not :(
Download ScummVM, you can play it with that
Just for the record, it just got a digital release at GOG.
Happy 13th Birthday to this video today ! I was just 9yrs when this was uploaded to RUclips. Feels almost unreal ...
"We'll surely avoid scurvy, if we al eat an orange!"
We'd love to but the taste just makes us cringe!
:D
Yarrr! We don't allow slant rhyme on this vessel!
+Fireball Dragon Please stop trying to force this fad. It just makes us viewers tearfully mad.
***** So, we'll "still" be doing this, you said?
But in a pirate's life there is no pointless wrestle
You'll have to fix the metre, but the rhyme is there ^^
one of the best games i ever played
Mine too
stop rhyming now, i mean it!
anybody want a peanut?
Haha!

Alright men, take out your sword.
All the enemies before us will be tossed overboard.
What he doesn't realize is they were just trying to train him in the art of rhyming.
