I know a man who sings in a shanty choir in Husum, Germany. He was so sad because the choir mostly consists of elderly man and is almost literally dying out. I hope this isn't just a hype but will go on when people can sing together in real life again so that some young people join the choirs and help keep this beautiful tradition alive!

"Scrapping"?! Pretty sure you meant "scraping". Scrapping is what is done at the end of a ship's life. -Misspelling things isn't really a problem unless it changes the meaning and intent of a word. And on a ship, it isn't "scraping", either: It's called "holystoning", wherein a soft sandstone is used to scour the wooden decks of ships.
Sam (The verse singer) = He's the lead singer (Well, duh...) Aaron (The light-blue checkered shirt guy) = Tenor (?) Jonny (The red-bearded guy) = Baritone (Not bass, guys) Bobby (The other checkered shirt guy) = Bass I (The lead bass) Luke (The young-looking one using cap) = Bass II (He is the guy who actually makes the bass sounds thicker, that's why we can hear the bass clearly) The point is, "There are 2 basses because if there is only one bass singer, the sound will not be very audible (I used to experience it when singing a ca pella with my friends). After all, we like bass boosted songs, right? LOL XD"
No. Both of them are actually Bass 2's. I just learned about Luke but I've known Bobby and his content for more than a year now, through our low voice appreciations group in Facebook "Oktavism, Basstronomy, Choral". The man can definitely project a loud low C easily, even lower sometimes.
Bobby and Luke are in a bass double. They are singing the exact same part but Bobby’s voice is definitely more thick so if there were to be only one bass voice you would go with Bobby. However, they are both phenomenal
You get classified as a Bass I or Bass II based on your vocal range. A Bass II have a lower vocal range than a Bass I. Luke and Bobby are definetly singing the exact same thing and they have pretty similar vocal ranges because they're both Bass II.
Best version I've heard so far. You get a real feel for how it would have been sung by a ship's crew, back in the day. And the harmony is perfect. Excellent.
@@tommyolsen2399 It's a cover... not a stolen song. The original shanty is very old, they aren't claiming it to be theirs. It makes sense they call themselves wellermen considering thats what bought them together! but i understand where you are coming from.

Yes, the lead is amazing, and the bass is outstanding (both of the basses in fact)! But the soprano is also absolutely spot on, and I get goosebumps every time he goes up an octave to deliver the finishing blow (at 1:51). This take on the song is just simply amazing, and I can't get enough. Thank you!
(Coming from a true bass) Think of a song as a brick wall, everyone sees the wall and is like "That's a nice wall" but they forget that its actually a brick and mortar wall. The bass is the mortar along with the drums, but everyone appreciates the bricks (Guitars, Keyboard, anything not bass)

My 3 yr old grandson heard this for the first time, and was stopped in his tracks. Literally! He had to listen to it 5 times. He is half Irish. He is a very high strung hyper child and this song SPOKE to him. Everytime he hears it, he stops dead to listen to it several times.
Old-time sailors: We're cold and miserable, and probably sick, and everything stinks. Sea shanty: I've got your back. 2021 people: We're cold and miserable, and probably sick, and everything sucks. Sea shanty: awakens
Honestly pretty much the best version. Since it's recorded with proper mics and probably better mixed as well it's way more enjoyable with headphones than any other version :)
I get goosebumps everytime. The 5 of you have supercompatible voices. Each time the full sound comes in with the drums in the back and all of you singing it hits like a punch on a boxingsack! You guys made my pandemic times a lot better! Keep it coming, can't wait for more like this!!!
Heard a snip of this song on a Twitter video. Went searching for it and ran across The Wellermen. As part Irish, and as a vocalist myself, this song makes me want to embrace my Irish heritage even more. Good work, gents!
that high-pitched variation at the end of the song 1:50 is absolutely brilliant! it adds so much more nuance to the song, hats off to you sirs, nicely done!
I went to high school with him, dude's actually in college. What's funny is he had a super young voice until he was like 16 and it suddenly dropped to the core of the earth
Incredible! Sam's performance is absolutely captivating. The expressions, the actions, the singing... An absolute tour de force of performing arts right there! Bravo, ye salty dogs!
Thanks guys. As someone who went to music conservatoire and has been performing at a professional standard for 30+ years I have to say this is the best thought out and performed version of The Wellerman I've hard. I think it's fantastic for Nathan that he's achieved all he has. I'd urge you guys to stick together and keep doing fresh stuff - you have a great future ahead of you if you want it and you're prepared to put the work in :)
Ive listened to 5 versions of this song, and while tiktok isnt something i use, this (in my personal opinion) sounds the best for a actual shanty. Beat,timing , and vocals
My legs almost quitted working after attempting to do a 16/ 4 like sort of irish tap/ contemporary dance (I never lerned ,but I noticed people pulling their phones out) and singing along WITH A MASK FOR 1.5 HOURS! I was as happy as a pig in a clover field, it's been so long since I was so exhaused, I could barely breathe, punched my legs to stop shaking ( also having an eating disorder and maybe 88 lbs at 40 and 5.1) and desperatelay trying to go on . This was the most happy and exhausted and letting it ALL OUT In........ I don't know how much time !😭 2 years at least?
Every single person on this song needs to have people begging them to sing professionally. Sam, I gotta say I adore your obvious enthusiasm and the drama of your voice. I feel the theatre would love you if you've not done it.
I feel the same way to hear it cuz You jus feel like it needed that "like add a lil more girth but make it tasteful." Then when You hear it, You're like... "Poiiifect👌"
I cannot stop with this- from the original post a few weeks ago and some of the other awesome versions, but this one just blows me away. I got my wish! Great work guys!! The best thing I've heard in recent memory. More please!

Is this really 3 years old already?! Still my absolute favorite version of this song. Gorgeous sound.
Honestly pretty much the best version. Since it's recorded with proper mics and probably better mixed as well it's way more enjoyable with headphones than any other version :)
And also no high pitched female voices, i like most sea shanties without it
Nothing beats Nathan
girls: he probably out there cheating
me and the boys in the gulags:
He is cheating, with the boat.
If he is doing this without me it’s over
Woman: He's probably thinking of other maidens
Me and the fellow seafarers:

I get goosebumps everytime. The 5 of you have supercompatible voices. Each time the full sound comes in with the drums in the back and all of you singing it hits like a punch on a boxingsack! You guys made my pandemic times a lot better! Keep it coming, can't wait for more like this!!!
Heard a snip of this song on a Twitter video. Went searching for it and ran across The Wellermen. As part Irish, and as a vocalist myself, this song makes me want to embrace my Irish heritage even more. Good work, gents!
that high-pitched variation at the end of the song 1:50 is absolutely brilliant! it adds so much more nuance to the song, hats off to you sirs, nicely done!
Are you guys going to be doing more? Youre voices are out of this world
I love that the absolute bottom end of that bass is being sung by the guy who looks 12.
I thought the same thing!
He's such a boss it's bloody unbelievable. I hopr he'll make a career in music. Should be easy for him.
I went to high school with him, dude's actually in college. What's funny is he had a super young voice until he was like 16 and it suddenly dropped to the core of the earth
this dude is the definition of "Drop D".... and yes, I mean it in both ways
@@julianefigge7456 If I get the chance to I'll definitely consider it haha
Прослушал около 100 версий. Вокал, ритм, тембр - всё восхитительно. Для меня однозначно это лучшее исполнение. Спасибо!
Мне тоже именно этот вариант больше всего понравился.
Alina Gingertail с вами поспорит😅.
@@НФЗ-с8н согласен, поёт здорово, и постановка отличная, труда вложила много, но согласитесь, песня то мужская.
Натан Эванс с вами поспорит) Даниэла и Сантьяно тоже
15% main guy voice
10% light guy
10% lighter guy
10% normal guy
55% that hoarse guy
The real question is which one is which?
@@jacksauce the real problem is no 25% concentrated power of will
@@jacksauce the one with the yeti hat is the low voice. He's a basso profondo
No its 100% awesome
@@Dorddis I see
I like how the dude that looks all of 12 has the deepest voice.
He’s 19 apparently?
19 is just 12+7
He looked a lot older in the original tiktok version, heh.
How do you know which voice is which lol
@@enderplayer9722 By checking the links in the video description.
The official anthem of the next “pirates of the Caribbean movie”
I would love that sooo much!
I kept imagining capt Jack Sparrow when it says rum
Haha and they should get all these dudes and Nathan Evans and have them in a scene with Jack Sparrow singing this lol
What’s the point if they won’t give Johnny depp his job back. He’s the only jack sparrow
As long as they cast Johnny Depp 😊
Incredible! Sam's performance is absolutely captivating. The expressions, the actions, the singing... An absolute tour de force of performing arts right there! Bravo, ye salty dogs!
When I searched this up I couldn’t stop restarting every time so catchy
Same
same
Been blown away by this song and how well they performed. Please collaborate more guys, it’s a breathtaking performance
This absolutely stunning! Perfect. The sheer beauty of the harmonies can clear the stresses of any day. I am addicted, I listen many times a day!
The lead singer shows considerable acting talent. And so it is not only the singing that is a joy. Good job!
Is that meant to be hard he’s just making a few faces
@@phantom8699 also the gesticulation. He's actually very expressive, especially compared to the rest of them
He's channeling his inner Jack Sparrow occasionally!
Sam is absolutely great.
Check him out on Tik Tok: www.tiktok.com/@sampopemusic
Thanks guys. As someone who went to music conservatoire and has been performing at a professional standard for 30+ years I have to say this is the best thought out and performed version of The Wellerman I've hard. I think it's fantastic for Nathan that he's achieved all he has. I'd urge you guys to stick together and keep doing fresh stuff - you have a great future ahead of you if you want it and you're prepared to put the work in :)
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE... MAKE MORE MUSICS.
I'm in love with the combination of voices. What a beautiful thing!
Love this rendition!! Thanks! ❤️🇨🇦 The harmony is amazing!
1:30 the smoothness hits exactly the right spot
This is the best thing my ears have ever heard. If they cound they would be crying in joy 😂
My heart swells listening to this with headphones
I can tell ill be revisiting this video often
Its a stolen song from the original guy tho.. actually so stupid. they even called themselves wellerman omg lol
@@tommyolsen2399 They said it's the Tik Tok version of it in the tital so they just remixed it. Its not stolen at all it's just a mix up
@@tommyolsen2399 It’s a 150 year old folk song without a known songwriter. Anyone can make their own version of it.
Ive listened to 5 versions of this song, and while tiktok isnt something i use, this (in my personal opinion) sounds the best for a actual shanty. Beat,timing , and vocals
That man's voice is lower than my will to live. What an amazing version of the song. 😮
Infinity War got nothing on this crossover

@Say Sike Right Now aaaah ok
This is a MASTERPIECE ❤️⚓⚓⚓
Ahh yes another bass master☝️
このメンバーのウェラーマンを初めて聴いた時は、とても感動しました。他の方々も歌っておられますが、彼等最強！しかしなぜでしょうか？これを聴いていると、なんだかお酒が飲みたくなってきます。強いお酒がね。私ももっと英語を勉強して、これを歌えるようになったら最高だね！
There couldn't be a more perfect group for this song
Literally “The Longest Johns” has a cover of this song first and it’s good too...
@@wendingo1 yes but he said there couldn't be a more perfect group. This beat the longest John's anyday
@@connorwade651 not really but okay
@@What-lt3lj my opinion but ok
The guy who started the trend should have been on here imo
Luke's voice has its own gravity well.
Bahahah sooooo true!
Sam's like a storyteller, with an incredibly expressive face. Go those eyebrows!
he really catches your attention!
With the rings and basic mannerisms, I just think of a ginger jack sparrow
Hey Wellerfolks 👋
Our newest single “The Parting Glass” featuring Lauren Paley is OUT NOW!
Listen below ⬇️
thewellermen.lnk.to/PartingGlass
My legs almost quitted working after attempting to do a 16/ 4 like sort of irish tap/ contemporary dance (I never lerned ,but I noticed people pulling their phones out) and singing along WITH A MASK FOR 1.5 HOURS!
I was as happy as a pig in a clover field, it's been so long since I was so exhaused, I could barely breathe, punched my legs to stop shaking ( also having an eating disorder and maybe 88 lbs at 40 and 5.1)
and desperatelay trying to go on .
This was the most happy and exhausted and letting it ALL OUT In........
I don't know how much time !😭 2 years at least?
Wellermen! Please make a Skyrim cover
It blows my mind how people have voices that are literally so low.
Amazing job, these harmonies are ON POINTTTTT!!
Every single person on this song needs to have people begging them to sing professionally. Sam, I gotta say I adore your obvious enthusiasm and the drama of your voice. I feel the theatre would love you if you've not done it.
@Steven Parker Was that a compliment to them or not? Sounds like a bit of a snub....which is unnecessary if so.
Why do i feel like the main guys past life was a pirate. He does the part so well XD
Our New single "Nancy Mulligan" featuring Malinda & Cullen Vance is OUT NOW
Check it out:
thewellermen.lnk.to/NancyMulligan
HEYY
original was best. dont stray from the original melody. it is perfect
I beseech you, guys, pls, make a video for karoke, there are only nathan evans version, but yours is better
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Got damn, y'all elevated from a tiktok trend to straight up just a whole youtube quintet
Yup this is gonna be on loop
I never thought I'd be so impressed by a grunt but that HUNGH that he does at like 0:49 is fantastic
I feel the same way to hear it cuz You jus feel like it needed that "like add a lil more girth but make it tasteful." Then when You hear it, You're like... "Poiiifect👌"
Do you know his name? So i dont know and i wondered.
@@çizinci0607 bobby bass
@@art-diary thank youu
I love it, way heavy on the bass, but really, can you ever have to much bass. Awesome Job Guys.
I cannot stop with this- from the original post a few weeks ago and some of the other awesome versions, but this one just blows me away. I got my wish! Great work guys!! The best thing I've heard in recent memory. More please!
We have new music coming! Pre Order our single featuring The Longest Johns here : tenwest.ffm.to/onemorepull
Nice 👍
It would be really nice if the female vocals at the end there were credited, just saying.
❤❤❤😎😎😎😎cant wait
@@RockhoundAlchemy there weren’t any female voices in either
I can't express how thrilled I am that y'all collaborated to bring this together. A gorgeous rendition - which I am busily sharing far and wide.
Wyszło naprawdę super. Chętnie tego słucham jak tylko mam ochotę ;) Brawa dla was wszystkich!!!
I've been a shanty fanatic for many years, I'm glad to see them finally kicking off outside of niche circles now.
The main singer is putting out some massive vibes, ngl.
This is both incredibly soothing and invigorating at the same time. What is this -wizardry-?
2 years later and I can't stop listening. I grew up on sea chanties and this just hits deep in my soul. 💖💕 If y'all ever tour, I'm there.
Maybe 2021 isn’t all that bad after all with this gem 😶💯
