- LYRICS -
There once was a ship that put to sea
The name of that ship was the Billy o' Tea
The winds blew hard, her bow dipped down
Blow, me bully boys, blow (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go
She had not been two weeks from shore
When down on her
a right whale bore
The captain called all hands and swore
He'd take that whale in tow (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go
Before the boat had hit the water
The whale's tail
Came up and caught her
All hands to the side, harpooned and fought her
When she dived down below (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go
No line was cut, no whale was freed
An' the captain's mind was not on greed
But he belonged to the Whaleman's creed
She took that ship in tow (huh)
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go
For forty days or even more (ooh)
The line went slack then tight once more
All boats were lost, there were only four
And still that whale did go
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go
As far as I've heard, the fight's still on
The line's not cut, and the whale's not gone
The Wellerman makes his regular call
To encourage the captain, crew and all
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go
Soon may the Wellerman come
To bring us sugar and tea and rum
One day, when the tonguing' is done
We'll take our leave and go

Actually it’s 1860-1870
The bassman's voice is absolutely amazing!
Yep!
His name is Bobby Waters / Bobby Bass if you want to see more that he's done!
They say Tenor 2s are the most important part of male A capella but nothing beats a kick ass bass to set the tone
@Barack Obama, I'm pretty sure Bobby does bass, but you could be right!
@Barack Obama they both have the bass imho
all the basses on tiktok finally collaborated and i love it
Its a stolen song from the original guy tho.. actually so stupid. they even called themselves wellerman omg lol

The bass voice is really a BASS. The best version so far.
Luke and Bobby are amazing bass singers
"The bass voice is really a BASS" - you can't say it better👍
If you like bass singing you have to listen to their song "Hoist the Colors"! that's crazy!
@@hurarrei es de gustos, este cover resalta el bajo muy bien por ser voz de pecho, pero en el de hoist the colors algunos de ahí hacen fry y subarmonics una especie de falsete de bajo.. es ahí donde no se escucha lleno el bajo, más bien seco..no son bajos naturales
@@AlvaroMper
Falls es Google richtig übersetzt hat und ich es richtig verstanden habe:
Es wurde bei „hoist the colors“ elektronisch nachgebessert?
Das würde ich sofort glauben da der Bass Gesang echt beeindruckend ist.
Me : Hates tik tok
Tik Tok : sea shanties cover
Me : I’ll allow it
its not all cringey dances and stuff. some of the dances are actually good! key word: some. like when they have the fancy lights and shit or theyre in a cool cosplay
I am the exact same, if only it was all like that
yes
It depends on which side of tiktok you on
true.
The guy with the bass voice....that is incredible. He’s almost throat-singing, Mongolian style. The way all of you harmonise is amazing. Congrats on being #1 in Germany 🇩🇪😁
Hallo

I'm not a singer, but I'm pretty sure this dude isn't using a throatsinging technique. Correct me if I'm wrong though.
Pro tip: listen to this while you’re doing your chores and instead of washing the floor you’ll be magically scrubbing a ship’s deck
How is that an improvement? Your still scrubbing.
@@lorenscott2925 it’s not but once you’re done you can finally get some sugar and tea and Rum
Omg
Pro tip 2: Listen to this while rowing on your rowing machine and you'll be magically rowing on the ocean!
"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.
This is my favorite rendition of this song, by far. I can't get enough of it.
The combination of voices is absolutely stunning!! All extremely talented vocalists.
Came here to say that. Great balance and perfect harmony. You could almost hear the harpoon line coil whipping as the whale went down.
Same these guys are amazing
Also it sounds like people on the ship is singing it not a 20 year old with Auto tune
Absolutely! A shame this version is not on spotify.
Edit: Neverminf, I just found it...
Scott Bradlee's piano version is fantastic, and I also love the version by Gingertail, but now I hear this, I love all three, can't decide which one I love most, but I'm going to go for Scott Bradlee.
"When girls talk to someone they like their voice gets higher"

You slap way harder than you need to
@@johnclarkeboy3643 damn right

I'm in awe of how expressive and charismatic the lead singer was here. He could keep up with singing and he was entertaining as hell to watch. Excellent work gentlemen, thank you!

Great!!!
The eyebrows have a life of their own.
He's awesome 😊👍
It’s just Jack Sparrows mannerisms
He's also an excellent actor and appeared in many musicals, seen him in London a few times
The bass guy is so satisfying
There are 2 basses in this bro 😎
Oh my mistake thank you
Reminds me of Jonathan Young

The bass voices in this are absolutely insane.
I wish 2 basses were a part of most things like this.
@@Thulgore bobby is a bari and luke is a bass
Basically 2 basses
@@taktoliYT Bobby might be singing bari but he is definitely a bass
Is it just me, or is the redheaded lumberjack-looking lead singer adorable? I love his expressions, voice, and that red beard! So cute! Good job to all the men for a great, catchy song.
They're ALL adorable!
The deep voices are so pleasant to hear. One usually thinks of high head voices as amazing, but these deeper tones are so rich and so beautiful.
One of the things I liked about Doctor Atomic (opera) was the emphasis on baritone and bass.
Im not even mad. As long as they sing sea shanties, tik tok can be tolerated.
Same
I agree
Honestly, I think the people hating on TikTok it's just hating the dances(dun blame them tbh) the other contents are quite good actually
Me: *Hates TikTok*
Also Me: *Listens to a good sea shanty from TikTok*
Me Again: It is....Acceptable

They all smashed it, luke and bobby especially stood out for me. Can't wait for more soon!
Its a stolen song from the original guy tho.. actually so stupid. they even called themselves wellerman omg lol
@@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.
@@tommyolsen2399 Like the first guy said, it's public domain. Also, according to Forbes (www.forbes.com/sites/micahhendler/2021/01/25/meet-the-wellermen-taking-tiktok-sea-shanties-to-the-top-of-the-charts/?sh=6e67296d210f) their attempt to collaborate with Nathan Evans "got lost in the maelstrom of messages that flooded Evans’ account over recent weeks."

I'm so happy to see Baritone guy here on this version. His cute little comment about being a Baritone to add to the 'richness' was so endearing.
Those harmonies gave me goosebumps. Wow.
Is it just me or does it all come together when having a bass layer underneath? That bass voice gives me the chills... in a good way!
(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)
@@calebfelten7195 i’m a very detailed oriented person so the little details matter to me about everything, and the bass really just makes this so good. that’s a very good analogy, make a lot of sense and i wish more people could look underneath the surface
@@calebfelten7195 I prefer this The Wellermen's version to The Longest Johns version precisely because it has so much lovely rich bass and extra baritone filler. Bass needs more love
@@kindigogo moarr bassssss
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

randy dandy o was my favorite shanty from black flag, so i'd love to see it!
Johnny leave her by these guys would make my life
Old Maui would also be great
Is this really 3 years old already?! Still my absolute favorite version of this song. Gorgeous sound.
Sam's charisma and Bobby's expressive eyebrows kick this song up a notch! Well done lads!
Can’t remember how many times I’ve listened to this song now😂😂
I started an hour ago and have already lost count
@Aaron Levinson Occasionally, I listen to it on Spotify instead. :-)
Me too
I keep track of my listening. This is number 2165. I also show it to everyone I know.....
i listen this evry day when i go to school
i set this song on repeat and i get to work
It's so odd to hear two basses on a quartet, and yet it brings such bottom and burliness to the sound! Way to go!
Odd to have a five piece quartet though.
@@JasperJanssen lol

I love it, way heavy on the bass, but really, can you ever have to much bass. Awesome Job Guys.
I like how the dude that looks all of 12 has the deepest voice.

I'm in love with the combination of voices. What a beautiful thing!
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!
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

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.
