It tickles me that Colm would have no problems singing a song by a woman in first-person and referring to himself as a "she" for the lyrics, but he wouldn't be caught dead calling himself a british sailor. That's how you know he's a true Irishman.
An interesting fact about sea shanties for you is that, as well as obviously being morale boosting, many of them were designed to keep time for general tasks around a ship such as hauling lines, rowing, etc, things that had to be done in unison. Thats why you'll normally hear that they have very regular tempos with heavy emphasis on certain words equally spaced. For example in this one it's "We'll RANT and we'll ROAR like true BRITISH sailors, we'll RANT and we'll ROAR along the SALT sea" There's emphasis on those beats because thats where the work mark would be for pulling, rowing, etc
"Carbonated" is somehow the perfect way to describe Colm's bass 😂 Edit: Also awwh why didn't you like Black Flag? I felt it was really a great game, but would love to know your reasoning!
Spanish Ladies was a British Sea Shanty written during the Napoleonic Wars. They are leaving the Spanish ladies to sail to England as Spain had joined Napoleon and it was to be war.

Sean has some amazing vocals and some of the most immaculate face foliage I've seen
This is the shanty that quint sings in the movie jaws. Well, the first verse anyway. 🙂 loving these reactions. Really fun. Cheers 🍻
Sea Shanties will never not be a thing. They might wax and wane, but they're eternal.
Absolutely
I somehow missed this, now it will be on repeat

I hated traversing via ship haha.
Three legends before us today
I love that The Longest Johns was the first hit when you googled the song! Their version is a lot less dramatic than this one, but very very good too.
Black Flag is the best AC game
Yo I Met Them Before & They're Awesome!😊
