I'm a professional realtime captioner (constantly being told that computers are on the verge of replacing me) who's been a massive sea shanty fan for like 30 years and this video is basically the best thing I've ever seen. So impossibly satisfying and vindicating. THANK YOU!!!!
Not sure what to find more impressive: the harmonies (which, as a musical moron, appear to me as some kind of sorcery) or your managing to get through this without collapsing into fits of giggles. Those are some serious skills.
The Longest Johns should sing a famous shanty on April fools day but instead of posting the real song they should only post the RUclips captions version being sung
Even better: drop an original song but only the misheard lyrics, and when the comments have successfully deduced what the actual lyrics must be, drop the actual song.
Funnily enough, those are two of the four Norse Gods mentioned pretty much on a daily basis. Saturday is for Saturn. Sunday is, what else, for the sun. Monday is for the moon. Tuesday is the day of Tyr. Wednesday means Wodans day, another name of Odin. Thursday is the day of Thor. Friday is the day of Frigg, Odins wife.
You guys should do: "The Longest Johns sing The Wellerman but every 30 seconds the lyrics switch to the auto generated lyrics from the previous 30 seconds."
As an additional note, in "Liza Lee" in this video, when they sing "whole way, how are you most um" RUclips has now changed it to "oh way how are you most DUMB"! LMAO!! Oak & Ash & Thorn was great too!
What if you take the autogenerated captions from this video and make a cover on it, and then you take the captions from that video and cover it, and then you keep going until you descend into madness
The Liza lyrics are so impressively bad... and so hilarious to hear... great tongue twisting gymnastics on that one! Kidos Dave. And tears of laughter throughout... thanks all around!
I'm slightly salty because you guys always manage to time the releases just before I have to leave for work. XD But I'm also immensely happy that there's a new LJ video.
Tis best to enjoy this by enabling RUclips autocaption on this very video, and have fun with spotting the places where RUclips can't even autocaption itself.
From what I got Wellerman: A neighbor owns a ship, whales like playing soccer (football for ye) Eliza Lee: Beef burgers Oak & Ash & Thorn: If you say no, Thor will dash after you Rutherford Park: Referred park Johny come down the hilo: "What's the last bit again?" Pay me my money down: Babies
My only saviours from complete lyric misunderstanding are the people who write lyrics in the comments. Although I fear these lyrics may be forever stuck in my head now 😅
Having been listening to you guys on spotify in the background while playing games... And then bumping into this, I've never laughed so much to music before!
not sure you did one on Bones in the Ocean, but here's some bad autogenerated subtitles oh I bid farewell to the port and the land and I paddle away from brave England's white sands to search for my long ago forgotten friends to search for the place i hear all sailors and at the souls of the dead fill the space of my mind I'll search without sleeping till peace I can find I fear not the weather I fear not the sea I remember the fallen do they think of me when their bones in the ocean forever will be plot a course to the night to a place i once knew to a place where my hope died along with my crew so i swallow my grief and face life's final test to find premier soft peace and the solace of rest as the souls of the dead fill the space of my is then after like children there beckoning chaste my heart longs to join them sing songs of the sea i remember the fallen do they think of me when their bones in the ocean forever will be when at last before my ghostly shipmates i stand i shed a small tear for my home upon land though there i speak of deaths filled with struggle and strife their smiles below say i dont own them my life as the souls of the dead fill the space of my eyes and my boat listed over and tried to capsize im this far from drowning this far from the sea i remember the living do they think of me where my bones in the ocean forever we'll be now the time staring down at the darkest abyss im sure what i want but i dont think its this her as my comrades call to stand fast and forge on i make sail for the dawn until the darkness has gone souls of the dead live forever in my mind as i live all the years they left me behind i'll stay on the shore but still gaze at the sea i remember the fallen and they think of me for us holes in the ocean together will be i remember the fallen and they think of me for us holes in the ocean together will be [Music]
This was the best thing I've ever watched 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣also I love all of your shantys as their always the best and are amazing. keep up the amazing vids.

Until computers are able to simulate a world in their heads your job is safe.
This is really nice to hear as a current stenography student

The magic of editing is a lovely thing indeed...that or they could've gotten the giggle fits out of their systems first.
I can't decide if "say no and dashing Thor gets us" is awesome or terrifying, but I love the visuals.

@@LocketShoru that's... evil genius, i like it
@@LocketShoru love it!!👍🏻👍🏻
yass
Of all the Gods who wield great power
, Old Midgard to adore
; Greater are none beneath the sun
, than Odin and Frey and Thor
;)
Loki, he hates mankind and waits, 'til every trick be heard,
To cast mischief on heads forthwith that anyway trusts his word.
Oh please finish the lyrics! Please!!! :)
This is awesome! You should take these, and finish writing them! That'd be amazing!
Sing Odin, Frey and Thor good jarls, all from the Ragnarok Hall; Surely skalds sing of no little thing with Odin, Frey and Thor!

I laughed so hard at "Clear away the chocolate, let the bull join bun." Thanks lad for this hilarious video. Love you lot!
This is definitely me when I'm trying to listen to a song for the first time, but still want to sing along
This reminds me of the Facebook group: "A group where we speak gibberish and pretend to understand each other"
Sounds like me and my little sister the moment one of us stutters or stammers during a verbal bout.
Which is fun.
You guys should do:
"The Longest Johns sing The Wellerman but every 30 seconds the lyrics switch to the auto generated lyrics from the previous 30 seconds."
Thank you Buckley
Eliza Lee is just nonsensical, still love it though.
"Oak and ash and THOR" has me screaming. Please do more, I'm begging you!
2:45 when the technical challenge on bake-off just says "make it"
"Clear away the chocolate, let the bull join bun" From one bad diet to another.
Oh my gosh he has an Optimus Prime shirt that's so awesome. Pirate Optimus
As an additional note, in "Liza Lee" in this video, when they sing "whole way, how are you most um" RUclips has now changed it to "oh way how are you most DUMB"! LMAO!! Oak & Ash & Thorn was great too!
"No ganache inform"
Look, if you're not bringing anything to the party, you can just tell me that without bursting into song.
Giggling like a child at this at 2AM. Thanks boys, times is tough and I needed this.
What if you take the autogenerated captions from this video and make a cover on it, and then you take the captions from that video and cover it, and then you keep going until you descend into madness
Boomer media: 'AI' will destroy us in a few years.
Meanwhile AI: *Writes these wonderful lyrics *
“To Rashid our town below” Dear gods, that was a bad time to take a drag off of my cigg. Got me dying over here, lads! 😂🍻
The Soulja boy "youuuuu" absolutely killed me
Props to the editor, as they doubled the hilarity of auto-captions with silly and perfectly timed visual elements.
"Carraway the checker medical shine run" Somebody call an ambulance, the Auto Subtitles are having a stroke.
POV: you are listening to the longest john's after a night of drinking
I've never had a captain come at me with a spa! How refreshing!!
1:29 “clear away the chocolate let the bull join bun”
Pure poetry lol
I want this video to be the first shanty video for someone and see how confuse they get
I just posted it many non shanty discords
Your reactions to the ridiculous captions have got me rolling. 🤣
Some of these are kinda trippy to listen to, knowing the actual lyrics and hearing something that sounds similar but doesn't *quite* match up
Was not ready for Andy to stare into my soul, and question whether I was his son...
Oh my, I’m cracking up here! Thank you so much for making this video exist!
Oh my goodness this is so HILARIOUS! 😂😂 Love your goofiness, you're natural comedians. Miss Dave.
The Liza lyrics are so impressively bad... and so hilarious to hear... great tongue twisting gymnastics on that one! Kidos Dave. And tears of laughter throughout... thanks all around!
"They tax the tea"
Bastards.
I can't believe you skipped the gem of "you know ganache inform"
Oak and Ash and Thor is my favorite song
My ribs hurt after watching this. Awesome guys. Badly-needed levity over here in the States.
How is it possible that you are able to remain serious? I cried with laughter when I tried to sing with you. Absolutely hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
This is one of the greatest videos on RUclips. Very creative, and hilarious.
i'd love to see a sea shanty written by an AI. feed all the lyrics into an AI and see what it churns out
YES!
Oh my God I'm DYING. This is hysterical, thanks for the laugh! Love you guys!
I'm slightly salty because you guys always manage to time the releases just before I have to leave for work. XD But I'm also immensely happy that there's a new LJ video.
My favorite is definitely "Baby or go to jail"!
I forgot how much I loved the first one. Such a phenomenal sequel!
I can already feel that this'll be amazing
I love that you guys can both provide excellent music and make me snort with laughter.
Definitely want to see this with Hoist Up the Thing
"No ganache inform" I'm DEAD hahahaha! Oh my goodnesss! You tried, RUclips...
bull in a bun, that's just a hamburger! :D
Let's raise a glass to the RUclips Caption generator. Couldn't have done this without it.
ah yes, my favorite song: no ganache inform
Its a miracle! When you sang the incorrectly translated words this time, translate gave the correct ones! 🤯🥳☠
Laughing through the whole video
I love that "sugar and tea and rum" lasted for a round
Good lord this just made my day, Thank you lads!
Oh boy, I needed that, I'm in tears, so brilliantly done as well.
ive never felt more happier to sing along to a song in such a long time.
Tis best to enjoy this by enabling RUclips autocaption on this very video, and have fun with spotting the places where RUclips can't even autocaption itself.
The captions for this video are even funnier than the captions for the music videos
Having the captions on for this videos is even funnier...
Laughing so hard I am crying. You're all breathtaking.
This made my morning just with the sheer amount of laughs I got
i fully expect these guys to hit 500k by 2022
From what I got
Wellerman: A neighbor owns a ship, whales like playing soccer (football for ye)
Eliza Lee: Beef burgers
Oak & Ash & Thorn: If you say no, Thor will dash after you
Rutherford Park: Referred park
Johny come down the hilo: "What's the last bit again?"
Pay me my money down: Babies
I’ll see wellerman In my recommended sometimes and every time I listen to it it makes me want to play sea of thieves really bad
ANOTHER VIDEO I love this
So I live in the US and when I saw 3:37 I was so confused that JD could drive and play guitar. Then I realized oh right the UK does it lefty XD
I just had to go and play the videos again with cc on. You’re right. Hilarious.
no matter how, when or where, suddenly hearing oak&ashþ somewhere will always hit different
My only saviours from complete lyric misunderstanding are the people who write lyrics in the comments. Although I fear these lyrics may be forever stuck in my head now 😅
4:00 Maybe my buddy is down 😔
I've always wondered what was up with those crazy subtitles, haha
High quality content.
You're telling me that wasn't the right lyrics! Shoot, guess I have been singing them wrong this whole time
No joke; I thought _Oak and Ash and Thorn_ was "Oh Kardashian thorn" or something like that first time I heard it xD
Watching the auto captions on THIS video gives a very meta and layered experience
Waiting for the bad subtitles album
I'M ROLLING WITH LAUGHTER THESE ARE TOO GOOD
Having been listening to you guys on spotify in the background while playing games... And then bumping into this, I've never laughed so much to music before!
I cracked up at 'Miss Soulja Boy'.
0:58 I already heckin' lost it!
This is great, you should do more
not sure you did one on Bones in the Ocean, but here's some bad autogenerated subtitles
oh I bid farewell to the port and the land and I paddle away from brave England's white sands to search for my long ago forgotten friends to search for the place i hear all sailors and at the souls of the dead fill the space of my mind I'll search without sleeping till peace I can find I fear not the weather I fear not the sea I remember the fallen do they think of me when their bones in the ocean forever will be plot a course to the night to a place i once knew to a place where my hope died along with my crew so i swallow my grief and face life's final test to find premier soft peace and the solace of rest as the souls of the dead fill the space of my is then after like children there beckoning chaste my heart longs to join them sing songs of the sea i remember the fallen do they think of me when their bones in the ocean forever will be when at last before my ghostly shipmates i stand i shed a small tear for my home upon land though there i speak of deaths filled with struggle and strife their smiles below say i dont own them my life as the souls of the dead fill the space of my eyes and my boat listed over and tried to capsize im this far from drowning this far from the sea i remember the living do they think of me where my bones in the ocean forever we'll be now the time staring down at the darkest abyss im sure what i want but i dont think its this her as my comrades call to stand fast and forge on i make sail for the dawn until the darkness has gone souls of the dead live forever in my mind as i live all the years they left me behind i'll stay on the shore but still gaze at the sea i remember the fallen and they think of me for us holes in the ocean together will be i remember the fallen and they think of me for us holes in the ocean together will be [Music]
Congratulations on hitting 200 thousand subscribers i just noticed that.
I thought it was bad lip reading at first... but this is just as good!
Hey longest johns your about to get a huge influx of followers congrats
Oh my god I'm losing it, this is so good! XD
RUclips can't make accurate auto captions so they had to take out all the comments on music so that way no one could prove them wrong
When you make butchered subtitles sound amazing.
The best part is yet to come, the Auto CC for this video is STILL horridly wrong and hilarious.
This is absolutely hilarious1 Keep up the good work mates! (No matter if the lyrics are right or not ;))
This is how i sing their song LoL😂
Another hilarious evening ahead! :):)
This was the best thing I've ever watched 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣also I love all of your shantys as their always the best and are amazing. keep up the amazing vids.
1:16 eliza lee ft. banks of the lee
Even with these new lyrics these songs are still great
I thing RUclips need upgrade for the subtitle for dealing the fast type song
Now turn on captions for this video! Lol
Good god I think my soul tried to leave my body laughing at this 😂
