What do we heave to? Shanty of the week! And what do we haul to? Shanty of the week! I heard the sailors say Whe hey! It’s the shanty of the week! Whe hey!
But I think he’s the only one standing, right? I was always taught that was the way to get the best sound while singing. So I thought his corridor was a good thing.

Sean has been one of my most favorite artists after playing Assasins Creed: Black Flag for the first time way back in 2013. Enjoyed watching both my favorite artists perform together. Please do more!
The balancing makes this video a true gem - not to mention all the talent on full display here. So glad there are passionate people still bringing this genre of music to life. Roll on, Johns!
Wonderful, this is beautifully blanced and a joy to listen to. This makes my heart soar. Thank you all for taking the time to do this. I hope you'll consider another song in a future.
Only one day and already 25k views. Good show me boys. It be a testament to yer talents. Carry on the good work. We be singing along with ya. Can't wait for the community wellerman. Thankyou all for keeping our spirits afloat.
I knew that this was going to be a fantastic video from the moment it started, as I couldn't help noticing how expressive Andy was being, even whilst reading chat during the RUclips premiere, as I always try to do on Wednesdays lately - and oh, how absolutely glorious he was!!
Saw this on my feed and absolutely lost it, hearing the familiar voice that'd accompany me on my sea travels in assassins creed in a youtube video by my favorite sea shanty singers is just a recipe for euphoria
This video makes me incredibly happy! So many wonderful voices and a new shanty to learn. I also got another video with Mr. Dagher this week with this, very happy about that.
Coming back to this after hearing Seán do it live as support for TLJ during their tour, what a surreal beautiful moment!
Same here ^^
Which show did you go to>
Even Sean's beard is practicing social distancing
lol
Saw this b4 it started playin....beard was 2st thing to see lmao 😂😂
Aw what you said made my day mate
O000
Mans got a respectable beard
This is the collab I've always wanted but never expected!
Exactly!
I didn’t know about the other person
Agreed
@@draztraz Sean dagher is the person that did 90% the shanties in assassins creed 4.
Same
This guy is the singer for those shanties in Black flag huh, thought the voice sounded familiar
Oh man thank you it was bugging me so much
And he did some shanties for AC3
He did 3, 4, Rogue, and Liberation, as well as some songs for Syndicate.
he has such a DARK voice with a minor tone.....its rather legendary
ah i see now
The shanty ...
Whe hey!
The shanty ...
Whe hey!
The shaaaaaa .... Shanty of the week!
Whe hey!
What do we heave to?
Shanty of the week!
And what do we haul to?
Shanty of the week!
I heard the sailors say
Whe hey!
It’s the shanty of the week!
Whe hey!
Now it’s stuck in my head again
WheHey!
Funny thing is, this IS the shanty for this week (9/7)
Omg the longest johns and the singer from black flag it's a dream come true
I knew I recognized the voice! I had to Google him to make sure lol. A voice as smooth as silk
@@bullypopful yeah!
@@hannahmeaker4595 Wait Sean is the guy from AC4?
@@theapproachingstorm2133 yes . Check his youtube channel it's very good content .
@@theapproachingstorm2133 yes! :D I wonder why he isn't credited properly
Really cool how Seán's voice automatically becomes the focal point purely by how its sound differs from the rest
3 of the Johns - we get these cool backgrounds
Andy - what do I get?
Johns - you get the corridor 😂
But I think he’s the only one standing, right? I was always taught that was the way to get the best sound while singing. So I thought his corridor was a good thing.
Haha! Poor Andy. Always draws the short straw 😝
It is so pleasing how the audio panning matches the position of everyone’s videos! 😍
Thank-you! Glad you noticed :)
@@thelongestjohns I heard you guys signed a record deal, congratulations!
I know! Isn't that grand
That handlebar mustache is radiating so much raw power.... why do I want to set sail for the Caribbean now?
A true Powerstache Matey. No wonder it sounds so majestic.
Literally watching Sean’s “Shanty of the Week” yesterday and I was thinking “What if he did a collab with TLJ?” And here we are! So excited!
Honestly, Same
same lol
Same.
Yarp
Same
Wow, Robbie pulling off some monster high harmonies there, gorgeous!
Robbie's high harmony is always great... but the note he hit at 2:07 gave me shivers! Fantastic work, me lads!
Oh yeah
Andy sings a great high harmony also 🎵👌
What an outlandishly cool crossover

TYSM! As my band/crew's resident shantyman, I was trying to learn this rendition but was having a hard time with the lyrics.
Robbie out here killing it with the highs.
I may be biased, as a fan of his work for nearly a decade now, but I feel every shanty is made better when Seán Dagher is part of it 💜💜💜
He has an amazing voice and it just feels right when he's leading the sea shanty.
THE MYTH HIMSELF!!
wow this one is really good !! we need more shanties with Sean Dagher.
If you check out his channel he has had a video teaching a shanty every week for the last 21 weeks.
@@seamusrichardson6011 thx the info ;)
@@seamusrichardson6011 More collaborations would be great
THAT MANS MUSTACHE CAN TAKE OUT TOKYO
TEACH ME YOUR WAYS
Man, Robbie's an absolute beast on this one. Y'all totally killed!
Seán Dagher brings so much emotion into the songs.
Sean's voice is awesome. The crossover everybody wanted but nobody expected
A dream team up of shanty men. This may be my new favorite shanty.
You guys should work with Sean more! your voices sound great together!
I love the HAUNTING shanties like this one.
Normies: “Infinity war is the most ambitious crossover ever!”
Legends:
No. We aren’t legends. We are just humans.
@@marclegum you sir are legend
In a world without limits, we may have been legends
It has occurred to me that a Walk Off The Earth/Longest Johns collab could be pretty neat.
there's something nostalgic about the voice of Sean Dagher
Assassins creed black flag may be where that nostalgia comes from
@@oofiousnien-thousand5923 I agree with that AC black flag is one of my favorites and the one that got me into shanties :3
amazing... simply amazing
im still not over how good this collaboration was. whoever is responsible, and to all who sang for us, Thank you.
Gorgeous song.
I thought this is was never possible
This is the best crossover Hands Down!
Sean has been one of my most favorite artists after playing Assasins Creed: Black Flag for the first time way back in 2013. Enjoyed watching both my favorite artists perform together. Please do more!
I close my eyes, and it's like I'm playing Black Flag again.
recognized Seán's voice instantly, still sounds as wonderful as ever
There definitely is room in this world for a LJ/Sean Dagher collaboraiton album
Now this is what I am talking about, just grand with me favorite shanty singers The Longest Johns.
The balancing makes this video a true gem - not to mention all the talent on full display here. So glad there are passionate people still bringing this genre of music to life. Roll on, Johns!
My 5 favorite shanty singers all in one video! Shanty of the Week yesterday, this master piece today. This was amazing!
Wonderful, this is beautifully blanced and a joy to listen to. This makes my heart soar. Thank you all for taking the time to do this.
I hope you'll consider another song in a future.
This is a legendary moment in sea shanty history
Music has done it again, bringing people together and uniting humanity. Keep at it Longest Johns (and Sean Dagher of course).
Only one day and already 25k views. Good show me boys. It be a testament to yer talents. Carry on the good work. We be singing along with ya. Can't wait for the community wellerman.
Thankyou all for keeping our spirits afloat.
Wow this was not something I was expecting to happen.
Sean Dahger and the Longest John's? A surprise to be sure but a welcome one
This is getting me so hyped for a colab' with other sea shanty singers, pretty please guys 🙏
I knew that this was going to be a fantastic video from the moment it started, as I couldn't help noticing how expressive Andy was being, even whilst reading chat during the RUclips premiere, as I always try to do on Wednesdays lately - and oh, how absolutely glorious he was!!
I can't stop hitting the replay button
I don't know why this hits me so hard. Such a good collab. So true, Sean Dagher is such a legend. 😭
And the award for the most Epic Shanty Band goes to.... THE LONGEST JOHNS!
The Longest Johns and Sean Dagher? It’s a miracle!
I read the title as ‘with @Sean’s Daughter’ and was just thinking ‘who is Sean?’
*pop * noice
Hyyyyyyyype!! So excited!
Sound great, gentlemen!
AYYY, I'm so delighted to see this! A video full of my favourite shanty-folk!
THIS IS A COLLAB IVE WANTED FOR SO LONG NO WAYYY
God bless Sean and his amazing voice
So nice to see them together.
Any chance this can get put onto Spotify? Would love to include this on my shanty playlist!
Same
Fantastic pls more with sean
Sean Dagher has an amazing voice, could you guys sing Sixteen Tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford?
Thats an obscure but great choice!
Dont think that really fits the Sea shanty schtick. Also its not really made for multiple voices
@@AlexSoetekouwProductions yeah I guess so but it’s a damn classic
Geoff Castelluci’s version of that song is rather good
Sean! About time we got a collab. Awesome!
Saw this on my feed and absolutely lost it, hearing the familiar voice that'd accompany me on my sea travels in assassins creed in a youtube video by my favorite sea shanty singers is just a recipe for euphoria
Andy's facial expressions always give my life! A pure joy to watch :D
oh i'm hype
Its amazing that when you guys sing the shanties I don`t stop listening till I know all the words.
Danke!
Ok, this is now my favorite one of these longest johns and friends.
Wow. So beautiful. Sean your voice is like molten gold.🌊
Excellent!
Awesome collaboration!
Looking at the likes , it's fair to say it's a win . Well done guys !
This video's making me feel like I'm playing Black Flag.. And I'm not complaining!
FINALLY I'm so excited!
Most ambitious crossover in history right here. Well done👏🏻
Lovely to hear men sing with heart!
This is awesome! I’ve always wanted to see the two greatest shanty channels get together!
I've heard these 5's voices more than my own in quarantine, never get sick of them
Awesome, more of these!
This is just straight up glorious
Beautiful.
I love listening to you all sing, I feel the low voices in my chest
Amazing as ever guys, keep it up!
my favorite musicians all singing together.... AMAZING!!!
They got Sean Dagher, cool af.
I've never been more addicted to something than this. Amazing work from the masters of shanties.
Such beardly goodness to accompany fantastic voices!
Very on board with Andys spirited performance. This is really great. Adequate at its best.
Sean, unexpected but a welcome surprise!
Amazing senior’s voice. Amazing job as always you guys. Great
more of this please XD
This video makes me incredibly happy! So many wonderful voices and a new shanty to learn. I also got another video with Mr. Dagher this week with this, very happy about that.
I knew this was gonna happen eventually. I commented on one of Sean's videos that he should collaborate with you all, and he replied "Spoiler Alert"
an inevitable collaboration really, I'm so glad these people know eachother!
So hauntingly beautiful
I cannot unhear the fact that the song's verses sound a lot like Old Mauwi. Excellent song by the way😁
Without hearing this I never would've never realized how great everyone sounds together
Oooh, this is great! Your guest has a wonderful voice and then you fill the whole thing out.
Excellent stuff!
wow, perfection (ADEQUATE!) would be great to see you all at a gig together. Really powerful collaboration.
