Robert Shaw sings (Farewell and adieu to you fair) "Spanish Ladies" 18 years before Jaws!

- "Spanish Ladies" is a traditional British naval song, describing a voyage from Spain to the Downs from the viewpoint of ratings of the Royal Navy.
Made famous by Quint (played by Robert Shaw) in Jaws (1975) as a goad to Hooper's anti-shark cage plan, Shaw sang the exact same song 18 years earlier when he starred as Captain Dan Tempest in The Buccaneers.
The Buccaneers clip shared via Nolan Philpott aka The Jaws Geek: • Robert Shaw sings Fare...

He really has that sea shanty voice.
booze and smokes will do that...but either way he was a great actor...
Robert Shaw was a fantastic actor. We lost him far too soon.
Yeah, it’s tragic how he collapsed in the middle of the road in toormakeady, Ireland.
I also heard that he had to hide money from the irs, so he made a deal with the movie producers, idk. I forgot about it.
Fuck yeah 😢
Amen to that...
I have him in my DNA.
Bostonian here.
the way he told the story of the uss indianapolis was pure genius best part of the movie
Great find. I bet Shaw introduced that ditty into the script.
I was just thinking this. It’s got Robert Shaw ad lib written all over it
The tune even made its way into the score
I think, it was the other way round. Spielberg knew "Buccaneers" and told Shaw: you did it once, now do it once more.
However, it's a great tune.
TUNE!!!!!!
He did introduce it. The original script does not have this song anywhere. What's even better is that I believe much of the entire score is derived from this song.
I sing this every time I go fishing
Haha, I do too when im setting my trolling lines
@@keithmatusek4724 I liked trolling myself but gas is too expensive these days. So now I just sit with live bait or I use hair jigs and go after walleyes
i humm the them song when spearfishing keeps you aware
Yet more trivia from the film. I had no idea Robert had already sung that tune in another film...
TV series (1956-1957). Captain Dan Tempest, good name for buccaneer😊. I remember watching it when I was 10!
Brilliant callback scene in Jaws! Let me guess, Mr. Robert Shaw probably improvised that also!🤔🤠
Think i read somewhere that he forgot his line and sang that instead. Cant imagine any line that could be an improvement for the scene. Its perfection.
So when he sings this song in 'Jaws' it's actually a call back! Brilliant😮
Wow! I've been a huge Jaws fan my entire life (it's my all-time favourite movie), and I'd never seen that clip from 'The Buccaneers' before. That really made my heart swell!
Don't feel bad bro 40 year jaws fan... i neber knew either
Just as Sir Alec Guinness will be remembered as Obi-Wan Kenobi , Robert Shaw will be remembered as Quint. Both high quality actors who should be remembered for their other work as well.
Like the taking of Pelham 123!
Sir Alex Guinness *himself* did *not* want to be remembered just for that role.
@@McLarenMercedes He had other great rolls, but like it or not, he will always be Obi-Wan , just like Sir Sean Connery will always be 007.
Brilliant! Just when you think you know everything there is to know.
Exactly, this just blew my mind.
Hahahaha
Fairwell and adiue to you spanish ladies fairwell and adiue you ladies of spain or we've recieve a order for the sale back to boston and soon avimor shall we see you again......RIP Rober shaw.....😢
We lost Robert the same year Jaws 2 released. I miss him so much❤
Robert Shaw was just a magnificent man. A true legend. He was such a confident, intellectual, intimidating, and outright brilliant actor and a truly fantastic writer. Watching this scene makes me tear up. I idolized all of the Jaws trio, but him most of all! Of all the great English actors in history, I'd want to go back in time and meet Robert Shaw the most
By all accounts, he would agree with you.
My mum met him, she was a young dancer at the time, he chatted her up a bit 😂 gave her some advice for the industry. He was as she used to say very charming.
@@20alphabet😂

^^ LoL
He was Irish ☘️
The fact that Shaw and Dreyfus hated each other on set always made it so much better😂
They may have rubbed each other the wrong way. That's a little different than hate.
That was blown way out of proportion as Dreyfus has mentioned in interviews.
I actually think they got along fine. Shaw was just breaking Dreyfuss' balls for being a spoiled brat about his career. Dreyfuss was bitching he could've been in New York getting praised for his performance in " The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz". Shaw used that to create the tension on the film
@@FJC464Added a "method acting" type of tension that's palpable in the film. Love it.
I have the DVD's and have watched every episode of the Buccaneers. My dad told me he used run home from school to watch it when it was on UK TV in the 50's. It was spine chilling the first time I heard Dan Tempest sing that tune. It features in multiple episodes. Jaws is my all time favourite film. I watch it every year on my Birthday. You can see where Shaw borrowed from his past for Quint.
God, I loved that show. It made an 8 year old boy want nothing more than to be a pirate. It also made me a lifelong fan of Robert Shaw.
Incredible acting check his eyes right before the scene switches absolutely physcotic love it
Love how there’s a deeper history to this song with Robert Shaw!
Every time I watch that jaws clip I get a big smile on my face 😂.
Magnificent. Shaw was such a likable bastard.
That's where he got that from awesome 👍 JAWS
The giggle at the end is what makes it perfect.
I had no idea he was referencing his own movie when he sang this on Jaws lol hilarious! Bobby Shaw was one of a kind!
R.I.P Robert JAWS is a true classic timeless masterpiece, cheers 🥃 🦈 🚢 🚣♂️
That's so great to know that! Love finding new trivia about Jaws 😁🦈
Same here. I love focusing on the backgrounds of the movie at this point. Noticed a few new things when I saw the Real 3D version a couple weeks ago. Just only wished I would have done the IMAX version the day after!
No wonder he smiled a little when he sang that!
Wow, didn’t know that. He changed ‘England’ in lyrics for ‘Boston.’ Love Robert Shaw and his novels. The Shark is Broken play was great about him. Hope it goes to Broadway.
"old england" is the original lyric.....what's also interesting: the final line ("and so nevermore, shall we see you again") that shaw sings in both versions is a change too....the original line is something like, "and so we hope that, we will see you again"......makes you wonder if it was shaw's idea to change the lyric.....i've never seen the earlier film, but the new lyric certainly works way better for Jaws...really creates a real sense of fatalism, and an allusion to how things will end up for the Cap'n ^^
@@macenblu6 i would have to believe shaw changed it himself foreshadowing the events to take place next. he ad libbed most of his role the only lines he had were written by milius
@@morgott13 i agree...don't know if it's correct or not, but i'll always believe it's just shaw's genius :)
It makes sense, Quint is American so it would be odd if he went "back to England" hehe.
Great use of eye glare intensity in the buccaneer scene right before it cuts away like this man means business..he does these same eye glares in Jaws doesn’t have to speak just give that look 👀 what an actor 👏
So that's where that little ditty came from ! Things you learn
He sang both versions with the same smile and attitude.
I like his chuckle at the end of his singing, felt very real, brilliant actor & at least he died in a lovely spot - Co Mayo!
Me and Robert shaw could of been the best drinking sailor buddies 🙂
Never realised!, plus I thought I knew all the jaws facts, just goes to show!
He was great, right down to his laugh. What a brilliant and intense actor he was.
Wow, great find.
Great piece of trivia and it makes sense that he used it! Thanks!
Learn something new every day!!!
The Buccaneers was a show unmissable for me back then
R.I.P. Robert! We Love and Miss You! 🙏🏽📿
I love this. I never knew this was a callback to an old movie he was on n as a young actor. Amazing.
This is the kind of thing that could only happen in the old days of filmmaking. Because I would bet that it wasn’t in the script. Either Shaw remembered it and was singing it on set , or someone saw that old film and asked him to sing it. Then they shot Hooper’s reaction to the song which made for a really funny moment in the film, and solidified their relationship on the boat, of the old captain who is constantly teasing the young Marine Biologist who is fed up with it, but has to keep tolerating it. It’s a perfect moment that almost certainly wasn’t written. But on the day, Spielberg got it and put it in. Today, with all the special effects and green screens , everything is too planned out, and you don’t get these little touches of greatness.
Fun facts; he is NOT playing the guitar in the old scene. It’s dubbed in.
It’s a public domain song, so it cost them nothing to use it in the film.
Or was actually an entire tv series that ran for nearly 40 episodes in 1956. It's still repeated on British tv today. 👍
I have an new favorite actor
I like that he changes out England for Boston since he's a US sailor in Jaws and looks like part of the royal navy in the first film
Actually he was a privateer in the the first clip (from the 1950's tv series the Buccaneers) though he did work with the navy. I know both clips well as I love both Jaws and the Buccaneers.
Fookin Brilliant!!
That...this was sooo awesome to just stumble across and find.
Thanks for this.
:D
Nice find...one of my best actors.....
Great song, Robert Shaw's own!!
WOW. There is a lot to unpack here....
It's my understanding he could be a difficult person, probably because of the drink but he was an absolutely first rate actor and a real loss. My favorite character in "Jaws" is Quint.
this is amazing I can't believe I've never seen it! Thank you!
Love this.
He was a fantastic and versatile actor. He was much more than 'Quint' on Jaws. Rest In Peace.
Whooooooooa, that's a freakin' AWESOME easter egg!!!!!!
That's amazing. I had no idea.
He even sings good when he's sober lol I love it
Thanks, I've never seen this before!
Heh heh amazing to see Mr Shaw singing in 1957 the same song...slightly different lyrics as was the case with that song....HOOPER! AIN'T YOU WATCHING IT!...HARD TO STARBOARD!!!
@stephenswingler7959-I don't have to take this abuse much longer!
ill never put on another life jacket
I think the best one was after
Cage goes in the water, you go in the water. Shark's in the water. Our shark.
🎵Farewell and adieu to you, fair Spanish ladies...🎶🎶🎶
Master piece 👍
Quite funny that the song fits perfectly and is basically him saying Cooper will die in the cage when its in fact Cooper who lives and Quint who dies...
Good stuff!
This is amazing!
One of my favorite JAW scenes is when Quint , Hooper and Brody all sang this song together ; to think of , just a moment ago they couldn't stand Quint .
Funny how loneliness and distress often brings out the best in you
They never did that. They sang "Show Me The Way to go Home"
The original idea of jaws 2 was to be a prequel starring Quint & his ordeals on the USS Indianapolis & possibly the years in between that & the events of jaws. How good would that have been? Instead we got frankenshark.
It's not a zombie or anything. It's just another big shark.
I find something new about one of my favorite movie. A pleasant surprise.
Great find. I never knew that the lyrics were changed for Jaws.
I sing that all the time now
The very talented Robert Shaw
R.I.P Robert Shaw
Rest In Peace Sir Robert.. ✌
Just watched "The Taking of Pelham 123" Damn!! Robert Shaw could portray one evil, vicious bastard!
I wish he had recorded this version… no other versions sound as good.😢
The look on his face when he's singing is wonderfully creepy in both versions. In Jaws, the look on his face says that Hooper (edit: I originally wrote Cooper 😅) is going to die if he uses the shark cage. In The Buccaneers, I have no idea of the characters motivations, but his face suggests, to me, something sinister. And to be immediately followed up with another character asking what he's so happy about really drives that idea home. Now I really want to watch that movie.
Side Note: I would kill to have movies today made with young and old clones of Robert Shaw. His face is perfect. Tragically, however, I have already typecast him in my head as a villain. But who watches movies for the good guy? You're there to see the villain. Or you're one of those weirdos who like sunshine and blue skies. Bleh.
Quint was more of an anti hero (my personal favourite),jaws was the villan
Cooper?!
@@bparrish99 What an embarrassing typo... Hooper! Only his great aunt calls him Cooper on the count of her dementia, the poor dear. She never liked the man her niece, his mother, married so to her they were all Hoopers and eventually Coopers as her mind started to go.
@@geoffsclassiccars I didn't mean to imply that he's the villain in Jaws. The mayor is the villain, co-villain to the shark. I meant that I would cast Shaw's AI clone as a villain in some new movie. But the more I think about it, maybe anti hero is the right casting even then...
@@raum_dellamorte Gotta find that deleted scene.
Brilliant 👌
Love the reference!!!!
Played his role to the full.
love my grandad minds me of him ❤
In so far as these scenes, I have to say, I prefer his more "rough around the edges" performance in Jaws.
An incredible actor of stage again screen. R.I.P.
Fantastic
Wow!
I never knew he sung this 18 years prior. Besides Roberts voice having a bit more gravile to it from a combination of age and no doubt alcohol consumption he didn’t sound much different.
Incroyable…j’adore
Moi aussi!
I have this show on DVD. It also pops up on Prime.
awesome
THIS IS GOLD!!!
I was just singing that and typed ...serarch...beautiful :D
My goodness he was handsome in his 20s.
His character was unmatched except by other giants like Jack Nicholas, Vincent Price, Hale Holbrook, etc. Robert Shaw, made rhe movie Jaws worth it's weigh in classic horror films.
Thats quite the easter egg that the dude sang this in Jaws
...Actor Name: Robert Shaw Death: Heart Attack Death date: 1978 3 Years After Jaws Released...
Never seen the Buccaneers but I'm just imagining this is a young Quint before he got too salty.
Is this the Greatest Performance by a Supporting Actor in Cinema History ?
I'll answer for you. Yes!
In September 2017 ( Ft Lauderdale,) an old timer deep sea explorer and world wide diver , lived in an apartment on the beach and was on his way out with lots of serious medical problems. We had a huge hurricane bearing down and he said he will die like a man in this storm. Captain Mickey sang that song to me with a big smile and had his bottles of Old Grandad by his side, like some crazy Pirate. That was my brother and he survived only an hour after the storm. He had refused to go to the hospital as usual. Favorite saying..... Death by natural causes is..... for pussies.
Legend
I never knew this!
That's cool
Nothing is new an nothing hasn't been done before 😀
My fav line ..that's not permanent..wanna see something permanent chief boo booo boo boom!
Pops out his front tooth !!😂😁
he changes the lyrics from back to England to Back to Boston.
Good
Jaws ❤
An old Royal Navy song
There's a pub called after him too
