The best music trend of the past year was clearly the rebirth of the sea shanty on tiktok -- after all, what better way to keep morale high during the lockdowns of the past year than a genre of music designed to foster a sense of community on extended seafaring journeys? Here's my ragtime version (with a few variations) of "Soon May The Wellerman Come," as recently popularized by The Longest John.

Killer playing. I just wish more people knew how hard that stride bass is. It's like running full speed at a house with a key in outstretched hand, hoping the key finds the lock before your face finds the door.
Nice :D
I love your analogy.
I have learned several pieces by Joplin and I'm always a little disappointed by how easy it looks because it sure takes a lot of work. It kind of just looks like bouncing around carefree but internally one really has to focus to land on the right chord.
@@itsjustbree9267 too true I always have a Scott Joplin piece learning on the side lol
Lmao most accurate example I've ever heard.
YES XD
The arrangement you didn't knew you needed.
The arrangement I knew I needed when I saw Scott Bradlee and a piano.
but damn did we need it
The arrangement I KNEW I needed to KNOW.
Hi, where are you from ?
I ask because we have the same « unusual »name !
@@MadMaXXXim Hi Maxim! I'm from Belgium!
Bravo!! This makes me more happy than I can possibly imagine!
Whoa- I love you longest johns! You are my favorite band ❤
Who else is here before this completely blows up \/
Nice to see you here Longest Johns
Its the boys!
Thank you for providing the inspiration!
When the world of the wild west and pirates collide. This music is beautiful dude.
The wild west and pirates were not only very close historically they even overlap.
Pirates and Cowboys could have (and probably did) run into each other.
@@theungentleman Technically you are correct as pirates have existed all throughout history. But, I imagine that the original post was referencing the Golden Age of Piracy (a lá Pirates of the Caribbean) which existed during the early 18th century, long before the Wild West and Cowboys as they, as is culturally recognized, existed during the mid-to-late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The Wellerman is not from the recognized age of piracy, ie the early 18th century. Sure, it is a sea shanty, but it is one that was sung by whalers/was written during the mid-to-late 19th century.
@@timothyfandrich1965 You're totally right, I confused the "Wild West" with the age of the american frontier.
Yeah... I just said pirates because "whalers" doesn't have the same ring to it :/ My thought process was more along the lines of "Wild West" and "Pirates" as genres.
My great grandparents had a sheet music store and I was lucky enough to inherit their inventory. Stride, ragtime, cakewalk, I could listen to this music all day.
Oooh, I hope you still have it all and scan it and upload to bookshare or Gutenberg or something 🎼 🎶 🎵
the gorillaz and sandstorm quotes were hilarious. great arrangement as always.
Yes!!!
Can I get a timestamp on these moments?
@@narulizard Gorillaz at 1:00!

wow, went completely over my head, thanks for pointing it out!
The Wellerman Rag. . . Well done you.
Listened so many wellerman versions, why youtube waited so long before to show me that ? Thanks sooooooo much. No sun outside, but your music is the perfect medicine to find back the "taste of life".
The best most melodic version out there wow
Pas une fausse note !! Quelle maîtrise du clavier, félicitations !
This took me back... my grandaddy played ragtime and he and my piano teacher would go round robin, him teaching me syncopation, bass vamps, and driving my scales in the treble, she wanting me to learn slow & steady scales & arpeggios. I miss those days!
So glad to find someone keeping rag piano alive and well... thank you!
Finally, youtube has figured out what I want on my dash.
The crazy thing is when he does those Easter Eggs on the fly for all of us.
I only heard the name a few weeks ago and this classic ditty has been fleetingly stuck in my head ever since. This helps to make the perpetual looping more nuanced, thank you.
Watching you play the piano is like.... watching magic happen.
Your hands move with such speed and precision watching you play is amazing and a real wonder to the ears.
I love getting lost in the music you play.
Toujours merveilleux pour un ancien pianiste !
Thank you for brining passion and power of music to the world. In these times your talent makes you are a hero by actually bringing warmth to the world. Could even save lives. I bow to thee!
This guy's important ppl don't do what he does! Thanks Scottie!
1:56 I love that part!
Q: Do you prefer Sea Shanty or Jazz?
Me: yes
No love for Clint Eastwood by Gorillaz at 1:00? Killer arrangement and performance!
Oh idk bout you but I truly loved it
Also there were more than just that referenced!!!
@@comit8077 I loved it, too! I heard a handful of other references but at the time I saw it I didn't see anyone pointing out the Gorillaz one.
Did I hear darude sandstorm at 1:15?
Left me speechless!
Absolutly perfect and a true display of talent.
Thank you for a beautiful and unique rendition of the Wellerman.
This guy is terrific. He makes it look so easy.
Just......... WOW!! The ultimately best cover i've EVER heard!
Thank you!
The more I search this channel the more magic I find.........
I just love this so much. I have listened to it several times a day since I discovered it. I tend to get obsessed.....but who wouldn't ? Amazing 🥰
This combines the two best musical genres 👌
Blew my mind like all your work does!
This certainly boosted MY morale
Man even Scott Bradlee's getting into the sea shanty stuff. It's getting everywhere.
I loved all of the tempo and style changes
BRILLIAN! Best cover i've EVER heard!
Always smooth sailing with Captain Bradlee at the helm! 😉 👍💖🎶
You always have a way with words, Betty! Well said.
Just started to learn this on low whistle, put my whistle away to look into the tube to find this. Sometimes moments are simply perfect.
What a truly wonderful rendition, it makes my feet tap & my soul happy. You're a talented lad 👍
Parfait !!
Although I've followed PMJ for years, tonight's the first time I've listened to Scott solo. This newbie is now a subscribie.
I’ve listened to this several times now. Fantastic music!
Man... So many emotions... I'm crying. This is so genuinely good. Thank you so much.
I'm only here from the algorithm, but I genuinely keep forgetting that you're an already fantastically talented pianist outside of the Jukebox!
So pleasing to the soul.
Oh heavens, this brings back many a piano lesson from when I was 14! I had a wonderful jazz piano teacher that was giving me a good grounding in ragtime style music, and seeing the beginning of this video, with the left hand playing a "stride" style brought every one of those lessons back. Very, very nicely done! You've earned yourself another subscriber, sir!
I love ragtime so much - this sounds awesome! 🙂 I liked the blended styles towards the end.
Awesome! Congratulations to you (and to us, for being able to enjoy such wonderful playing)
I don't know what the best thing is (beside the music) about this video, the vest or the "turn and look" on the last note.
Oh man! That was fantastic!!!❤
Utterly brilliant. Thank you.
Wow, brilliant technique and arrangement 😮 I m in awe❤
Absolutely stunning!
i am amazed by the number of different styles
That is so impressive, I can see how much work you've put in to that. Great job and thank you for sharing!
Bravissimo!! I mean, The Wellerman's a fun melody to start with, but your creativity cranked the fun factor way up there. What. A. Hoot!! Thanks for sharing this with us!
