I'm ex Army and my Dad was a Tin Can Sailor (destroyer ) we would run together occasionally on Saturday mornings and whenever we were in the car he would put in a cassette of Navy songs , what he called " good music " of course just to rile me up and this was one of them. Can't listen to it without smiling . RIP Dad.
I served 5 years in the Navy. I listen to this song every other week maybe 3-4 times in a row. My memories come back to me from when I served. The smell of salt in the ocean. The sound of the waves breaking against the hull. The constant rocking from port to starboard. The cold and warm breezes against my face. Just like upon land, the ocean is a world in and of itself. One that is vastly unfamiliar and mysterious. Yet pulls those towards it, like sirens of ancient Greece singing and enchanting sailors towards the water. I raise a glass of fine whiskey. Cheers to all those who have served at sea whether during times of peace, for war, for commerce, or simply for pleasure. Fair winds and following seas to all!

That’s mad you said that, you just brought back a memory I hadn’t remembered in many years, my grandad on my mums side joined the navy after his discharge from the army in world war 2 (he was wounded liberating Eindhoven after taking part in the Normandy landings, he was only 17 when he landed) being a docker as a kid In Liverpool he always wanted to go to sea but when the war kicked off he lied about his age and joined his fathers company the Leicestershire rifles, when he finally went to sea the war was in its last few months and he was on the HMS Penelope as an engineer, grandad said after all the damage she took that when they returned they’d all started calling her HMS Pepperpot , my grandad was so sad to see her decommissioned, but he’s the crazy thing, my dad was a bit of a boy and finally got given the choice of borstal or the armed forces and he chose the Royal Navy, he was to be an engineer too and guess what his first commission was? The HMS Penelope 2, crazy that, they had a link years before me mum linked them by marriage, I couldn’t get in to the navy 3 times over the medical so had to settle for trawler fishing, something so magical and terrifying about the sea, I love how you immediately realise just how insignificant you are when you can no longer see land.. sorry for the boring life story just your comment really brought so much back that I hadn’t thought of in so many years... big love shipmate!
@@MrRedPasty I’ve recalled a memory of many years past and Long forgotten. My Uncle was in the Navy and in the early 80’s we went along as kids to see one of his old ships decommissioned. I really wish I could recall the name! We also got to see a boat my Great Uncle built get “christened”!! Or named!! Again I can’t recall the name but I do recall my great nan trying to smash the champagne bottle on her and watching as she rolled down and hit the water! Now that was a sight to see!!
My first warship became a reef in 1996. The last is being sunk in an exercise early next year. She is currently rusting in Middle Loch at Pearl now. Our division murals are still on the bulkheads. Our mementos hidden throughout. It’s an empty feeling.
I, too, heard this on Master and Commander, finding it on here completely by accident. Thank you so much for the full version: a truly uplifting song, you can't help but roar out the chorus, ha! Thank you as well for clearing up a few nautical question I had. You seem to be a font of useful historical information.
I remember a long time ago I was friends with a guy who was called “Jack”, one day I saw that he looked very sad and was having a bad day, so later that day me and the rest of my friends gathered together and sung this song to him as a way to cheer him up and it worke. After we finished he gave us all a big hug.
Joined the US Navy in 2000. Found myself volunteering at the San Diego Maritime Museum beginning early 2001. Saw the Harbor change dramatically! The Former HMS Rose came as the New HMS Surprise, then the USS Midway came in as a Museum All the time my Girl Friend at the time who worked living history aboard the Star and I took a trip on the Star of India on her 140th Birthday. I'm away now and miss San Diego something fierce! But the prices are all too much. So now it's all a memory. It's now a blur.. my point? When you're young STOP! Look around! Take Pictures! tell the one who is sharing time in your life, tell them you Love them! It goes way too fast!!
I Listen to this and think about sailing when it was written. A hundred guys all working together under the most brutal law that existed at the time, eating weavilly ship's biscuit and drinking partially spoiled water, going months at a time without seeing land. Each man depended on the other to do their job, and they all faced the danger of storms and enemy action together. A slight misstep or misunderstanding from a man in the t'gallants could doom the entire crew to a horrible death. People say that guys in 'nam or WW2 were badasses. Maybe. My vote goes towards sailing men of war.
the difference is that could kill you verse will kill you, their is a large difference in the survival rate of wiping and hanging, especially as they often poured vinegar into the lashes that will hurt like hell but may save your life
Trajan Fidelis and those men who sailed out of New Bedford MA and Nantucket who risked life and limb for money,a and who's hard work and toil helped to light up the world, when New Bedford MA was the richest city in the world ,God I'd of loved to see her in her hey day. what a husk of her former self she is today tis sad really.
I was a Navy guy 30 yrs. ago, but not a "real" sailor. I envy those who have spent time on tall ships...hearing songs like this makes me want to grab a marlinspike and practice knots, or muster on the forecastle, or something...
My Mom, sitting downstairs: "oh, shes doing her schoolwork, shes such a good kid!" Me, in my room, staring at my horrible grades and 30+ missing assignments: "FALDEE RALDEE RALDEE RALDIEE RYE-EYE-DOE!!!!!"

baconman It’s English and it stays English. We’re not alike each other at all because America is a bastardised country of a mix of European countries. You don’t have any sea shanties.
Chief, HT1 (SW/AW) USN(Ret) here. I had a HTC on my first ship that would sing shanties all the time, at first it was annoying as hell, but I soon found myself listening to his CDs and singing them myself.
Wow I joined in 1999 and if I stayed it would have been my 20th year now. I would also have chanties in my head sometimes when out to sea. Usually on the smoke deck staring out in the big cloudy horizon and listening to the waves.
@@donbarzinitut Of course we have sea shanties! Theme from Gilligan's Island! Sit right back and you'll hear a tale! I sing it all the time when sailing in a bit of weather.
Whenever I hear this, I cannot help but think of my great-grandfather (My family always called/calls him Papa Jack). I never got to meet him since he passed away shortly after my older sister was born in 2002 but I hope to meet him someday in the great unknown that is the afterlife.
My old Army friends and I used to get drunk and sing this frequently. It was quite heartfelt when the rest of our platoon met up and started singing this again

i am 21, and my dad passed from a heart attack 7 weeks ago. i don’t know why he liked this sort of music, but honestly i like it too because he did. i miss him and i will always remember this song.
Smoking C96 Unless you were actually in the Royal Navy, where singing shanties while aboard an official R.N. vessel was strictly prohibited lol it was civvies and privateers what belted these beauties!!
My music teacher’s great, great, great, great, great, grandfather was actually a sailer and he was in world war 1. And, she also has some old stuff of his. Like some papers, and other stuff he needed. I love this song. It makes me remember the old days and it makes me realize we are all safe, even if I am not American.
I like this song very much. I heard it for the first time at the film "Master and Commander". Kind regards to all seamen of England, the best sailors of the world, enemies in 1982, allies in 1990, and comrades in all times.
B an intrnt pirat...pirate music pirate games...go go go go. and no...to be a real pirate all you have to do is find your own way in life. Be free,live the way you want, by no ones rules or creed but your own. That was a pirates life.
I don't think being a pirate would be half as great as we make it seem to be =/. Although until recent occurrence of thoughts I really wanted to be one too. You sail around on these highly dangerous seas...each and every day holds a high chance you'll be taken by disease,sickness,hung or get caught in a storm and drown in salty seas..Add to it, all the friends you lose in the span of just a couple months....Sometimes passing their rotting corpses in the gallows and stuff =( Idk about you guys but losing good friends and crew would be the shittiest thing ever...

More than 6 months contract cause this covid 19 and now i sign off...listening this song bring back my memories when i onboard...we are the silent heroes that everyone dont know how we go through the rough sea and stuck in sea.
@tigre15WI one of my favorite movies of all time. Song has been stuck in my head since '03 when I first watched the film as a teenager. That movie and gangs of New York had a profound impact in my teens lol
Makes me remember the time I had gone to St Michael’s for a nice parade, I was the only drummer of the march in our Malitia uniforms, we were marching to the route step across a dock right next to the Chesapeake, I remember we sang this song on our way to the start, and that was only a couple months ago, December it was, that was a great parade to be in, and my first time marching while playing the drums and oh boy it was hard to do it after the 20 minute mark of the parade because one of the drummers were late, that one sucked

Excellent! Master and Commander is one of the best movies ever made. I’m thankful to hear this song and understand some words I got wrong.
Watching this scene in Master & Commander I love this. :)
After hundreds of years, thanks to Assassins Creed 4, Sea shanties are popular again. What a glorious come back!
some few of us remember A.L Lloyd and Ewan Maccoll.
I dont really even play video games...
I loved shanties before that game. AC4 just made it easier to find them.
I don't think it's thanks to Assassins Creed 4 at all.
While it gathered a few more people, it by no means made shanties popular again.

The royal navy had soft dicipline at the time hanging was a death sentence on land but fifteen lashes at sea

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life John 3:16😙
go tell em!
This song fills me up with warm and fuzz feelings.
I love this song I heard it first from master and commander.
22 years in the Royal Navy. Happy days
I'm gonna play this at my Graduation.
As you should
same
Almost breaks your heart listening to this when you think of all the poor souls who may have sung this right before losing their lives at sea...
So far, this is my favorite version
"Since we've sailed from Plymouth sound"
Good to know Plymouth gets a mention instead of Portsmouth.
Can we make 2021 the year of the sea shanties?
More than 6 months contract cause this covid 19 and now i sign off...listening this song bring back my memories when i onboard...we are the silent heroes that everyone dont know how we go through the rough sea and stuck in sea.
Master and commander brought me here one of my favourite films
@tigre15WI one of my favorite movies of all time. Song has been stuck in my head since '03 when I first watched the film as a teenager. That movie and gangs of New York had a profound impact in my teens lol
Faldee raldee raldee raldee rye-eye-doe must feel really special being remembered by Jack.
Song's an unironic banger, even as someone with no naval connections except a friend I haven't seen since HS.
I play sea shanties on the game Sea Of Thieves when we take long trips.
Just got back from a 9 day haul with a tug and barge to Detroit and back to Charlevoix. We sang this as we came in the other night. 👍🏻
There! I have it! We’re completely ditched! Don’t you know that in the service, one must always choose the LESSER OF TWO WEEVILS?!
What an amazing film
OMG. I'm gobsmacked
We used to sing this in the scouts around the campfire as an adult I know the meaning of the song I won't forget them.
Really enjoyed that! Big year for the navy.
My daughters class have been learning this song
makes me want to watch master and commander
This is an awsome tune play it often at work
My friend and I sang this all the time then he moved dont forget your old shipmate brother
better than almost 99% songs that came after this shanty was first sung.
Thank you for posting this video. I really appreciate it.
When you see an old friend, and they don't remember you:
Makes me remember the time I had gone to St Michael’s for a nice parade, I was the only drummer of the march in our Malitia uniforms, we were marching to the route step across a dock right next to the Chesapeake, I remember we sang this song on our way to the start, and that was only a couple months ago, December it was, that was a great parade to be in, and my first time marching while playing the drums and oh boy it was hard to do it after the 20 minute mark of the parade because one of the drummers were late, that one sucked
