My favorite thing about this Home Free Sea Shanty Medley is to NOTICE that the beat boxing beats go faster and faster with each next song to give the sound of an old fashioned tall ship or pirate ship sailing faster and faster over the waves of the ocean!! This is one of my FAVORITE Home Free videos! Adam Chance brilliantly convinced the other Home Free band mates to do this Sea Shanty Medley because Adam Chance loves sea shanties! If you have not seen it yet, Adam Chance and Home Free have a NEW Sea Shanty video that was written by Adam Chance and is the soundtrack to a new pirate ship video game! The thing to keep in mind is that the new Home Free pirate Sea Shanty video is not acapella as they use a couple of real instruments but the video, singing and the music is just as BRILLIANT as Home Free is same as usual! :) Enjoy! With Home Free tying up the ending like a sailor's knot tying the other songs in the medley together, Home Free also did this with the "Butts Remix Medley"

In order: 1) Yes "Drunken Sailor" is a folk song/work song, so there are probably as many different versions, as there once were shanty-men leading the crew in a stamp-and-go shanty to raise the sails on a massive Man-o'War. 2) The shanty band "The Longest Johns" made a massive community sing-along video of the whole song of "Leave Her Johnny"with nearly 500 of their fans singing along on the chorus.The video premiered December 30. 2020. (because it too is a folk song, the lyrics are a bit different than Chance sings). You can see it here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/mXyl3Wpnk6WfZag (not really in your reaction alley, but you might like it) 3) Introspection happens at 11pm on a hot summer night when you can't sleep.

On drunken sailor there are roughly 15 “official versions” with another 50+ common versions, it is one of the best examples of groups tailoring a song to fit their levels of darkness, humor, era, and theme. I tend to be a fan of the older, darker grittier versions that were closer to the original pirate based variants, which list the ways to kill the sailor as he “sleeps”, with everyone fading out/away and switching to a new lead proposing a new way to off the king’s man that drifted into their part of town for a drink For example: “ What will we do with a drunken sailor, oh what would we do with a drunken sailor, yes what could we do with that drunken sailor ear-lie in this mornin I say tip his hat and sew it unda, tip his hat and sew it unda? Yes, tip his hat and …sew …it …unda …ear-lie-in-this-morn-ning Hey ho! An up ‘e rises, heyho up ye rises, hey, ho, up they rises ear-lie in this mor-oning How bouts dip his head an hold ‘im under? Dip his head and ‘old im unda? Yeah, dip his head and hold him unda…. Earlie in dis mornin Hey-yo! Oh up he rises… “ And similar (slit ‘is throat with a rusty razor was a common and favorite one)

You should really look into more sea shanties. I highly recommend the group The Longest Johns. They're a group of shanty singers out of Bristol in England. One of their videos that is the most powerful to me is The Mary Ellen Carter, for a lot of personal reasons. But you won't go wrong with a lot of what they've done. I love "Oak and Ash and Thorn" as well, and "The Northwest Passage." They aren't acapella, but they really do amazing work. They have even done two or three community sing projects, where their fans get to record themselves singing the song (they even provide dedicated tracks for the different parts, for people to use for reference), which they then compile into a massive video. The first was Leave Her Johnny, the second was The Wellerman, and the third was The Worker's Song... and... wow. They just put out their fourth community project... four hours ago, at the time of this post, for Here's a Health to the Company. And, hey, maybe moving on from _just_ acapella could be a good shot in the arm for the channel. There's a lot of amazing music out there. As Neil Gaiman once put it, "In the end, we must all change or die." A bit... _dramatic_ of phrasing for what you're doing here, but... eh? There's still room to grow and adapt with all of this, and just... keep it fresh and fun for _you_ first and foremost.

Answers - I seem to remember Tim saying around the time it came out that the sound at the beginning was Darren Rust, their producer, hitting a suitcase, though I may be remembering wrong. While the TikTok craze inspired them to do the video, Chance has been a serious shanty fan for many years, so he may have introduced a less familiar one to the mix. Rob's mustaches in this are a work of art, Tim is standing in a boat in his brother in law's backyard, Austin already had the pirate outfit (and the sword) and I suspect Rupp had great fun digging out some of his D&D props (or finding the perfect excuse to buy new ones on the HF budget. :-) )

"Leave Her Johnny" is a great shanty song. It highlights the importance of being a bit superstitious as a sailor. There can be many reasons for a ship running badly. Some will say it is luck, but bad management often makes their own bad luck. So when the ship has been running badly for too long, the smart thing is to not re-enlist while in port and go crew on a different ship, perhaps one that doesn't seem to have so much trouble. Also, directly criticizing the captain is not a smart move while on ship, so it is better to just blame it on bad luck and move on. So you get the politics and pragmatics of being a "superstitious" sailor. Some people will think the song is about leaving his girl and going back on ship, but all the lyrics are about bad trips on ship so it is time to leave a losing gig, thus the "her" is the ship. For example "shipped it green" means the ship starting out the trip crashing through the waves, constantly flooding the deck. That is unpleasant and dangerous. It implies they have crowded the time window and perhaps started the run too early or too late in the season and thus inviting lots of bad weather/currents during what should have been the easy part of the trip. Once again, a management choice that doesn't really have much consideration for the crew's safety. You don't have to criticize the policies and choices of a captain or the ship's owner/manager. They'll get the message when it's hard to get a full crew. Boycotts are very old.

You are correct, for the past 60 years I've known it as "do we do" not "will we do."

Some background, They are a Canadian power metal band, their Lead Singer is Brittney Slayes and she is a powerhouse. Classically trained. She also has an Opera Battle with another singer, which is pretty incredible. Another band you need to check out, Sleep Token, songs: The Summoning, The Love You Want, Bloodsport (from the room below), Take me Back to Eden, The Apparition, Accensionism.

I'd love to join you on Patreon, but I'm unemployed, stuck at home with health issues, and it's really been messing with my emotional health. Then a few months ago, after watching a VoicePlay video, your video was recommended. I'd never watched a music reaction video before, but I saw the pink tie and matching pink headphones, and I said to myself, "This looks like a FUN guy. Let's see what he has to say." (I think it was "Dragonborn Comes.") You, Mortius, started me on a journey through the music reactors of KZitem. Groups like Home Free, VoicePlay, PTX, Bass Gang, and now I'm finally getting into Voctave (thanks to so many reactors showcasing them) all give me joy, and music reactors like you bring me smiles, laughs, a new appreciation for these songs, as well as beautiful memories of music classes back in college. (Sometimes, I'm right there with Mason, shouting at my screen "You mean THIS chord!!!" Haha! It's okay, music theory was hard.) You really should be proud of this channel, the community you have built, the education you bring, and the random people who you rescue from a colorless world with your pink tie and bright personality. So I guess I just wanna say... thanks!

There are many versions and verses of Drunken Sailor. I’ve always sung what shall we do with a drunken sailor.

I grew up with "What shall we do with the drunken sailor", so yeah I reckon it varies.

😂 I can't believe not one reactor I've seen has commented on the beat boxed castanets! Sea shanty English band the Longest Johns have done 2 community sea shanties the Wellerman and Leave Her Johnny worth checking out & edit needs a medal. Another English folk group who do acapella but do use instruments 21:21 some of the time - 'Carriage 12' about the US soldiers confronting terrorist on train in Belgium. If you find a live version, listen a few times you twig what they're say( strongish northern English accents 😅)

I am sure that with the long history of these shanties variations in the wording are inevitable.

I don't think it's possible for there to be a definitive version of a sea shanty. There might be versions that are widest spread or have the most documentation attesting their history, but given the way sea shanties developed I think it is totally possible that there were as many versions of a given shanty as there were bosuns singing them. I arranged Santiana at one point and I think I found four or five versions that were equally widespread with vastly different lyrics. There are also a number of shanties that were literally designed so that each sailor could improvise a verse with a repeating chorus that didn't change for as long as they needed the song to go. They were work songs designed to synchronize movements across the crew, so variety in content was important to maintain interest.

Great reaction! If you want to listen to more of "leave her johnny" I'd suggest you have a look at this here - kzitem.info/news/bejne/mXyl3Wpnk6WfZag about 500 voices doing the chorus, it's very impressive! Also, probably interesting for you to pick apart :)

Now you should go listen to the extended version of this song (they don't have a video for it), but it's worth a listen.

Hey Mortius, I don't know if you are into Barbershop Music but I'd love to see you react to "Ringmasters - Notre Dame Medley" from the Barbershop Harmony Society Channel. In my Opinion this is simply the most stunning barbershop piece out there and I am sure you wouldn't regrett it. It is also the video that got me into Barbershop Music an estimated 5 years ago. Greetings from Germany, ~ Collin

Great intro (love your editor), and I understand what you mean, but the people that have subscribed and support you know exactly what they are getting with you, so keep on doing what you feel is best for you. There's something cringey about watching a reactor who is trying to force you to like something when you can see that even they aren't enjoying themselves. If you're having fun, we're having fun!
