Can we get some more classic Sea Shanties?

  • Blow the man down
    What do you do with a drunken sailor
    Bully in the alley
    Away Rio
    Dead Man's Chest
    Spanish Ladies
    Leave her, Johnny
    Don't Forget your old Shipmate

    There's a ton of awesome sea shanties out there, some more suggestive than others, but it does feel a shame that there's not more in the game.

    Here's a nice selection:

  • I would love to get more of them!

  • Don't forget about:

    • Welcome to Tortuga
    • The Sea
    • Drink up your rum
    • The Irish rover
    • Wellerman, etc
  • @selgewick
    I only listed a group. I would welcome more classics.

  • @tybald Okay. Thank you matey.

  • @tybald Yes, please unless copyrights becomes an issue somehow.

  • @sairdontis4317
    Most sea shanties themselves should be public domain. Specific musical arrangements would be copywritten, but most of them would be free to use, unless someone grabs something that actually isn't a classic sea shanty and uses it. (For example, Yo Ho a pirates life for me is not a classic sea shanty, and required permissions from the rights holder (disney) to use.

  • Although this is propably suggested all the time, since SoT has a collab with disney for Pirates of the Carribean, he's a pirate would make for the best Sea Shantie.

    I cannot count the number of times I have played this while sailing or doing something that already feels epic, as it amplifies it tenfold.

  • You know, I love all of the shanties/mariner songs listed here. Just remember, if they don't add them, be sure to sing them to your crew as you sail.

    They are always in the game that way ;-)

    I'm not sure my discord chat will appreciate it.

    They wouldn't have time to be soured if they join in!

  • Since season 2 I thought it would be a great idea to continue a trend of adding 1 song per season as a nod to the theme it held but maybe it's just not a good use of their development time.
