What music gets you in the sailing mood??

    Many players tend to pop in headphones and listen to music while playing their favorite game. Whether its subtle and peaceful to match the mood or intense and adrenaline pumping!

    I for one I happen to play a song for each occasion that I embark in.
    When i'm in a chase or in an epic battle of the isles, I love playing ''Barbossa is Hungry'' from the Pirates of the Caribbean ost or ''Edge of the World'', from Nox Arcana, dark symphony. When i'm at peaceful tide I enjoy playing celtic woodland music or anything fantasy wise that makes the rocking of the ship and sounds of the water, oh so relaxing. Its like ASMR!! lol

    What songs get you in your sailing moods I wonder???

    @salems-reject Ahoy!

    Honestly, I have yet to listen to any kind of music while playing. I've always sailed with a crew of friends or tried to communicate in game that I've never sat down to pick a song for each scenario like you have. I think what you've done is awesome! Do you ever play the music over your mic so other crews can hear you? Normally I just hum while I'm doing things around the ship or my crew just makes up songs about what we're doing.

    "Gotta find the planks, so we don't sink a doooo. Because it would be horrible, dying with yooooooou." Are we going to go platinum any time soon? No, haha! But we sure get a kick out of it.

    Reggae often does it for me if I'm just chilling on the seas. I also sometimes listen to Spotify or Pandora and use Albannach or Tempest as a starting point to get into the mood. Some others include:

    Well I don't usually listen to external music while playing, but I just have to shout-out that "Barbossa is Hungry" is incredible and is basically the first soundtrack piece that I discovered :) Excellent choice! Have you tried listening to the Master and Commander soundtrack? There are some excellent naval pieces on there as well

    @salems-reject This one is just perfect to start a session of Sea of Thieves with your favorite crew! It sets the mood for adventures and engaging in PVP fights.

    I like lots of different sea shanties, but for pumping myself up for serious adventure, nothing gets me stoked like "Shiver My Timbers" from Muppet Treasure Island.

    @ghostpaw I am sorry, but that version of 15 Men was uhm, well, I did not like it. It does not do the song justice at all.

    @ghostpaw Well I did though cause it is a cover of one of my favorite shanties. I owed it at least a full listen through. I linked you the original version of the song seeing as how you liked that version. I felt obliged to link the original in case you haven't heard it in it's full glory.

    @ghostpaw and @Shinten-Rai Oi, non of that now, lol. Everyones tastes are different, If you dont like something, simply dont listen to it. Though, respect your fellow mates' opinions. Not singling anyone out, its mutual respect. As well, ghost I cherish your profile pic lol I've seen that Party City pirate ghoul costume in person lol It's definitely a wicked outfit, especially when it's been personally customized.

    @ghostpaw Aye, music is very meaningful. You should at least listen to the original song though if you like that POTC version. It really is a good shanty. Whole full choir of men singing it. It really brings shivers down your spine.
