Had some idea for some new shanties that could be added to the game.

If they do add them, for the love of god, don't lock them behind tall tales and commendations!

So you're saying that you want them...but they aren't worth unlocking to you?
Not the best of pitches.
The idea of what kind of tall tale or commendation one needs to do to unlock a Drunken Sailor shanty amuses the hell outta me.
Also don't forget about a Treasure Trove Cove shanty: https://youtu.be/wP8uBFQHSG4?si=te9NZfOuPWOHJHe4
If Rare ever needs resources for their endeavors, and resources just means money, then releasing shanties for purchase in the emporium is the easiest cash grab. I can't speak to each example you share because I don't understand how licensing works for copyrighted songs per country. But Agreed sir!
New Shanties!

Sorry, guess I was a bit critical about it. Just don't lock them behind AN ENTIRE TALL TALE!! If it's just a commendation like get super drunk with your galleon crew and play an entire shanty together, then yes, i'd be fine with that.
@snazzyarc5 Ah come on. The shanty will be worth the tall tale. A tall tale the team put a lot of effort into.
The Monkey Island shanty is the reason I 100% all 3 tales for Legend of Monkey Island and it felt so so good. It does help that the tales were awesome in their own right. And honestly, I want more of that. Not just to get more shanties but to get the sense of accomplishment. And that's why the Monkey Island shanty means more to me than any other.
If you really care about getting new shanties in the game, hope they don't cheapen it or else you'll miss out on the feeling. Seriously. It's the best feeling.
I sincerely hope you reconsider your stance on this.

TBF I did both POTC and MI on my own, having to them several times. I'm not saying the tall tales were bad, it just left a little bitterness is all trying to get them.

Alright, yeah, to be fair I can see where you're coming from there. It's hard to not be bitter when you're stuck doing it all alone only to find out you missed something and have to repeat the whole tale. And that's ignoring the case of commendations bugging out and not completing no matter what you do.
"What do you do with a drunken sailor" is the same tune as "We shall sail together". Same song, different lyrics.
