I'm a Navy vet, that was precious. Truly. Dad was Navy too and all the way back to this. I wish we'd sang it together. Grandad was overjoyed when his granddaughter could finally sing "Duke of Earl" with him. It was our lullaby. He taught my sister how to dance. Best storyteller EVER. (Think- Jingle Jangle movie)
It was so cute. Did he actually blush? LOL Dad and Grandad were called "Bob". Some called Dad "Chief" where I grew up outside the Beltway. If we were in town, it could have been one of the Boy Scout dads or somebody from his dungeon at work. He'd get calls.. "Oh? I'll be right there". I can imagine any of the Pentagon kids would have had the same PTA phone tree. An actual google of stupid things could cause an international incident in our neighborhood.
If I walked up the ramp and saw these guys singing.... I'd SHAKE THEIR HAND..... The people walking up the ramp don't even acknowledge these guys and they should.... KIMBERS MEN = EPIC
I don't know why but I really appreciate him fixing up his mates clothes in the very beginning
He's also the prankster of the group. He's always picking on John.

It's even better because they're singing on a ship.

Man the front man has such a unique voice keep it up, and the harmonies are wonderful
John Bromley, of Kimber's Men. The epitome of "a bullhorn of a voice"!!!
This guy's voice is like butter
Butter with hair on it's chest.
More like a foghorn
I absolutely love this. There's really nothing that compares to the feeling u get from songs like this
I love every rendition of this I've seen, but it's great how Gareth's harmonies are much clearer in this version
Albert Docks Liverpool. This was one of my favourite places when I lived there. Good times.
I visited the Merseyside Maritime Museum a number of years ago! Liverpool is a very interesting city
KIMBERS MEN..... = OUTSTANDING
One of them sings a bit higher than the other three. It sounds great!
John Bromley is a force of nature.
Are you guys still singing and where will you be singing next, this is magic.
Just look on their website they are getting out and about again now that covid is more controlled (we hope!). Harwich Shanty Festival in October 2021
I would follow this man in to battle
And into bottle too;)
Loving the harmonies
god bless the working class, let em sing forever
Is it just me or does the middle guy in the sweater and biker cap look like Joe Gatto from Impractical Jokers
Frank vogel (coach of the LA Lakers) looks like his twin
Nah. I mean maybe a leaner version. No offense to Joe Gatto. If you’re reading this your awesome
I just love this. Beautiful stuff
2:50 ko-ko lol
Very good. I love this
The lead singer is magnificent.
1:49 Reaction to skipping the verse about Greasy Annie?
No - they were teasing me by suggesting that I was Greasy Annie - I have nice friends !! :-)
Y'all are just great!
The lead singer has a great base voice
Love that this was recorded in Liverpool, best city in the world
Tom Hanks packed on a few pounds.
Especially in the larynx area
I would watch that movie 3 times.
Well Done!!!
Liverpool?
Lol! That's absolutely correct!
This geezer reminds me of the landlord from Early Doors
My people, through and through. A pint on me when we meet, fellas.
FYI .. " Bully in the alley" ... " I'm drunk on my ass Bob -- help me up -- back to the ship "
I miss joe stead :(
This is more like it.
That’s Liverpool, right?
Ya Albert docks by the look of it
Pretty clear by the prominent Merseyside sign on the building
New Tom Hanks movie looks lit
Being English is an ethnicity British is a state of mind
A song from long ago.this sort of life is no longer around this will be censored soon because it's white European history.
Not so “long ago” - written by Mike Waterson, late 20th century.
Bet two dollas yer American
