Dude I looked up sea shanties to mess with someone but ended up on "roll the old chariot" it is hands down one of the greatest bit of music I've ever heard.
Sea shanties are some of the most culturally timeless songs ever made.
I totally agree
I totally agree!! I just heard that song at the end of The North Water (new series on Epix). It blew me away and now here I am diving down the TH-cam rabbit hole again. I love this shit!!
i guess Im randomly asking but does any of you know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly lost my login password. I love any tips you can offer me
@@wallacerandall4058 sounds sus.
Come all you bold seamen, wherever you’re bound,
And always let Nelson’s proud memory go round.
And pray that the wars and the tumult may cease,
For the greatest of gifts is a sweet, lasting peace.
May the Lord put an end to these cruel old wars,
And bring peace and contentment to all our brave tars.
Nelson and Wellington were both Rothschilds' men. Financed by Rothschilds.
RIP to all our brothers we have lost to the sea. My auld trawler fell to sea and lost all her crew. Five of my brothers gone but not forgotten. And what a voice this man has..
OMG I don't have words for how stirring and beautiful this is. You've made this retired Coast Guardsmen cry happy tears Sir. God Bless You!
Find "Humane Society" by David Coffin. It's about YOU! You and all your Brothers that risk their lives so others may live. Before the US Coast Guard or the Revenue Service were established. Semper Paratus!
Thank you for your service sir . God bless
Your voice gives me strength. Thank you.
I hope I can sing this with everyone some day, in my beloved home of Massachusetts.
Britain may be small but it inspired the world. David does Britain justice.
Not too long ago, I saw an old friend laid to rest to this song. I thought it beautiful at the time, and as the months went on, I felt it fitting to remember him by going down the sea shanty rabbit hole. And then - I found this. This song. This version. This voice. Mr. Coffin, your voice is nothing short of spectacular. Should I, in fact, one day find myself at the Pearly Gates - hopefully sometime long from now - if God’s voice doesn’t sound like yours, I suppose I’ll be a bit disappointed.
You are too kind and so sorry for your loss.
Agreed David indeed has a great voice. I especially appreciate the way he takes his time with the songs and doesn't try to scream or rush through them
I know many Liturgical chanters and few are as talented as David Coffin. May our great God who loves all ,restore us to that likeness which is with Him. Which he created us in. God Bless David Coffin...
Wow. What a fabulous voice. Very good
Started out as a girl, became a burly man with a handlebar mustache, cried a manly tear, wiped it away with calloused hands hardened by my many years before the mast.
10/10 would listen again.
Me and my friends have been singing sea shanties at the park of Friday nights disturbing the public. Looks like i found another absolute banger we can sing
Thank you so much for keeping alive and well our histories from both near and far! Beautiful.
A beautiful song for the sea. A hymn that comes from the heart.
Omg dude, the chills I get when listening to you sing. You’re a prime example of how I think we’ve lost something substantial through our gradual loss of singing songs.
Amazing! The voice and the soul of the sailors! Congrats from Brazil!
I love how deep his voice gets for these. Shanties sound so much better with a deep voice unlike these rock remixes
I’m so happy I found you, bless the Internet. And bless you.
My wife and I went to Revels once many years ago. It was fantastic. This year they're going to do a virtual Revels. I've never done any sailing, but I always wanted to. I love watching the sun come up far out at sea.
From a sailor to a sailor, God bless you. Thank you.
Much Respect to you David from Ireland, such a bard you are! Fantastic!
David Coffin, you have a great voice!! And especially for sea shanties!! These lyrics are timeless and especially meaningful for these terrible times with the current war in Ukraine!!
Outstanding !
God bless U brother for many years to come-keep the sails sharp to the wind .
In my experience at most sea music festivals the last song sung is "Leave Her Johnny".
Quite true. But at maritime sessions many end with the Seaman’s Hymn. Leave Her Johnny is the quintessential coming home chantey for sure.
Gods Above and Below, that was just lovely!
One of the best versions I've ever heard!
No words, just tears. Thank you.
Wow, thank you
Just amazing David. Your songs bring me lots of joy. So glad I found this.
God Bless David Coffin....Wonderful Stuff.
So very inspiring. Just what we need in these trying times. Thank you for posting this.
His voice only gets better with age.
Love listening to you and watching you !!
Wonderful.
this is how they are sung! with quality and feeling! alcohol helps too. i should know: ive sung many of these overseas in one bar or another!
Absolutely gorgeous. Love the new videos! Keep it up!
If they ever make another movie like Master and Commander, I hope they have you sing this from the deck of the ship.
Such a powerful voice!
So beautiful. My goodness.
Thank you.
Fantastic! Happy to have found your music through Blow the Man Down as I am a lifelong New Englander and lover of folk music. Respect to you David
Congratulations on your movie appearance. I knew it was your voice before I saw you ! What a gift you have shared for so long ! Many thanks.
What movie ? I'm curious to see it.

Thank you Carol.
Chills
Deadset Legend!!
I came here from a Hip Hop song.... I heard Roll the Chariot Along, till this I thought David was English...
Amazing.
My brother has his heart set on joining the navy. as his older brother. I will be singing this when before we see him off. no he wont be a seaman but i hope it will be a reminder to him when he is away just as much as it will be a reminder for the rest of his family while he is away.
Oh man, what a tear jerker. Thank you.
Gorgeous!!!!
What a voice...
What a great great voice :-)
Great, greetings from Germany
Goosebumps appear . Superb performance of a moving song ! Thankyou David .
Semper Fi. Beautiful
What a voice man.
What an awesome voice!
David - your singing is inspiring- thank you.
best song
Amazing voice! I've loved older songs of the sea, since a small child.
FK love songs, I wish I could sing like that. What a great voice, that's awesome
Ojjjj cudownie 😍😍🎶 Płynę przez ten ocean muzyki 🎶😍👏🏻 Beautiful song😍
Fantasstic!
I NEED this sung at my funeral!
Very nice.
Thank you ship mates may the winds bail our backs
A fine singer. Nice one David.
Just heard of you Sir, love it and subbed. Almost shed a tear thinking of those now gone. I'd go back then in a second without hesitation. To live on the sea. Just give me one drop of Nelson's (our my Norwegian ancestor's) blood.
Late to the party iam here now enjoying this channel
I discovered him through the movie, Blow the Man Down.
I enjoy your music so much! " roll the old chariot" is by far my favorite. Enjoyed this whole concert you put on here. "Abide with me" you did very good on!
David, just saw 'Blow the Man Down.' Your music is wonderful - youre doing God's work by preserving shared common culture of a bygone Era. PLEASE UPLOAD YOUR VERSION OF "BLOOD RED ROSES." I can hear the bleakness of the seafaring life in your powerful voice. Thanks! How did I never hear of you before this?!?!?
How can 5 people object to this? This was magnificent.
Thank you.
I object. I do not beg to any "Lord" or "God", who is actually the source of most wars.
Good god sir
Sea shanty’s are having a moment on tik tok. You should show them how it’s done!
@chanteyman has entered the TikTok platform 5 days ago. Fortunately my daughter can show me how to use it too.
I was just going to say this
How old is this song and it's a call for peace from those fighting the wars of others. Nothing changes. I first saw David Coffin singing at Portsmouth (via youtube) 4 years ago and was amazed. What a stirring voice and personality. Fair play and good health all. Perhaps one day we will learn. The enemy is not without. Maybe we don't count on it though eh?
Chris, the text was written by A.L Lloyd and loosely set to a Welsh hymn tune called Patience.
Thank you for your reply David. That leads me to another artist I was not aware of. For all of it's faults, TH-cam is a musical rabbithole if you have the time and inclination to let yourself fall. What an asset eh?
My Grandfather was Welsh and sailed out from Liverpool with all it's mixed history to many of the cold seas on the whaling ships. My dad still has the scrimshaw, teeth and eardrums. How strange a change in just a lifetime or two. Abhorant by todays standards quite rightly, but just a short while ago the world was lit by whale oil and viewed so very differently. Easy to forget the realities of life just a blink of an eye away.
You nail the song as always. Many thanks for sharing. If fortune allows it, my round. Hope you like a Guinness.
Chris
Amen 😢🙏
great he got a seamans voice... i know, i was aseaman
Beautiful. Song starts at 1:21
You are a treasure, sir! I saw you first in “Blow the Man Down” and was struck! You are exceptional! It’s so nice to see that you are also a believer. I’m blessed to have gone to a Christian school for my whole life and be in our choir for a good few years of that time. You are exceptional, sir! I would love to see a full version of the song from the opening of that film! Much love from Miami! -Joseph
Bit ironic that you’re named after what you would consider a heathen god then, innit?
Hey David, I wandered down many a random YT alleyway and came across your videos. What a result. Fantastic my friend. Keep it up.
Welcome aboard!
When i was in the navy we picked up an english sea captain in portsmith england and on the way back to the US we buried him at sea..
GReat Great Stuff! I am working on away Haul away for our condo group at the fire pit for St.Patty's Day! Thanks David Great fun! Old Newport Sailor!
Have fun!
A beautiful song sung powerfully, and the banner at 3:53 is the cherry on top :)
I'm not even religious and I love this. You bring me peace with your voice, thank you.
How do you have less 2k subs? This man is THE VOICE of HUMAITY.
Wad nen Hammer Typ
I first heard Holdstock and Macloed sing this, and this one has the same affect.
One upvote/like isn't enough.
1:21 is when the song starts.
Or just listen to the intro and learn something! ;-)
@@walkernick86 or we can use that time stamp to move past the opening we've seen like 10x times. I'm sure most people dont listen to this just once.
Slaps.
So happy to find you via EBS friends. I hope we can reconnect. Your work is amazing, absolutely gorgeous! I've been a fan of this musical genre for years. Maybe it was life in Lodge, 1974? :-)
He has the sexiest voice of any man. ;v;
Do you have a cd I could buy? I want to buy my dad a copy!! Lovely voice! What an amazing man!
Linxy Wun Wav files of the Virtual Hymn Sing are currently being created and will be available on my website soon. There are several other CDs currently available. Thank you.
@@DavidCoffinMusic thank you so much for your reply! I am ever so grateful for that! I'll keep my eyes peeled! Take care! ❤
I've gotta ask, who is Nelson and what context was this song written in?
Non sibi sed patriae Inscribed over the doors at Naval Academy Chapel
I need Blood Red Roses or I might actually not survive.
Kathryn Oleson Have you seen the movie Blow the Man Down? It’s on Amazon Prime.
A fan ye have, then…
Who is the one mutant that disliked this?
Fergie & Jesus?
More like Ronnie Drew & Seán Dagher.
Outstanding!
