@@mgy401 All but a few of the Navy Band members are enlisted; they only have a handful of officers, and none of the performers are civilians. All the vocalists currently on the roster are Petty Officer 1st Class, Chief Petty Officer, or Senior Chief Petty Officer. The service bands recruit from the civilian sector as well as from currently serving members of the service. If you are recruited from the civilian sector you go through basic training the same as all other service recruits, but I believe there is an accelerated promotion schedule.
@@Toimu13 Went to pre-deployment training and they were running the bandsmen through at the same time. The mortuary affairs folks didn't do much fighting, either, but they were still soldiers.
I love every rendition of this song I've ever heard. But this one hits so different. Seeing sailors in their whites performing it so well and with such evident pleasure... 🥰
Although its origins it’s not fully known its believe to be based a wellers rock which is in the Otago harbour. Most likely written by Scottish expats.
"I love they are sound..." (DEEP SIGH) Yet another one who can't get "there," "they're," and "their"---which is the correct "their" needed here---straight.
This song had such a big hype and I heard sooo many versions of it, but this one is my absolute favourite. The lead singer is doing a fantastic job. He clearly feels the song a lot, and this little bit of vocal playfulness just makes it so authentic. You can also see and feel that everyone else involved is just really invested in doing a great job here. Very well done, sailors!
I've been a member of the renaissance festival community for 38 years. I've heard a lot of music, variations, and bands over the years. Even now, my husband plays in a traditional Irish Céilí band, with folk tunes, shanties, and other music from the British Isles thrown in. Your version of "the Wellerman" gave me goosebumps. I agree with another comment that said seeing and hearing actual Navy members in dress Whites (and great voices) made a huge difference in how they see the song. I know that your version is the one for me. Thank you for your hard work and your service.
this is like thee coolest job ever??? you get to be part of an institution like the Navy and wear the uniform but still get to express yourself and show your talent while looking incredible.
1:15 in some versions they say she took that ship in tow, the sailors were the ones following, i love either version and enjoyed this thoroughly, liked subscribed and commented
Thanks to God, Navy never lose faith to meet challenge and never fallen to darkness. Go to the ocean of stars and the stars of the ocean as hopeful journey.
Brilliant stuff! I salute you sailors. One thing though, I don't understand why your navy doesn't allow you to have beards... Other navies, NATO navies, allow it.
The USS Constitution is 'underway, under full sail' about once every one or two decades, but I suppose they could do it during one of the annual turnaround cruises.
The Germans version completely removes all references to whaling. They literally ruined this song by removing its historic context. The German version is shamefully “woke” and they should be ashamed for doing it. It is an insult to the tradition of sea shanties and an historical and musical abomination.
@@douglaszare1215 because they changed the song, its not ignoring everything they have done, its criticizing the one thing in the context of the conversation, you can criticize a point without bringing the entirety of history into the argument, its a historical shanty, that should remain in its original context, we know we dont need to whale anymore, but we can enjoy the original shanty without ramming modern beliefs about it down peoples throats
I would like to request the following song: "Think Of Me" from The Phantom of the Opera Preferably, Amy Broadbent would be the best singer. By the way, I watched the video of The United States Air Force Band - "Think Of Me" from The Phantom of the Opera. Vocals: Adrienne Kling. i am one of the fan of Sea Chanters and i am Japanese living in Hiroshima city

It's good to hear this sung by real sailors.
Are *any* of those “sailors” enlisted?

@@MichaelOnines Thanks for that!
I was in the Army, saw an Army band play once (in a DFac in Iraq). Never saw or heard of them training or fighting.

My face while listening to this was like the guy in the orchestra at 0:36 : 😃
Great performance!
Howd u catch that hahah
Fr XDXD
I was already looking for this comment. I've noticed as well
I totally noticed this as well!
I love every rendition of this song I've ever heard. But this one hits so different. Seeing sailors in their whites performing it so well and with such evident pleasure... 🥰
Except the song is British and tells of the life of merchant sailors, not navy ones. To me this is a bit of a joke and the American accents are weird.
@@williamrees6662agreed, they jump on every bandwagon they can 😂😂😂😂
@@williamrees6662 and these are not even sailors! they're a choir
Outstanding vocal of the shanty. Nice to see traditional songs recorded and performed so well! Great job!
My favorite version is from Nathan Evans and Santiano!
A catchy 18th century whaling folk song from New Zealand. Great version!!
Goes back to British-born Weller brothers Edward, George and Joseph, an later a whaling ship called the "Billy o' Tea"....
Yeah. I believe it's Scottish
1900s and it's not a sea shanty
Although its origins it’s not fully known its believe to be based a wellers rock which is in the Otago harbour. Most likely written by Scottish expats.
The Wellers were suppliers to whalers around Otago of NZ in the 1800's, that is what this song is about
I love they're sound as a group what perfect harmony
"I love they are sound..." (DEEP SIGH) Yet another one who can't get "there," "they're," and "their"---which is the correct "their" needed here---straight.
They had a lot of fun doing this clearly. I generally love seeing service members enjoying their jobs

The Leader Singer gave me goose hairs. I'm ready.... to win !
Wow, what a performance. These people made a wonderful sounding version of this cool song.

i would love to see them in period attire, aboard the constitution and sing this
How do we have rock bands and jazz quartets but not a official Navy Sea Shanty .... CNO be the change you ask of us!
Excellent job! Way to stress the story elements in the lead vocal. Really the best version of this song I’ve heard.
Thank you each for your service.
🤦🤦🤦🤦
I enjoyed your rendition very much.
Respect, powerful performance.
LOVE Alaska and the USA!!!
this is like thee coolest job ever??? you get to be part of an institution like the Navy and wear the uniform but still get to express yourself and show your talent while looking incredible.
Damn straight this is how it’s done in America! Shit. These sailors, especially the men, have some absolute PIPES with this rendition of the song.

Cool. Now play "Pirate of The Caribbean" (Metal covered)
Awesome!!!!! ove this video. You are all wonderful
Their so dramatic, and I love it!
Thanks to God, Navy never lose faith to meet challenge and never fallen to darkness. Go to the ocean of stars and the stars of the ocean as hopeful journey.
Gotta love a good sea shanty
Wonderful - as usual. These sea chanties are fantastic.
This is the best rendition I have heard.
Not the best ive heard, seems weird hearing it sung by Americans 🤔
@@carolesmith2619 In your opinion which version is the best
They sound amazing!!
Absolutely awesome. Thanks for sharing this
Bro HOW did I not see this yet! That was awesome!
Great job. I love this song.
It's so cool!
I like the way you arranged the song, it's like you're “singing through it”.
Beautiful!!!
Beautiful!
one of the best
So cool to see this is my feed! I did musicals with the woman on the right when I was young! :)
Oh I loved this, well done 👏 ❤❤❤

Thish song motivated to join American navy
Very very impressive 👏
That would be vool!
Well done!
Well done, sailors.
EXCELLENT!!
That was awesome! 👍👏🫶
Perfection.
Great job!
How could a Navy choir not weigh in along with the rest of the world! 😁
Outstanding job!
I so want to hear them sing "It's a Good Day to Die", Starship Trooper.
This video is proof that more people doesn't mean more better.
When the theatre kids job the Navy. 💚 Love it.
Brilliant stuff! I salute you sailors. One thing though, I don't understand why your navy doesn't allow you to have beards... Other navies, NATO navies, allow it.
Something you didn't know you needed to hear
this.... is really damn good. bravo squids
The German’s still did it better. Let’s have the Navy Band do it on the USS Constitution during an underway, under full sail.
The USS Constitution is 'underway, under full sail' about once every one or two decades, but I suppose they could do it during one of the annual turnaround cruises.

Really?, all of them are Gold chevron Petty Officers?, when did enlisted ranks get to wear gold belt buckles with dress whites? SM2 Lopez 1974-78
@@eddielopez4706 The look like they are all CPO's. The lead singer looked like a MCPO
Do MUs get to wear summer whites before putting on E-7? I could swear there were some first class crows up there…
U.S. Navy Band!!
I will wait for the rum --GREAT thx rollf
Oh wow!
Demais, essa Banda musical!

Nice song and the Dutch East Indian Company was my family and it has been hazardous to my health.
Bravo Navy🌊, go to Solar ocean🌌
I love navy songs!❤❤
It's not a navy song.
Soon may the Kittyman come!
I was discharged from the Navy 35 years ago. The first thing I thought about when I saw this was why are they outside without their covers on. 😂
I think this is just their propaganda of trying to make up for the commander with the messed up rifle incident, clearly they're still messing up
🤣
Don’t know, I’m in the Drum and Bugle Corps at the Naval academy and the only reason we take ours off is for our Alma Mater
I think the band has a special reg that allows them to not wear it while performing.
0:10 Varys now sneaked into the navy…Probably plotting again…
Always!
SENSACIONAL 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
