Thank you for history lessons in your songs. I've learnt that J. E. Oglethorpe (1696 - 1785) was a British general, MP, and founder of the Colony of Georgia. He is also known as a social reformer, the author of a plan to relocate representatives of the poor in Great Britain, primarily prisoners of debt prisons, to the New World. So Annabel was one of them.
As some people asked for it, here are the lyrics, taken of the booklet from the album: I met a lad from Donegal Heave away, haul away, I got pregnant by the fall ´n hauled away to Georgia I got jailed for all my sins Heave away, haul away, Had me branded on my skin n´hauled away to Georgia My name was Annabel I say My name was Annabel But now I´m resting in the ground in a grave in Georgia I´ve been drinking far too much Heave away, haul away, Banker´s got me in his clutch ´n hauled away to Georgia Whisky´s not my only vice Heave away, haul away Lost my farm on card and dice, got hauled away to Georgia My name was Annabel.... Her name was Annabel... Brick for brick and stone for stone Heave away, haul away, building George a brand new home So haul away to Georgia Picking cotton for his vest Heave away, haul away, When indebted there´s no rest Haul away to Georgia My name was Annabel... Her name was Annabel... Ambushed by the Yemassee Heave away, haul away Pinned an arrow to my knee when hauled away to Georgia Doctor came into my tent Heave away, haul away, took me leg an´off he went Oh, haul away to Georgia My name was Annabel... Her name was Annabel... Fever´s gotten to my head Heave away, haul away The Devil´s sleeping in my bed Oh, haul away to Georgia The be no drinking when I´m gone Heave away, haul away, Oglethorpe he snatched our rum Oh, haul away to Georgia My name was Annabel... Her name was Annabel...
I like to imagine that all the outlaws and poor souls of history meet at that beach to have a good time together after their death, telling each other their life stories
That ending scene gave me the biggest chill down my spine, Annabel's ghost, standing over the little girl was a ghastly surprise! The whole time the child was on top of Annabel's long lost grave, listening to her sad story through the medium of a shell...makes you wonder, all the downtroddend folk of the past, their names and stories lost through the passage time, ye might be standing over their graves and never know it.
I love the music of Ye Banished Privateers. And I found them through Spotify just wanting to get my mind of my depressing job. (I hate my job but am stuck there cause I need the money) But ever since it is Ye Banished Privateers who get me through my day! Annabelle and Capstan Shanty are two favorites. Thank you guys, for making my days at work bearable!
... just love it - when I first heard it, I was immediately touched - and now listening on your new album and seeing this wonderful video - it's so awesome ...
Nobody can compete with Alestorm but this folk music is brilliant and has hit a different market. It will be successful in a differnent way to Alestorm.
I don't know, Lagerstein and Dread Crew of Oddwood have released fantastic albums on par with Alestorm. Pirate music is looking pretty darn good recently.
Ghorza Thanks for citing these two, too many people reducing "pirate" inspired music to Alestorm only. Makes me thing of german scene with Knasterbart, Vroudenspil, Santiano (more sailor than pirate songs but still)...
They are amazing. If you have the chance, go see them live. So much energy. You really feel like listening to a pack of drunken pirates. (but in a good sounding way)
Some of my ancestors came to America as pirates and others were privateers during the revolution. I love this band and would love to play a shanty with them some day.
I can imagine travelling the beautiful land of Skellige and happening upon a little camp in the wilderness with these guys around the camp fire singing this song. Old Geralt takes a seat beside them and listens with pure enjoyment.
I love the song and have been wondering what the clip would be like..... It fits the song brilliantly. The intro and outro with the little girl are absolutely awesome!!! Tack !!!
I expected the power of The Legend Of Libertalia. For the first second I was disappointed. Then the song started. Another kind of power. It has needed just one another second to be blown away by this new power and their gained experience.
this song is by far one of the best ive ever heard, the way she sings, the way she portrays her emotions for the video, this woman is by far one of the most amazing singers, the band is amazing as well, they are just so perfect
I met a lad from Donegal Heave away, haul away, I got pregnant by the fall ´n hauled away to Georgia I got jailed for all my sins Heave away, haul away, Had me branded on my skin n´hauled away to Georgia My name was Annabel I say My name was Annabel But now I´m resting in the ground in a grave in Georgia I´ve been drinking far too much Heave away, haul away, Banker´s got me in his clutch ´n hauled away to Georgia Whisky´s not my only vice Heave away, haul away Lost my farm on card and dice, got hauled away to Georgia My name was Annabel.... Her name was Annabel... Brick for brick and stone for stone Heave away, haul away, building George a brand new home So haul away to Georgia Picking cotton for his vest Heave away, haul away, When indebted there´s no rest Haul away to Georgia My name was Annabel... Her name was Annabel... Ambushed by the Yemassee Heave away, haul away Pinned an arrow to my knee when hauled away to Georgia Doctor came into my tent Heave away, haul away, took me leg an´off he went Oh, haul away to Georgia My name was Annabel... Her name was Annabel... Fever´s gotten to my head Heave away, haul away The Devil´s sleeping in my bed Oh, haul away to Georgia The be no drinking when I´m gone Heave away, haul away, Oglethorpe he snatched our rum Oh, haul away to Georgia My name was Annabel... Her name was Annabel...
"There'll be no drinking when I'm gone, Oglethorpe he snatched our rum" is most likely the same Oglethrope who appears in Black Sails as the owner of the Savannah estate, since he was based on a historical figure, the first governer of Georgia, who really used prisoners as workforce.
I came across you guys only a few hours ago & already I'm loving your music!!! I will definitely be purchasing your album, I will introduce this to all my neighbours whether they want to hear it or not :D
-Honey, what did you do today? -Oh, mum, I met that girl! She said her name was Annabel. -That's lovely, sweetie! Where is she now? Did she come back home? -No, she is resting in the ground, in a grave in Georgia.
As I still wrote in another place: It's my favourite video of you and I think it's the most touching and emotional one. And the last scene still gives me shivers! Cudos!
Such emotion and power in a voice. Like holy hell! A voice that makes me seek a cd to share music with other people who haven't a chance to hear. Dayum! So good!
If you look the right places.. Plenty of bands/groups/people who know how to handle an instrument, not just some "run of the mill pop (flop) star" If you like folk(ish) tunes, i would check out Hang Massive, SKÁLD (specially their song Rún ) or Omnia Maybe not metal, but DAMN they know how to play (and kick a party)
The first time I heard this song was at the first YBP concert I've been to (a few days before the release date of their latest album). I didn't really like the song at first because it was slow and kinda sad and I was used to more catchy songs. But Magda's voice gave me goosebumps... Then when the music video came out, I wanted to listen to it again, and that's when I fell in love with it.
When the next video TH-cam got in the playlist comes up and you already think it's some cringy shitty pirate metal again and then this happens. One of he best things I've seen in a while. Woman got some voice there, and a lot of expression in it too. Instant fan.
My God! What a great surprise (I was searching for something different). Fantastic video, awesome performance. I lived on a sailboat for 7 years while sailing around the world and always felt I was born 200 years too late. Arrhh, shiver me timbers, matey!!
Thank you for history lessons in your songs. I've learnt that J. E. Oglethorpe (1696 - 1785) was a British general, MP, and founder of the Colony of Georgia. He is also known as a social reformer, the author of a plan to relocate representatives of the poor in Great Britain, primarily prisoners of debt prisons, to the New World. So Annabel was one of them.
The amount of emotion she manages to put into her voice is incredible. Gives me shivers.
totally agree a couple. years later
Oh you should listen to her in Death of Captain Bellows
It shivers me timbers
That's an irish women for ya
She teared me up ❤️
This was not the song I was looking for, but holy shit I can’t get it out of my head. Beautifully haunting.
Same. Was looking for a old alestorm type band and came across this and I'm so happy I did
Listen to :
You and Me and the Devil makes Three.
First Night back in Port.
> Expected Pirate Metal
> Got Pirate Folk
I'm happy with this.
Same lol
Excited to see them at WWN. 5 times or so :D
A Surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
I remember when they advertised by uploading their first album to The Pirate Bay
Pirate is a bit like "In Space!/Space!" when you add it.. things get better.
Try it!
As some people asked for it, here are the lyrics, taken of the booklet from the album:
I met a lad from Donegal
Heave away, haul away,
I got pregnant by the fall
´n hauled away to Georgia
I got jailed for all my sins
Heave away, haul away,
Had me branded on my skin
n´hauled away to Georgia
My name was Annabel I say
My name was Annabel
But now I´m resting in the ground
in a grave in Georgia
I´ve been drinking far too much
Heave away, haul away,
Banker´s got me in his clutch
´n hauled away to Georgia
Whisky´s not my only vice
Heave away, haul away
Lost my farm on card and dice,
got hauled away to Georgia
My name was Annabel....
Her name was Annabel...
Brick for brick and stone for stone
Heave away, haul away,
building George a brand new home
So haul away to Georgia
Picking cotton for his vest
Heave away, haul away,
When indebted there´s no rest
Haul away to Georgia
My name was Annabel...
Her name was Annabel...
Ambushed by the Yemassee
Heave away, haul away
Pinned an arrow to my knee
when hauled away to Georgia
Doctor came into my tent
Heave away, haul away,
took me leg an´off he went
Oh, haul away to Georgia
My name was Annabel...
Her name was Annabel...
Fever´s gotten to my head
Heave away, haul away
The Devil´s sleeping in my bed
Oh, haul away to Georgia
The be no drinking when I´m gone
Heave away, haul away,
Oglethorpe he snatched our rum
Oh, haul away to Georgia
My name was Annabel...
Her name was Annabel...
Thank you man!!
Thank you so much! With love from Russia ;)
thank you from Argentina
Bump!
Thanks for your work from Ukraine 💙💛
I like to imagine that all the outlaws and poor souls of history meet at that beach to have a good time together after their death, telling each other their life stories
Well that's just... given me some major D&D inspiriation, thanks.
That ending scene gave me the biggest chill down my spine, Annabel's ghost, standing over the little girl was a ghastly surprise! The whole time the child was on top of Annabel's long lost grave, listening to her sad story through the medium of a shell...makes you wonder, all the downtroddend folk of the past, their names and stories lost through the passage time, ye might be standing over their graves and never know it.
Ifn ghosts were athing the world would be full of them buggers.
The guy with the blond hair and beard playing the violin was my music teacher in 2019
No he wasn’t 😂
Whaaaat
Seriously? Thats cool as fuck
I love the music of Ye Banished Privateers. And I found them through Spotify just wanting to get my mind of my depressing job. (I hate my job but am stuck there cause I need the money) But ever since it is Ye Banished Privateers who get me through my day! Annabelle and Capstan Shanty are two favorites. Thank you guys, for making my days at work bearable!
❤️❤️❤️
You sir have an amazing taste in music
Beautiful. Grace O'Malley, Mary Read, Anne Bonny, and a few others are probably waitin' to meet y'all.
I did not expect this to be on Napalm Records. I can gladly say it's good to see some adapting going on :P
... just love it - when I first heard it, I was immediately touched - and now listening on your new album and seeing this wonderful video - it's so awesome ...
Not gonna lie, I was expecting an discount Alestorm, but this is actually fantastic. Very original.
Same here! Great surprise.
I don't know what I was expecting but it wasnt this. This was a recommendation from a family member. I'm so glad he recommended it to me
Alestorm are a discount this xD
Agreed, I'm glad they aren't anything like Alestorm.....they do weird stuff with anchors ⚓. Lol
The difference is ale storm are "swag pirates" these guys are traditional.
That blackbeard guy always make an atmosphere for me.
Ondřej Čeřovský the one and only blackpowder pete
I expected a new pirate metal band, something like good old Alestorm, but I was pleasantly surprised..
You should definitely listen to their two previous album then, still not "metal" but there's some more "energic" songs if I may say :)
Nobody can compete with Alestorm but this folk music is brilliant and has hit a different market. It will be successful in a differnent way to Alestorm.
I don't know, Lagerstein and Dread Crew of Oddwood have released fantastic albums on par with Alestorm. Pirate music is looking pretty darn good recently.
Ghorza Thanks for citing these two, too many people reducing "pirate" inspired music to Alestorm only.
Makes me thing of german scene with Knasterbart, Vroudenspil, Santiano (more sailor than pirate songs but still)...
James G: Matter of taste really, I like both and for me they are different enough to not warrant any comparison.
my theory is that the child in the video is the descendant of the child Annabel had with that lad from Donegal
Magdas voice is so strong and amazing.
They are amazing. If you have the chance, go see them live. So much energy. You really feel like listening to a pack of drunken pirates. (but in a good sounding way)
I second this, seeing them live is an absolute treat
Something different on this channel. I like it.
Can we fucking get a 1h version of this? Coming back every 5 minutes to replay it is destroying my tantra.
Some of my ancestors came to America as pirates and others were privateers during the revolution. I love this band and would love to play a shanty with them some day.
Even had seen notes and documents stating an association with big name pirates like Anne Bonny and Mary Reed.
I can imagine travelling the beautiful land of Skellige and happening upon a little camp in the wilderness with these guys around the camp fire singing this song. Old Geralt takes a seat beside them and listens with pure enjoyment.
I love The Witcher 3
Or going into a tavern in skyrim or something and just hearing this for the loot players that are always in the taverns
Hmm.
Adelle Thompson maybe but I gotta be that guy it’s lute
@@silversurferdelta Fuck
Got the CD yesterday, was well worth the wait. Thank you for another great album!
This is fucking beautiful
Oh wow, didn't expect that this would be so beautiful.
I got goosebumps from listening 0.0
Nebucatnetzer totally agree
Oh wow! Someone else had the same reaction.
The suits are sublime. Crazy
So great... can't get this song out of my head, can't stop singing... I love it...
Yes, I hear it in my head over and over since a week now. It's very strong & touching.
Now my favorite pirate ballad. I raise a tankard to Annabel!
I love the song and have been wondering what the clip would be like..... It fits the song brilliantly. The intro and outro with the little girl are absolutely awesome!!! Tack !!!
I came to some tears when I first listened to this song. It is hauntingly beautiful. A real pirate ballade.
I'm in love with this band
Me too
So am I
She's so beautiful, combined with the banging tune it pulls me in everytime. I can't _not_ listen to this tragic tale
Good work. I come back to this every few months.
I expected the power of The Legend Of Libertalia.
For the first second I was disappointed. Then the song started. Another kind of power. It has needed just one another second to be blown away by this new power and their gained experience.
The Napalm guys are smart to work with this guys, even the heavyest metal head needs songs like this
I have not been able to stop listening to this in 24 hours since I first discovered it.... Absolutely beautiful song!!
I only listen to stuff like ensiferum, finntroll etc........and since yesterday to YE BANISHED PRIVATEERS
adding this to the list of bands I wished I discovered sooner but will now binge for the next month, thanks youtube recommendations
this song is by far one of the best ive ever heard, the way she sings, the way she portrays her emotions for the video, this woman is by far one of the most amazing singers, the band is amazing as well, they are just so perfect
She is repeating the same tones for 3 minutes, what's great about this song
@@j.s.4819 you cant see it i guess, you must be some emotionless droid or something brainwashed by this newer music
@@j.s.4819 wanna hear a song with the same lyrics on repeat? on the railroad by colm r mcguiness
Idk how this ended up in my "Music" playlist, but I'm glad it's there.
Pretty sure I'm easily 20 or 30 views of this song over the last few years. Love it. Anyone else?
Omg it's amazing, so new, lyrics so cool, everything so different
I met a lad from Donegal
Heave away, haul away,
I got pregnant by the fall
´n hauled away to Georgia
I got jailed for all my sins
Heave away, haul away,
Had me branded on my skin
n´hauled away to Georgia
My name was Annabel I say
My name was Annabel
But now I´m resting in the ground
in a grave in Georgia
I´ve been drinking far too much
Heave away, haul away,
Banker´s got me in his clutch
´n hauled away to Georgia
Whisky´s not my only vice
Heave away, haul away
Lost my farm on card and dice,
got hauled away to Georgia
My name was Annabel....
Her name was Annabel...
Brick for brick and stone for stone
Heave away, haul away,
building George a brand new home
So haul away to Georgia
Picking cotton for his vest
Heave away, haul away,
When indebted there´s no rest
Haul away to Georgia
My name was Annabel...
Her name was Annabel...
Ambushed by the Yemassee
Heave away, haul away
Pinned an arrow to my knee
when hauled away to Georgia
Doctor came into my tent
Heave away, haul away,
took me leg an´off he went
Oh, haul away to Georgia
My name was Annabel...
Her name was Annabel...
Fever´s gotten to my head
Heave away, haul away
The Devil´s sleeping in my bed
Oh, haul away to Georgia
The be no drinking when I´m gone
Heave away, haul away,
Oglethorpe he snatched our rum
Oh, haul away to Georgia
My name was Annabel...
Her name was Annabel...
Gato Bardo Malkavian
Thank You❤
Arrow to the knee...
Btw I dig this band.
thanks for the lyrics and the clan of the moon is my favourite as well
Thanks. My and my family are trying to learn this and hey very put me on vocals and I've been looking for the lyrics and couldn't find hem anywhere
Great presentation I'd like to know the backstory
This track was great on Wacken when they were there last month. Nearly everyone helping the chorus with the Heave Away, Haul Away.
"There'll be no drinking when I'm gone, Oglethorpe he snatched our rum" is most likely the same Oglethrope who appears in Black Sails as the owner of the Savannah estate, since he was based on a historical figure, the first governer of Georgia, who really used prisoners as workforce.
The song is about penal migration to georgia. Oglethorpe took with mostly debted prisoners hence the lines of banker, debt, lost her farm etc : )
you guys & girls are truly pirates, i love it!
I came across you guys only a few hours ago & already I'm loving your music!!! I will definitely be purchasing your album, I will introduce this to all my neighbours whether they want to hear it or not :D
Saw you on tour with Visions Of Atlantis - immediately fell in love with your sound. Very, very cool!!!
-Honey, what did you do today?
-Oh, mum, I met that girl! She said her name was Annabel.
-That's lovely, sweetie! Where is she now? Did she come back home?
-No, she is resting in the ground, in a grave in Georgia.
Plot twist, the mother was dead all along.
Sad 😢
This has become one of my favorite songs!
me met that beautiful crew down in the rainy hell of wacken. would never forget dem ol
They should play the folk festival in New Hampshire
!!
Wow! this really surprised me, expected something totally different! This is really great!
My 3 year old sons loves this song I haven't managed to video him singing it yet. Love you guys your awesome. 😘😘
I was looking for metal music but listened this all the way to the end. This was very nice
I just googled who these lads and lasses are who will play on the WGT this year... and I got instantly enchanted. Can't wait to see them there! :)
As I still wrote in another place: It's my favourite video of you and I think it's the most touching and emotional one. And the last scene still gives me shivers! Cudos!
Such emotion and power in a voice. Like holy hell! A voice that makes me seek a cd to share music with other people who haven't a chance to hear. Dayum! So good!
I was expecting some Pirate Metal, but, this is freaking _pijudo_, it's just beautiful!
Amazing group! loved working with them at Elfia.
This is real music. You guys are creating the real music of out time. I am shaking this is so beautiful.
If you look the right places.. Plenty of bands/groups/people who know how to handle an instrument, not just some "run of the mill pop (flop) star"

Then when the music video came out, I wanted to listen to it again, and that's when I fell in love with it.
best music video I've ever watched! I'm going back to listen to every song by this group!
This kind of reminds me of South Australia. It's a great sea shanty.
fantastic song and video !!! at the end it gives me the chills !!
I've become addicted... To pirate and warrior music... This is beautiful
Great voice. Love this!
Love the little wink she does when she says "whiskey's not my only vice." I feel ya.
I've been waiting for this to be uploaded, finally!
holy shit.... There's few music that can get me to shed a tear. that song did. Impressive.
Wow. That voice.
Watched the video and bought the album! 😁
This was just awesome and beautiful.
so nice and well performed iam in tears right now thank you
It is a very nice video, which reflects the feelings of the song wonderfully
Simple song, but wonderful production and performance.
Great storytelling video!
Beautiful song
This song is absolutely great! And Magda is wonderful!
Uma excelente banda... Ouvindo aqui no interior do Brasil...
You guys were amazing at festival Mediaval, hope to see you soon again!! (and I hope nobody got injured :D)
This is the most underrated thing i’ve ever seen

really glad you liked it
Meddl Nightgaunt, du hast hervorragenden Geschmack
Not gonna lie, this gave me Blackmore's Night vibes. Which is a damn good thing.
I was so not expecting this! Such a neat feel to it.
Its long time when I had to listen to some song for five times without break. But now I must.
I love the way this builds crescendos then descends
God damn she has an amazing vocal range.
love this song, and the last shot of the video is amazing
I love it!! Not just because my name is Annabel of course.. I really have to listen to more of these songs, damn!
Is no one gonna comment on the fact that she took an arrow to the knee like a true skyrim guard.
Annabel: " -Skyrim- Georgia belongs to the Nords!"
😁😄

Soo addictive. Some very nice Pirates of the Caribbean vibes in your gorgeous forests of Sverige
❤💜❤😍😍
Awesome, great video and song. I wish they cover one day "here is health to the company" like version in ac black flag :3
Great Band! I have heard this Band in Feuchtwangen 😍
fuckkkkk this is amazing.... the pirate vibe you feel is contangious...
My God! What a great surprise (I was searching for something different). Fantastic video, awesome performance. I lived on a sailboat for 7 years while sailing around the world and always felt I was born 200 years too late. Arrhh, shiver me timbers, matey!!
❤️
I just love her voice.
Whoa. I got chills listening to this. Amazing.
Saw this band last year at the Autumn Moon Festival. This song is very catchy.
muy bueno !!
