I hear this song every day. I don't know why but this song fills my soul. Your voice is just wonderful and touches me very deeply. Thank God for this gift of touching souls because I am not talking about lyrics but about intense talent.
Listen for a moment, lads, and hear me tell my tale How o'er the sea from England shore, I was condemned to sail The jury found me guilty, sir, and said the judge, said he "For life, Jim Jones, I sentence you, across the stormy sea" "Take my tip before you ship to join the iron gang Don't be too gay in Botany Bay or else you'll surely hang; Or else you'll surely hang," says he, "And after that, Jim Jones High up upon the gallows tree, the crows will pick your bones." "You'll have no chance of mischief there, remember what I say They'll flog the poachin' out of you out there in Botany Bay." Waves were high upon the seas, the wind approached in gales I'd rather drowned in misery than come to New South Wales The waves were high upon the seas when the pirates came along But the soldiers on our convict ship were full five hundred strong They opened fire and somehow drove that pirate ship away I'd rather join that pirate ship than gone to Botany Bay And one dark night, when everything is quiet in the town I'll kill you bastards one and all, I'll gun the floggers down Give them all little shot, remember what I say They'll yet regret they sent Jim Jones in chains to Botany Bay
Even as a beginner guitar player, I would love it if there were a tab for this version out there that I could work up to learning. It's the best guitar arrangement I've heard. So pretty. The singer has such a lovely voice, too.

I watch this video from time to time and enjoy listening to it. But I have not seen the rest of their videos until now. I just realized they haven't had any activity for almost 6 years and I think this is very strange! I don't know much about music, but this one is amazing! What happened to them? Does anyone know about them?
Genuinely the best cover. Janet Devlinesque tones in your voice. My main compliment is your voice is crisp. Lyrics were the clearest I've heard, beautiful voice. A lot of the covers seems autotuned and artificial. This cover is great. Great job from the guitarist.
Это круто! Я тоже убегу из своей тюрьмы!!! Хороший будет им урок...Будут помнить. В России есть народная песня про парня которого везут в тюрьму, но он не боится, пусть его боятся. @

This is beautiful, the classic style is still there and it's the best cover of this song I have heard.
The guitarist is on fire!
Great version.

The waves were high upon the seas when the pirates came along
But the soldiers on our convict ship were full five hundred strong
They opened fire and somehow drove that pirate ship away
I'd rather join that pirate ship than gone to Botany Bay
And one dark night, when everything is quiet in the town

"Jim Jones at Botany Bay" complete and correct translation into Russian by PhD Valery Timofeev, 2020: Джим Джонс в Ботани Бэй. Баллада австралийских каторжан, переведена слово за слово именно так, чтобы можно было петь по-русски с полным сохранением смысла и поэтической красоты первобытной австралийской поэзии англо-австралийских колодников. "Джим Джонс в Ботани-Бэй"
Эй, парни, слушай мой рассказ, недолго говорить,
Как от английских берегов, пришлось за море плыть.
«Виновен» - был вердикт жюри, и мне сказал судья:
«Сослать тебя навек, Джим Джонс, за бурные моря.
Покамест ты не в кандалах - даю совет тебе:
Будь посмирней в Ботани-Бэй, иначе быть в петле.
Да, быть в петле, - сказал он мне: Джим Джонс, ну, а потом,
Костями там на высоте накормишь ты ворон.
Запомни, что я говорю, озорничать не смей.
А браконьерство из тебя прочь вышибут в Ботани-Бэй.
На море ветер поднялся, пираты нам видны,
Нас сторожат пятьсот солдат и все они сильны.
Открыли тут они пальбу, пираты - прочь скорей.
Мне б лучше на пиратский борт, чем плыть в Ботани-Бэй.
Звон кандалов и день и ночь, галерные рабы -
Работаем, блуждаем, мрем, собой наполнив рвы.
Но срок придет, я цепь собью, в лес путь мой далеко -
В отряд лихих бушрейнджеров - «Джек Донахью и Ко».
В глухую ночь, когда кругом все тихо, город спит,
Мучитель каждый и тиран там будет мной убит.
Запомните, что я сказал - тряхну закон сильней,
Заплачут, что Джим Джонс в цепях был послан в Ботани-Бэй.

Yo ho ho pirate's life for whom? For meh!
Have another smoke,
Nice, but too polished for me. Needs more dirt, a less clear pronounciation etc.... at least to match the song from the movie.
Take my teep before you sheep
The crows will peek your bones
Talla mucho las cuerdas y se le esta quemando la cara La interpreracion y la chica muy lindas
I’m 48 I want to be a player and have girlfriends
❤😂they send who?! The Jew ❤😂😅😅❤🎉 funny news
Lose the diminished chord
Oh yeah. Cigarette smoking guitar man. Cool 🙄🙄😳
Her accent takes away from the song. It sounds like half the words are wrong.
Disagree
too weepy
i mean, that's kind of the theme of the song there sunshine
даже я слышу что это гавно гавно
Too many flourishes...not enough rawness. Beautiful voice but not for this song.
ruff and tumble, straightways. like i'm on the sea and not in the church basement any longer.
