That's a fantastic way to describe it. I told my wife about this comment before playing the song and she thought "thrust" was a weird adjective, but when I played the song she completely understood.
@@sailingavocet nope, life onboard a warship is nothing compared to life on merchant ships, both are completely different, not saying one is better or harder than another, but life in the Royal Navy for me is a completely different way of life than merchant
I like how they kept the lyrics "when I was just a LAD" because it rhymes with "the food was always bad." But if they wanted to, it could be changed to "lass" and make it rhyme with "the food tasted like ass."

I don't have any good stories but I used to play assassins creed black flag all the time around my little sister, and because of me singing shanties and her watching me play she aced a random test about old ships.

In case, anyone is interested in what they mean when they say: "The food was always bad". Back then the main food supply consisted of biscuits called Hard tack. They were based of flour and water, with a little salt. They would be stored in large barrels and brought along for journeys which often took months . They were as their name suggests, extremely tough and dense. It was said that trying to eat one raw would likely have ended with that sailor breaking a tooth. Therefore, they were often dunked in water, soups or beer before being eaten. Along the way they would often get infected with bugs and larvae, which could result in the entire supply getting destroyed, leaving the sailor hungry for weeks. Other foodstuffs would have been salted fish or meat. Or in the case of my ancestors; the legendary dish Surströmming (Fermented herring). A dish that was never meant to be delicious, just something which could be stored for a long time without going bad.
Love these little historical gems! Allow me to add to this a bit: Water, ironically, was scarce aboard ships because it often would start tasting of a barrel and would sometimes get contaminated with diseases from the wood. This is part of the reason drunkedness was rampant because the thing they had left to drink after the water was either gone or contaminated was Rum, which was cheaper than wine at the time. The drinking of little water and excessive alcohol led to dehydration, made worse from salty air, nonstop sun, and poor diet, which led to a severe lack of essential vitamins, especially vitamin C. This led to fatigue, vomitting, heavy anemia, patchy bleeding wounds on the skin, violent mood swings, and extreme vulnerability to diseases. These symptoms together became known as Scurvy.
The wellerman is the crew that brings the supplies to the workers like the sugar tea and rum it was sent by the weller bros company and they are the ones that they work for, so you where kind of right just a little bit off. I looked it up but it won't let me put the link. If you find something different let me know.😸
another factoid: the sailors also ate salt pork. this was so salty that when the ship’s cook would put it in salt water to make it actually chewable, the salt content was actually *lowered*
AYE!!! My Father and Mother met and wed in the Navy... I am 61. Mom (81) loves this song I sent her. Dad went to Davy Jones locker a decade ago. They both told me to join the Air Frorce. So I became a SSgt Crew Chief on F4 Phantoms....
Well the band is made up almost entirely of Newfoundlanders, which if you know anything about us, as a population we are made up of mostly Irish, Scottish, and English AND we are home to the 1st known Norse settlement in North America. So with that mix I'd say there's a good chance it'd fit into a scene or 2 on something like that
Hi there, one of the many members of the ConFuzzled staff/family, wanted to say what an amazing piece this and how much it made everyone cheer and sing along during our Closing Ceremony!
I'm a huge Shanty fan, 55 years old, and have tremendous respect and admiration for Canada's rich heritage of folk musicians, and I'm embarrassed to say that I was "today many years old" before I ever heard of this gem of a band. Wow. Am I glad I heard about DHB on TikTok. I'll be spending the next few evenings binging your TH-cam channel...
Hands down best song for sweeping a floor, has so much energy behind it you might as well dosey doe with your broom! Also really good for going on a speed walk or on an adventure!
I actually really like the last section. The fact that as technology progresses things will change and never be the same, but then there are some things that will absolutely never change. In some ways a sailor ain't a sailor anymore, but in other ways a sailor will always be a sailor.
Just wanted to drop a comment and say thank you. Ya'll's music makes a 65+ hour work week bearable with the energy and mirth you put into it. Wishing all of you the best.
Yea i will never understand how you can have such viral hits and still sit at 22k subs 8 years later, you guys are awesome and I regularly check for new stuff
I think your version of this song is the best!! I can imagine a ship in the middle of the ocean and the captain enjoying the night with her crew drinking beer and singing in the moonlight 🌙❤
Thank you so much for your kind words💚 We have a new album dropping on June 23rd! If you like, you can pre-save it here: derinaharveyband.lnk.to/waves-of-home
Anyone else because of that girl with the quick change pirate costumes. Full song is amazing ,the energy of the singer ,they’d do an amazing show I reckon
Absolute CLASSIC Quite possible my Favorite Shanty of all time!!! LOVING the almost irish-jig feel this has!!! Brilliant Job!!!!!! Love from Landlocked WY. USA!!
This song is so good. My family own an old sailing boat from hundreds of years ago. It's sad that there aren't many around and ones that are are in museums
I live in Halifax, NS. from time to time we get visits from US super carriers. I can’t help but picture this band doing this song on the deck of the USS Eisenhower with a thousand or so US swabbies all clapping and singing along 🤣🤣🤣
was reading a Pirates of the Caribbean fanfic that has Davy Jones not being evil, he and Calyso had a daughter , a sea nymph, who had a mortal son who had a son. both of the mortal members are named William Turner. but the time span that gets talked about since the immortal 3 of the family are a family for centuries had me thinking of this song.
I'm clearly late to this party, but I'm so glad I've found it. Though my puppy is less happy - he's trying to sleep beside me, and I'm bopping away, making the mattress bounce.
What a cool song I’m a bass player and I can dig covering this piece in my band I love the drive that fiddle player kicks I don’t have one in my band I’m a rocker & im sure my guitar player can transpose the fiddle part & we can put some rocking bite to it. Derina can belt it man I’m an instant fan of these guys
Omg i was looking for this song for so long, but all i remember was the words "my father often told me," and the dance i made for. I found it; I'm so happy
I absolutely love it when something small and precious to you (like this song) suddenly and inexplicably becomes massively popular. It makes me so happy to soo.
I'm a fan of the Cornish Folk Singers "Fisherman's Friends, they do a very good version of this song which I have liked for ages. This version by the Derina Harvey Band however, absolutely nails it.
When I hear this song, I imagine one of the new recruits gets pushed onto stage to start the next shanty at a bar the crew is at for the night. Him growing up, worked on a ship with his father as he told him all these things about being a sailor, but at the turn of the 20th century a lot of these things stopped being true due to the rapidly changing technological climate. He laments that a sailor isn't a sailor anymore (and complains about some of the stuff he isn't allowed to do on the ship he could do on his father's) but realizes it doesn't matter and he is just as much a sailor even with new technology.
TikTok led me to searching Sea Shanty playlist on Spotify, and my god I absolutely LOVE yall's work. Everything from the hella powerful vocals, to the great instrumentals. Look forward to hopefully one day, post-COVID, seeing a life performance!
@@derinaharveyband3469 you guys are my absolute favorite band ever. I've been thinking about doing one of your songs when I build up the courage to audition for American idol
I image a modern teenager getting sent to a medieval fantasy realm and using this song to explain to a group of pirates what sailing’s like back in their world
Her voice has thrust. Rarely have I ever felt so propelled by a singer and band than by this lot!
That's a fantastic way to describe it. I told my wife about this comment before playing the song and she thought "thrust" was a weird adjective, but when I played the song she completely understood.

Since hearing this song in December on TikTik I haven't been able to stop listening to it. Thank you for this awesome song.
Much love from Confuzzled!
💚💚💚💚
I live in Halifax, NS. from time to time we get visits from US super carriers. I can’t help but picture this band doing this song on the deck of the USS Eisenhower with a thousand or so US swabbies all clapping and singing along 🤣🤣🤣
That would be amazing!! 💚
I love this version! The lead singer's voice rocks!
I honestly wanna hear this song with the original singer Nathen evens AND her singing this together! Imagine the harmony!
Thanks! Actually the original version was written and performed by Tom Lewis!
@@derinaharveyband3469 oh! My bad! Sry! I’ve only ever heard this song sung by Nathen evens before my sister showed me this version!
My mom's from PEI and I don't embrace any of that tradition very often, but this song makes me want to break out the spoons or something
was reading a Pirates of the Caribbean fanfic that has Davy Jones not being evil, he and Calyso had a daughter , a sea nymph, who had a mortal son who had a son. both of the mortal members are named William Turner.
but the time span that gets talked about since the immortal 3 of the family are a family for centuries had me thinking of this song.
I'm clearly late to this party, but I'm so glad I've found it. Though my puppy is less happy - he's trying to sleep beside me, and I'm bopping away, making the mattress bounce.
Awww! Amazing!! Thank you!💚💚
What a cool song I’m a bass player and I can dig covering this piece in my band I love the drive that fiddle player kicks I don’t have one in my band I’m a rocker & im sure my guitar player can transpose the fiddle part & we can put some rocking bite to it. Derina can belt it man I’m an instant fan of these guys
Amazing here as a result of Confuzzled, but staying for the vibes
This song is now stuck in my head
If you can't stop smiling you know it's a good song
Just had my toddlers wild out like never before.
Amazing! Haha 💚 Thank you! We have a new album dropping on June 23rd! If you like, you can pre-save it here: derinaharveyband.lnk.to/waves-of-home
My names patrick and im irish, scottish, german, dutch and swedish. I grew up with songs like this specially the great big sea and the irish rovers.
Omg i was looking for this song for so long, but all i remember was the words "my father often told me," and the dance i made for. I found it; I'm so happy
Amazing! We're so glad you found us too! 💚💚
@@derinaharveyband3469 💙💙
You're very very good.
Also love from original Scotland;)
Good lyrics+female vocals+shanties.
Literal perfection.
Thank you so much! 💚
I heard this on tictok now its one of my favorite songs
Yep me too
I absolutely love it when something small and precious to you (like this song) suddenly and inexplicably becomes massively popular. It makes me so happy to soo.
Such a good. Listen to while training for the rmc (Royal mariners commandos
You have a very fantastic wonderful voice. I listen to you all day long. Thank you for sharing your fantastic wonderful talent.
Love the song keep singing

Ain't heard guttural music that hits the soul like that since the pouges!!! Great song!
@@TIMJIMCARNEY1 Thank you! 💚
I'm a fan of the Cornish Folk Singers "Fisherman's Friends, they do a very good version of this song which I have liked for ages. This version by the Derina Harvey Band however, absolutely nails it.
Awesome...
When I hear this song, I imagine one of the new recruits gets pushed onto stage to start the next shanty at a bar the crew is at for the night. Him growing up, worked on a ship with his father as he told him all these things about being a sailor, but at the turn of the 20th century a lot of these things stopped being true due to the rapidly changing technological climate. He laments that a sailor isn't a sailor anymore (and complains about some of the stuff he isn't allowed to do on the ship he could do on his father's) but realizes it doesn't matter and he is just as much a sailor even with new technology.
I'm glad tiktok made me aware of this song. I've listened to it dozens of times in the last week. And this is my favorite version of the song.
TikTok led me to searching Sea Shanty playlist on Spotify, and my god I absolutely LOVE yall's work. Everything from the hella powerful vocals, to the great instrumentals. Look forward to hopefully one day, post-COVID, seeing a life performance!
I'm A METAL HEAD, BUT I LOVE THIS PIRATE STUFF, HOW'S THAT HAPPENING??...
WHAT FUN MUSIC.❤❤
Amazing!! Thanks for listening! 💚💚
Brings back memories of the ship.
I keep listening to this at least 4 times a day 😆 nice booster when I'm cleaning
Thank you for listening!!💚💚
@@derinaharveyband3469 you guys are my absolute favorite band ever. I've been thinking about doing one of your songs when I build up the courage to audition for American idol
@@amberspence8918 That would be such an honour! Be sure to let us know when you go!!💚💚💚
I image a modern teenager getting sent to a medieval fantasy realm and using this song to explain to a group of pirates what sailing’s like back in their world
I heard this song via tiktok/youtube shorts and i love it! Derina Harvey is really good!
Thank you! We have a new album dropping on June 23rd! If you like, you can pre-save it here: derinaharveyband.lnk.to/waves-of-home
