This medley is Chance’s baby he is the Sea shanty guy in Home Free. Ubisoft heard this medley and loved it and approached them with an an amazing opportunity to write a shanty for Skull And Bones which Chance wrote it called Skull And Bones.They just released a video for it .

I love to watch your face while you listen to the music, it is like you can hear and see each note and tone as it is being played. I also love the explanation of the chords and where they lie on the keyboard.

@@SirHairless When I saw them on The Sing-Off, there were two things that stood out, their close harmonies and they knew how to entertain.

There is a live version where you can see Adam setup the loops for the percussion on this song. He uses his fist on the table to get the same effect as Chance on the guitar.

They have a CD called The Sounds of Lockdown which has some of the music they put out during lockdown. Their creativity and drive to put out new music and videos even under less-than-ideal conditions (they were recording their singing parts in their respective closets), really helped a lot of us get through some tough times. I work in healthcare and was quite busy during that time, and their songs were so uplifting during difficult times.

Aye! Check the pinned comment 😅

One of HomeFree’s songs that sounds very simple is their cover of John Mayer’s “In the Blood”. Adam is doing the most basic percussion, just a thump and a slap. Nothing fancy from any of them. But I love how such a simple song can trigger a swell of emotions.

Another person here to recommend that you listen to the Live version. It'll give you a feel how HF sounds live and how the crowd reacts to them. (Professional high-quality live videos are very rare. Cellphone videos -- lots.) Also, I believe HF was surprised when this video went viral. It wasn't a genre that they sang (except Chance). But covid lockdown was a strange time calling for different ways to get through it. BTW, don't feel bad about not knowing all the shanties. I've seen many reactors react to this, and only 2-3 knew all of the shanties. (One lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, natural place for sea shanties.)

Sea shanty you ask, Sir Hairless? See Adam Chance, he loves and writes them. In fact, you can react to a shanty that Chance wrote for a video game company called UbiSoft. The game is called "Skull And Bones" with the shanty being the same name. You can make it a two-part reaction because the (live version) is the performance pitched to UbiSoft that they wanted Chance to write, and the (Lyric version) is the version during gameplay.

You definitely must check out their live version which was recorded professionally. The crowd they had for that concert was HUGE!!❤

Funny story: my Spotify kept throwing this song up as one of the first options every new session. Then I saw them live, and this was one of the songs they sang. I wonder if my Spotify account knew something I didn't... You should check out their live version that they had recorded - it really captures the fun of seeing it live.

Yes a happy and fun song indeed. I knew this song few years ago because many dancing video’s performance in some social media with this song, maybe kind of challenge dancing. And at that time I don’t know yet about Home Free until I searched whose the singer is. It’s really fun music and can move us to dance. Love this song a lot 🥰and thanks to your reaction 🙏🏻

One of my favorite things in this song is Adam's castanets!

I saw them perform this live last night! It’s the perfect encore because everyone in the audience stands, sings along and claps as the tempo gets faster with each song. Just a fabulous way to end an amazing experience. P.S. I enjoyed your reaction, as always, and I love Adam’s castanets!

I learned Drunken Sailor and Santiana (o) years and years ago. The others I heard for the first time during the COVID shanty vid craze. In many folk songs, changes often occur in lyrics because they are learned aurally. The former president of México was actually Antonio López de Santa Anna. I learned the song as Santiano which I rather prefer lyrically because of its assonance with México, go, gold, and snow.

The live version is fantastic. 🇬🇧

Don't know how anyone could not love these guys.❤️❤️❤️

Note that the last few lines of the last shanty, paid homage to the previous ones!

I love these guys. It's amazing to me as a musician myself to hear 5 people with perfect pitch. Acapella is hard enough as is, let alone, 5 singers who can change keys, and tempo, recording separately cause of Covid.

Santiniana is my favorite, too! Something about the beat & Austin's voice. 😊

I appreciated your reference to the “arr.” There’s another possibility, too. Here we have a “Talk Like a Pirate” Day, this year it’s September 19th.

@tapashe9239

Ай бұрын

I also want a full length Santiana badly.

Sea Shanties are shipboard work songs, and are not specifically pirate related. I'm old, so I wasn't using TikTok, and the only one that I had heard before this medley was Drunken Sailor, heard in a harbor tavern scene in a 1950s black and white episode of Sherlock Holmes (Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruce). I, too, love Adam's castanets.

Most of the tik tok videos were made to their version. If you go and watch some of those old dances you can tell because you can clearly hear Tim ‘s low notes. That’s what made this one go viral

Sea Shanties have been popular (especially in pubs and bars) in New England since the whaling days. The work songs have such strong rhythms and simple words that allow any motley crew to join in, the choruses at least. The extended use of Tim's bass and Adam's creative "castanets" added great flavor. The commentary on the chords enriched my appreciation.

As always you video explains so well everything that we hear. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and love of music with us.

#HOMEFREE....amazing!

This is so much fun. Adam's castanets are absolutely my favorite thing about it. The first time I heard it I had to back up to make sure I wasn't imagining them. The live video of this is great and gives you a good idea of what their concerts (otherwise known as parties) are like.

Tim was dressed as "Jack Sparrow" , Chance was dressed as "Steve Zissou" from the movie "The Life Acquatic with Steve Zissou", Rob was dressed as "Smee" from "Peter Pan", Austin was dressed as "Sinbad" and I don't remember what Adam's costume was. It was also a specific character, I believe.

This is their now their final song, in the encore. And it’s a great choice. The lead is pretty well divided between Chance, Rob and Austin. But Tim and Adam do some interesting things too. (Yes you can hear Adam do the crashing wave sounds in Santiana) Most of the crowd is standing and singing along. That it’s not complex, makes it easy to join in with them. The increasing tempo builds excitement. And the way they summarize all five songs at the end makes a satisfying conclusion.

Another great analysis, Sir! Three HF songs come to mind still for filthy harmonies: Brothers In Arms, Go Rest High On That Mountain, and Take Me Home Country Roads. Another personal favorite that features Chance on lead is “I Can’t Outrun You”. I look forward to your next reaction , whatever the song may be.

Really enjoyed watching you react to this. So much fun, isn't it.

Do not feel bad about not knowing those last shanty's, I don't think many of us did know about them before this medley. Adam's castanets, like his "no-monica", (Take a listen to "Ain't Goin' Down til the Sun Comes up for a couple of fun solos with the "no-monica"), sound is simply amazingly accurate. How he can be so fast at producing those sounds is mind boggling. What I was impressed most by was the ending of the medley - They took us back through all the different shanty's in reverse order as sung until they brought it all back to the last one again to end it. Overall, an amazing arrangement by Adam Chance and recorded under a difficult conditions.

who but Adam would even think to do castanets - at that speed?

Fun fact: the shanty "Leave her, Johnny" was specifically written in the 1830s by a time traveler from the 21st century to try to warn a fellow pirate of impending doom.

I just wanted to second the recommendation for the Longest Johns, if you want to hear some more well done sea shanties, they're one of Adam Chance's favourite shanty groups, and they inspired this version of Santiana.

Adam was GREAT with the percussion! Wow! Love the castinets he added in, and all the synchopation! 💖

Nah, not just you.

This video became viral primarily in Asia where it was used in TicToc dance challenges. People in other parts of the world also used the song for dance challenges. It was because of the video's popularity that Ubisoft contacted them to create a sea shanty for Skull and Bones their game in development. Chance loves sea shanties. He was the one who persuaded Home Free to do the original sea shanty medley during lockdown. So naturally Chance was the one who wrote the sea shanty Skull and Bones for Ubisoft's game. Personally, I think Home Free's video of a live performance of The Sea Shanty Medley is better than the original lockdown video. The crowd is electrifying with its enthusiasm. Home Free sounds better live.

I love "derranged Adam" !! Perfect description 😂😂

Chance seems able to talk these guys into very entertaining videos. Yes, they surely did keep us entertained during lockdown. All the videos they did were the best part of lockdown! I enjoy your breakdowns of all the “filthy” harmonies they do. I’ve come to expect that slight ear irritation and then the resolve. I’ve gotten so that I would prefer to listen to music and not turn on the TV. It’s been a delightful time, Sir. 🎶 Cyd

Your videos have helped me understand why I love them so much.

Thanks for the lesson, Sir. Loved it. Learned stuff. Habitual factoid... I would say Chance and Rob are more New England whalers from the north. Adam and Austin are Southern pirates. Austin's from Georgia. Georgia has a little island off Savannah called Tybee which was a pirate haven. From Savannah down the coast of Florida is all pirate county. Tybee has a pirate fest every Columbus Day where the entire town goes pirate. It's so much fun. Even the road signs say ARRR THERE BE TRAFFIC.

We have to give credit where credit is due. Thanks to "Ubisoft for Assassin's Creed Black Flag", which inspired these sea shanties to become big again. Because of that we have a variety of groups and singers who jumped on the shanty band wagon. Gotta love it ❤!!!

This is so much fun to listen to! Once again the harmonies were fantastic and Adams Rupps ability to make that castanet sound was amazing! The sound of the very end is very similar to the flyby sound he makes at the end of God bless the USA! That would be another great song for you to react to!

They sound just as amazing doing this live! I was lucky in that I was able to see them live as the current group that they are and they did this song. It was definitely a crowd favorite! Also.. I’m going to keep asking for you to react to/teach us about Austin’s rendition of Le Mis “Bring Him Home” Honestly… I think you will LOVE it! I can’t afford Patreon, but I would pay for that one if there is a way for a payment on a single song! It’s totally worth it. Thanks again for a great video! ❤

Thank you! I enjoy your analysis, be it a straightforward Shanty or a complex chorale-type arrangement :)

A great idea from Chance who likes a lot of those Sea shanty songs and in my opinion really has the voice and appearance for them. Besides each having their great part in this medley, I really love the beatboxing with castanets sound! It was done in the TikTok style, which is why I regularly see / hear come by at the TikTok videos. The live version is great too

Great analysis as usual. I always admire how much stamina it takes to perform this medley. They always perform this as an enchore on their live shows.

I only knew one shanty to begin with. Chance loves shanties and brought the idea to the boys during Covid. Tim didn’t move much as he was standing in a boat. You can tell Austin majored in musical theater with the sword (think it’s a family members sword). You’re about the only reactor to hear both the castanets and the water sound that Adam does in the last song. This went viral during Covid and attracted the game maker Ubisoft to them. They asked them to write a new shanty for their game Skull and Bones. Chance wrote a banger and you can see the video (along with a lyric video and a short live video they did for the Ubisoft crowd). There is music in it (which I think Ubisoft wanted). It’s great! Good reaction SH. Yeah I liked that last shanty….you can dance to it. 😍😄

One of my favourite pics of me as a kid (around 7 years old) was a pirate costume made "from home" stuffs - was a mighty fine outfit if I do say so myself I guess you'll need to find your local swimming pool and sing the shanties next to that

So one of my 2 I wish I had video taped it moments was a few years ago when my son who was maybe 51/2 at the time and obsessed with yodeling and my niece who was maybe 41/2 at the time and was obsessed with opera had decided that Wellerman was their current favorite song. They were running around the house in a circuit pretending to be chickens while belting out the song. In case you are wondering, an operatically yodeled sea shanty sung in chicken squawks is absolutely as funny as it sounds. I was cooking dinner at the time and my hands were messy and I was just grateful they were keeping themselves occupied so I figured I would just tape it the next time they did it (because yes they had done it before just not for as long) and so I didn’t tape it. I loved this but I will never be able to listen to the Wellerman again without a part of my brain adding operatic yodeling chickens. 😂

Btw I can't find a comment you left on a video of mine quite recently...it was a long comment so I was waiting til I have a bit more time to properly read it and respond; have been looking for it but can't find it! Do you remember which video it was on?

@@SirHairless You're welcome, Sir! No, I didn’t know any them… my knowledge on sea shanties is a shameful-full zero😅As for that long comment, I ended up deleting it because I noticed you skipped it, so, I thought it could contain some kind of undesirable/unnecessary information or some kind of misunderstanding (sometimes I write weird things without noticing it can mean something completely different from what I was trying to say)... Sorry for creating a mess!

@@Maria...-mo5qm Haha that's you and me both with the little/no sea shanty knowledge Oh no, I didn't skip it for any reasons like that! I was just in a hurry when I was going through the comments and I wanted to give some time to your comment, so I left it as unmarked (from my perspective, I can filter comments based on if I've responded to them/"loved" them or not, so by not responding it means I can find it at a later date when I look for it 😊) ! Every few days (or whenever I get a free hour here or there) I go through comments I've not reacted to, which is how I try to make sure I've reacted to every comment I'm sorry you thought I was ignoring it due to bad reasons I noticed your comment contained some recommendations, which is why I wanted to dedicate time to reading your comment - in case it was something I could watch there and then when I went back to it! In future, if I 'ignore' your comment, it's not out of bad intentions! I will always aim to get back to it at a later time to respond or react - even if it's a number of days Naturally, as I release more videos I receive more comments, so some might get lost in the ether, but I do my best!

@@SirHairless You are such a lovely person, Sir! Thank you very much for taking some of your precious time to explain all those details - it clearly shows a lot of consideration to your audience😊I hope you understand that I only excluded that comment because I didn’t want to unintentionally create any potential weird situation on your channel (I respect your work a lot). Then, I’m going to check if I have a copy of that comment saved on my computer and, if I find it, I’ll include it again in the comment section of that video for you to read when you have time. I thank you again for everything and I wish you a wonderful weekend! 🤗
