There going on tour again next year mate 👍💪

Infinity Games relatable

You got this for your GCSE?! When I did it we had tunes like rag desh and West Side Story 😂

We just used this paper as a practice before attempting Covid GCSEs next week lol

@@samuelgb7834 Hope you did well!

So true 😂😂

No, I believe they wrote this song.

suicideposter Nope. They arranged it and tidied up the lyrics, but it's been around for a while.

Jack Coleman Oh, I see.

suicideposter This song is way older than any of us, it's an old sea shanty.

I think it is a good happy cover, but I prefer the santiano cover

yes i had it in my gcse mock paper!

same here, and now I'm attempting to rewrite it too

Green2Blue _ same , but we never got taught how to answer the question😂like if its our own opinion or not

Avygayle Smith yes, when I sat my first mock I didn't even know that part was going to exist. I have no idea how to write it...

Green2Blue _ yes same, do you have instagram?

Back again in November 2022!

And back yet again in December 2024!

Try the dreadnaughts version

Nash Bridges um, more merchant navy than pirates.

so did I

Do you mean a sea shanty ???

EnosEverything Not again, Dont make this comment chain nonsense, it happend once, now i have ptsd

if you still care yes although i prefer the proper shandy versions if you know what it i mean

"cover" but yeah that version is probably a bit more faithful to the origins. I really like the theatrics of Bellow head though

SpaceJesus2098 Well it's a traditional folk song from over a 100 years ago, so by today's standard yes.

+Alexander Moss Yo homie, these be the uncut lyrics: Away down south where the cocks do crow Way down in Florida The gals they all play the old Banjo And we'll roll the woodpile down Rollin', rollin', rollin' the whole world round That brown gal o' mine's down the Georgia line And we'll roll the woodpile down When I was a young man in my prime I'd clench them yeller girls two at a time We'll roll 'em high and we'll roll 'em low We'll heave 'em up and away we'll go It's rouse and bust 'er is the cry A black man's wage is never high Oh, one more heave, and that'll do For we're the bullies to kick her through

***** Ahem, have you ever listened to rap music? The aforementioned lyrics are comparatively mild.

+Sir Church - isn't that an oxymoron?

+SpaceJesus2098 Or try the Beatles "Run for Your Life" "I'd rather see you dead little girl than to be with another man". If you want truly offensive lyrics...

+Sir Church WAY TOO MUCH BRASS! This is The Salvation Army meets the Pogues!

Agree with you there

anyone who criticises the approach of Bellowhead really needs to see them live ! I had the pleasure of seeing them on stage on 4 occasions including their farewell tour date at the winding wheel in Chesterfield. a great loss to the live music scene . . ..we shall not see there like again

Wholehearted disagreement. This isn't music for the sake of preservation, it's music for the sake of elation. Just let yourself get into it; forget the nonsense. It's also insanity to suggest brass wouldn't have featured in historic performance of these tunes. We literally have hundreds of accounts describing exactly that.

Folk music always was and indeed should always be in a state of evolution, songs were not written to become a "Cultural Artifact" but to entertain and inform the listener, Malian music became the Blues, became Rock n Roll, similar music became Mento in Jamaica and became Reggae, all with cross pollination and a desire to please the listener, just be glad that the old songs have a new life, though I'm sure some people probably got annoyed 150 years ago when somebody played "John Barlycorn" on the newfangled piano.

What the fuck is wrong with you?
