I’m so very grateful to the people who built these stairwell

You know what's super trippy? Playing this video twice using two different tabs except one of the tabs is slightly delayed it kind of cuts off in one tab and starts in the other. Filled my ears with Lauren's mesmerising voice and I loved every second of it!

Me: I think I’m not terrible at singing Lauren: oh you sweet summer child

Me: Whats included in the utilities each month? Leasing office: We have a woman who sings in the stairwell.... Me: I'm sold.....

It’s weird. I can literally still hear this in my head like it’s out loud. Thought the video restarted, but no, she’s just so crystalline that my ear worm is a live concert.

Lauren would be an ideal cast member on the new LOTR Amazon series. Lauren’s striking elvish beauty coupled with the voice of an Angel would be a great asset for that series….x

I can only imagine what a drunken Lauren sounds like. Seriously though, this is great (just like your other videos).

She has a great talent. I’m surprised someone this young even knows or is interested in such old classic sailor songs

Am I hearing overtones when she sings “way hay up she rises”? That’s freaking amazing my ears can’t get enough of it!

I love how you snuck in the backing vocals!

Lauren Paley doesn't realize this, but her videos are curing everyone's boredom

Good lord, that reverb making it sound like there are 3 different harmonies going on at the same time during the "wey hey and up she rises." Chef's kis gold.

I remember having to sing this in school

Lauren MURDERS every song she covers, not kills, MURDERS

This has soo much potential, that voice with a full orchestra, massive bass drum = could be a massive hit of a revamped classic 🔥

OMG, I sang this 30 years ago in high school and I've never forgotten it. Thank you for this BEAUTIFUL walk down memory lane!

THE IRISH ROVERS did the best version of this, yours is up there ;)

My depression doesn't stand a chance when LP sings

I came to listen to an old Irish song and now I am in love... great, just great

Drunken sailor is a manly song, and she made it the same way she looks. So so so so so... Beautiful 😍😍😍😍😍

Easily my favourite video you've ever done. Your tone here is GORGEOUS.

Yesss!!!! Get it girl!!!!

I love this song! It's so catchy, plus it gives you practical advise on disciplining inebriated mariners.

The Longest Johns has what has become my favorite version of Drunken Sailor. This is coming close.

Imagine hearing this walking down the stairs 🎉

I love singing in a stairwell too. The acoustics are so much fun! I love the way the sound just bounces off the walls and echoes in the passages! Thank you for this! Now I don't feel so dorky for enjoying my own stairwell singing.

This is simply amazing. Have been singing this song for 50+ years, since my dad taught it to us as kids. Somehow it sounded way different back then, must have been our bellowing and hollering. He was a Korean War era Marine. Thank you for recording this. Brought back fond memories.

When people usually sing this, it sounds like a bunch of boisterous sailors eager to troll their idiot friend cos dems the rules. When Lauren sings this in her stairwell, it sounds like Amphitrite herself has taken offence at the misconduct and has issued a chilling decree of punishment that the fearful sailors will hurry to execute in the hopes of expiating her terrible wrath. I love it!!! ❤️

You're so talented and I dig the jig. Keep our ears and spirits up in these trying times. We're here for it!

I remember singing this on the playground when I was like 5! Seeing it blow up was so nostalgic for me but this version just blew me away!

Such a beautiful voice 🤩 the reverb adds to it as well :)

Absolutely Awesome! Congrats by the way on the edition.

They played this when I graduated US Navy boot camp in 1986. You just took me back 30+ years Lauren. Thank you for the smile.

Yeah, seeing a pretty girl sitting in a stairwell lulled me into thinking this rendition would be lackluster at best. BOY, was I WRONG! Excellent rendition, Lauren, you seem to understand shanties and foc'sle songs better than most! Keep it up!

Wow. It’s like the overtones ringing in the stairwell after the note she just sang create harmonies for the new notes she’s singing. Crazy. And let’s say, this little song is so often sung in the same spirit as something like “this old man” that it’s jarring to hear a deeply rendered version. Moving

I’ve seen this video 100 times still awesome.

Almost anything that she would sing would be an instant hit

Aah reminds me of Assassin's Creed 4😊. You nailed it Lauren🌹

Love this and this version makes it sound more epic

WOW!! You throw yr body and soul into a song and turn it into a symphony!

Love the pirate energy

I've heard this shanty for at least 60 years, but this is my favorite rendition.

It's 4:06 am here in South Carolina and I'm listening to Lauren sing and my day just got better. Thank you Lauren for sharing your angelic voice with us.

I love the echo from the stairwell - makes it sound from far away, long ago. Lovely singing!

Absolutely amazing Lauren !!😃 I got literal chill's from the beginning !!

Lauren: *breathes* Me: INSTANT LIKE.

Great acoustics. The reverb makes it sound like more than one singer. Amazing

I had a great teacher who taught us a LOT of these old songs in 4th grade and I didn't realize how precious a gift it was. Decades later, I still remember the lyrics, if not her name. Thank you so much anonymous teacher!

Lauren's voice just made this more epic then it ever was!

I love your voice, the energy you give through the screen only with your smile and voice, it's enchanting Lauren. I love your channel, You are amazing! 💖

My favorite shanty! Listened to it all the time growing up. Best version I have heard!

Awesome. Best use of the acoustic environment of the stairwell

This is the best version of the song I’ve heard yet!!

Hurray! More shanties!

Applause! realy fantastic performed!!!!! Bravo

A lady and a stairwell singing in a duo. Just amazing. So elegant!

I remember having to sing this in 4th grade advanced music class.....circa 1978.😁...great job!

This is sooooo goood 👏🏻

I can feel the JACKDAW approaching !! ❤️❤️

Awesome Lauren thanks!🙏🏻

You have such a wonderful voice💕

The acoustics are amazing. I can see this catching on. She should start singing other songs in the stairwell. Studios wouldnt have the same sound.

If I lived in your building I would literally camp out on the stairs 24/7 waiting for you to come out and sing

Girl, you make it sound like that hallway echoes in harmonics! Perfect song for the venue!

It'd be nice to hear "Ten Thousand Miles Away"

Always look forward to these but Im still waiting for a guy from upstairs coming down with his rubbish awkwardly saying hello

Love the effects the cement stairwells and cement block stairwells have on sound. I used to play my Native American flute in the stairwell at work on my breaks and it sounded beautiful. Love that sea shanty!

The “wheeeey heeey up she rises” give me the goosies every time! I love your voice 😭

I'd love to hear Lauren cover the 'Longest Johns' lyrics version of this.

Amazing voice! She is a gifted singer. I've watched many of her videos and in each one the purity of her voice shines.

right place at the right time!! awesome!

This.. is.. the.. BEST.. version.. EVER. Thanks, ma'am.

Since your doing sea shanties, Bones in the Oceans would be a fantastic song to hear done by Lauren!

Exactly what I needed today, some Lauren Paley magic 🥰🍺⚓ Thank you! ❤

I LOVE these improv sea shanties!

Love the echo from the staircase. Heard several of her songs and they are bring the songs to the next level.

That was amazing Lauren! Thank you so much! Brought back fond childhood memories of watching Captain Pugwash cartoons after school as a kid in the 70s.

I love how the echo is singing with you fully, you must have realy strong voice to do that

Wonderful! The stairwell gives such a great echo and sound.

Delightful!!! Love your smile and and obvious joy of song & acoustics.

0:33 that voice break just adds to the majesticness of this cover

Как же красиво, прекрасное видео, замечательный голос, велеколепная девушка!))) счастья вам и всех благ!)))

Absolutely amazing.

An enchanting voice, and that stairwell has wonderful acoustics!

That's so bloody awesome

The acoustics in that stairwell are awesome! Awesome voice!

Her voice is super rich, which is one of the reasons we are all here every single time she posts. 🤣

Damn what a beautiful Angel 👼🏻 voice Lauren.

That sounds effing amazing!

Wow, I love your version of this shanty. You are amazing. Beautiful job.

If I heard this in my stairwell, I would immediately start singing and dancing around

Would you please do more titanic covers? Specifically The Heart Of The Ocean? I love sea shanties this was awesome!

Omg I love this shanty!! ❤❤❤

The acoustics is outstanding with her voice.

I have got to ask this question: "When you do these stairway videos, do you ever get applause from people going through to their cars??"

Me: ummm sounds pretty but what’s she saying Google: I got you Way hay and up she rises Way hay and up she rises Way hay and up she rises What will we do with a drunken sailor? What will we do with a drunken sailor? What will we do with a drunken sailor? Early in the morning! Way hay and up she rises Way hay and up she rises Way hay and up she rises Early in the morning!

A song in a stairwell acting as a natural resonation chamber. Brilliant. No sarcasm. Brilliant.

OH MY GOD!!!! What a start! 😍🤩🤐 vocals, vibes, and all techniques, awesome...
