PRE-SAVE MY NEW ALBUM "THE COLM BEFORE THE STORM" NOW: ffm.to/thecolmbeforethestorm LYRICS BELOW! Who's excited for shanty album #3??? What guests do you think might be on it? LYRICS: Hold fast, me merry lads The night is nearin’ the end No matter the storm, we’ll pull her to shore We’re ramblin’ home again She’s a wretched pile of timbers And she creaks from evenin’ to morn But she’s home to a crew of the best wee few To ever sail under the horn Poor Reilly’s up the mainmast And wee Johnny’s hanging the sails And the lad with the oars is passed out in the stores As we’re rattlin’ threw the gales [Chorus] Hold fast, me merry lads The night is nearin’ the end No matter the storm, we’ll pull her to shore We’re ramblin’ home again Hold fast, until the last As the waves are thunderin’ in And we’ll show’em our mettle and drink like the devil And bring’er on out again Now we’re good and lost and lonesome And a maelstrom’s at our tail Half the crew is freezin’ And a lad’s gone over the rail Poor Reilly’s head is ringin’ And the port’s all over the floor And Johnny is hangin’ on tight to a canon Now where is the bleedin’ shore? [Chorus] Hold fast, me merry lads The night is nearin’ the end No matter the storm, we’ll pull her to shore We’re ramblin’ home again Hold fast, until the last As the waves are thunderin’ in And we’ll show’em our mettle and drink like the devil And bring’er on out again Now the bow is bleedin’ banjaxed And half the sails are torn The stores are full of water And two of the rafts are gone Now someone get me the potín And grab the bleedin’ oars We’ll row this bleedin’ tub on home We’re almost at the shore [Chorus] Well hold fast, me merry lads The night is nearin’ the end No matter the storm, we’ll pull her to shore We’re ramblin’ home again Hold fast, until the last As the waves are thunderin’ in And we’ll show’em our mettle and drink like the devil And bring’er on out again Then we’ll pull her to shore And sink the wee hoor And we won’t We won’t be out again

Who else had to look up the definition of “hoor”

[@blurred-antics]

always hopeful for more collabs with John Theodore and Rachel Hardy. Their abilities and yours always mesh so gorgeously. Also a big fan of whenever we get to see Savannah! Her voice is so lovely.

[@technicalphoenix1096]

Got my fingers crossed for your redone Drunken Sailor, Roll the Chariot, Roll Northumbria, and Over and Under! 🤞

[@Chamber_Pheonix]

Jonathan young! I have little hope with DAGames too

[@deniblackmore2179]

What guests might be on it? Well I would hope your roarin' buddy JoYo would make an appearance - I can just hear the pair of you roaring this out into the night 😁 I love your collabs with him 👍

this song just screams "We are very much in over our heads but we're getting through it any!" AND I LOVE IT.

[@jesseshedd7865]

Yeah that's definitely gives a feeling of we're flying by the seat of our pants here and we're probably going to meet our maker but if we do it'll be with a smile and a smartass attitude

[@ig9796]

And all through out the many realms, his songs played loud and true for our favourite legendary, story-telling bard could always carry a tune. He never fails to impress so stay and listen a while, his stories and songs are guaranteed to leave you with a smile.

Man, this makes me wanna conquer some village 😂😂😂

[@allienelson_1997]

Your original songs are always amazing!! I’m stoke for another album 🥹👏🏼

[@Chickadee2202]

Please add lyrics to your songs (either CC, description, or pinned comment), it really help so many people enjoy your music better. I can't always figure out sung words, so I sadly don't know your wonderful lyrics to this song.

[@Shaw11234]

If you hit more and scroll down there's a button that says "Show Transcript" it's not perfect but it's something 👍

[@sad_hedgehog]

yeah, same with ppl with eng as second language.

[@rokasai]

The lyrics are also in the pinned comment, under the promo :) (at least on this video, I haven't checked if that's the case for every video)

[@commandocommander4041]

@@Shaw11234 By not perfect you mean totally incoherent, then yes.

[@Tyrannocaster]

Valid comment. I'm a native English speaker, very conversant with this music, but it's not always clear to me, either. However, I'm not listening on phones

[@JSLinares]

Yaaaar!🍻

[@alwaysright1283]

Colm doesn't get enough love for his originals. This was fantastic!

[@MrJesusRaptor]

Colm your originals NEVER fail to be my favorites... yet an another absolute banger

[@albertocaramaschi2756]

😊😊

[@CheezChopper]

Certified banger. If you told me this was an old Irish sailor song, I would have believed you. ❤

[@lydiacooper3913]

All hail Colm the laird of the shanty! 🎉🎉 the urge to shout along was strong!😍 well done!

[@genevalawrence801]

I LOVE THIS!!! Your original songs are so much fun, Colm. Also, in our new D&D campaign, I'm playing a pirate turned paladin of the sea goddess. As part of character development, our DM encourages us to make a playlist for our characters. My list is 75% your music. This song is definitely going on the playlist. ❤

[@tankythemagnorite9855]

Add the longest John's as well

[@user-mw4zn2bu1i]

Colm this is downright my favourite song from you. And to make the fact even better, it’s a song YOU created. 👏

[@matthewmoeller6766]

I love your arrangements. Full of energy. As a chantey man, I'd have to say that it wouldn't work as a working song. That won't stop me from learning and covering it! You're a great talent!

[@alexisharper241]

It's always such a joy to listen to your music, and also heartwarming to watch the Colmpany rally together and cheer you on with your continued success!🔥

[@ragingredhead9555]

The violin and flute together sound so beautiful. I could just listen to them all day. 😊

[@doughanfamily]

its actually a tin whistle/ penny whistle i think

[@smilingdmstudios3629]

Damn it’s glorious when you step into your wheelhouse. This goes so hard 💪

[@randomfatkidonyoutube1400]

Most underrated singer EVER I get bored of music very quickly but I Colm still sounds amazing after 7 months of listening

[@roedkill9627]

I dont think this can be said or stressed enough but Colm's Original Shanties are fantastic.

[@thebleachgod6890]

BRO GOT SO IRISH HE BROKE THE SUBTITLES

[@Darealcyclic]

The subtitles can't even keep up lmfaoooo

[@stormwing9123]

To be fair, the subtitles don't need much breaking, the automatics suck.

[@JessicaJessen]

What a heart-leaper! Seriously, I was in a pretty bad mood before turning this song on and I think it just changed the rhythm of my day, much for the better. Thank you so much Colm for sharing your talent and passion with all of us, it's always a day-brightener!

[@bigfoot_huntr2964]

Having a mental break down as i write this. A colm song is always a good thing to get back right in the mind. Thank you Colm. Honestly your singing and music is amazing and your such an awesome person. Thank you so much!

Amazing song

[@chrisstone1929]

The new album comes out on the same day that a good friend of mine gets married - and I'm part of the wedding party. I didn't think I'd ever interrupt a wedding to listen to an album as it comes out, but here we are.

[@user-eq2bf4qu9l]

Listening to this at 3am uk time really great found someone who sings shantys will be following you ❤❤

[@ronin2827]

'Over and Under', another original of Colm, has become my all-time favourite of his and this landed a comfy place in the top 5. Fantastic work and stay handsome!

This is so damn good. It brings me great joy that amazing talented people such as yourself are making new songs to be sung for another several hundred years, and keeping the spirit of this genre alive.

[@BenElliottSound]

This is SO good, Colm! You're an AMAZING composer!

[@zoeorchid]

I have been listening to so much of your work over the last week or so while I've been working on a historical/adventure novel - and I am a new sub! It is amazing, and I get a lot of inspiration from all of these songs.

[@lauralopezlarios6801]

Yyyyaaaaaaaasssss!!!!🤘🏼☘️✨

[@anastasianorthern2925]

I'm absolutely in love with your voice, Colm, but in this song... the music is so good that it's impossible not to shout compliments about it. and the lyrics, of course, are beyond praise! p.s. Is this an attempt to force me to finish my novel about pirates and mermaids? I'm afraid I'll have to...

[@carmelr5504]

Such a banger! Also those long held notes on fiddle in the background around 0:54 and later remind me so much of Seth Lakeman and makes me feel the same chills 😁

[@TheCreepypro]

what a badass and cool new shanty this is!

[@starwarp8885]

Shanty’s are always wonderful to listen to. Keep up the great work

[@belladonnabaggins3996]

🩵🩵🩵 Brilliant!

[@bellerain381]

This is absolutely beautiful!!! I want to dance to this tune! As a matter of fact…..I’ll put this on repeat and dance to my heart’s content!!!

[@allisoncossittVO]

Right. So you know how insanely much I love all your songs but I LITERALLY CANNOT STOP LISTENING TO THIS. Send help.

[@chrislooo5895]

Colm is obviously one of the best artists on this platform and his talents are insane🤩can anyone tell me what his actual voice is? Baritone, Bass or Tenor?

[@ColmRMcGuinness]

I've said bass1 in the past, but maybe a more comfortable bass2 that can hit strong bass1 notes on good days. Most of my upper range is mixed voice and my belt range is pretty small, so I'm definitely not a true tenor.

[@danitron4096]

Your original shanties are always so awesome, still listening to "over and under" almost every day

[@bounce0606]

Another grand song Colm! Very excited for your shanty album!

[@KevinSanchez-rd7um]

Another shanty that'll get stuck in my head. Love your music, both your originals and covers. Your talent and skill has no boundries.
