Santiano feat. SKÁLD | The Longest Johns

[@legrognard9777]

(🇬🇧/🇺🇸) The language barrier has once again been broken by magnificent songs (🇫🇷) La barrière des langues à une nouvelle fois été brisée par de magnifiques chants

[@kommandantvalentine6272]

By god may it happen again, oh wait it will on the 23rd!

[@dagriffon]

Indeed, mon ami. May it happen more and more in the coming years. The language barrier being broken is the best thing in the world. Good music is a language of it own.

This version's lyrics : C'est un fameux trois-mâts, fin comme un oiseau (Hissez haut! Santiano!) Dix-huit nœuds, quatre cents tonneaux Je suis fier d'y être matelot Tiens bon la vague et tiens bon le vent Hissez haut! Santiano! Si Dieu veut, toujours droit devant (Nous irons jusqu'à San Francisco) Oh, the wind was foul and the seas ran high (Heave away! Santiano!) She shipped it green and none went by (Along the plains of Mexico!) Tiens bon la vague et tiens bon le vent Hissez haut! Santiano! Si Dieu veut, toujours droit devant (Nous irons jusqu'à San Francisco) Je pars pour de longs mois en laissant Margot (Hissez haut! Santiano!) D'y penser, j'avais le cœur gros (En doublant les feux de Saint Malo!) Tiens bon la vague et tiens bon le vent Hissez haut! Santiano! Si Dieu veut, toujours droit devant (Nous irons jusqu'à San Francisco) We swear by rote, and want of more (Heave away! Santiano!) But now we're through so we'll go on shore (Along the plains of Mexico!) Tiens bon la vague et tiens bon le vent Hissez haut! Santiano! Si Dieu veut, toujours droit devant (Nous irons jusqu'à San Francisco) ^(X2) Incredible version !! Cheers from France !

[@robertstuckey6407]

Merci! My French isn't good enough to sign along without this! I think they're saying "we swear by rote for want of more. Heave away! Santiano! But now we're through so we'll go on shore. Along the plains of mexico"

[@astrotrek3534]

"Oh the wind was foul and the seas ran high She shipped it green and none went by" And, "We swear by rote, and want of more But now we're through so we'll go on shore" They're lines from "Leave her Johnny", another shanty.

Can I just say... I have been a sub for 4 years and have watched you guys grow and you guys deserve every one of the subscribers you have. I'm so glad that with the new wave of sea shanties that has hit the media you guys are riding it and have gone from 40k to 350k in a year! That is so amazing and I am so happy for you guys. I hope you continue to grow because y'all are basically the reason I love shanties and have brought them to others. I started a shanty group at my school because y'all inspired me. It has really been something to look forward to in these rough times. Thank you so much Johns! A fan for life!
