Favourite Sea Shanty


Recommended Posts

So one of the best things about AC4 is the sea shanties they make sailing around a complete joy. So I have come to you, my PS3T friends to vote on your favourite sea shanty from the game as I am curious which one are most popular even though they are all great.

 

Here is a link to the songs in a video:

Here is a like to all the lyrics:

Sea shanties - The Assassin's Creed Wiki - Assassin's Creed, Assassin's Creed II, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, Assassin's Creed: Revelations, walkthroughs and more!

Nothing gets remotely close to it.

 

I do like the Initiates shanty, too, though.

I was dissappointed that Drunken Sailor was missing my favourite verse though. They've got "What shall we do with the drunken sailor?", "Put him in the scuppers with a hose pipe on him", and "Put him in the brig until he's sober". But my favourite verse is "Put him in bed with the captain's daughter" :p

 

... Then, now I think about it...

[spoiler=kendaughter]Kenway's daughter is what, like 10? ... K, nevermind...
