Parcel of Rogues of North Devon (Berrynarbor) have been playing some of the same sea shanties for many years in our area with more gusto, better rhythm, and fantastic instumental support

[Brennna]

Great stuff! I love this music. It brought a tear to my eye. Honestly.

[boondoggle6]

Terrific stuff, sexy, charming and utterly engaging.

[rockapeandproud]

here's hoping the boys do well, they deserve it and we need to hear the beautiful music they are more capable of singing.

[belladeballe]

I've just read of them at the BBC website so came to youtube to check 'em out. Hopefully someday they'll come to the USA to perform. Best of luck to the guys :)

[Dave83C]

Cheers, from Saskatchewan

[DJC11757]

Hey folks. Just in case ya don't know. Type in "No Hopers Jokers and Rogues" in the search bar. Its their first official music vid and it's damn addictive to listen to. Really wish these lads all the best. About time we heard some real music.

[avalonyamystra]

Wonderful, love it!!! Best wishes from Germany

[olddeuteronomy]

They're like the water equivalent to the Men of the Deep!

[franinconverse]

This is my favourite one. They're just amazing!

[PositiveChillout]

Hey I just hear about you guys on BBC news! Congrats on the record deal and your fantasic music! Cheers from Canada!

[anettka31]

FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fwee79]

Heard this on BBC Newspod, definitely getting the cd

[fromedemon]

Saw them on the UK national news yesterday ,brilliant ! hope they do really well, I love folk music, such a change from most of the rubbish around at the moment .

[Kinkozes]

excellent!! you gotta be able to enjoy any type of folklore worldwide

[ALEXJONESTHEJESUIT]

Just saw them on the news in Australia and heard of the record deal. When will the album be available. They sound magnificent. Looking forward to the Australian tour.

[ItsBalderDasH]

Just saw them on Sky Mews amazing!!

[SilvioBRAmado]

Congratulations about the new contract with the Universal Music ...

[GuatemalaN1991]

Luv it, I just read it on my btinternet news page, and thoguht I'd come on here to see of any1 ahd recorded them. Its amazing that they have a record deal with Universal Music :) :)

Good Luck to them xxxxxxx

[kieronma]

Try Great Big Sea if you like this kind of music

[lostinthemonitor]

Great sound gentlemen! You've made front page news on Yahoo. There isn't a lot to see of you singing on Youtube so we'll be waiting for your record and official videos.

[DJC11757]

Type in "No hopers jokers and rogues" in the search bar. Trust me. That's their first official video and I'm personally in love with it. About time we heard some REAL music for a change eh?

[gnomebottom]

GOOD ON YOU GUYS! Thanks for keeping the old tunes alive...

[animalsdelight]

i liked it typically local music well done better than most music apart from Baby face and Ian calvert

[RATMfanforlife]

just saw these guys on the national news! amazing!! ill buy their album when as soon as it comes out!

[alanthomas123]

Good work lads. Just watched you on the afternoon news. Congratulations on getting the Record Contract, good to hear local music being played nationally.

[joecool280]

Theyve been picked up by Unviersal Music!

[xSephangelx]

@joecool280 Yep for around 1 million euro

[RussMoxham]

Not so bad but gimme old Bob Roberts on an accordion and thank you kindly.

[strollby]

thanks for posting, most enjoyable

[osusannarosen]

They should be featured in the Doc Martin series. I've always wondered why the traditional music isn't included.

[trebiffen]

Because Doc Martin is a awful program

[grouchyguy]

Yeah, bet you like X factor eh?

[linkydog33]

Brilliant. Keep it up lads.

[omgoreo123]

last week i went on a sailing trip, it changed me. i love it!!! everything about sailing :) we sang this shanty but i don't know the song can some one tell me what it is it called? please? thanks!!!

[darkelfmerc7]

It's called "South Australia". It's one of the easier to find shanties out there. In fact, there are probably several versions of it here on YouTube.

[ViolaDamore]

It's called South Australia. You can find it on iTunes

[jimmy55uk]

You do sound very bitter Paul. Most of the money raised by this lot is donated to various charities.

[merse4england]

The Fisherman's Friends this is. They have an album called "Suck one and See"

[CrunchyLice]

this is so damn good.

[juwelke]

Hey I really like this one xD ... Im leader off an shanty-choir in germany. Could s.o. please send me a link to the composition of this song or s.t.. I´d like to try it with my men :-)

[Kopsinger]

Worden 28: Having only visited a few parts of Cornwall, (the mainly commercial parts) I do know what you mean, the place is becoming (or rather was) a magney for the yuppies and their "Urban Tanks" these people dpn't give a flying one about "tradition" or locals, you should venture further south for the Real Cornwall, along the coast past Penzance, before the bastards catch on and ruin that as well!

[carot2003]

Nice one guys. I love cornwall, Padstow holiday this year, Trevone holiday next year. Cheers.....

[BumbleBeeInABluebell]

My parents were from Trevone; while you are there, put in a word for the people who will still be there when you have gone home. Tell the old farts who just want to look at a pretty view till they die, that ordinary people have families and need jobs - they killed my village by blocking planning permission for a place which would have given year round work to all of us - because one of them would have had to look at the car park. (He'e dead now - and so is the village. And half of us have left.)

[plidcil]

Couldn't have put it better myself. People think urban areas are terrible places to live whilst not thinking about the problems encountered in rural life. My family can't afford to live in south devon anymore because of second-home owners and refusals for affordable home applications. Holiday programmes don't really help the situation either.

[worden28]

I was born in port isaac, lived there the best part of my life, belive me, it's crap, everyone is out ot get something and don't give a flying fart if you live or die, very selfish. so this lot are just cashing in. the real people suffer for what the greedy idal seekers can afford. cornwall and the real cornish have been sold out. The school in Port Isaac was condemed as it was unsafe for the kids by the local council. it was made into a hotel. that tells you people are worthless without money.

[munkeeguy]

Sounds like Cornwall is simply poor, not "crap".

Ive never been to Cornwall, but I always perferred the English countryside, steeped in its culture and history, to London's multicultural induced "placeless" feel.

[BumbleBeeInABluebell]

Cornwall is beautiful and kept deliberately 'poor' so that rich old farts can admire the view without the tedium of having to live in the real world. Thing is, in the end, all the people who currently clean their toilets and serve them in the restaurants will have had to leave, so they can earn a living.

[tailzz1993]

um i grew up in port issac and they are all lovely people who look out for each other

as a kid i remember being taken out on fishing trips with the local fishermen (some are in this choir)

[derk527]

words cannot describe how absolutely amazing this is!

[bilshut]

awesome well done lads!!

[unclefestus]

wow... they sound great.

[slobjob13]

[sasukeisthemoprince]

I love this song, brilliant! rendition

[jibgt6]

bloody good cornish music

[BANANASARENASTY]

Brilliant , And I love how they have their Pints at their feet as if they were in the pub and asked to pop outside to sing a song, Class.

[lerpwlambyth]

I concur. Absolutely wonderful. :)

[Ildah]

This is wonderful.

[juno96]

Great song - even if South Australia is a hole :p

[draysunburst]

Awesome shanty!

[alfasdelpi]

I loved this! A rollicking Sea shanty and a mandatory pint of beer close at hand to oil the tonsils!

[mundanewoman]

brilliant

[terribleteddy]

Any1 knows the name of the shantie?

[oddmanrush]

"South Australia," it's used as an example for sea shanties on Wikipedia.

[tailzz0666]

i know em the bald 1 owns the post office and they all work for the rnli

[xplosivepizza]

gotta take my surname back to CORNWALL

[BigRedBus100]

Welcome back Mr. Pizza

[nd017]

enjoying this. reminds me of my home in devon (dont kill me!) with pubs full of old(er) men singing brilliant songs.

[jabracharvel]

I know them all

[Atollery]

They have got a couple of CDs - 'Suck em and sea' and 'Back from the sea'. Not sure if they have done any more though

[captainsharkey]

a very catchy song, it is good to see some Cornishness still alive and kicking

[thepitcanary]

they're apparently 'famous' in a way only a group of Cornish fishermen (though they're not all fishermen) can be. They've played Albert Hall I'm told, so I've no doubt they've done a DVD...
