[pombo39]

(me brazil)

eu achei super fofo e alem de tudo é legal e bom para as crianças ^.^

[MsMollymoo22]

The lesson i learned: next time i see a butterfly, the sun, and a cloud, I know i'm heading North!!!

[EricHermanMusic]

@MsMollymoo22 LOL :o)

[dshapiro5]

i like purple

[SimplyCecileP]

@dshapiro5 perrrrple. :)

[secretagentclank123]

It's weird that pirates would go from shore to shore looking for buried treasure when the real treasure was in the friendships they were making.

[xlovingYOUhurtzx]

Answers this stuff please i hate social studies -__- okayyy,

[[How did her died.?]] o.O[[blackBeard]]

{{why is he famous for???]] [[BlackBeard}}

I got more but i realize this questions can be answer in google

[divinesleeper]

the message is don't paint your ship or you'll die.

[chickenofrobot567]

why dose blackbeard take vitemins at the end?

[EricHermanMusic]

@chickenofrobot567 It's an obscure reference to the show "Lost."

[rabbitsrock101]

go to avenge of the pirates its awesome

[PettaYang]

another good piece of teaching material for kids with English as second language for them.

[Akitnar]

It's... So... PUNNY!

[DaynNightGaming]

Green is superior! :D

[chatoYmani]

They showed this today at school :)

[HippieLuzzu]

I VOTE FOR RED :D

[George105099]

I enjoyed this even though I'm 13

[George105099]

What does blue black and red actually make?

[EricHermanMusic]

@George105099 It does make maroon, if the proportion of red is heaviest.

[mahdidi96]

@EricHermanMusic then this video is both philosophically striking and scientifically accurate!

[jamesgraul]

That was fun. Wish you much success.

[sh1bby]

What!? No, comments on "Talk Like A Pirate Day?

[MrGneiss]

Arrrrrr!!

[CoffeeKvetch]

Arrrg! Happy "International Talk Like a Pirate Day" to ye!

[owlnoms]

That was amazing

[srividya03]

This video cracks me up each time I watch it!! Thanks for posting it...

[RuiGomes43]

Where's Whitebeard? a.k.a. Edward Newgate a.k.a. Santa

[SweetLife323]

Great I am from Argentina.. and I thanks technology and Eric.. =) The videos are quite fun! Let me remember when music used to make us unite ... Great!

[xCtSxLightning]

Black isn't a colour...stupid pirates -.-" :)

[srividya03]

This song always cracks me up. Thanks for posting it!!

[frowlong]

Why did I just watch this? O_o

[NeidalRuekk]

Looks like 85 people wanted the ship painted yellow, like the parrot suggested

[007hor]

I love the way Blackbeard's voice goes from Cockney to Cornish.

[blackbeard410]

ARRRR...



[Deiony123]

Wait.... RedBeard means..... BARBAROSSA!? AND BlackBeard is Edward Teach! : O

[katpiercemusic]

I love this! I'm a music teacher. I might teach it to my kids next year if that's alright with you. If you ever get the chance, check out my Pirate Video: 20,000 Rubber Duckies Lost at Sea. I think we have the same taste is non sequitur humor. A monkey without a spatula indeed!

[Ctm1008]

Check out my video at ctm1008 how to survive on a island pirate style

[DavidMatthewCarroll]

Awesome video.

[TheNoobCore]

This has to be the most gorgeous looking 240p video on the whole planet!

[ttmfss112]

Storyteller: Aye... Gather round me little buckaneers

Kid: Whats with the puffy shirt?

These 2 lines 2gethr always get me

[frangipanigirl101]

The northern star...

blue beard points to sun "disclaimer:our sun is not the northern star" .................. red beard points to a cloud "a cloud is also not the northern star"............ Blackbeard points to a butterfly "youve got to be kidding"................ they all point in random directions "Oh come on guys you cant be serious take an astronamy class already"

[gamemaster899]

boreing

[lobstersurvivor]

I think this is adorable... i love it.... Thanks for sharing... It's is wonderful.

[NeidalRuekk]

I've seen the pure tortured look of a monkey without a spatula. Truly not a sight you want to see

[free1flight]

disclaimer: our sun is not the northern star. ♥

[lq0pl]

Thank you very much! You really helped!!! )))

[lq0pl]

Hi, Eric!!! I like your videos very much. but I have a little problem.

help me please! I study English, I can't understand these:

gather around me, little...who?...

what does the parrot say when Redbeard suggests to paint him

what does Blackbead say after "deep dark black. From ....???... sure as bla-bla

and so ....???... puppies

I'd be very grateful for explanations )))

[EricHermanMusic]

@lq0pl Hi there. This probably isn't the best song for studying English with, as there is a lot of "pirate slang". :o) But anyway... "Gather 'round me little buccaneers (pirates)". The parrot says, "Rawk, pegleg" (wooden leg). Blackbeard: "From starboard to port" (right to left on a boat). Also, "scurvy puppies", a joke on the usual pirate reference to "scurvy dogs" (scurvy is a disease common to pirates due to lack of nourishment and vitamin C). Hope that helps!

[robbie10able]

@lq0pl

1. Gather around, little buckoneers (have no idea what that means) :)

2. The parrot says 'Awwk! Peg leg!

3. "...deep dark black. From starboard to port, from the front to the back"

4. "And so ye scurvy puppies" pirate language lol

Hope this helps

[bballnick123]

moral of the story: A pirate without treasure is like a monkey without a spatula

[lalaloopsy35]

I've never seen a monkey with a spatula

[IAmWEETABIX]

No monkey shall go without a spatula!

[IAmWEETABIX]

I'm 16 and I love this.....! Xx

[Lightbringer09]

This is beautiful

[cptbrentify]

Im 40 and love it

[Diamonandia]

"I still don't get that."

Lol.

[fordprefect4]

Me and my two year old love this song.

[Darkblaze10k]

The message is to work together! If you argue all the time, nothing will get done!

[EricHermanMusic]

@Perrygallo Nope. That's not the message. Sometimes you may need to disagree.

[Perrygallo]

@EricHermanMusic Fair enough, good song nonetheless :)

[Darkblaze10k]

@EricHermanMusic

The message is to work together! If you argue all the time, nothing will get done!

[lalaloopsy35]

@EricHermanMusic You mean you need disagree to agree?

[popirman]

Rar how about yellow!

[youknowwhatsupdudes]

I'm with blackbeard!

[squirtalert10]

actully the message is that black blue and red all make maroon! u idiots

[BearZzZz1]

how.. did i get here O.o..

[AJB0902]

BLUEBEARD IS MY GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT COSIN. MAYBE EVEN MORE GREAT I NO HIS WGHOLE STORY ABOUT HIS WIVES ASK ME IF U WANT TO NO THEM.

[greener144]

@AJB0902 Bluebeard was a fictional character thought up by a french author... Think or at least do some research before you shout at nobody in particular.

[OmegianDustail]

Dh'arrr'ma Flakes? My favorite! :D

[boredtohell1000]

ARRRR!

[TheDrjman1]

72 people don't have spatulas

[TheSirTalks]

Blackbeard looks like he has a ski mask.

[wolfjackle]

That is hilarious! I love it!

[theburger41]

haha

is it right that black beard laughed at 2:30 ?

but still awesome song !

[TheElainehammond]

hahahahaha brilliant !!!! tickled me ribs Arrrrrrrrrrrrr

[molliemaipopzii]

omg this is AWSOME i think black should win !

[lukzdibella]

Please Please!!!!! do songs in spanish!!!!!!

[hypermovieful]

yellow wins!

[HowToMaster11]

lol

hijacked 

[TheAntiVigilante]

actually Polaris and Vega both (redundant) switch places as North Star every so many millenia

[supercharazard]

@TheAntiVigilante

I'm guessing that's because the poles shift every few millenia?

[randombrandon678]

rcf5t

[LooseIt2Live]

Adorable!!!

[joku02]

2:39 "You gotta be kidding me" LOL, love that part

[squirtalert10]

@joku02 thats dumb

[theglastonburygirl]

Thats so funny x

[Memories570]

A dud ethis is a pond......

LOL!

[CapeCodKnits]

Red has the best arguments, but Blackbeard has the most charisma! I have six grandsons (ages one year to ten years) and we all love this video. The boys sit on my lap around the computer and we all sing along with the pirates. I taught our one year old to say, Rrrrrrrrrr! Honestly, this is the absolute best children's song I have ever heard! Thanks to Eric Herman you are fun!!!

[ShawnIsSoAwesome]

at the end i thought the box said diarrhea flakes lol

[genieshanu]

what an awesome video

[danning1]

Bluebeard was not a pirate, he was a fictional character in a French novel, an insane aristocrat who murders his wives and keeps their remains hidden in a locked room in his cellar.

[ikuto2213]

ahahaha get it? Marooned? Like the colour? And like when a ship.. o never mind...

[Vic7997]

@ikuto2213 The name is Maroon, but it gives the impression of sayin that it was painted like that

[Clockworkmaster1]

this is an awesome song, i found it cause of a link from my German teacher.

[gymbratamanda]

@Clockworkmaster1 hey is your german teacher, annaliese van den dikkenberg?

[zanychimp]

this is my JAM ^_^

[SuperBoam]

I am like the teenager but i still like this song.

[ebgbjo]

@SuperBoam Heck, I am 32 and enjoy this song, a lot..lol

[BeforeMagellan]

shirohige~! :P

[Kalashx]

oh my god!! so funny dude did you make this? hahahhaahah i love the northern star with the sun hahaha

[Soraman11]

I'm sorry, this is just to funny with the Northern Star crap. xD

[ProcterPurrgus]

This is so cute X3

[MrTacos147]

i think black because they would be almolst invisible at night

[ksa482]

@MrTacos147

Racist.

[EricHermanMusic]

@ksa482 He means the boat out on the sea.

[LaRocheFoucauld]

Polaris won't always be due north, though. Due to precession of the Earth's orbit, the North Star shifts cyclically over thousands of years.

[Molndag]

Arrrrrrr! haha

[totembulls]

....Pirate without treasure is like a monkey without a spatula!!!! WHAT????

GREAT!!!! I will never forget this leason!!!

Outstanding. Congrats!

[seotons]

hheeuu.... cute or not!

[nehali]

[TheJenipherz]

[EvilCrash3000]

Thumbs up if you were searching for Blackbeard from One Piece and you saw this XD

[Kaylin881]

@EvilCrash3000 i was watching the blackbeard song from horrible histories! XD

[Hyland0r]

Oww... How about yellow?

[Rubenmeister10]

If Blackbeard won, tjhe ship would be the Black Pearl? xD

[prana888]

very entertaining. lol.

[youtubian97]

Lol. Lost reference FTW!

[Shadow13297]

red did have the best reason. but black is the best colour.

[skeebert]

Why didn' they just fight to the death?!

[ThePotcFan]

They really need to find themself's a girl mate.

[Hyperrifle14]

The North Star parts are the funniest

[crockawaddy]

Ay, matey! You can also go to "adamthealien" on YouTube to view "Captain Manley & Shannancy's Shanty" for some pirate laughs. Go now if ya know what's good fer ya. Aaargh.

[gerdenshed]

Fantastic!

Mark....

[gerdenshed]

Excellent my friend ;o)

How does a pirate keep fit?

By doing Aarrrroebics at the Gym-Lad!

Mark ;o)

[sweisfamily]

This is really cool! i like it!

[KidVproductionz]

boring for a girl

[AnElephantsChild]

'Appy Tork Loike A Pirate Day - Ye land lubbers !

[zez141]

Blackbeard ftw

[Koiranahhh]

maddd

[DarthZob]

dark purple nice

[Fajjani]

I think Red had the best arguments.

[EricHermanMusic]

@Fajjani Me, too. He definitely made the best case for himself and was the first to get to work. If anyone deserved the color, it was him...

[LightxKira5643]

@EricHermanMusic Black is way more deadly of a color for a pirate.

[Rubenmeister10]

@Fajjani

True true :D

[ThePotcFan]

@Fajjani But I think that the parrot had the best one xD

[KilledByCupid]

sodypop kegs :3

[numi1337]

this reminds me of the dutch schooner 'Twister'. She's actually wearing the same color :D

[MW2sniperoonPWNAGE]

is this supposed to teach little childrens about sharing?

[umean123]

@MW2sniperoonPWNAGE i suppose sharing and to plan everything so everyone is happy not just one person or apparently this would happen and nowon is happy.

[SevCommando]

Wheres the disclaimer stating that gingers aren't cool enough to be pirates?

[Zeke2390]

wats the message of the song?

[EricHermanMusic]

@Zeke2390  The message is... a pirate without treasure is like a monkey without a spatula.

[boredtohell1000]

@EricHermanMusic still dont get that

[1235link]

@boredtohell1000

Its not supposed to make any sense thats the point.

[SpringsPimpin]

@Zeke2390 To learn to compromise with your commrades, or you'll meet your demise, maybe?

[felicityG19]

@Zeke2390 That purple is the best ;)

[RomanticaKH]

dude, I was i my class room, in 6th grade, and my teacher pulled this up onher computer, she thought it was comforting while we work, it just ended up with us all crowed up around her the watch XD

[DeathCeroHollow]

WTF ROFL LMAO LOL XD OMEGA EPIC XD ARRRGH!!!!

[soulfoodmarketing]

PERFECT SYMBOLISM OF ............

[michaelmumau1]

youve got to be kidding me *pointing at butterfly* aww

[Doomer32140]

Was this done in Toon Boom Studio or Animate?

[EricHermanMusic]

@Doomer32140 The basic animation was done with Flip Boom, then compiled and edited with Toon Boom.

[Tabish1995]

as sure as we sail by the northern star !

[esmbj]

hahahaha, love your songs, you're my idol!!

[14Jester88]

Lol, pretty effing cool mate.

[Tabish1995]

[MyWebSkip]

Too funny, in a serious treasure seeking way.

[oeneboy]

Haha, DH'ARRR'MA Initiative Swan site flakes :D

[umean123]
