Eurovision 2008 Final - Latvia - Pirates Of The Sea

[daavis2503]

the last normal song what did Latvia in eurovision

[KaRaMeLa93]

Where is the captain Jack Sparrow ?!?!?!?!?

[CJVENOMZ666]

ALESTORM!!! much better than this sorry just saying

[andrewlawrence2209]

@mysteriouskazakh It isn't landlocked.

[mysteriouskazakh]

A land-locked country enters a song about sea-faring mercenaries. The irony.

Still, love this song! :D

[DeejayBeStabdziu]

@mysteriouskazakh landlocked country? latvia? not sure if trolling or just stupid.

[ManUAG12]

Alestorm is better.... Just sayin'

[mrpeterthegreatful]

hi ho hi ho....we are the wolfs at the sea.

[mrpeterthegreatful]

Like the womans front....NICE :-)

[Andy99737]

After watching this, I question my own manhood.

[berskerben]

How did this not win?

[MrQwertzzu]

Alestorm!!!

[romanticneverdies]

Ladies and Gentlemen. The Somalian National Anthem's currently playing, so please stand for the respects for our proud, brutal pirates.

[hawkwreak]

I personally believe that Alestorms version is much better, However, I do remember watching this live on TV, And it made me smile alot. :D

[honokaka]

herpa derp alestorm derp

[DemiathDoomhammer]

how can you NOT like this?! it's totally awsome! I wanna hear Johnny Depp singing this in the next POTC-movie..

[DeejayBeStabdziu]

the best song from eurovision 2008!!! it's so catchy and happy. greetz from lithuania! me gusta O___O

[Veronica1000ify]

Bellissima song *_*

[010brows]

please don't tell me hat the noise at 2:15 is his sex noise

[DJCalypsio]

Alestorm's version was better.

[SirKnightStalker]

I love this so much...england

[XMissNidiX]

This is why I love latvia

[g2g4m10]

Alestorm took the gay out of it

[TurtlesAreSexaayyyy]

The Somalian national anthem.

[rullstolsrullarN]

@TurtlesAreSexaayyyy Somalian pirates weeeee

[AWMJoeyjoejoe]

Ass pirates of the Caribbean!

[TheMattsmithfan]

I didn't learn these dance moves in 2008, and can still remember them to this day. Nope. Definatly not.

[nathanbeeby]

with a hai hai ho and a hai hai hey! :L

[apvienosimies]

alestorm sucks



[randomstuffinc]

@apvienosimies *Gasp* Blasphemy!

[Garoopy]

...I like the original better than Alestorm's. There. I said it. Sue me. I dunno, I guess I just like the jolly pirate feel from this one more.

[asskicker54]

They look so gay and flamboyant! It's beautiful I love it

[Jensus1337]

hehe they seemed to have fun, that's the most important :') remember that I voted for this song, good ol' Latvia, always doing crazy stuff

[MrBeachezz]

alestorms better nuff said

[girts71]

Alestorm's fans are evil and agressive people.Its's no sence to abuse any of them .Both versions are great and different.Those who like heavy music will prefer Alestorm's version ,other's - Latvian.

[GUNCITE13]

Who cares about Alestorm,this is a Latvian song and Alestorm only did a cover of it !!! I like this version better.. Malači Latvieši jums vajadzēja uzvarēt,viena no labākajām dziesmām kura bijusi no Latvijas eirovīzijā! :]

[lulichan12]

Alestorm sounds better...

[gloriousdesings]

59 retards hit dislike

[TreeninjaTheDruid]

@gloriousdesings 60 alestorm fans we're correct.

[lecurde2010]

pas mal du tout

[zoetherebel]

I love how Alestorm took this and MANNED IT THE HELL UP.

[KitchouaTembo]

@zoetherebel if it was a girl only band I'd be amazed, but the men really killed the mighty pirate vibe o0

[fartninja901]

fucking gay shit!!! watch alestorm version XD

[Alphahumphrey2011]

The 59 must had been to excited.

[MsBiamiley]

Amazing:D

From Italy!!

[TheSharkuz]

had alestorm on spotify, then my all alestorm just dissapered!!!

[xKlieverx]

Had my hopes up thinking that there was actually a badass pirate band doing the cover for Eurovison, but instead we get captain Queerbeard and his band of cock sucking ,tampon swinging ass dwellers

[PsyJill]

@xKlieverx >hopes up

>latvia

hahaha you're funny.

[OnslaughtLP]

There are Gay Pirates from the Carabean Europe has the Real Pirates and Somalia Pirates are Poor.

[johnknows7]

alestorm's is much better!!!!

[scorpioninpink]

crap!

[Emanuelsson93]

These ain't real pirates, these are posers! Alestorm, now that's the stuff!

[romanticneverdies]

@Emanuelsson93 You're an idiot.

[OnslaughtLP]

Somalian the Musical xD

[TheMadnessGamer]

this guys copied alestorm or alestorm copied them?? im not understanding a damn

[johnknows7]

@TheMadnessGamer alestorm copied them, but i still like alestorms better

[romanticneverdies]

@johnknows7 I guess it depends upon each person's opinion. Because I likes this one. Alestrom mortified this party song.

[TIKKY94]

I think the song is called WOLFS of the sea ,not PIRATES of the sea . xD

[TIKKY94]

@TIKKY94 WOLVES* sry . xD

[Ziaxey]

Is anybody else questioning their sexuality after watching this?

[JohannesFrykholm]

Haha this is just pathetic... what has some guys in "cute" makeup and gowns + WOMEN to do with pirates at all?? Doesn't make any sense. And why would pirates be dancing a stupid dance anyway? Alestorm makes this song 1000 times better.

[YupiiTV]

Latvia didn't won because is a small country which can't hosts ESC. Greetings from Romania !

[TheMacBajinskis]

@YupiiTV

But it hosted when Maria Naumova in 2002 Won on Eurovision

[YupiiTV]

@TheMacBajinskis Sorry, I didn't know about that

[portugboy]

PORTUGAL AT 0:59

PIRATES AT 3:12

Loved this song doesn´t have anything special but it's good

[YUGOk45]

The alestorms caver is 15000 times beter this is a pussys smoke!

[IntergalacticFetus99]

@YUGOk45 Alestorm sucks dick.

[Play3r0ne]

This should have scored much better than it did >.<

Alestorm did an awesome cover of an already awesome song. Simples.

[mcsquizy]

alestorms cover was better



[biangelboy21]

@mcsquizy

i agree!

[fredandgrace]

10 points from UK

12 points from Ireland

IM FROM UK... I LOVE THIS

[siviary13]

@GhostSpecOps96 Does he have the copyright to do that?

[GhostSpecOps96]

@siviary13 Do *they. Yes they do, or else they would get done for it. They also did a cover of "You Are A Pirate"

[siviary13]

@GhostSpecOps96 I don't know if it's a He or They... No need to correct me..

[GhostSpecOps96]

@GhostSpecOps96 Sorry man. Look them up, they are way better than this.

[sweetdreams618]

love this :***

[D1videos]

It's interesting, because, if audience is saying boo, then Latvia is going to Final, but if audience is saying that this is good sonh (like 2009, 2010 and 2011), then Latvia is not going out to the Final !?!?!

[dani1928]

holy shit this is so gay xD

Alestorm made it so much better

[CNmaster1]

awesome!

[SuperCormac1]

My son has just played leading role as Long John Silver in his Yr 6 play.....Fab song. Never heard of it, but ever since....makes me smile. Good Luck all Yr 6s in your new school x x Mapledene, birmingham.

[PickOfFuture]

Alestorm Rulz!!!

[Tribun121]

Alestorm Wolfs of the Sea

[makspaderin]

Great song, one of the best in 2008!

[NenadlPopovic]

[JoinMyGrave]

Alestorm's version is.... better....

but this is.... ok

[AlexTaylorBishop23]

Alestorm does a better job

[Ranma051]

this is not a pirate metal anymore... that's like pirate-music-for-kids.

[776able]

this was my favourite song from the 2008 eurovision shame it didnt finish higher

[ajct1996]

But the stage is very small

[scorpioninpink]

[Nelieciamasis]

[alexelguay]

[Kisa2012X]

[cotty59uk]

"ALESTORM RIP-OFF!!"........Listen to the real Pirate Metal version by Scotlands real Metal Pirates "Alestorm".

[markhellstone]

@cotty59uk i hope you know that the alestorm version is a cover of this one?

[VitezTemplara]

This song should win in the eurovision :))) Gretings from Serbia!!!

[winxbilievix100]

Dziesma baigi patika :) Vajadzēja uzvarēt =3

[cheekychuck234]

This could quite possibly be the best thing I've ever seen.

[Ahennuit]

Apart from the lyrics, there's nothing piraty about this performance of the song

Hail Alestorm!

[UnitedEmpirePirates]

[theeviltwaz]

Probably the last Eurovision I bothered to watch - the Russians and Swedish entries were fab that year - but it was this song that really stuck...

[stickitybone]

With a Hi Hi Ho and a Gay Gay Gay!

[stickitybone]

With a Hi Hi Ho and a Gay Gay Gay!

[imgek]

[Niznozify]

@EvieTrenhaile SAME!!

[MrPonyFucker]

octoberfest

[rmdlskms]

i loved this so much. i thought it was utter amazing <3

[mmirzzi]

I LOVED THIS!!! I VOTED THIS!!!! :DDD

[TheMrSunShine22]

I remember watching this and i thought it was great

[makusu5000]

jack sparrow rippoff (2008was also year of first pirates of the carribean movie)

[Gandalf2947]

@makusu5000 first pirates of the carribean movie? what about curse of the black pearl that came some 5 years earlier in 2003...

[brianbes2610]

uhm...... i think the version of Alestorm is better :)

[guccii666]

most horrible karaoke singers in Latvia's history... :D omg... OMG :D

[Arch1Kid]

last decade's songs were the best, this year Jedward and greece are the only awfully good ones.

[doreeeeens]

this was a funny entry

[SirIanBoss]

/watch?v=LbRHTmVr9bQ

MUCH better!

[sandis52]

@SirIanBoss So, what do we have to do now?

[SirIanBoss]

@sandis52 go sodomize yourselves with retractable batons

[sandis52]

@SirIanBoss Have you do this before? What's the feel, tell as.

[thrainful]

amazing!!!!!!!;)

[rozziechapman]

love this - it's got everything - pirates, boobs, catchy tune - why didn't it win!

[bobobokuken5000]

Fucking awesome.

[wouterW24]

It's very amusing to see REAL pirates from the past magically seeing this video. Putting aside the argument that they would be scared of the stage, how would they react on the mock pirates?

[magicaltrevrox]

This video ends the argument of pirates vs ninjas XD

[yesman2079]

Tim Curry was in Eurovision?

[megaboske]

this guys are best :) my favorit song from eurovision for me the are winners...

[dontknowanymore2011]

I still love this song lol

[Mochiii1]

@dontknowanymore2011 Me too. ::''DD

[PompeyLass2]

Sorry - I know - but this has to be one of my all time favourites - im all for Blue but even our boys cant beat 2006 winners Lordi (Finland)

[Kalvb123]

the most interesting

[antropopellazgu]

The solist or central singer is from Italy.

[TaideTV]

i always cry when i listen to this, i love this <3

[LoccoTheWolfman]

Not bad, but listen to the alestorm- version of this song,

this rocks!

[11ojkarito11]

6 friends doing the frikis

[UnluckyMonk]

i like alestorms version better, just saying

[shinpacha]

they might not be the best singers but my god this is a fun song and they are looking like they are having fun and thats what eurovision is about. And i love this song!

[Katarina20001]

cool and fun song :D

[MasterAsra]

I actually thought this song was pretty cool and fun.

[KaulitzKitty100]

Cool song :D

[Skullbird11]

Awesome song but they act like pedos.

[iLOVEurovision1]

Why are they booing at the beginning? Good song btw, not so good singing though.

[marksmanb727]

that lead woman has some killer moves :P
