"A voice as booming as thunder, coated in sweet honey."

[sanjuancb]

No doubt, David is King of the Sea Shanty

[hostoftheseawitch]

David Coffin.. The only shanty singer who can live up to Stan Rogers.

[HTWW]

-- Who is this dude?
-- This isn't a dude. You're a dude. This... *This is a man!*


David's performance, as always, is something beyond amazing. It's awesome in the true sense of the word. Awe-inspiring.

[willyustad]

You can almost feel the sea rolling, feel the cold from the icefloes they´r leaving and dream their dreams of the girls of Maui -.

[LindaMoore-zl]

Lahaina is gone. I live on the Big Island. This song will never sound the same.

[morathithephoenixqueen]

I have no words. Such a magnificent, beautiful male voice. Keep on singing my Good Sir. It means more than ever those dark
times

[ert]

Literally the best singing voice ive ever heard

[oktonkel]

David Coffin....after the x-mas I am going "down" to Old my open heart surgery! I am very scared....no joke....But this is the tune...with your voice that will make me sleep and hopefully wake up again..Tnx David for being there. This is the tune I will play for the surgeons before....hopefully I will wake up to your voice and the fantastic seamen before me and you. For me this is the best video on the tube now. Sing me to the whalers of Kamshatcha....going down to the bed down south....To get some rest.I hope to wake up....but I do not know. And if all goes right...I will sail around the Horn next year on a sail ship from Norway. . At least that is my hope! All the best to all of you nd David this x-mas. And in the top I make it...I will hoist the name David. This song Is the end or the beginning for me. Keep up the fantastic work you do David!

Thank you, sir for the gift of your voice. In 2012, I ran across a video of you singing "Roll The Old Chariot." That video sent me down a musical rabbit hole from which I have yet to emerge. Thank you for opening up a hole new world of music.

If immortality doesn't exist such a voice wouldn't be possible

[dcosta]

David Coffin is a National Treasure. We must protect him at all costs.

[countdunkelheit]

This guy genuinely has one of best voices I've ever heard. It's incredible

[denrob]

Браво! Лучшее исполнение этой песни, что я слышал на просторах интернета! Поставил песню на рингтон телефона!❤

[kinghoodofmousekind]

Coffin's voice is so powerful, and yet delicate: like a ball of yarn collecting all the scents of a room, so his voice is filled with all human feelings, and this is why these songs, when sung by him, are so amazing. He's channeling the voices of generation of sailors, and sea-farers, of the sea itself, of its waves...

[dschoene]

In German we call the Instrument "Quetschkommode" - a "squeeze dresser". In the North they call it "Schifferklavier" - "sailor's piano"

[hawkinatorgamer]

He has the voice of a man that was there.

[ironicmedic]

Truly a bard of the sea, i raise my tankard to ye!

[MM-oyku]

I could listen to David all night, such a fine strong voice. Brings these songs to life.

[alech]
