I literally have this entire song memorized and will occasionally belt it super loud while driving to school.

My favorite verse of this shanty that I don't hear to often is "If the devil's in the way, we'll roll it over him; And we'll all hang on behind"

Jack O'Connell rising out of the water gasping for air + immediate cut to this song was aesthetic perfection.

[bardosolitario]

This splendid voice sings the tales of the sea and ocean. Thank you mr Coffin.

[RoxorTehCoxor]

I'm homesick for a place I'm not sure exists.

[caesarblack]

The North Water brought me here.
Never heard of this incredible song until I (just) discovered the show.
The voices are mesmerizing!

I whipped this number out at wprk one day and now the lads request it upon a time

I'm in the marine industry and part of my work is commercial fishing, and on days when im 100 miles offshore and it's grey and rough with the flying fish skipping out of the waves and the spotted dolphin pods dot our wake, David's music just fits. Ive got an entire playlist.

[elscruffomcscruffy]

I went kayaking with friends and someone called out for a song: i burst into this! And they loved it!

[lukeoldfield]

Needed to look this song up after watching 'The North Water' - great :)

[Americkslander]

the voices sound almost ghostly, that, combined with the waves rolling, makes for a almost nautically-haunting video. so, in other words, VERY cool!

[dimosthenis]

Amazing song with an epic feeling. Thank you very much mister David.

[dougboling]

The harmonies in this arrangement are stunning. Give me chills.

[Iluvater]

The amount of energy, passion, and unity this brings is outstanding. Thank you, Mr. Coffin, May the wind in your sails never falter.

[voodookitchenmama]

There it is again...I'll never stop hearing this song! It would be fun if there was a big crowd and everyone had a mug of cold beer. But..it's just the old chariot along... : )

[mariaashot]

We'll roll the old chariot along... that is our human Civilization. Thank you for the Music, Great and Good Voices everywhere! And thank you, too, above all, David Coffin! Bravissimo!

RIP to all to all those we lost at sea.

This song and "Bluenose" fuel the creation of model sailing ship ship kits in my humble, frosty prairie home. I enjoy almost every song David Coffin has produced. "Drake's Hammock" is inspirational as well. I sail, so I get it. Nothing so grand as a schooner like Bluenose.
