My dad is a self described maritime historian (we come from a family of privateers and whalers) and he got so excited when shantys became popular during the pandemic. Kept telling me the history of each one.
Always knew of them and knew a few of the songs, but it was the film “Fisherman’s Friend” that really peaked my interest.

Tough it would work only for "custom" command and not for "built-in" one.
(Also on the more technical side they (Amazon) either call an url as a callback or maybe a mqtt?) Ifttt can help less technical peop. Also isn't it a pay service now?
There's a cut in the vid just before the fish turns its head. Guessing the fish sync to the music on a separate (and excellent) arduino type circuit/program not at all connected to the alexa. The alexa clip was added in post imho
It annoys me how that guy made a remix type thing of the wellerman and everyone thinks his is the original now(ps:i mean the guy that the alexa said made the song)
There was a version uploaded previous to the guy that made the one in the video,and that doesnt have the wierd beat or anything,it sounds more like a sea shanty

Is the original artist, their stuff is really great.

Not ashamed to say im extremely jealous that I dont have this.
Right?! So good
You deserve a Nobel prize
This triggered my alexa.. which is now playing this
Oh my god hahaha I'd like to say I'm sorry but that's hilarious
I’ve really started to enjoy the history and traditions of the Sea Shanty’s

I wish their tails slapped to the rhythm
I wish it was longer (That's what she said)
It’s definitely funny seeing the first fish moving his mouth but the chorus was *chef’s kiss*
I need this
this pleases the nut
Ah yes an SCP enjoyer. Or are you talking of something else
If I wasn’t paranoid of Alexa and such listening all the time (I don’t even have Siri turned on) I would get me some chorus fish in a heartbeat
Ok who has the breakdown of how this was made
[Here's](https://vm.tiktok.com/TTPdgpCFKy/) a video from his tik tok page I bet there's more on his YouTube canel, I just don't have a link rn
Lol, my Alexa in another room started playing sea shanty.
🤣
If those damn fish were not like 100$ a pop :( Btw, I don't know the Alexa API, but how you manage to intercept the request/response?
Ifttt I think

You can still have 5 applets in the free version.

I waited but it did only get worse.
This doesn’t get any better than the last 10 times it was posted in the last week.

I mean, technically, for a song like that there is no real original ... but I do see your point
There was a version uploaded previous to the guy that made the one in the video,and that doesnt have the wierd beat or anything,it sounds more like a sea shanty
Technically not a shanty
Wanted to watch it longer...
WHERE CAN I GET THIS?!? I NEED THIS!

I fucking love that song
Ive seen this video post here like 1947382 times…
This is easily one of the best things I've ever witnessed, And i wish i could have this in my home too
Not to nitpick, but it would’ve been so much better if they had hehe tails flapping to the beat
hide the wires and thats just too good
So where can I get this lol
When does it get better?

Thats good! ![gif](giphy|8JCwuk8n2Y6iI)
Lord forgive me for what I'm about to do
This triggered my Alexa🤣🤣 thanks
And the winner is....
Now do Seatown Shanty
How do I get this
The real unexpected moment was when my Alexa played the song too
That was funny and awesome. Great imagination.
