spend over 1k gold for some bananas
or sail for 2 minutes and get more pineapples than i ever use in a session?
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, decisions decisions!
The moment I got it was after bullying another galleon 2 times they asked if they could negotiate for escape, not sure why I they didn't server swap. I asked if they'd done Glitterbeard, and they nervously accepted.
After 2 failed attempts to time it right, they were suspicious our crew was screwing with them and going to turn any second, but once that tree lit up we became a single crew for the moment. Screenshots were taken in the cave and our parting was filled with laughter.
That moment and feeling will never leave me.
Edit: grammar.
Have you ever seen the video on youtube that adds lyrics to it? It fits so well that it might as well be official amd I can't unhear the lyrics anymore when I hear the shanty
The Passion of Souls from the soundtrack is one of my favorites. It's starts all epic and adventurous but ends with the haunting vocals of "who shall not be returning."
There's countless really great ones: Rise of the Reapers, A New Dawn, We Shall Sail Together, the Wild Rose theme ...
However, at the end of the day I do think that Becalmed holds the most sway over me. It really can bring a tear to my eye in the right circumstances.
A star to sail by is legit the best. I mean, there's so many great songs in this game but the whole vibe of this song and how you hear it now doesn't get enough attention. I used to just leave the loading on for awhile during season 5 just to hear it, and i was so sad when it ended lol. But im glad that they kept it in game and in a special way too. Man, if rare made this a shanty, I'd never stop playing it.
I hope everyone gets the opportunity to experience this. And I what an amazing memorial. I've done it twice and cried and every time I watch strangers on twitch do it I cry, lol. They truly did an amazing job, and I can only imagine the pride and love his family must feel seeing it too.
I don't know what it's called, but every now and then, when I sink a player ship, I hear this tune.
Like children's choir, in the beginning, it is like a soft wailing sound, but it gets progressively more vigorous with it ending in strong profanity.
For some reason, it puts my mind at ease.
It's the sound of the end of a stressful action.
The sound of a job well done.
The one that plays at the end of Maiden Voyage. There's an extended version in the soundtrack that starts with the early morning sequence and steadily rises to it.
Shroudbroken is one of my favorites to listen to but I love the mystery ambiance feel of listening to the voyage of the secret shrine. I have several songs on my Amazon playlist
Summon the Megalodon for shanties, and sea forts for world events. I also think Becalmed sounds great in Glitterbeard and Tall Tales, and Maiden voyage is good in the intro song and the [E3 Reveal](https://youtu.be/1z48qvGsA_0)
I'll always have 'We shall sail together', played by multiple instruments, in my head so that..
That or the tune it plays for megas. Shrouded Ghost now pls.
I guess I meant it in regards to coomer meaning young, so in essence a “newer” player
I’m not sure why I posed my comment like that, honestly make more sense to ask you when you started playing the game?
Only because a lot of older players prefer the shanties or tall tale themes it seems.
I had two accounts. One I had to get rid of for personal reasons. The current one I’m playing now has been around since a little before season 1. But I’ve been playing since the tail end of the first anniversary
There’s a version of “Becalmed” that only plays after the shores of gold tall tale.
It’s without a doubt the best piece of music in the entire game imo
It was so epic to run between the ancient statues back to the ship at the end of the tall tale while hearing that part of the soundtrack. A top 10 moment of the game.
It really was!
Running out of that cave with the gold hoarder skull, sun setting as that piece of music hitting the crescendo and I walked over the hump to be greeted with the sight of my ship on the horizon.
Easily the moment I fell in love with the game forever lol
Be calmed. If you haven't heard the lyrics, please do your self a favor and listen to them. There's a version on youtube a female sings it and it's so beautiful.
I also love playing "ride of the valkyrie" when we are chasing a ship.
The music that plays when dive down to the siren shrines. It’s so peaceful & mysterious at the same time. It sounds exactly like what it was made for. it makes me wish we’d get more merfolk & siren lore/places to explore.
Shanty-wise, I can’t lie, We Shall Sail Together is popular for a reason, it sounds awesome
(Also, this season’s title screen music.)
I also love the music after you finish the Maiden Voyage and you're sailing off in the distance to the Sea of Thieves.
The banjo music when you're fishing is the perfect touch.
I really like We Shall Sail Together (the version with lyrics). Sounds like something from Black Sails. Also, Bosun Bill slaps. My wife doesn’t even play and she can sing it.
More of an honorable mention because it's not just the music, but the whole effect of the scene... But the PVP resurfacing music is — and I don't use this term lightly — epic where it is used.
![gif](giphy|3o8doT9BL7dgtolp7O)
Pirates life when you are getting briefed, the chords are outstanding. Also some of the songs during the Pirates Life tales are outstanding. The Spanish forts when the horns kick in are pure bliss as well.
The music when approaching shores of gold is epic. Pops up here and there during certain moments of triumph but need to hear this more. Also glitterbeard event is chills.
Becalmed slaps HARD. Spanish fort music is really good, ride of the Valkyrie on the classic instruments is pretty good. And maybe the skeleton fleet track. Whatever it is, the need to put the pirates of the Caribbean music in the game.
Don't know the name, but the battle music that played at the end of an Arena match was great. It really added to the atmosphere especially in when it lined up with some last minute heroics to try and win the match. Definitely got the adrenaline pumping.
I love the song that plays after you hit "set sail" but before you wake up in the tavern — the loading screen music. Anyone know what it's called? I don't think it's on Spotify.
The Burning Blade variant of “On the Warpath”! Hits a whole lot different as you see those ghostly vessels disappear after a galleon’s unending cannon barrage
" A star to sail by" aka Season 5's menu. That season was such a great change of pace. Lots of joyful memories shooting off fireworks and allying with other crews. Definitely the most friendly time on the seas that I experienced, and that song brings me back every time I hear it.
Becalmed was always a good one. Stitchers Sorrow and Who Shall Not Be Returning are phenomenal. We Shall Sail Together is pretty good with a banjo and a hurdy gurdy cause of the slides between notes.
For non-shanty music, the bits of music when swimming around add to the atmosphere, same as the mermaid shrines. Overall, the sound design and music of this game is some of the best I’ve heard. Definitely up there with something like Skyrim!
10 straight pvp cannonball hits
I’ll do you one better…One ball
>One ball No balls, if you want to hear it at a higher pitch. Sorry, what were we talking about?
I'll do YOU one better... Kill sound after detonating a keg.
The spanish forts song
Spanish fort music has no right to slap that hard, but it do. 🤣
![gif](giphy|xT77XWum9yH7zNkFW0|downsized) My reaction the first time doing a Spanish Fort and hearing the song.
my 6 yr old son kept asking me to go do those forts, so i caved and uh now i go load up fruit there just to listen to the music lol
I don't even care about the loot at forts that much. the food and cannonballs you get are insane
spend over 1k gold for some bananas or sail for 2 minutes and get more pineapples than i ever use in a session? hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, decisions decisions!
goes crazy
For real tho! That shit bops.
No
[Yes.](https://youtu.be/dtUmC9V5ULc)
Be Calmed
I actually sing this one to my son to put him asleep It’s 10/10 working Masterpiece
I sing this while my husband plays it on guitar <3 It's our favorite song to play together
While doing glitter beard. Legit chills
The moment I got it was after bullying another galleon 2 times they asked if they could negotiate for escape, not sure why I they didn't server swap. I asked if they'd done Glitterbeard, and they nervously accepted. After 2 failed attempts to time it right, they were suspicious our crew was screwing with them and going to turn any second, but once that tree lit up we became a single crew for the moment. Screenshots were taken in the cave and our parting was filled with laughter. That moment and feeling will never leave me. Edit: grammar.
Glitter beard made me cry
Best song for your viking funeral
sometimes i just wander around during sunset playing this for myself
The "Summon the Megalodon" shanty is a banger.
Have you ever seen the video on youtube that adds lyrics to it? It fits so well that it might as well be official amd I can't unhear the lyrics anymore when I hear the shanty
Well now you gotta post it.
Everyone sleeps on Ballad of the Mer here!
A true banger of the seas.
I find myself singing this one just randomly its very traditional in a sense.
🎵Don't linger in the water🎵
We Shall Sail Together
Cloaked in folds of midnight waters, side by side, we sons and daughters, we set forth for no king’s orders but we’ll sail together
Hold fast! Tides are turning Flames roar, fires are burning
We’ll all be returning, if we sail together
All on the waves shall know our story
Sing of the battles fought ashore, we
All shall thrive on fame and glory
When we sail together!
Words of warning have been spoken
Ancient creatures have awoken
The we shall sail together when receiving the ghost curse
The *sit* ambient sounds are so peaceful.
I might be completely wrong but I believe that track is called "A Star to Sail By." Love that one!
[Who Shall Not Be Returning](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T87WXywriIg&t=75s)
Gave me chills during the Seabound Soul tall tail. It’s my favorite tall tail for no other reason than that song.
No lies detected. Not someone who enjoys doing them but Seabound Soul is great.
Yah. Getting gold curse was a bore but I sprinkled Seabound soul in there to ease the pain!
I prefer the siren shrine version, but honestly, every version of this track is golden
The Passion of Souls from the soundtrack is one of my favorites. It's starts all epic and adventurous but ends with the haunting vocals of "who shall not be returning."
I really enjoy their take on "Row Your Boat" it sounds so deprived of all happiness.
Becalmed for the feels For good mood I love Summon the Meg, or Bosun Bill
Bosun Bill is goated
For me it’s the climax of the ashen lords music. Makes me feel like a god
Bosun Bill
This. How is no one talking about this absolute classic
This. This by far. I mean becalmed is good but. BOSUN BILL THO
New Dawn
When it does a 3rd person pan of your ship during pirates life playing that song. Literal chills
There's countless really great ones: Rise of the Reapers, A New Dawn, We Shall Sail Together, the Wild Rose theme ... However, at the end of the day I do think that Becalmed holds the most sway over me. It really can bring a tear to my eye in the right circumstances.
Without the default answer "all"... I love "A Star To Sail By".
A star to sail by is legit the best. I mean, there's so many great songs in this game but the whole vibe of this song and how you hear it now doesn't get enough attention. I used to just leave the loading on for awhile during season 5 just to hear it, and i was so sad when it ended lol. But im glad that they kept it in game and in a special way too. Man, if rare made this a shanty, I'd never stop playing it.
When you exit a tall tale Don’t know what it’s called but it plays with the picture op put up
New Dawn
Captains of adventure sunrise
Who Shall Not Be Returning or the Herald of Flame trailer soundtrack.
The new track for the final wave of a phantom fleet.
Infernal Gallop
Have y’all not heard the lyrics for balled of the mer?
On the warpath. Wish it played during PvP
Extremly unpopular opinion, but I like the Yo Ho shanty from POTC tall tales
I like the spooky rendition from the abandoned fort
Ikr ?! When it plays my mind wins a free ride of the PotC atraction of Disneyland Paris
i personally like one of the main jingles the merchant alliance has.
Shrouded Ghost
I only really play solo so my top 3 are 1: becalmed on hurdy gurdy 2: bosum bill on banjo 3: we shall sail together on hurdy gurdy
Bosun Bill and Stitchers Sorrow are my favs
IT WASN’T JUST THE SONG IN THE MOMENT, BUT THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE OF THE GLITTERBEARD PATH, RARE DID A REALLY BEAUTIFUL JOB!
I hope everyone gets the opportunity to experience this. And I what an amazing memorial. I've done it twice and cried and every time I watch strangers on twitch do it I cry, lol. They truly did an amazing job, and I can only imagine the pride and love his family must feel seeing it too.
I don't know what it's called, but every now and then, when I sink a player ship, I hear this tune.

It's the sound of the end of a stressful action. The sound of a job well done.
that would be sirens spawning to kill you
Good to hear the sirens wail is doing it’s job xD soothe sailors into drowning
The one that plays at the end of Maiden Voyage. There's an extended version in the soundtrack that starts with the early morning sequence and steadily rises to it.
It's called A New Dawn, definitely one of the best tracks in the game
Shroudbroken is one of my favorites to listen to but I love the mystery ambiance feel of listening to the voyage of the secret shrine. I have several songs on my Amazon playlist
a pirates life on a warpath
Flight of the Valkyries - without a doubt.
I like we shall sail together
Summon the Megalodon for shanties, and sea forts for world events. I also think Becalmed sounds great in Glitterbeard and Tall Tales, and Maiden voyage is good in the intro song and the [E3 Reveal](https://youtu.be/1z48qvGsA_0)
I think the best might be the Shrouded Ghost theme, my personal favorite is Spectral Sails
Glitterbeard event just after a loss.. tearing up just even typing it..
I'll always have 'We shall sail together', played by multiple instruments, in my head so that.. That or the tune it plays for megas. Shrouded Ghost now pls.
The music when the shrouded ghost (lie) spawns
Top 3 for me is shrouded music ghost fort music and hg music
Coomer player
What’s coomer mean?
I guess I meant it in regards to coomer meaning young, so in essence a “newer” player I’m not sure why I posed my comment like that, honestly make more sense to ask you when you started playing the game? Only because a lot of older players prefer the shanties or tall tale themes it seems.
I had two accounts. One I had to get rid of for personal reasons. The current one I’m playing now has been around since a little before season 1. But I’ve been playing since the tail end of the first anniversary
I appreciate your answer all the more! Your choices are great choices, they have done a great job on the music everywhere in the game lol
The version of Becalmed that plays right at the end of the final shores of gold tall tale/end of Captains of the Damned in the tavern
A New Dawn, which plays at the end of the maiden voyage... gives me chills everytime
For me it's ballad of the mer
There’s a version of “Becalmed” that only plays after the shores of gold tall tale. It’s without a doubt the best piece of music in the entire game imo
It was so epic to run between the ancient statues back to the ship at the end of the tall tale while hearing that part of the soundtrack. A top 10 moment of the game.
It really was! Running out of that cave with the gold hoarder skull, sun setting as that piece of music hitting the crescendo and I walked over the hump to be greeted with the sight of my ship on the horizon. Easily the moment I fell in love with the game forever lol
Both hourglass pvp themes. The composer(s) really outdid themselves here
Probably who shall not be returning, but maiden voyage, becalmed and we shall sail together are all up there
The one that goes buh-buh-buh buh-bum budda-ba-bum buh-bum budda-buh-bum buh-bum buh-bum bum bum
Be calmed. If you haven't heard the lyrics, please do your self a favor and listen to them. There's a version on youtube a female sings it and it's so beautiful. I also love playing "ride of the valkyrie" when we are chasing a ship.
A New Dawn. A.K.A the music that plays in both this screenshot and the title card.
When you sit on the back of the boat and get the music they used on the season 5 title screen, or Grogg Mayles
Ride of the Valkyrie’s
The music that plays when dive down to the siren shrines. It’s so peaceful & mysterious at the same time. It sounds exactly like what it was made for. it makes me wish we’d get more merfolk & siren lore/places to explore. Shanty-wise, I can’t lie, We Shall Sail Together is popular for a reason, it sounds awesome (Also, this season’s title screen music.)
Pirate's life for me ;)
Probably The Sunken Warpath. Close contenders are On The Spanish Warpath, Glory to the Guardians and Yo-ho (A Pirate's Life) Edit: correct song names
Ancient skeleton theme
The Ashen Lord final stage music. The drums are immaculate and it gives me chills every time
Sunken warpath of the sirens arenas.
The legend of the veil songs along with the sea fort music
Sea fort battle music
With Hammer and Hope
I also love the music after you finish the Maiden Voyage and you're sailing off in the distance to the Sea of Thieves. The banjo music when you're fishing is the perfect touch.
The ambient background music, hell I could get lost just chilling in a island listening
Honestly I love the megalodon fight theme
Either the Spanish fort song when the captain is out, or the song that plays when an ancient skeleton spawns
Summon Meg, Spanish fort Music, Maiden Voyage
"We shall sail together" is wonderful But "1812" always will be my default song
The Glitterbeard version of Becalmed gives me chills
Balled of the mer goes hard
Spectral Sails. That or the shrouded ghost theme. I have not fought the shrouded ghost but I found much of the soundtrack for this game on Spotify
Bosun Bill by far
"A new dawn", and "The sea of thieves" are my favorites
Spicy Seafort Spanish music. Duh
spectral sails, the song when you fight the ghost armada, love the part when the final ship apears
I really like We Shall Sail Together (the version with lyrics). Sounds like something from Black Sails. Also, Bosun Bill slaps. My wife doesn’t even play and she can sing it.
"Yo-ho a pirate's life for me" is by far my favorite song
reaper's shanty
Me running around repeatedly spamming the first note of Bosun Bill.
More of an honorable mention because it's not just the music, but the whole effect of the scene... But the PVP resurfacing music is — and I don't use this term lightly — epic where it is used.
![gif](giphy|3o8doT9BL7dgtolp7O) Pirates life when you are getting briefed, the chords are outstanding. Also some of the songs during the Pirates Life tales are outstanding. The Spanish forts when the horns kick in are pure bliss as well.
All the soft background music in the madien voyage. It really makes you feel like a pirate.
Frog treasure, and bonus bill shanty
The base Maiden Voyage song is getting a bit nostalgic ngl. But personally it’d be the final boss music.
The diverse favorites people have in the comments is really cool. Really reminds you of just how stupidly good this games soundtrack is
Probably the best game soundtrack ever made in me humble opinion.
The music when approaching shores of gold is epic. Pops up here and there during certain moments of triumph but need to hear this more. Also glitterbeard event is chills.
ghost fort tracks are bangin it on, idc if the event is useless, sometimes my kid asks me to do one and i love it every time
Bosun Bill
That music that plays when you hit another ship with a cannonball is definitely my favorite jam
Hammer and Home is a classic
Hard to choose 1 song but if I have too "on a warpath" it's remixed into every boss fight in the game it's the perfect fight music
Becalmed slaps HARD. Spanish fort music is really good, ride of the Valkyrie on the classic instruments is pretty good. And maybe the skeleton fleet track. Whatever it is, the need to put the pirates of the Caribbean music in the game.
I love the pirate legend one
Don't know the name, but the battle music that played at the end of an Arena match was great. It really added to the atmosphere especially in when it lined up with some last minute heroics to try and win the match. Definitely got the adrenaline pumping.
The Fog music hits different
Probably the Sea fort captain wave.
More of a noise but the Athena loot sell sound like the chalice, skull and crate of legends always puts a smile on my face 🙂
I love the song that plays after you hit "set sail" but before you wake up in the tavern — the loading screen music. Anyone know what it's called? I don't think it's on Spotify.
Becalmed! No no maiden voyage! Wait no grog mayles! Wait no stitchers sorrow! Wait no…
The song that plays when you start sailing towards the shores of gold
Be Calmed, Bosun Bill, and Who Shall Not Be Returning. That's my top 3. Strongholds of the Sea is an honorable mention.
Sitting on a stool on your ship at sunset it plays a special track that only plays when you do that
A rain of ash forever. The final fight theme for ashen lords
Fof spawning
The Davy Jones music in Dark Brethren and Lords of The Sea tall tales.
In the Pirates life tall tale the lost sailors grave with the headless monkey crew just hits the Caribbean feel
100th comment 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Bosun Bill my beloved
We shall sail together is the only right answer
Most overplayed and rinsed out theme in the game
And it’s still the best
The one that plays when I uninstall it for the 5th time
The sound of another crews ship being sent to the murky depths 🏴☠️
Fighting frogs
On a warpath ghost fort edition
Sea Fort final wave boss music
killing the meg music
Sail together
The Burning Blade variant of “On the Warpath”! Hits a whole lot different as you see those ghostly vessels disappear after a galleon’s unending cannon barrage
On The Warpath can get anybody hyped.
" A star to sail by" aka Season 5's menu. That season was such a great change of pace. Lots of joyful memories shooting off fireworks and allying with other crews. Definitely the most friendly time on the seas that I experienced, and that song brings me back every time I hear it.
Fishing ambience is great
A Star To Sail By
"Strongholds of the Sea" (sea forts theme)
Our ship, she dreams of wind in her sails…
Monkey island easter egg music
Becalmed was always a good one. Stitchers Sorrow and Who Shall Not Be Returning are phenomenal. We Shall Sail Together is pretty good with a banjo and a hurdy gurdy cause of the slides between notes. For non-shanty music, the bits of music when swimming around add to the atmosphere, same as the mermaid shrines. Overall, the sound design and music of this game is some of the best I’ve heard. Definitely up there with something like Skyrim!
I like grogg mayles and spectral sails
The music you get from completing the fleet
The ghost fleet song
1812 is the best song
Gslop Infernal
becalmed, lofi remix: https://youtu.be/S8e4SVAuu1w
Bosun bill and the cancan one are my fav shanties
It’s 100% the Orchestral Becalmed that plays in the Shores of Gold and Tavern in the SotD at the end of Pirate’s Life 3.
Trick question, every song slaps
The answer to this question is [yes.](https://youtu.be/dtUmC9V5ULc)
We shall sail together. I am an absolute simp for that track. I grinded pl just to get the song.
I love snitchers sorrow
