    The Shanties you collect in Kingston are the worst

    They have the least harmony of any I've seen so far in the game. Some have none at all and really do live up to the name "chanty".

    I wish I could turn off some of the Shanties including most of the ones from Kingston.

    I have no idea which ones I've collected from where, but it would be nice to mute certain shanties from your "playlist."

    @somedelicook: Was just about to ask whether stopping and restarting them would change the song...

    Even simpler, you can just hit D-Pad right to skip to the next one. It only seems to work four or five times in a row and then they stop singing, but it's really quick to skip the occasional bad one.

    More games should have shanties, no matter what the setting or the genre is.

    My favorites are: Lowlands Away, Leave Her Johnny, Bully In The Alley, Drunken Sailor

    For some reason at 26m video just doesn't play for me. So I can't see what people are playing.

    You can listen to the shanties in the iOS app, too bad we can't just find those direct links and post them.

    @flippyandnod: The Android version of the companion app actually saves them locally on your device and then you can play them from there.

    Here's Roll Boys Roll and Way Me Susianah.

    Being in vicious naval battles with man o' wars whilst rogue waves and waterspouts are tear-assing all over the place, tends to add to the experience somewhat as well!

    They are, however, very easy to catch. I had to chase them down in Nassau and Havana. I snuck up on the ones in Kingston.

    If you look at the words, like 1/4 of the Shanties are about "rolling". What the hell is rolling and why are sailors doing it so often?

    I like 'Roll boys, Roll'. It is heavy with nautical innuendo.
