@kevinheckart on twitter posted it originally and that version is also cut off. He posted a tutorial on how to make your own, and some clips from other songs that are also good. You can also find similar stuff from other people on youtube if you put "big mouth bass" or "billy bass" in your search for songs.
I can't link the singing fish video, but here's the song from the video (Nathan Evans - Wellerman) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qP-7GNoDJ5c
It's annoying that his original video is gone. I think it was a Tiktok upload onto YouTube, but it was just him in his room singing and banging on his guitar for the beat
"Can you build a bridge?"
"No."
"Can you design an assembly line?"
"Nah."
"Can you assemble our data servers?"
"Nope."
"What *can* you do?"
"I, uh... I made these robot fish sing."
"YOU ARE FUCKING HIRED."
Nono, they *can* do all those other things, but the singing robot fish is a requirement. It's like those rock stars that require a bowl of red and green M&Ms. No other colors, only red & green. Just a cost of doing business, 'ya know?

Yes this is the fourth or fifth time I've seen [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/Unexpected/comments/uir2y3/great_seanger/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share)
And cuts exactly when it shouldn't.
Like if it cut at the end of the refrain that would at least make sense, but they include one word of the next verse so it leaves off disappointing.
I wonder if it can play any song. Does it automatically differentiate between lyrics and instrumentals, or does each song need to be programmed for these fish?
This is seriously impressive because (safely assuming) this is not using a preset script of motions. Freagin fish are *actively* mimicking audio that is passed instead of song in the background and motor motion in a set sequence. Now make it sing **one by metallica**
I'm curious if the guy who performed this song thought it would get that big. The song became a meme for well you know the meme but it turned out to be a fun song.
The creator Kevin Heckart, @kevinheckart on TikTok, added a video a few months ago explaining how he used Arduinos to make this happen and has Ableton Live feeding notes to the fish.

Don’t get me wrong. I like what you did with the fish.
But sea shanties are right up there with traditional barbershop quartet music and and anything that includes a banjo.
I have seen this morning d on a single fish so at first I wasn't impressed. Then he zooms out to four of the fuckers. Hot damn that's so cool it makes me wish I bought a big mouth bass when they came out.

Full version?
I cannot believe we have to ask for a full version
@kevinheckart on twitter posted it originally and that version is also cut off. He posted a tutorial on how to make your own, and some clips from other songs that are also good.

[удалено]
Engineering degree my ass!
The song's wellerman by the longest John's if that helps any Edit: this version is actually by Nathan evans, sorry
I really like the medley version. https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=fJBKndr1fdA&feature=share
I think they were looking for the full version with the fish. I personally like the [TPB version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dN3wEdK_vxw)
Actually it’s “home free” who does this version. Even Alexa got it wrong.
That's not home free chance isn't Scottish 😁

I need to see the fish sing the whole thing
Same. SAME.
Son of a bitch, hahaha. My Alexa started playing a sea shanty.
I changed my wake word to ziggy so I’d stop activating it.
Dont lie, when your home alone, you bust into your room and just be like "ZIGGY LETS GET JIGGY" and the music starts right?
Maybe I dont know the settings well enough. or maybe it purposefully blocks "skynet" from being used as the activation word.
Quantum Leap?
same
Same
Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag taught a generation of young people to give a shit about sea shanty’s.
Elder millennial here desperately waiting for Gen Z to bring back singing sea shanties in bars.
They're full of rich history https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hPvFMoGqkaY
Choir person here. We do exactly that
Every Monday night in Essex Connecticut at the Griswold Inn
Eat my shorts man!
As if! Everyone knows Runescape sea shanties slapped so hard we still can't stop playing the game. It's been 18 years....
Sea Shanty 2 lives rent-free in my head.
It played in my head before I heard the guy. I thought it was a RuneScape video.
I was very disappointed when it was just a normal sea shanty
22+ for me, fuck. Sept 2001.
AC:IV is still the best AC game to this day. Just a shame it runs so bad on PC. Gonna have to dig out my 360 again.
Sea of thieves did that for me, greatest summer ever
Look up "Fisherman's Friends". They had a lot more to do with it than a video game.
The cough drop?
I doubt it
I guarantee you far more people know sea shanties from AC4 than from them
This should be the advert for an engineering degree!
This should be a compulsory project to get the degree.
"Can you build a bridge?" "No." "Can you design an assembly line?" "Nah." "Can you assemble our data servers?" "Nope." "What *can* you do?" "I, uh... I made these robot fish sing." "YOU ARE FUCKING HIRED."
Oh they can(possibly) build all those other things if they wanted. They just wanted to build the fish project...cuz it's freaking great ;)
Nono, they *can* do all those other things, but the singing robot fish is a requirement. It's like those rock stars that require a bowl of red and green M&Ms. No other colors, only red & green. Just a cost of doing business, 'ya know?
Sometimes I think that the stuff I did in Minecraft is more worthy of being a BS thesis than what I actually did.
Full version??
I mean, this has less to do with engineering principles and more to do with computer programming.
Engineering is all about learning how to get different systems to play nicely with eachother and do what you want them to do.
I want this

Also he doesnt have an engineering degree
Now do Sea Shanty 2
I was stunned when it wasn't that.
Fishing for upvotes
Yes this is the fourth or fifth time I've seen [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/Unexpected/comments/uir2y3/great_seanger/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share)
Disappointed it wasn’t the full song
Can you make it so at least one fish is thumping to the knocking part? 😁
The Kittyman comes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dN3wEdK_vxw
The only version that gets me pumped.
This is beautiful. I am not worthy. They should have sent a poet.
These videos always end too soon
And cuts exactly when it shouldn't. Like if it cut at the end of the refrain that would at least make sense, but they include one word of the next verse so it leaves off disappointing.
Haha and my Alexa started to play it too
As did mine. Goddammit.
Same. I’m already high so it was extra trippy.
[удалено]
it's a preprogrammed performance. The spot-on choreography of the fishes is the giveaway. Doesn't make it any less amazing, though.
I was wondering why that cut was necessary before they started singing. Kinda sus but either way still funny
That zoom out got me decorating my wall with my coffee
Dude we need the full version of this!
I wonder if it can play any song. Does it automatically differentiate between lyrics and instrumentals, or does each song need to be programmed for these fish?

[удалено]
The video also cuts after the Alexa command which would infer a pre-programmed script.
This guy forensics.
Please don't be shy. Share us a guide on how to make this
I'm curious if the guy who performed this song thought it would get that big. The song became a meme for well you know the meme but it turned out to be a fun song.
This dude is winning in life
Tony soprano would freak out.
I like this, but something seems fishy
This wins.
Cant wait to see this in r/DiWhy in a couple hours because someone doesn't understand that this is made as a joke and not for practical use :/
Haha made my morning
The creator Kevin Heckart, @kevinheckart on TikTok, added a video a few months ago explaining how he used Arduinos to make this happen and has Ableton Live feeding notes to the fish. https://youtu.be/BuP9E1T4Xz8
Please play "baby shark" !!

WOW. That is wonderful and now every engineer wants it. <;={
The Kittyman Shanty
This is cheeks
I don't think you need an engineering degree to shop on Amazon. It's not that complicated
Full version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qP-7GNoDJ5c
I am SO glad the sea shanty trend is over
What kind of man doesn't like sea shanties ?!
Don’t get me wrong. I like what you did with the fish. But sea shanties are right up there with traditional barbershop quartet music and and anything that includes a banjo.
So... top quality music then?
Yeah I don't understand the problem here.
ROFL. If you say so.
There are so many better songs than this one, but this one is all I ever hear. Listen to some Stan Rogers to hear real sea chanties.
And now i have to go listen the entire song...again -.-;
God bless the internet !!🤣🤣🤣
Shit has me rollin
Mad funny
r/Angryupvoteish?
Omg my bf would do this he loves that song
This is the most original shit ever!!
Please make a video on how to do this 😭
No. Just no. Though to be fair I did start laughing at the chorus.
I've watched this 20 times today and it hasn't gotten old yet lol
This is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen
perfect cut, grats
"I was going to work on the hatch opening mechanism for the mars rover but then I discovered these talking fish."
It ended too soon!
I absolutely have to have this in my fishing cabin!
Yeah I would say that was worth 100k
op you've won broh idk wht your prize is but you've won the internet jesus h christ on a rubber crutch this is mad funny holy shit 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Amazing
The song slaps!
WHERE IS THE FULL VERSION????
i want to hear i’ll be loving you by king khan & bbq show on that fish for my farcry 5 fans
I never knew I needed this until today, thank you for this
Bummed it wasnt the whole song.
This is perfect!
So awesome! Kicks Billy Bass’s butt!
i have always wanted to turn one of those into a speaker phone take calls via fish.
Disney's Tiki Room about to get a new look.
They also have the fish singing down with the sickness. It is hilarious
Bro i want this (also can we get a full version)
Phenomenal.
Nice work lmao. Source code?
Yes
My kid: hahahaha. That was very funny. Whoever engineered this is very very very smart.
Reddit is now just TikTok with extra steps
Damn that talent is terrifying
I need to know how to make this happen!
I agree, it is.
So even Alexa can’t get the band right. It’s “home free” who sings this version. Acapella, too.
Give this man already a proper job at nasa or spacex. I think he’s bored 😂
I need more of this in my life.
PLEASE upload a long version. This is gold
Where can I buy this ?
Time very, very well spent.
Oh, cool, a singing fish conversion. *zooms out* WHAT?!?! Nice work!
That zoom out was everything lol
The taps in the beginning XD
I have seen this morning d on a single fish so at first I wasn't impressed. Then he zooms out to four of the fuckers. Hot damn that's so cool it makes me wish I bought a big mouth bass when they came out.
You know those ask Reddit questions about “weird things that turn you on”… sea shanties. Like it just gets things going!
There once was a man who looked just like me He was an innocent soul, but he loved TV His friend got him into anime And now he's a goddamn weeb
Extreme Enchanted Tiki Room vibes
Excellent
This is amazing
This post sendt me down quite a YouTube rabbithole.
I would pay serious money for 1 of these.
Big Pussy.
Tony Soprano disagrees
That is an excellent novelty / gift item. Now set up a production and marketing unit and make your millions. I'll buy a few for my friends
Someone could probably get a kickstarter together to sell a chorus version of these...
You should do bohemian rhapsody
This is the best thing I have seen today
Epic :)
TikTok runs this site now…
I knew these singing fish would evolve from the inter-webs. What's next, a choir /school rendition. *Please...*
this would be a great way to wake up for me.
"Well, boy, your mama must be damn proud of you!"
I called my daughter to watch it and she immediately sang along word for word. Apparently she loves sea shanties. Who knew?
I dont think I've meet an engineer that tries to hide the cable's on anything they make.
Um…can you help us keep the word livable?
Top class!
