Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag (Sea Shanty Edition) VOL. 2 - Lowlands Away (Track 02)

Sounds like the singer starts crying after the death part - he starts to crack his voice

I'm that dude screaming Heeeeeeeeey!!!!!!

🤍💖❤🤍❤💖🤍

This shanty shocked me once I finally paid full attention to the lyrics. I was very sad when I first recognized the meaning of the song.

I dreamed my love… CAME… in my sleep

In to my to-do list !

I dreamed a dream the other night
Lowlands, lowlands away me John
My love she came, dressed all in white
Lowlands away
I dreamed my love came in my sleep
Lowlands, lowlands away me John
Her cheeks were wet, her eyes did weep
Lowlands away
She came to me at my bedside
Lowlands, lowlands away me John
All dressed in white, like some fair bride
Lowlands away
And bravely in her bossom fair
Lowlands, lowlands away me John
Her red, red rose, my love did wear
Lowlands away
She made no sound, no word she said
Lowlands, lowlands away me John
And then i knew my love was dead
Lowlands away
Then i awoke to hear the cry
Lowlands, Lowlands away me John
Oh watch on deck
Oh watch, ahoy
Lowlands away

These memories are memories that u can never properly explain to anyone....

Best song on the game

Mi favorita ❤️.Cada vez que subía siempre buscaba que la cantarán je.

Thank you, Ubisoft. No matter what people (including myself) say about AC, they're responsible for bringin' the past to present generations in a way no one could deliver. To think that this song is like a parchment in a bottle. That survived the test of time. They sang it before. We hear it now. Blissful!

Does anyone else think this sounds like Homer Simpson singing? I can't un-hear it now.

The thing about this song is that, for me, it played right after Blackbeard's death when you are forced to retreat and slowly sail off... it made it more tragic and emotional

My favorite shanty, beautiful and powerful. Want to make my own like this

the only shanty allowed in my ship

I literally just got a assassin's Creed black flag tattoo now I'm playing again for the sea shanties🤣

Would have loved to hear Stan Rogers to sing this

This shanty, while it on the surface seems that the loved one of the singer died in a literal sense, I think his love died in a more sylbolic way, she was wearing a wedding dress, and a red rose, so My interpretation goes as follows
This sailor had a sweetheart in the mainland, and he went out with the fishing Vessels to earn their keep, one night, while the sailor was in one of his multi-day tripas he dreamed of his love and how she left him, why we won't know, maybe she felt abandoned, maybe she was pressured into it by her family, and so the dream was the last goodbye his love left for him, once he reached the land and found out what happened, he joined a bucaneer fleet, eventually ending up with us in the Jackdaw.

Pourquoi j'ai pas connu ce jeu à l'époque !? Même en 2023 il est excellent !

When Aldrich ruminated on the fading of the fire, it inspired visions of a coming age of the deep sea.
He knew the path would be arduous, but he had no fear. He would devour the gods himself.

I remember this shanty every moment i sail the sea, no attack, no treasure, just feeling the wind and enjoying the moment...

I’d love to sing this with a group it’s so good I didn’t think this game’s soundtrack would catch my attention I was very wrong

My favourite sea shanty song

i found it!

Honestly this is the only songs that made me tear up

Lowlands away...

Watch on deck oh watch the hull please boys i beg 🙏 😢

If the Dutch reunite belgium flanders, french Flanders and frissian Germany this should be the national anthem

I can't £μ¢に¡№г handle it
It's so f-ing painful
I'll kms one day
I can't

I can't
I can't
S u can't
Can't
I fi up bcjfgbfg I can't
I can't

Kmnnaqa as far hh
I can't

Shoutout to the backup singers in the shantys, always out of pitch and tune (makes me love them even more 🏴‍☠️)

On my play through this played right before the last mission

From the comments section it seems like a lot of people actually ENJOYED "black flag". It's my favorite AC game right after AC2. But for some reason, the hardcores were completely butthurt because Black flag did something DIFFERENT for a change. I got so bored with ONLY cities and climbing. The only difference between 3 games about part 3 were different city layout and new skins. THAT'S IT. I loved everything about black flag because we got to do something DIFFERENT. Idk why all the hate for THIS one and the one with the Indian kid.

Cried for 30 mins with this song on repeat

AYEEEE CAPTAIN KENWAYYYYY

This song still giving me chills in 2024

When you've spent five months at sea, your supplies were running low, and there was no British cargo ship in vicinity:

This song is literally about Edward. A man embarks on a Voyage across the sea, where his wife sadly dies while he’s away.

pulling into Tortuga "I dreamed a dream..."
whip the ship back out towards the ocean to do a couple laps around the island

This shanty is so nostalgic

Sigma tears were fallen 🤺

Just replayed AC4 on PC and whenever this song played I would burst out into song like I was on fucking Glee or something.

this is my favourite!

It’s a good song tho

homer simp

Playing this when my future wife dies

This is the one everyone remembers most. Your life has most likely changed considerably since the time of this game. Makes it more bittersweet memories

One of the most beautiful countries on earth.
