- did i include captain hook in this just to make a sea shanty? maybe.
Many years ago, Brian David Gilbert and Jonah Scott talked about how most of ABBA's music could be sung by Halloween villains. This year, they turned that 3 minute conversation into a full album.

Brian you are a true fucking visionary. Props to Jonah Scott but you sir, are the true gift
"I try to reach for you, but the hook makes it hard" LMFAOOO
this album has made my week. im very excited to put the songs on a halloween playlist
I truly love this. PLEASE UPLOAD TO SPOTIFY ALREADY, YOU BEAUTIFUL, DEMENTED GENIUS!
This album is absolutely wonderful both from the humor and it actually sounds amazing. I really hope that you continue doing more music things like this because this was spectacular.
Oh hey this vampire song seems pretty good- THERE'S MOOOOOOOORE!
@C H A R L O T T E 🌹🥰 I dont approve
oh shit this thing has other colors
This album has been the highlight of my week
Literally how I got into this xD
My literal reaction 😂 all these songs have made my entire month
Wow I'm glad that Brian didn't trade away his laptop for nothing, the gurdy really makes this one

this definitely feels like brian just needed an excuse to use his hurdy gurdy and it became a masterpiece
There isn't any hurdy gurdy in this song. That's an accordion midi
@@MooseEatsBears the subtitles say Hurdy Gurdy.
@@trophemancer7327 oops! Well there sure is egg on my face. Yeah the drone tone is a Hurdy Gurdy =)
Especially since captain hook isn't even really a Halloween villain lol
@@R03N_01 you know, captain hook, michael myers' older brother
Such a supportive crew! No questions asked. "Oh, you need to sing about missing your hand, sure I'll join". Hook is a lucky man, and a good captain to earn such empathy from his crew.
He did seems kind off forceful about it,he was demanding it at times
@@thewindysage1538 Yeah but he's also really polite in the begining and he makes sure to tell Smee that hes doing well.
No pirate can resist a sea shanty.

This is why BDG left Polygon. He's been playing the long game, and I am so happy he has had the time to do the crazy amazing stuff hes been doing. Keep it up!
It’s a shame that we won’t get any more Unraveled, but if it was gonna put a damper on BDG’s creativity then it was a necessary loss.
He left? Didn't knew that, what's s he doing now? Beside pop sea shanties
@@pflasterstrips7254 what do you mean? He's doing pop sea shanties, that's what he's doing.
@@pflasterstrips7254 he said he didn't want to be limited in his creativity and as employee you always are, even though polygon gave him considerable freedom already.
So for a while now, he does whatever he feels like and it has been a wild mix!
@@Nathanael_Forlorn That does sound like behind the scenes, polygon was pretty restrictive. Which is the Polygon I know.
reasons this is the funniest piece of music ever in history ever:
- it starts out as a sea shanty with no obvious link to SOS but when you least expect it it transitions
- it's been shoehorned into being in 3
- the tempo is totally wrong
- the backing vocals start as being sung by a fake crew trying to join in but very rapidly drop all pretenses and turn into backing vocals
- the content of the lyrics, if you actually listen to them, is ridiculous when sung like an upbeat sea shanty
- hysterically bad pipe solo
- hysterically bad pipe solo is interrupted by rowdy crew
- it slows down slightly at the end
- did I mention our lord and saviour bdg has *put SOS by ABBA in 3*
you fool. the funniest part is that *captain hook isnt even a halloween monster*
@@yupekosi413 i mean captain hook is a very popular halloween costume
It's even better because I don't know any of these songs by name, so when I hear them it hits even harder.
I think sea shanties being upbeat but actually being depressing and miserable is fairly common.
After all they have to be sung at tempo for working, but sailors are miserable
What does “putting in 3” mean? I know absolutely nothing about music.
When BDG has an idea, does it even pass through a "why?" filter like in a human's brain
Probably not and I wouldn't want it any other way.
It does, but the answer is always “why not?”
I love that this implies Brian isn’t human… because it fits
He's ascended
@@speckofdignity2487 everybody knows he's not a person. He's a ◇°•brand•°◇
Brian really sings "all the love you gave me nothing else can save me" to his hand, huh
😳
Sometimes you just get hooked.
I was just thinking that this song makes a lot more sense if you think of it as Hook mourning the loss of "self-love".
I absolutely hate that i never thought of it this way until now.
If i had a nickel every time BDG made a song that involved losing his hand, i'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Now I also need every ABBA song to be turned into a sea shanty.

AAAAAAHHHHH!!!! PAAAAAIIIINNNN!!!!!!
I broke my hand yesterday because of the hate comments I get all the time. I was so angry that I punched a hole in my computer. Please don't hate me, dear lou
No offence to you in particular but it’s kinda annoying when you say that you “need” a piece of content. I would also appreciate that if that happens though.
@@goombasaurus125 I actually feel the same way when I read similar comments and now I wish I'd worded mine differently because I didn't mean to be directing it at Brian. I wasn't demanding, or even asking, for more "content", it was just me saying that, as a lover of both ABBA and sea shanties, I have now heard the potential for how well the two can combine. I don't need "content", I can go sing ABBA songs as sea shanties myself!
Be the change you want to be in the world.
I think what makes these funnier for me is that I'm imagining these songs in the context of Mamma Mia
Captain Hook but he has 3 Possible Dads and loves them all equally 💖
excuse YOU, in the context of mamma mia this would be sung by captain hook as the child's parent in a duet with......his hand??? presumably????? which is one of the child's three possible fathers?????????

@@driveasandwich6734 Brian, David, and Gilbert. The holy trinity.
Captain Hook giving orders to the crew mid-song is a GENIUS touch
Same vibe as Bowie in "Magic Dance" which is honestly a timeless classic.
These songs have that quality of being alone in your house with a tune stuck in your head and not really knowing the song so you sing the lyrics as whatever you’re doing at that moment and you feel truly insane.
I was belting Lay Your Blood On Me doing dishes and my roommate came home and was so afraid and confused. Its December but Ahhh!bba still goes hard af
I've formed this narrative that this is relatively soon after the fight in which he lost his hand. His crew is less sure of what to do, he's clearly very distraught. This is the raw, young Hook we've also wanted to see.
Yeah, this number really feels like it's the crew working through their Dark Night Of The Soul. Hook's the only one crying; everyone else is too busy or too drunk. The captain doesn't want the crew to see him like this. But, dammit. Who else could bridge the gap between master and commanded? Of course it's Smee; nobody else can safely handle the captain when he's emotionally vulnerable.
Not only does the song offer simple catharsis, it reaffirms the bonds of the untrustworthy. These blackhearted bastards don't care about Hook or his hand. They don't have to share in his misery, only his determination to go on, in the face of all doubts and a teenager who can fly.
@@russelljohnson7004 And I'll be damned if they didn't follow his every order throughout. They gave him backups. They gave him pipes. They gave him space to grieve. Truly, the tale Disney was too scared to show us.
Thank god we're getting a full album of these
It's more of an EP, since it's only 5 songs
Very good profile pic, I approve
Currently getting another one. He just dropped two more!
Captain Hook's inclusion as a "Halloween Villain" is questionable, but this song is good enough that we should all let it slide. Also, MORE HURDY GURDY PLEASE!
Any doubts we may have had have been completely eliminated after actually hearing the song.
I dunno, I have seen pirates on Halloween every year of my whole life...
In the musical, Captain Hook does have multiple musical based breakdowns. So...canon.
The musical?? 👀
@@ahobbit1273 Peter Pan…the musical
@@literally_a_crow Can we sneak this into it?
Just replace one of hook's normal songs with this?
@@coolgreenbug7551 i mean,,,,,I wish.
Definitely my favorite song on the EP. The only thing that could improve it is if it was performed onstage with pirates ballet dancing and doing trapeze stunts in the background to visually represent Hook's anguish.
I would watch tf out of that. Actual Cannibal Shia LaBeouf (Live) vibes
… How much do we need to crowdfund for that one?
Dream Ballet
"Pay me no mind" 3 minutes later "EVERYONE MUST BE SINGING"
i think my favorite part about this is despite the pipe solo being hot garbage, the crew is so supportive. they are completely here for that dude playing his heart out on them pipes.
going back in time to show this to ten year old me, who loved abba’s sos and was disturbed by Captain Hook
This is just iconic
This is very specific.
Tailor made
the amount of acting he put in his singing is totally amazing. With the somewhat piratey pronounciation, weirdly placed accents, captains sloppy singing and the total anguish and pain in his heart and the close but hierarchichal relationship with his crew. Amazing
Telling my kids this was The Decemberists.
Best comment
I see no difference.
THIS IS SO FUNNY
I am hugging you gently rn
Help I can’t stop laughing
Props that I can so clearly see The image of Hook starting this song as a proper lament, then getting caught up in the ambience and trying to make an actual performance out of it, and by the end the entire crew is there, rocking back and forth with arms wrapped around each other’s shoulders as they caterwaul.
I thought this was just supposed to be “Captain hook” like just a vague scary Halloween pirate character like vampire instead of Dracula, specifically. But no, he references Peter Pan and tick tock croc. This makes this video so much better in my opinion lmao
Hell yeah. The Hurdy Gurdy makes a return!
Is that a hurdy gurdy or is that an accordian?
@@Leighv i mean the hurdy gurdy is a classic pirate instrument and we've seen that bdg has access to a hurdy gurdy but not to an accordion, so its probably a hurdy gurdy
@@bingoccolon idk it doesn’t sound like a hurdy gurdy and accordion sounds can be easily emulated on a keyboard. Plus, Jonah Scott played the background music not Brian.
@@Leighv the subtitles say hurdy gurdy
@@sarahgent2674 Ah, you are correct! In that case I’m glad the hurdy gurdy has made its reappearance in the BDGillbertverse.
"Pay me no mind, I just came here to sing" That line is so underrated
it's been 8 months since this came out and my favorite line in this song is still the "very good, mr smee" after "that damn tick tock of the clock in the croc that i hear" bc it implies that hook didn't even Write his own song about his hand, he made mr smee write it
I thought it was to compliment Mr. Smee on his background vocals?
@@rbl4112I believe that is the case
Ok but this is in a different key signature than the original song - this is in 6/8. I love the mix of absolutely ridiculous and musically clever that this man continually creates.
The closed captions actually mention that
Dang, that's attention to detail. Like a sea shanty. Brian knows his stuff.
just a bit of pedantry: you mean time signature, not key signature
This is giving me strong "Captain Hook used to be one of the
Lost Boys" vibes
The CCs are great on all of these yall shouldn't miss them
Bless you I almost missed out on *bad piping*
Omg thank you for pointing this out
You don't know how weird it was to see this notification to pop up on my phone while watching something else only for it to IMMEDIATELY be replaced by the notification for the next song, likely uploaded at basically the same time.
That happened to me to
I was so confused for a few seconds lol
I just want to take a moment to say fuck everyone in this thread(so far) other than Mimic.
Fair enough
Not now charlotte..
i just realized the frase "can you hear me SOS" takes a totally different meaning when its sung by a pirate
His little giggle as he sings “SOS”
@C H A R L O T T E 🌹🥰 seems legit
I hate that this composition exists. I love every second of it.
I was listening to Lay All Your Blood while waiting for this! How did I never know I needed this album?
bdg out here SINGLE-HANDEDLY filling this year's Halloween playlist :)
This is wasnt just him
Hey, I see what you did there
I think we can all agree this happens in the "Our flag means death" universe, Stede and the crew drunk signing on a boat after Ed dumped them all into the ocean :')
I like how it's insinuated that this is a regular occurrence, as all the crew member already know the lyrics and harmonization.
I'm hooked on this album
I'm Draculaed on this album.
Badum-tisshhhhh!
Hehe
Hook
I SEA what you did there
I love how chaotic this is
Yes it feels .... Genuine
Love the idea that when Hook gets depressed or emotional about losing his hand the crew all come together to sing with him to make him feel better, what a supportive band of pirates!
This feels very on-brand for both Brian David Gilbert _and_ Captain Hook.
I've never heard the original ABBA songs. These will always be the originals for me.
god i wish that was me so i could experience abba songs again for the first time
really nice of the crew to help Captain Hook through his grief
pirate or lost boy, all you've got in neverland is your friends.
can't wait for the follow up cover:
Why did it have to be Smee
Those waves sure are vaguely hypnotic
So that's why I feel sleepy and pliant
"the love you gave me" really takes on a new meaning when he's singing about his hand
This is officially the greatest album ever created and you can't tell me otherwise
Jonah Scott’s backing vocals have elevated this
brian killed the hook with this one
ha
"Even if we painstakingly piece together something lost it doesn't mean it will be back to normal"
-Captain Hook
3 months later and I still unironically enjoy this song. When that chorus hits my heart fuckin swells like I'm listening to an epic war chant.
This has so much theater energy and it makes me so very happy
I'm watching these back to back and for the first time ever, I'm like "no, KRplus, I will not click on a non-BDG video after this one, because I don't want to interrupt the vibe being created here and nothing else will be this good"
I tried to reach for you but the hook makes it hard is one of the best lines in parody music history
By far the most unexpected place to find you. Even weirder, why hasnt anyone replied to this in a whole year?
Captain Hook giving orders to the crew to sing while he's breaking down crying is both funny and sad.
“I’m getting too worked up, gimme a pipe flute!” Is a line that’ll go down in history lmao
I unironically love how this has nothing to do with halloween and/or horror
there is no way this would be complete without the pipe solo
fun fact: this was the first time I ever heard the song SOS, so this is just the default version to me now, and every time I try to sing the song I end up singing it in 6/8
can't wait for these to be on spotify and make up the top spots on my wrapped
Jonah as Smee is just perfect!!! This cover is absolutely amazing
ACCORDION in an ABBA COVER I am LIVING I am BREATHING this is so good.
Edit: It’s a hurdy gurdy I was blinded by my pure excitement of hearing something vaguely accordion like in a song and forgot that Brian in fact owns a hurdy gurdy so it makes a lot more sense that that’s what’s in the song. Plus now on a second listen it sounds like that’s definitely what it is.
Pretty sure that's a hurdy gurdy. It's splendid nonetheless.
@@BiggusNickus yeh you are right it is!
I think my favourite thing about this is that Hook just sounds like he has the WORST cold and this is the primary reason he isn't plunging his eponymous prosthetic into random pirates just to remind them who he is.
My favorite little detail in this one is the very enthusiastic, completely unwarranted “woo!” at the beginning of the pipe solo.
It's very impressive how he sings this entire song without moving his lips
I love the implication that he doesn’t know what happened to his hand
I have no idea where the idea for 6/8 came in, but it's perfect.
the level of voice acting on this one always gets me
"The tick tock on the clock in the croc" is way too good for it's own good
"Me crew, I'er have a sneaking suspicion that someone in in 'ere is a traitor"
"What do you mean capitain"
"They tore the sails up and kill jimmy in cold blood"
"That can't be"
"Someone here 'ight be sosiopatic ye see, a bit sos"
there be an imposter among us
@@alexdavis665 you got the joke, my man
When you put out lay all our blood on me I thought it was a funny gimmick... I was clearly wrong about your commitment to the villains of ABBA songs.
"Very good, Mr. Smee."
"Thank you, sir."
Omg I love ahhba! My other favorite band is ghoulrillaz with the hit single, I can't feel anything inc.
Edit: I found them on Spotify and played them all shift. Thank you for giving me a my weekends work playlist!
Is this going to be available on Spotify? I would force all customers to listen on repeat as I work in a pipe shop and we Bluetooth our own selections during shifts. I need as many people to hear these with me as possible.
it says in the bio it's coming to spotify soon!!! so excited hehe
I got it on Spotify but u need to scroll a bit!
Found it! I may have to eventually add a few more songs to the playlist, but I think at least 3 hours of the album by itself is in order first.

"I try to reach for you, but the hook makes it hard"
hook singing about his lost hand: "the love you gave me, nothing else can save me"
kinda sussy
I KNEW the hurdy gurdy was going to be used for something! You've been dropping hints THIS WHOLE TIME
If no one makes an OFMD animatic of this within the time between now and the next episode of OFMD i will riot /j
I have been saying this for MONTHS!!! If only I was an artist.... I might make an edit after season 2 completes, so that I have more material to work with
Oh thank god this is a series!
Well after seeing this brilliance, the only reasonable progression is an entire album of ABBA sea shanties
SWABBA
The Bootstrap Bill voice at the beginning really makes it *chef's kiss*
I'm coming back to this 2 months later because it's still an absolute banger.
Oh my god this is incredible hook
¡Dale!
Yes, Brian is.
see, i heard this song before i heard the original, so now this is what it refer to as the original. it just works so well in 6/8 rather than 4/4 like the abba version
THE TIME SIGNATURE SELLS IT SO MUCH, THIS IS SO CLEVER
The visuals for these videos make me want to play a Myst-style adventure game with Brian playing every character
I like how hook is on the verge of tears and his crew is just vibing
So he's singing about his right hand like it's a long-lost lover, I'll see myself out.
'That damn tick tock on the clock in the croc that I hear.' Absolutely brilliant.
I like to think the pipe solo is from Peter Pan in a fake mustache
these are all BEAUTIFUL. this is all i will be listening to for the next week
I love how he didn't just switch up the words, he made it a sea shanty
yo bdg your tallent for surprising, confusing and delighting ppl, all while keeping us truly afraid in unearthly
i fricken love this random AAAH!BBA cover thing its so good
