Watch the Maine National Guard Sing Sea Shanties
The first big viral trend of 2021 is....SEA SHANTIES. I told you 2021 was going to be a weird one. It all started on TikTok. Did you know, people spent more time on TikTok in 2020 than on Facebook? True fact. And for some reason, Sea Shanties are the hot new (or wicked old) thing.

At first pass, shanties seem kinda old fashioned, but when you listen to a few they are damn catchy! I've had a few stuck in my head all week. And you got to figure that here in Maine that could hear a sea shanty just walking down the street on the waterfront somewhere.
