I skipped Talk Like A Pirate Day last year, but this year I am celebrating with my wee Pirate-y Playlist (this does not include One Piece stuff, because I'm too lazy to post all of that, or even the album covers for the ones I put up) (lazy lazy lazy).*

*Okay, so Shanty for the Arethusa isn't about pirates, but I imagine pirates sang shanties, so there you are.

01.  The Decemberists - Shanty for the Arethusa  (lyrics)
02.  The Decemberists - The Mariner's Revenge Song  (lyrics)
03.  David Byrne - Pirates  (lyrics; it's #10, scroll down)
04.  Klaus Bedalt - He's A Pirate  [from Pirates of the Caribbean]  (no lyrics!)
05.  Gilbert and Sullivan - I Am A Pirate King  [from Pirates of Penzance]  (lyrics)
06.  LazyTown - You Are A Pirate!  (lyrics, and a video!)
07.  Adam and the Ants - Jolly Roger (not hosted on Vox; lyrics)

Weird that three of those are randomly proclaiming people (self, others) to be pirates.  Does this sort of thing go unnoticed unless pointed out?

Don't forget Yo Ho by Snuff (not posted by me) and Captain Hampton and the Midget Pirates by the Aquabats (which I am also too lazy to post, but here's a One Piece video set to it, and you can't fucking lose with One Piece), AND!  And and and this AskMeFi post for any musical pirating needs I have not already addressed.

Whew.

Oh, and:  ARRRRR.
