Keith Houchen Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 I’m a sea shanty hipster. Tiktok is for Johnny Come Latelys. Assassins Creed Black Flag is for the REAL fans.

Being a grumpy, coming up for middle aged man, what's the big selling point of Tik Tok? Is it just bellends lip synching things and it's supposed to be funny? Or is there more to it than that?

I asked the young folk in work if tiktok was a bit like Vine and they hadn't a bulls notion what Vine was. At least I didn't ask if it was like Tout I suppose.

I've borrowed a few twists from that, Cara Dillon's, and Shaun Davey's (the one in the Waking Ned soundtrack) to add to my own when gigging.

On sea shanty chat, there was a superb compilation album called Rogue's Gallery years back that featured Lou Reed doing this track, as well as contributions from Nick Cave, Bryan Ferry, Eliza Carthy, Loudon Wainwright III, Jarvis Cocker and so on. Unfortunately it's got Sting and Bono on it, but they can't all be hits.
