| Mar 6 at 18:25 | comment | added | Mermaker | If my Helldivers 2 group is any indication of anything, people would sing sea chanties while killing hordes of space bugs and alien automatons. | |

| Apr 7, 2021 at 10:38 | comment | added | Crazy Dino | I'm surprised no-one has mentioned this existing space shanty 'classic'' by 'The Firm' youtube.com/watch?v=FCARADb9asE | |
| Apr 7, 2021 at 7:47 | comment | added | Ponder Stibbons | On a slightly different slant - but it seems to me for this to function (other than as entertainment) it is important that the technology has been fairly stable for a while so that unchanging roles and duties have been established. | |

| Apr 6, 2021 at 18:00 | comment | added | Joe Bloggs | Sometimes the amount of convergent worldbuilding that happens is scary... I tackled this exact same problem a few months back. | |
| Apr 6, 2021 at 17:12 | comment | added | user8827 | I served from 2000 to 2008 on US submarines. Guys, there was no internet down there. Sometimes we just - sang. Shanties, showtunes, the national anthem, top 40, something some dude wrote - whatever. | |

| Apr 6, 2021 at 13:47 | comment | added | DWKraus | I think the sheer FUN everyone is having with making up ditties is an answer in and of itself. Very fun question. | |
| Apr 6, 2021 at 13:27 | comment | added | Darrel Hoffman | Sea shanties made a comeback last year on Tik Tok. Those people weren't working together or even in the same room (or country in some cases), and it still managed to be a thing... | |

| Apr 6, 2021 at 13:22 | comment | added | Qami | Leave her, Ripley, leave her / Oh leave her, Ripley, leave her / For the thing that hatched prowls the Nostromo / and it's time for us to leave her. | |
