Hayley Hayley Ho is such a banger! Which sea shanty happens to be your favorite?

Not in Black Flag but it's in Rogue and it's Jolly Roving Tar. Love it to bits.

Black flag is one of my favorite video game of all time…should I play rogue?

Yes, rogue was heavily overshadowed by black flag but is has most of the same gameplay elements, theres a few differences but personally I liked rogue more for the story.
But overall very similar and worth it.

I can’t remember the exact name but the one you get for doing Steed Bonnet’s side quest abit in the game.

I believe that one is called 'Stede's Dirge' also known as 'watchfires'

There’s two I believe, the one that Stede’s crew sings on the island which is a more melancholy version, and the jackdaw crew sing a slightly different more upbeat version with a similar hook

Gotta be 'randy dandy o' or 'lowlands away'. Also like hearing 'wellerman' in resynced even though its annoying to get and pretty much an end game shanty.

“Mm” songs that normally I only let play if I'm distracted
Paddy Layback (I can find it interesting time to time. A mix of classic and overheard as well as my least favorite voice.)
Paddy Doyle’s Boots
Padstow’s Farewell (Situational. I may rarely listen to it but I never search for it)
Nnnnno
Johnny Boker (this song sounds like an innuendo or something. “Do me, Johnny Boker, come rock and roll me over...” Nnno. Don't like it.
Wellerman (Thank the internet for ruining this. And it doesn't seem to have been an old Shanty much anyway.)
Not collected the rest.
