That song, not to speak of the real story itself, has always been way too long and just too damned depressing...so, here's the musician who actually 'fixed' the song. |

"Ballad of the Yarmouth Castle" about a cruise ship that burned is even more intense than The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. It is on the Sunday concert album. Thor; your songs of the sea are good ones and I remember all of them. I will add Southern Cross by Crosby, Stills, and Nash.

Songs that told stories of the sea were popular there for awhile. My favorites: Sloop John B by the Beach Boys A Salty Dog by Procol Harum Ride, Captain, Ride by the Blues Image I'm Your Captain by Grand Funk Brandy by Looking Glass |

DYING HERE.... "they were 4 men with Twix complexions..." That will be the only lyrics going through my mind from this point on. |

Hence the birth of the next batch of Donathangs. Speaking of - With a little tweaking, the lyrics to the Brady Bunch theme tell the story quite nicely Here's the story of a crazy lady Who was making up three very lovely girls. All of them had hair of gold, like their mother, With haunting, chilling curls. Here's the story, of a man named Donathan, Who was busy making up three boys of his own, They were four men, with Twix complexions, Yet they were all alone. Till the one day when the lady met this fellow And they knew it was much more than a hunch, That this group must somehow be the same person. That's the way they all became the Donathan Bunch. |

I guess when the cocktail of drugs gets messed up, old donathang has no idea WHO the heck he/she is. |

^^ One thing about the epic saga that's Donathan and Co. is that there have been a few good threads among the more egregious ones. Case in point - the Random Things thread. Look how long that one's gone on and still ticking strong. Of course for every good one there are 3 or 4 about Stinky farts or Boss crushes |

I actually kinda like the subject of this thread. Kinda broad, maybe, but I've lamented before how songs don't seem to really tell actual stories anymore. |

^^ I read that and immediately pictured a snippet from Sam Neill at the end of In the Mouth of Madness, delivered almost word for word

If I so much as dipped my finger in the holy water on my way into Church, my skin would probably start smoking. And yeah, I'd have to do my confession in sessions. But as soon as I begin muttering "Bless Me Father" I'd already be ex-communicated! |

If I were to ever go to confession, it'd take so long to get through it all the priest would die of old age before I got done. And that's only if he didn't die from shock first. Wait, my son. You did WHAT?? .... *thud* "Yes well it was a really wild night already, and then we started drinking shots of .... Father? Hello?" |
