I hadn't thought about this recording in a while, but it started playing while I was working today.
I am fascinated by songs that sound really cheery while covering really sad or unpleasant topics. And this is a perfect example. Listen to the happy vocals and harmonies, all in service or retelling the story of the Titanic. I particularly like the understatement of the line, "it was sad when that great ship went down."
Enjoy!
