It was sad when that great ship went down (Revised 2014 Lyrics)- Trad.Arr P.M.Adamson

A.K.A. Oh they built the ship Titanic
Following a comment by Mr.D.Barch regarding the line "They put the lifeboats out on the raging stormy seas" in the song 'Oh they built the ship Titanic' I decided to re-record the song with a new line adding 'Clear and Glassy seas' There has also been a dispute about the playing of 'Nearer My God To Thee' which is legendary without any real proof, although it would appear a Hymn was played which was commensurate with Wallace Hartley's (The bandleaders) background. The USA and English versions of that Hymn are quite different and yet it was reported by survivors from both sides of the Atlantic which throws questions about what was actually played. In this revised version I have just put a Hymn was played, led by Wallace Hartley. I have decided to leave the original version and Lyric version on youtube, although I do agree with hindsight that it was a bad line and thank Mr.D.Barch for pointing it out and hope the new version is acceptable to purists.In the final analysis, surely fact is more important and records do suggest it was not a raging sea.This recording is completely new as opposed to dubbed lyrics and the slide show is also all new. Hope you like it and thanks for watching.
