Thread Name: Songs relating to the Titanic
Subject: ADD: Fine Fine Fine (Titanic Song)-Mitchell, et al
Here's an interesting one. A song by celebrated poet Adrian Mitchell(and others) for a theatre show: "Raise the Titanic" by Welfare State Internatonal, staged in Limehouse Basin in London in 1983. Like many theatre pieces it was unpublished and unrecorded. We are using it in another Titanic show for the centenary in a week's time, and it will get recorded.

FINE FINE FINE(TITANIC SONG)
Words Adrian Mitchell   Music Luk Mishalle, Pete Moser


She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line
She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line

She weigh                        sixty six sixty six thousand tons
She weigh                        sixty six   sixty six thousand tons
She got                        fifty thousand    horsepower
She got                         fifty thousand    horsepower

She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line
She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line

She make                        twentyfour, twenty five knots an hour
She make                        twentyfour, twenty five knots an hour
And she's shoving black smoke at the overhead sun x4
                
She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line
She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line

She got         Sixty foot funnels
                Three million rivets
Everything the human race could afford x4
And
She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line
She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line

She got        Two thousand two hundred and seven people on board
                Two thousand two hundred and seven people on board
                Two thousand two hundred and seven people on board
                Two thousand two hundred and seven people on board

Wondership speeding to the meeting place
There stood an iceberg with a grin on its face
It opened the Titanic like a sardine tin
The people fell out and the water rushed in
And
She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line
She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line
She's Fine Fine Fine, they call her the Titanic of the White Star Line
She's Fine Fine Fine, the call her the Titanic of the White Star Line

She's Fine..........
