23 Jul 08 - 03:55 AM (#2395727) Subject: Sea Shanties on the Today show today From: Anne Lister Did anyone else catch the feature about the stage show based on Johnny Depp's pirate project and sea shanties? As well as hearing some folkies performing sea shanties there was also the novelty value of hearing Bono, Lou Reed and Shane McGowan, as well as assorted others not normally associated with traditional music.

25 Jul 08 - 06:52 AM (#2397470) Subject: RE: Sea shanties on BBC radio 4 / Today Show From: GUEST,Diva I must confess my first thought was fuck off and leave our music alone.......I know. I know I'm getting more tolerant as I get older!!!!! However one of my pet theories is that all these rock star types really want to sing ballads and trad songs (its a lovely place where I live..in my noddle) I thought it was a joke.....and the best bit was Rachel Untahnks comment ..good on you hen. However I am willing to tutor Johnny Depp in the ways of trad song......... |
