Jim,

I can confirm that this is the same song (though as you suggest the link is from Cooper's Reel), melody is slightly different but it is definitely the same song.

Doesn't help anyone not from The Northern Isles with the lyrics though!

You found a lot of the things we found with your other links.... did you check the names of those who died in the disaster? At least some from 3 generations of a couple of families. Terrible.

Thanks for looking!

Paul
