Thread Name: Origins: The Fairfield Crane/Shipyard Apprentice
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: River Clyde
I like to sing the "Shipyard Apprentice", and as it ends on an unresolved note, tail it off with the first verse and chorus of "Song of the Clyde".

I like the way that the fairly hard edge to Archie Fisher's song makes the second one much softer and more wistful. Also, while people don't tend to sing along with the Shipyard Apprentice, they really like to join in with Song of the Clyde.

Cheers

Steven
