Titanic (It Was Sad When That Great Ship Went Down)

Seeing as you can't avoid the endless TV programs marking the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, I don't see why you should avoid it on the Nation.

So, here's the old folk tune played on my new black and gold Rocky Patel 4 string cigar box guitar. It's tuned D G B E.

You might want to turn your sound down a little, to avoid being deafened by my ridiculously loud voice. You're lucky I didn't bash out a version of that horrible Celine Dion song.

Thanks, Thorsten. I like to ring the changes as much as possible. Same guitar though.

Great performance, and so different to your TVZ-cover that I love so much.

Mr Toad, are you threatening me? I warn you, I don't respond well to threats. Just watch your step, or there'll be an mp3 of My Heart Will Go On  turning up in your inbox. I'm just crazy enough to do it!

Way to belt it out Vinylhed....everyone would be in pain if you dared bash out the celine dion version...including you!!
