about

On the chill night of April 14th 1912 that beautiful, fine flanked, haughty ship sank beneath the Atlantic waves with a sort of noble Edwardian grace, dipping like a swan into the body of history. At least that's the image that's been handed down to us over the decades. In truth of course, beneath her sooty black skin her insides must have been ripping and deforming with unimaginable violence and that desperate last hour must have been utterly terrifying. To calm the passengers as they gathered on deck the musicians of Titanic assembled on those steepening planks and played on until the waters closed... We will never know for sure if their last piece was 'Nearer My God' or ' Dream Of Autumn'; it makes no difference really for they must have played both pieces that night. Legends decorate the truth like a wedding cake but what we know for an absolute certain fact is that none of those musicians survived the sinking.

This song is for them.
