"Ocean-y" Songs, I guess http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/nano-soundtracks/threads/47945 Thanatophobia I need some O.O Half of my characters have /something/ to do with the ocean (fisherman, sea gods, shape-shifters...) Anyway, I only have a couple of songs. ("Into the Ocean" by Andy McKee, "Morning Waltz" by Jesse Chui and "A Great Divide" by Dustin O'Halloran) Post anything that sounds like it could have something to do with the ocean/water, please! If it has lyrics, they don't necessarily need to be about water or the ocean--it just needs to sound "ocean-y".

I like the Real McKenzie's version. If you like folk, I've always liked "My Johnny was a Shoe-maker" (he joins the navy) There are plenty of shanties out there, like "What do you do with a Drunken Sailor?" I suggest searching it on YouTube, there will be links to others on the side Plus, if you like Irish Rock, the Dropkick Murphy's do a few, like Shipping Up to Boston If you like alternative: Ludo does one called Rotten Town about a former sailor.
