Default Help Me Make A Playlist About The Sea
I'm hoping CP can crowd source and help me make a playlist for an upcoming project. I am looking for indie/alt songs about the sea/ocean/nautical/maritime themes. Bonus points for 80s and 90s songs and Canadian artists.

So far I have:

Captain Highliner ad (1979) - Ever Been To Sea Billy?
XTC - All You Pretty Girls
Ween - The Mollusk
Tragically Hip - Nautical Disaster
Waterboys - Fisherman's Blues
Modest Mouse - Ocean Breathes Salty
Elvis Costello - Shipbuilding
Pogues - Thousands Are Sailing
Rheostatics - Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald
Cure - From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea
Echo & The Bunnymen - Seven Seas
Split Enz - Six Months In A Leaky Boat
Pixies - Wave Of Mutilation
Nick Cave - The Ship Song
Husker Du - Standing By The Sea
New Pornographers - Myriad Harbour
Blondie - The Tide Is High
Jimi Hendrix - Drifting
Yes - The Fish (Schindleria praematurus)
World Party - Ship Of Fools




Iron Maiden - Rime Of The Ancient Mariner (13:34 minutes! might be too long)

It's an okay cover I guess, but... come on.

Anyway, if you do this and don't include The Mary Ellen Carter by Stan Rogers, I'm coming to take away your passport.
