Where was Marian calling from?

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

Reports differed as to the Titanic's last song. Mrs. A. A. Dick claimed she saw the band lined up on deck playing "Nearer My God, to Thee." Another passenger said they were playing "Autumn," an Episcopalian hymn. This image of the brave orchestra playing until the end fired the public's imagination, which had an insatiable appetite for eye-witness accounts of the final moments of the Titanic.

Joseph Conrad, a writer of that period, dismissed the controversy over the last song as sentimental fluff. He called it "music to get drowned by." "It would have been finer if the band of the Titanic had been quietly saved," he stated, "instead of being drowned while playing-whatever the tune they were playing, poor devils."
