Ooops, didn't realize it was supposed to be part of the title. But the river is such a big part of the song.

Also, not in the title. But it's about a very treacherous body of water.

Rivers:

Up A Lazy River/ Louis Prima

Moon River/ Audrey Hepburn

Red River Rock/ Johnny & The Hurricanes

Rob....you got that right...about Lake Superior being treacherous! Also, as you know,

the story in the song is based on a true one! Terrible day in History.

“Terrible day in History.”

Uptown Gal, I recently watched an animated version of the sinking. It really stuck with me.

To think about all those men, just so quickly gone (and still there) does a number

on me no matter how many times I hear the song, or read something about the

wreck. That is the only Great Lake that terrifies me. Just cold and bleak to me.

Right! This was the animation I watched of the sinking. Just eery and awful.

"Creek"

Julie London

"Cry Me a River" from the movie "The Girl Can't Help It" with Jayne Mansfield.

Jayne Mansfield and Julie London were two of my role models as a small child.

River Deep, Mountain High

The Animals (1968) This is my favorite version

Ike & Tina Turner - love this version also.
