Mar. 10th, 2016 10:02 pmNew song I need to learn on autoharp: Toad the Wet Sprocket's "Walk On The Ocean."
I know the lyricist has said that the verses are loosely based on an actual vacation trip he'd taken to an island and that the chorus is just stream-of-consciousness nonsense riffing off the imagery in the first verse, but I'm pretty sure I can sing it in a manner that makes it clear that (in my reading, at least) it's absolutely about an encounter with the naiads, nereids, and dryads.
And I'm about 99% sure said encounter involved sex.
