    The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot. A jaunty little sea shanty about a ship sinking in a storm and killing everyone on board.

      I sang that two nights ago, at our local open mic. Went over very well, but then again the average age was probably over 70.

      It’s a banger though, as long as everyone in the bar is over 35.

          I remember the first time my then-girlfriend, who was American, heard God Save the Queen while here in the UK. It was an instrumental version and she had no idea why they were playing My Country 'tis of Thee in a situation where you would expect a national anthem

            Even our “anthem” is a white supremacist poem slapped on top of an old British drinking song. How apt. A country of drunken racists.

    Or anything from an obscure screamo band.

    The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. It’s a Debbie Downer of a song, it lasts forever, and it gets really repetitive.

      I would be so hyped that someone is playing The Mountain Goats in public I would probably join in.

      Depends on the crowd. I did this song once because I was just so excited to see it (any Mountain Goats, really) available.

      The crowd absolutely loved it. People at the front row singing along, having a great time. A guy thanked me after. Surreal. Like a “then everybody clapped” moment.

      Must have been a bunch of Moral Orel fans, I guess? Or, I suppose after people butchering Bohemian Rhapsody all night, this was the palate cleanser. Who knows.

    Right now, as someone not from the US, star spangled banned would ruin the evening more than anything else I could think of. Everyone can recognize it, arguments would follow.
