I was driving to pick up Vietnamese from a little place just around the corner from us and I was listening to 88.5 Live FM and a song was playing in which I heard:

“I’s the b’y that built the boat
I’s the b’y that sailed her
I’s the b’y the sunk the ship
You’re the one that save me“

The first two lines of that are taken from a very old Newfoundland song and it blew my mind when I heard it on the radio.  I had to look up.

I haven’t been able to find too much in the way of actual facts, but the song is by Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker and they are indeed Canadian, but not from Newfoundland.  Which just adds to the mystery.

I’m hypnotized by the song now, and I think their T-Shirt looks pretty cool.
