I thought this was an older song somehow. My sister-in-law sang
Whispering Hope at my dad's memorial service years ago. I always
connect the two ever since. Beautiful song, though.

According to Jo Firey's post, it was written in 1868. That is 137 years
ago....quite a long time. MLB

The news from down south started this song going around in my head

and are using it as practically a theme song for the disaster.


In Canada we have a band who are very popular here but almost

unknown
outside the country called the Tragically Hip, and DP has been

trying
NOT to sing the following TH song ever since hearing about

Katrina...

"My memory is muddy, what's this river that I'm in?
New Orleans is sinkin', man, and I don't wanna swim."

Good ol' Hip. I'll never understand why they never caught on in the
US.
