I had a locket, a little silver charm,
Given to me so to keep me out of harm.
Canvasing the quayside trying to earn my keep,
A killick tore it off my neck and threw it in the deep.

    I thought it was a bit pretentious at first, but I now think its ace. Thank goodness my housemate has most of their discography

    Did 5 Fiery Furnaces songs happen to come on in order or has this all been one song? Yep, 1 song.

    "too long and boring" - thats what your mom said las- wait, that insult doesn't work at all. Whatever, you're still wrong.

    I'm almost certain that they sped up or pitch shifted Eleanor's voice with some sort of electronics in that first part, it's definately higher than her normal register. One of the more succesful long multi-part songs on the album anyway, along with the title track and Chief Inspector Blancheflower.
