Tim Buckley and Larry Beckett’s legendary Song To The Siren is a powerful ballad that means many things to many people.
The ancient image of the Siren has enchanted seafaring history for centuries. Inspired by Homer’s Odyssey – the song tells the story of the Sirens who lure unwitting sailors to their deaths on the rocks.
Suzy Starlite and Simon Campbell understand and respect the deep call of the water – be it river, sea or ocean.
Simon has led many expeditions as a National Instructor and First-Class Diver of the British Sub Aqua Club. His adventures to the Falkland Islands and St. Kilda earned him the honour of being made a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, bestowed on curious explorers such as Livingstone, Stanley, Scott, Shackleton, Hunt, and Hillary.
Song To The Siren has a personal connection to Suzy who lost a childhood friend when she drowned off the coast of Bude in Cornwall.
Song To The Siren is a song of love, hope and loss.
In search of an authentic rendition, Suzy reinstated the original lyrics “I am puzzled as the oyster.”
After all, who hasn’t met an oyster that wasn’t puzzled?
