Interesting that the song was published in 1982, the year I entered the U.S. Navy, later to become a Submariner myself, as others in the thread know. Nice to hear tribute songs like this about "boats" lost at sea. Thanks!

Oh… I see now… okay. Thanks!

A high school friend entered in ‘84, also on submarines. He sent me an awesome sweatshirt about empty missile tubes… I wore it out.

We got our haircuts between 4 missile tubes while underway. The outer walkways around the missile compartment also served as our track for those who liked to run.

I have total respect for your ability to do that, and for your time in the service.

Thank you for your service. I was unaware of your history, but you may be interested in a little more of the backstory on this song then.

It was in honor of Dolby's uncle who perished in WWII aboard a submarine. This song is the story of that battle as he remembered the family lore. There's a Wikipedia page on the song. Found it during a deep dive late one night on "Blinded me with science". Amazed I remembered this was the B-side for the single.

I read up on it. The lyrics don't match the actual event of it's sinking, but he didn't learn that until years later when records were declassified.

Guess it's a case of the thought that counts?

sorry for the rabbit hole... the way Eddie Izzard says "manoeuvre" @ the 1 min mark in this bit is forever stuck in my ear

Clue is Circus and Britney's song is used in the new Hazbin Hotel series

Given the circus context, I’m going to assume you meant “ringmaster” and therefore I submit “circus boss” as a synonym.

Big Top

I was going to post that song for the "tent" clue, using @BrendaD logic to go from tent to big top to circus. I wasn't quick enough.

Yep - was aiming for Ring Master

I feel very seen - I am often just seconds from posting when someone else gets there first.

Fair Warning - this is an ...interesting video for a country song
