Throwback Thursday is a weekly meme created by Renee @ It’s Book Talk. This meme is an awesome way to share old favorites that were published over a year ago or even books that you’re finally reading after much time has passed. I have plenty of those to share!

I just finished reading Broken Music by Sting and I’ll share my review later for that. I’ve been a Police fan since I was a young child and Sting is still a favorite artist today. Here are two favorites that go way back to my childhood, back to when sitting in front of MTV was all I wanted to do. Not only are these favorite songs, but favorite music videos as well.

This Week’s Pick
Sting
“I Saw Three Ships”
I fell in love with this song the moment I heard it. My daughter’s dance teacher used it for one of the group’s Christmas ballet performances and I was amazed! The album version is considerably slower and not as busy, but this version here is even more special because of the plethora of instruments. It’s like a huge jam session. I hope you enjoy it.
LYRICS
I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas day, on Christmas day I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas day in the morning.
And what was in those ships all three? On Christmas day, on Christmas day And what was in those ships all three? On Christmas day in the morning.
Our Saviour, Christ, and His Lady On Christmas day, on Christmas day Our Saviour, Christ, and His Lady On Christmas day in the morning.
Pray, whither sailed those ships all three? On Christmas day, on Christmas day Pray, whither sailed those ships all three? On Christmas day in the morning.
O, they sailed to Bethlehem On Christmas day, on Christmas day O, they sailed to Bethlehem On Christmas day in the morning.
And all the bells on earth shall ring On Christmas day, on Christmas day And all the bells on earth shall ring On Christmas day in the morning.
And all the angels in heaven shall sing On Christmas day, on Christmas day And all the angels in heaven shall sing On Christmas day in the morning.
And all the souls on earth shall sing On Christmas day, on Christmas day And all the souls on earth shall sing On Christmas day in the morning.
Then let us all rejoice and sing On Christmas day, on Christmas day Then let us all rejoice and sing On Christmas day in the morning.
