What Is the Best Water-Related Song?

VOTE for what you think is the best song related to water, rivers, lakes -- you know, what we here at the Catawba Riverkeeper are trying to protect!

What Is the Best Water-Related Song?

Traveling the Catawba basin -- and there's a lot to travel -- we've wondered what would be good water- and river-related songs to listen to while driving or perhaps during get-togethers.

We did a preliminary solicitation for nominations, and now, based on those, we're putting it to a vote. Use whatever criteria you will -- music, lyrics, message, relevance -- any and everything.

There are 10, diverse finalists; no one should feel like a genre was left out with THIS list!  You may choose THREE.  There are YouTube links to listen to anything unfamiliar.  Who knows?  Maybe you'll find a new favorite.

We'll continue the poll for ONE WEEK and then announce the winner!

 

What is the best water-related song? Select up to THREE.
