I realize there are more songs that have an "underwater" feel to them (echoes by pink floyd for example) but im trying to decide which of these two songs do it more accuratly. Personally I'm undecided, thats why i started this thread.

P.S. In case your wondering TFTO means tales from topographic oceans.

Anyone know anybody who has given birth underwater? For some reason, I find that method quite fascinating.

Expecting something James? a little progger on the way perhaps.

Don't know anyone, but I think it's a nice way to give birth. For the mother in question I think it's more comforting, and the baby is used to live in an aquatic envirement anyway. If it takes very long the Mother might get all wrinkly though.

My friends wife has given birth underwater twice now. She loves the whole pregnancy thing - what you might call a 'natural' mother. She favours the home birthing pool, candle light, ambient music etc. Sounds pretty good to me!

She swears by it and claims to feel no pain...erm. Even though I'm a man I cant imagine completly painless childbirth. Is there such a thing??

She has now got twins on the way. My friends hair is going grey fast..

'Sploosh' by the Ozrics gets my vote here..
Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

Gotta be Sploosh, but for real sub aquatic action, try Edgar Froese's Aqua, or side one of Raindow Dome Music by Steve Hillage - empty your bladder first, or you'll be legging it to the bathroom after the first 90 seconds of either of them.

Another Yuppie fetish that seems more about keeping up with the Joneses than about spiritual experiences.Confused

You know, Echoes is better than both... Anway, Nirvana's Come as You Are is really good at it, too.

how could you forget DELOUSED IN THE COMATORIUM by the mars volta? the whole middle section of cicatriz esp uses guitar effects that have an underwater feel as in the story it matches the artwork in the book which has lots of underwaterness, eg the bridge, the train track and the squidman ascending. they also have many allusions to this centrepiece of the album in parts of the other tracks by making sounds like going underwater...

also... MEDDLE by pink floyd. the album artwork is full of water ripples. stuff like san tropez and one of these days and a pillow of winds has underwatery sounds of waves etc. but echoes has sounds of submarines and very underwatery sounds throughout!

LOL, what about the bubble-blowing on "In the Land of Grey and Pink"?
