I always love a song which tells a story, while cooking tea tonight with my iPod on shuffle these two completely different tracks played, both are great. I played the ABBA track three times singing along.
What story telling track do you like.

The Mariner's Revenge Song by The Decemberists. Dark and funny.

Has to be The Hangman and The Papist, epic Strawbs song with some nifty organ from Rick Wakeman. If you follow the link to the Youtube page the lyrics are there too.

Going live tonight(tomorrow) I've got a kind of ELO storytelling song. Cleaning out my old tape box and sending it out to the world. More to follow (in six hours 😉) Hope everyone enjoys. Cheers

Up The Junction by Squeeze is a kitchen sink drama in 3 minutes, absolutely brilliant.
"I never thought it would happen, with me and the girl from Clapham...."

Love that Los Lobos song. Great album, too. They're one of the great American bands who tend to get overlooked.
