I am searching for the name and artists of a song about Atlantas. It starts with a voice-over (a very british voice) talking about the 12 from anti-deluvian (SPELLING) times. Then it goes into the song about Atlantis under the sea. I know that is not much to go on, but I’ve seen dopers Identify songs on less. Thanks to all who respond.
Atlantis, by Donovan.
Yes Grendel, that is it! And so quickly done as well! I am impressed.
Thanks.
“The continent of Atlantis was an island, which lay before the great flood. . .”
One of my favorite songs when I was, like, 9 years old, and I’ve never forgotten it!! (One of my older sisters was a big Donovan fan, so I got lots of exposure to his stuff).
OR you could be thinking of the song by the rapper Jermaine Dupris…
“Welcome to Atlantis where the players play…”
Or…wait…nevermind.
I’m less bitter about being beaten to the punch by Splanky because s/he told it much more effectively than I would have.
[nitpick]except that it’s Jermaine Dupri, not Dupris…[/nitpick]
