Captain of Your Ship

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Captain of Your Ship is the title of a pop song first recorded by the girl group Reparata and the Delrons and released as a single in 1968. The song is unusual in its atmospheric use of sound effects (foghorn, ship's bell, Morse code) and features psychedelic instrumentation and treatments including electric sitar, backwards piano, filtered vocals and phasing. The song made the UK top 20 but failed to chart in the USA.

Betty Boo later sampled the electric sitar hook for her 1990s hit "Where Are You Baby?"
