Since today marks the 7 year of the end of hell of the poor Concordia, I’ve made this using all the song with some parts related to the disaster.
On July 7th, 2017 the saga of the unlucky ship Costa Concordia ended. After it was refloated in July 2014, the Concordia reached the port of Genoa on 27 July of the same year to be scrapped. The operations of dismantling ended after 3 years. Of the Concordia only sad memories remains.
This incident had an huge impact especially in the music. The indie rock band Car Seat Headrest pays homage to the disaster with the song The Ballad of the Costa Concordia, included in the new album Teens of Denial, released in May 2016.
The backstory of this incredible tribute is that Will Toledo informed himself of the disaster and he was shocked and felt ache. The pain scale that he felt, has forced him to put it in the song becoming a slow ballad.
This song will always be the most important tribute to this incident.
