plasticmaster Posted July 22, 2019 Report Share Posted July 22, 2019 I just got off Harmony yesterday after a 7 night cruise. It was wonderful. Anyhow, I noticed all week that nice peaceful music was almost always being played over the ships speakers. However, during debarkation, I noticed that Metallica's "Enter Sandman" was being blasted in the Royal Promenade as we were leaving the ship. I'm not complaining as I like many genres of music including hard rock/ heavy metal. However, I'm wondering why such a stark contrast in music as we're leaving the ship? Is it to wake people up and make them hurry off the ship? ellcee, RickinSTL and SpeedNoodles 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monctonguy Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 Interesting..... I have never really noticed or paid attention to that...but now you have me curious. I wonder if it was a one off or this is something they do all the time or on other ships as well.... Great tune for the record....might make me want to stick around a little longer too..lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellcee Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 I think at first it would confuse me and then I'd start laughing which is a great way to end a cruise. Also what @JohnK6404 says and I think of Mariano and how I miss that Yankee lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
