| Great Big Sea – Demasduit Dream Lyrics

Gwerith, Demasduit's story is similar to that of Pocahontas except much more tragic as she was one of the last Beothuk people of Newfoundland. Contact with British colonists resulted in their extinction due to disease and murder. When Demasduit died in 1820 there were only 31 known surviving Boethuk, Demasduit's niece being the last to die in 1829. |

I was rather surprised that this song wasn't here already. For me it was one of those nontraditional Christmas songs like The Royal Guardsmen's "Snoopy's Christmas" or Brian Adams' "Something About Christmas" and later Tom Petty's "Christmas All Over Again" that are refreshing to hear on the radio after listening to 14 remakes of "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" and "Jingle Bell Rock". |

I went to the 5 Days In July tour back in '93 where Greg Keelor performed this song and forgot the lyrics right after the line "That I still feel like I'm half asleep". He told the band to stop, went and sat on the set couch and had a cigarette, never saying a word. After about 3 or 4 long drags he got up and performed the whole song without a problem. |
