I really loved Henry in the story.

This song adds to the fact that Henry was my favorite character of the third mates. The story and character development from the first episode to the last was top tier and this song captures it all.

wow thank you! henry absolutely had a mysterious and tragic backstory and it was amazing to listen to him grow and find peace over the course of the pod. so glad i captured that for you!

The way this already Jam of a song repeats the chorus a little different each time just like his lives, is beautiful.

Lyrics (note that a few quotes come directly from Brian Murphy and Jake Hurwitz of NADDPod): [Leonora] The story of a man sunken deep in the throes. The life of Ill Luck Henry, though it’s not the one he knows. It isn’t so unlike the life he’s lived to date. Never climbing higher than the rank of Third Mate. Too low to garner respect. Too high not to garner resent. Ill Luck Henry finds a friend, This might not be the end. She trusts him with a secret, he guards it with his life. The crew is fraught, it’s all for naught, they blame her for their strife. Henry watches on as overboard she's thrown. Now’s the chance to let the girl know she won’t die alone. Too weak to fight em all off. Too loathed to call out their bluff. Ill Luck Henry takes a pause And that becomes the cause Of an unextraordinary life Filled with regret. Of looking down, of giving up. Abandoning Olette. As he drowns out at sea, He makes his final plea; [Leonora and Hank] “I would be a better man If I could do it again.” [Leonora] As he speaks the words, time stands still. // [Fia and Zirk] (Hmm) The fairy Leonora’s outstretched hand offers a deal. // [Fia and Zirk] (Hmm) “If you could do it again, you’d be different you say? // [Fia and Zirk] (Hmm) How many men agree to change only then to stray?” “You’re too dull to be a good play. I’m too intrigued not to try anyway.” Ill Luck Henry’s born anew And so begins a slew // [Fia and Zirk] (And so begins a slew) Of unextraordinary lives // [Fia and Zirk] (Unextraordinary) A sailor on the waves // [Fia and Zirk] (Sailor on the waves) Who lives and dies for sixty-nine // [Fia and Zirk] (Sixty-nine) Unholy, watery graves. // [Fia and Zirk] (Unholy graves) Is it futile, can he change The story that we pen? It matters nay, we have to try Over and over again. [Leonora and Hank] Over and over and over and over and over and over again! [Leonora] The tale our latest draft tells, although it’s far from done, Of saving souls and taking oaths and cherishing your son, Could not be told alone, a truth I never saw was You had the courage all along, you didn’t fail because you were Too wont to run from what’s tough. [Leonora and Hank] Two hands were just never enough! [Leonora] Ill Luck Henry does the work, [Leonora and Hank] It’s light with Fia and Zirk! In this extraordinary life, With all that has occurred, We all deserve a second chance, We all deserve a third. [Leonora, Hank, Fia, and Zirk] What makes a life worth living, A story worth the end, Are the friends who stick right by your side Over and over again. [Leonora and Hank] Over and over and over and over and over and over again!

I've listened to this a few times today and it's gorgeous, really feels like you've captured the air of how Leonora would present the story. It's crazy to me, how a podcast which opens its first episode with a discussion of Dragon Genitals can give such genuine moments as this, and inspire talented people like you to create something wonderful from them. So, thank you.

As this has worked its way into my shower singing at least once a week I realized what a nightmarish tongue twister "the fairy Leonora's outstretched hand offers a deal" is, even though it doesn't seem it, props for saying it's so elegantly!

oh my goodness you have no idea how much it means to me to have made it into shower singing rotation🥺 and trust me, i spent many a shower just repeating that line very slowly, training my mouth to say it borderline intelligibly lmao

Man, I’ve listened to this song at least 10 times now and Henry’s voice coming in with the line “I would be a better man if I could do it again.” still gives me CHILLS! Love the whole thing, excellent work!
