Now ye sons of the kraaken, let's get to some honest pillaging, shall we? Aaaarh!

OK it's the morning after the party at the China Quay, and our hero is waking up. What has happened?
Influenced by about 6 different doowop tunes (great for hangovers!)
Here now, there be treasure to hide and we'll bury it full deep in the earth, and ye with it if you tell the tale. To the shovels lads, and dig down.

I wanted to take a shot at this too, so here's my demo. It was really just half…
