| Hi, Lorilei!! Welcome! Actually, I wasn't thinking of a song. Two thoughts came to mind. One: Lauren Graham's character Lorelai on Gilmore Girls. Two: I was pretty sure I remembered Lorelei being a siren or somthing from maybe Greek or Roman mythology. I looked it up. She's actually classified as a German legend. See two of the definitions I found below, from http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Lorelei: Lo·re·lei (lôr-l, lr-) n. A siren of Germanic legend whose singing lures sailors to shipwreck. (The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition copyright 2000 by Houghton Mifflin Company. Updated in 2009. Published by Houghton Mifflin Company. All rights reserved.) Lorelei [ˈlɒrəˌlaɪ] n (Myth & Legend / European Myth & Legend) (in German legend) a siren, said to dwell on a rock at the edge of the Rhine south of Koblenz, who lures boatmen to destruction [from German Lurlei name of the rock; from a poem by Clemens Brentano (1778-1842)] (Collins English Dictionary – Complete and Unabridged HarperCollins Publishers 1991, 1994, 1998, 2000, 2003) I'm not sure how these defintions bode for our Gerry. He seems especially suspeptible to being lured into destruction by singing temptresses (or violin playing ones anyway )..... | |
