Mermaid Question?

Question

what did they sing to sailors( i knw it was songs)

do you know any good websites about them i want to write a book but i need to loook up research

Answer 1

Heres a interesting theory . Mermaids have always admired and wanted the male human body , ( you know to have you know what with them ) but as they knew they couldnt do it because of the physical differences they got really jealous and wanted to kill them. So they used a kind of hipnotising calling , which is not actually singing with the mouth but its a different kind of calling WITH THE MIND!  it was a mind numbing melodies they used so that sailors could be caught off guard and this is where they drown them into the sea. The elementals of water are actually pretty sensual and sensitive beings , they are not to be confused with mermaids , that btw do exist , but they the kind of beings with a negative vive to them ! sorry to spoil your disney mermaid dream but that could be a reality

Answer 2

Sirens are the type of mermaids that are known to sing the sailors to a watery death.

Answer 4

I don't think there was any definate song. And the Mermaids that sang to sailors were called Sirons, and they had beautiful voices. They could have been singing Old McDonald and it would of worked. The only song I can think of though is on H20, where Cleo gets hit by the full moon. Even then, its really only a tune, and her singing Ah through the whole thing. Hope this helped!

Answer 5

Mermaids are obviously mythological creatures i.e. they don't exist. You can write a book but you will need to head to the fictional section of the library (the staff may prove very helpful) or look-up online. x
