(message) Quick question, what's the story with "New Orleans is Sinking"? It's got to be a metaphor for something, I heard it refers to the old Three's Company rivalry between Suzanne Sommers and the show. I understand you guys are big fans as am I of Three's Company and of your music. Please assist me, you guys rock!
Thanks, Mario

New Orleans - the city is sinking. That is the basis of the song.
