This is the latest installment of my occasional series featuring landslides as they appear in different types of art (and part 16 will follow soon!).  The previous edition, Part 14, is here.

On this occasion, for only the second time, I have a song for yo (here is the previous song, on my original blog site).  This song, which was written by Mark Owen, is about the Manawatu Gorge landslide in New Zealand.  You should be able to play it below, if not you can access it (and indeed download it if you so wish) here:

Will we now see a host of landslide videos on Youtube that use the song?
