Enter "cruises" into the search box on YouTube and the result is a fascinating array of how-I-spent-my-vacation home movies and video sales tools created by travel agencies. Refine your search to a specific cruise line or ship name and you'll find even more. Search for "QE2" and in the list you'll find the "QE2 Amarillo Video."
What's that? The music video filmed for charity during the World Cruise 2006 is set to the Tony Christie single (Is This The Way To) Amarillo? and features over 500 crew members from Cunard Line's Queen Elizabeth 2. I'm not sure what charity benefited, but it seems that everyone from the captain on down to guys in the garbage room participated in the lip-syncing, booty-shaking spoof. Who says there are no singing waiters on Cunard?
After you've seen the charity video, don't miss the "QE2 Amarillo outtakes"... you'll want to see the pillow fight. Look closely, was that a real cat on the navigational charts?
Hat tip to Cruise News Daily for sharing these links back on Feb 2nd in an article entitled "How Often Does QE2 Call at Amarillo?"
