MS Azura
MV Azura is a cruise ship operated P&O Cruises and owned by Carnival PLC. The ship was built by Fincantieri at their shipyard in Monfalcone, Italy. At over 115,000 tonnes, Azura is the third largest of eight ships currently in service with P&O Cruises. She is also the sister ship of MS Ventura. She officially entered service with the company in April 2010 and was named by Darcey Bussell.
Delivery
Azura is a Grand class ship, with a modified design which distinguishes her from early ships of the same class. Construction of Azura began in 2008 when her keel was officially laid on 27 October 2008. A ceremonial float out took place on Friday 26 June 2009, in which she was blessed by a priest, with Amanda Dowds, wife of the ship's captain, acting as her Godmother. The formal handover took place on 26 March 2010.

Azura's maiden voyage began on 31 March 2010, when she departed from the Fincantieri shipyard en route to Southampton. She arrived in the UK on 7 April 2010 at 9:12am. Azura's cruise with passengers began on 12 April 2010.

Miss Misery
by: NazarethSince you came into my life
It's the same old situation
Empty days and lonely nights
Filled with bitterness and frustration.
Walking lonely in the cold
Tryin’ to find the answer
Spend my money on a crystal ball
And the charms of a gypsy dancer.
Tryin’ to break the spell you hold on me
Chorus:
You're miss misery
That's all that you'll ever be
Set me free, set me free
Please, please, please
Everyday is filled with shame
My nights are filled with anger
Hollow lies, forced denial
If you told the truth I can't remember.
You know I've got to find my way
Got to find a reason
Got to find your weakness
So I can end your witchin season.
Got to break the spell you hold on me
Chorus:
You're miss misery
That's all that you'll ever be
Set me free, set me free
Please, please, please
Lead:
Can't think how I got myself
Caught up in this nightmare
Evil schemes, midnight screams
Come on somebody listen to my prayer
I'd give all I've got to give
Just to find a way out
Can't hold on, but I can't let go
I'm trapped on this crazy round about
Tryin’ to break the spell you hold on me
Chorus:
You're miss misery
That's all that you'll ever be
Set me free, set me free
