How about The Wreck of the Edmond Fitzerald by Gordon Lightfoot?
Nope. The clue is a simple paraphrase, quite obvious (I think) once the answer is known.
It’s an interesting song, nonetheless!

That name does fit quite nicely, but not the one I had in mind. I don’t even think I’ve heard that song before now.
The correct song is more of a well-known one… it was a chart topper for a while in many countries.

(I Love the Sound of) Breaking Glass?
I’m still trying to figure out if water vessel refers to a glass or a boat. I like the ambiguity.

“Crack A Bottle” by Eminem?
Lots of focus in these answers on this idea of breaking things, which is not in the clue.

Hit the Bottle?
Verb conjugation should match
Hittin’ the Bottle Again?
Don’t think that one was a multicountry chart topper.
Well… smack has an alternate meaning that does not involve any violence. Something along those lines perhaps?
Second to last “bonus” hint: The correct answer contains none of the already-guessed words anywhere inside it.
