I think in the congenial spirit of this forum we should not pick on ANY singer, writer, band leader, etc. That includes Boris Johnson, as much as you may dislike him. Just stick to the subject, please. No, I am not scolding, just reminding that there is too much discord outside to bring it inside.

 

[Galu]

I wasn't picking on a singer. If you think so you have misread the situation. See how easy it is to introduce discord! 😉

I would have put money on you posting any Yes song post Drama!

 

[funkuncut]

Wasn't DB considered a great artist subsequently, where Laughing Gnome is concerned? But don't change it!

 

[Kay Pirinha]

@patrickblue: You're absolutely right, of course. But that song spontaneously came into my mind as I read the last few contributions of the previous theme 😉.

Best regards!

The theme should perhaps rather be "Crappy songs by otherwise great artists". I wasn't really paying attention to the 'formerly' bit.

Please let us avoid Norman Greenbaum! 😀

I specifically said that I wasn't scolding. How is that introducing discord? I was specifically trying to prevent discord. If you took my post that way, I'm sorry. I like everything else I have seen from you and don't want alienation with or by anyone.

 

[jaxboy]

That's a hard one, since I don't keep crappy songs. Too, most people don't like my taste in music, so "crappy" is in the mind of the beholder.

 

[omega man]

I think you guys are right. The subject is probably too vague and too subjective. To keep things moving along, I will change "formerly" to "otherwise"......

@jaxboy Allow me to assure you that I had no intention of "picking on" Norman Greenbaum.

I was suggesting, to my mind humorously, that Spirit in the Sky would be a much too obvious next entry.

02 - Ribbon In The Sky - Stevie Wonder

Please let us avoid Norman Greenbaum! 😀

Because Spirit in the Sky is too obvious a choice. 🙂

Next time I think I am being humorous, I'll just keep my big Scottish trap shut! Let there be peace in the glen.
