GUEST,I'm sorry but... Songs about young unwed mothers (Paxton/Prine/etc) (15) RE: Review: Unwed Mothers (Paxton/Prine) 28 Oct 15


Both songs will do absolutely nothing to the situation.

If Bob Dylan or Lady Gaga or Tailor Swift sang the Paxton song, it would probably do something, but I'm betting that they won't. Tom Paxton's isn't "big" enough to influence.

John Prine's song is poignant, but it's so poignant that some listeners won't realize it's poignant. And that's the problem. It's helluva song.

By the way, please be sure to tick the "preview" box before posting song lyrics. Now it looks horrible.
