Helen 'Only You' by the Platters (50) RE: 'Only You' by the Platters 22 Jun 24


I'll tell you two songwriters who will never become my favourites, even if I live to be 100: Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen. It would take a massive earthquake sized upheaval to get me to listen to either of them voluntarily rather than under sufferance e.g. if Hubby plays them on the car stereo.

Having said that, I do like Jeff Buckley's version of Hallelujah, and sometimes if other people sing BD or LC songs. It's the tunelessness and singing flat on the originals which drives me bananas. Sorry to all those BD & LC fans out there. I'm more of a melody and rhythm fan than a poetic lyrics fan especially if they are halfway between spoken and sung. LOL
