Actually, "Melancholy Baby" is quite a beautiful song, and I'm not surprised it gets requested so much that there is an old joke about it.
Two great melodies - but of course not folk songs. I don't mind them being discussed myself; I'm just afraid the administrators are going to rebel!
I think it is the FORMAT of this forum that is so attractive to lovers of all kinds of songs. Why not create a parallel forum, someone, with the identical format. I'd contribute a lot to a like forum on pop and rock!
