We have covered this very topic many times in the past. Do search in the database for those replyies. I think it is a good idea to recirculate this stuff now and then. New blood equals new ideas.

In this case however, unless it is a broad burlesque of a song I view false dialect as pretetious as singing as song in a laguage that neither you, the singer, nor you audience speaks or understands.

Dave Ruch is correct tho'. I think we all tend to sing songs in much the manner we first hear them. There is no other way to explain 250 lb. baritones singing Neil Young songs as if they were bargain counter tenors.
