Thread Name: How the words change
Subject: RE: How the words change
Changing song words is only a "problem" when people insist on joining in with their version of the words! I can remember how hard I had to work to standardise my set of words for a few favourite harmony songs. The discipline of having to keep to particular phrasings and breath-patterns seemed totally alien to me. Yes, as you get used to particular partners you learn how much flexibility remains - but there IS a real difference between the two situations.
