Thread Name: Kate Rusby, 'You belong to me'
Subject: RE: Kate Rusby, 'You belong to me'
I suppose most of Diane's foul mouthing in this thread is based on the idea that ..

"You belong to me so do what I bloody well say. What bollocks. Some men should just take a look at themselves once in a while."

Bad news for you Diane - You Belong To Me was written by a woman (Chilton Price) a professional musician and student of music appreciation.
I think most versions of the song have been performed by women too, including of course, the one you're bumping your gums about here.
How's that for a dose of "dispassionate accuracy"?
So there we have it 'nice' little Kate Rusby is not only the anti-christ of English folk music, she's also a rampant opressor of men-folk (no wonder John McCusker's hair stands on end!) singing in an accent that doesn't really exist.
I never realised she was so complex!
