Thread Name: Singing Songs You Don't Agree With
Subject: RE: Singing Songs You Don't Agree With
This is a very good subject. I'm going to post a couple of thoughts ... both sincere. I hope I don't start another "range war", as that is NOT my intent ...

After my U.S. Army service time, in the mid fifties, I entered college as a freshman. Because of my early studies, I was on a quick path to get a degree as a director of choir music. I had the talent, skills, etc. But after the intense study of sacred music, I realized that I did not agree with the message. I dropped out of college for 7 years because I could longer "sing songs I didn't agree with."

People who know me well also know that I am death on unlawful drugs. Songs like "Cocaine Lill" ... "Take a Whiff ON Me" have always caused me to leave the room.

So, in answer to your question ... no ... I can't sing songs I don;t agree with. bob(deckman)nelson
