Wolfgang..I know what you are saying..but i would call those hate songs. I'm curious about the songs that cannot be sung because they make people uncomfortable and they *should.* What are the songs you get the most flack about when you sing them in public? What brings out the culture police?

Phil..I love songs with teeth in them too. I think lullabies can be dangerous by my definition..I hear people complain sometimes about the "violence" in traditional lullabies like Go Tell Aunt Rhody. Turns out the "violence" is there for a deeper reason. Rosalee Sorrels used to do a whole schtick about every culture having violence in their lullabies.
