This whole thread reminds me of the Garnet Rogers song "Jesus and Elvis", which is really the closest I've ever gotten to appreciating mr. Presley.I do like the fact that the 4-chord sequence to "Blue Moon" segues rather humorously into several traditional folk-songs, and it's a good vocal warm-up.
Though I am a die-hard folkie, my guiltier pleasures include 80's heavy metal, Jimmy Buffet, and the broadway musical "hair"
And, in defense of my fellow canadian, Mr. L. Cohen, he's a brilliant, if depressing, songwriter who should jsut sit bakc and let others, with a vocal range more than a half-octave, cover his work. Jennifer Warnes did an entire album of cohen covers, and it was great, if a little bit poppy in places.
My 2 cents.
