Subject: RE: BS: My pet musical peeve
Ooooh! Minus! My old singing mate who said "acapello" was like that ----- except she didn't have any musical education! She was insistent that a song be sung EXACTLY as it was written, with no small stylish variations of melody whatsoever. Now of course you don't want to rewrite someone's song, but there is that thing called Style that keeps us all from sounding the same.

In that interesting situation, I was the one with all the formal training, and my educated opinion carried No Weight Whatsoever. Miss Thang made all the decisions.

but like I said before... gee... where is she now? mwahahahaha
