I don't agree with you about "Take Her in Your Arms", Bill. I think it is rather a fine song.

I know what you mean about "The Scotsman" . I wouldn't say that the rhymes themselves are forced but the syntax is certainly squeezed quite a bit in order to get the rhymes into the right places.

I like doing "The Scotsman" , but I don't think I shall sing it much in Scotland (unless there are Americans in the audience ....*G*)
