Rollo Are folk lyrics ever 'wrong?' (77* d) RE: Are folk lyrics ever 'wrong?' 05 Jun 01


Be glad for every folk song altered while being sung. For that means some caring heart moves it on as good it can. Our Northern-german folk tradition is dead. There are only some well known pieces left. Printed, occasionally sung and otherwise left alone they are just a carcass resting in a museum. They will never, never change again, only be buried deeper in spiderwebs. *sob*
