Thread Name: Songs you sing and songs you don't sing!
Subject: RE: Songs you sing and songs you don't sing!
I draw the line with songs I like.

I care if the song is or is not politically correct I will still sing it as long as I like it.   I won't edit a song that was once acceptable and it isn't now. The historic value of a song is more important to me that whether it mentions Jesus, God, War, Women (Wymyn) or Indians in currently acceptable terms. The only exception is when the song uses the "N" word. Then I change that to something that fits the context of the song.

And I also don't sing songs I can't. I don't sing in church. Not for any religious reason but because I find church songs to be set in awful keys and are generally not suited for my voice.
