Thread Name: Songs We're Too Cool To Sing
Subject: RE: Songs We're Too Cool To Sing
To the contrary of Art's preferences, I love The Frozen Logger, and I confess that I sing it too much.
Many years ago, when I was young and callow, my brother's 10 kids, who constituted my biggest (in size and frequency and enthusiasm) audience, when I'd sing for them for two and three hours at a time, would request certain songs over and over and over and over and--well, you get the idea.
As a result, for many years thereafter I couldn't bring myself to sing Big Rock Candy Mountain or Froggie Went A-Courtin'.
Only of recent times, after a lapse of (what? 45 years?) am I able to sing those songs again.
