Loving John Leonard claiming that, because the STORY is a traditional legend, that makes the SONG Seth has written based on the story traditional too...

What a disingenuous load of claptrap and a pathetic excuse for keeping the song in the running. There's nothing more infuriating than when someone won't simply admit that they're wrong, and back down. It's very Blairite.

Sad thing is, the typical R4 listener won't understand the issue because of the way JL has spun it, and that Dave didn't get a chance to reply and challenge him.
