Waitaminit....Neil Diamond....1950's folk....this is some kind of joke, right??? Aaaaaarrrrrgh!
Actually, I like some of Neil's Diamond's stuff, especially his "Tap Root Manuscript" experiment with African music. The song mentioned is "Holly, Holy." Since it has the word "holy" in it, our choir director thinks it's suitable for liturgy. I disagree, and he calls me a "reactionary." What can I say? Call me prejudiced, but I just kind of usually prefer religious music for religious services.
But, back on the subject, I don't think "Holly Holy" is the song that was requested.
