Thread Name: The 'New Folk Movement'?
Subject: RE: The 'New Folk Movement'?
That intangible quality; call it folk.
I like it best when I'm flat broke,
Some find it background for a joke

Elegant? well,... maybe so...
Sad or happy, fast or slow,
It doesn't matter, I dont know,
Which or when or where to go

But this I do know, try it out!
Don't analyze and poke and pout...
Opinions aren't what its about,
Oh Boy! WE DO FOR CHORUS, SHOUT!

Preservation gives me hopes
The Past will show us the new ropes
And believe not now the marketing dopes
Just sidestep progress; folk elopes!
