Thread Name: Songs you shouldn't sing in UK folk club
Subject: RE: Songs you shouldn't sing in UK folk club
No mention of "Kumbayah"? That would be top of the done-to-death list in the US ~ not in the UK?

(Actually, the informal ban on it has been in force for so long that there may be a whole new generation who would find it fresh and new...but I don't think so.)

Another sign of my ignorance as an across-the-pond outsider: I have no idea which song called "Hallelujah" causes such offense: "Hallalujah I'm a Bum"? "Glory Glory Hallelujah Since I Laid My Burden Down"? I hope it's neither of those, 'cause I like' em both...
