Well, we all knew that about Spaw, Hawk. (Or at least we knew you would say that.)

But if you like a song, why apologize?

I enjoy singing a number of songs that are considered racist, e.g., "Short'nin' Bread" or "Mañana," or sexist (painting the woman as victim).   I don't necessarily view the songs that way, but I don't like to have to apologize or explain them when I sing them.

I really don't like Eva Cassidy's arrangement of "Over The Rainbow," even though her voice and styling are marvelous. It's just that, to me, she changed the melody so much that it's unrecognizable, so I don't like it to be called "Over The Rainbow." (I feel that way about a lot of Mariah Carey versions of songs too.)   And Brudda Iz's muddled medley of "Over The Rainbow" and "Wonderful World" really should not be called "Over The Rainbow" either. It, too, is infectious. But he mangles the lyrics to OTR and sings them as a medley with parts of WW, so it irks and saddens me to have young people think that this actually is "Over The Rainbow."
