Well, Matt, after I finish my Year 12 I *am* planning to study ethnomusicology in university (and I hope, calypso in Trinidad as part of that). I'm very interested in the folk music of other cultures. But- what about dialect, for instance, in songs such as "Dallas Gawn A Cuba" (a Jamaican song)? What's your opinion on that? What about some Scottish (possibly Irish as well?) songs with dialect in them, where the language is an important part of the song? What about some Gullah traditional songs, or songs in a completely different language, where if you sing a translated version into English or whatever your main spoken language is, it loses something?
