Ha, good one, Will Fly. J Boden certainly wasn't original with the idea, but does seem to have had the visibility to start a trend. To the credit of most people following, there has been something more to their projects than the "at regular intervals" aspect. Because one of several criticisms I have of Boden's project is the emphasis on "each day." Otherwise, it is just "folk songs" which are all rather common and not particularly interesting IMO. And I'm afraid the requisite of having one per day (why do I get the feeling that 7 were spun off on Sundays and then posted up by a designated blogger through the week?) puts such a pressure on that, to keep up, one must turn to the old familiar stand-bys, their accessible forms (recording disseminated versions), without time for exploring any new interpretations or doing proper research on the songs. So the end result seems rather pointless except to say, "Look, I did one per day." 365 INTERESTING songs over any span of time would be a better and lasting body of work...especially if focused on a more specific theme than generic Anglo Folk Song.
