If I can bring a smile to peoples faces by singing one of the aforementioned songs (which I have done), then I will sing it and sod Ian Anderson and his ilk.
The trouble is that are several songs that simply got overworked and people got fed up of them.
That said I do draw the line at melodeon playing sharks as the humour is more than a little worn out and I am pleased to say you don't hear it much now, though Pleasant and Delightful is quite regularly sung at one Folk Club I go to.
