Being a bit befuddled by the recent threads trashing the major 7th chord, I found my self bemused:Are there songs that just gotta have a major 7th (or two)? Songs that cry for that particular form of chord?
Personally, I can think of a few -- like
"House at Pooh Corner"
"Something"
"The Christmas Song"
and a few others (yes, I know they're not "folk songs.")
But, rather than rant on in the abstract, I'm wondering what songs really need major 7ths (or something equally weird, by "folk" standards), and what songs (no more than 3 examples per person, please) are really f**ed up by the inclusion of such chords.
