Thanks Bruce,
   I'm not at home right now, but using the computer in a public library where I can't use sound, but I'll give it a listen when I get home.

I'm not a Mudcatter. I've seen the odd thread, but never contributed. Someone contacted me about this topic. I am an Australian singer and songwriter. I wrote "Lament for Pluto" a couple of years back. It's not on YouTube, but there's about a third of it as a sample on my website: http://www.brucewatsonmusic.com/cds-books.html click on Track 6 of the first album (Balance)

Thanks, I mighta known that Christine would do one. At last summer's Shelter Valley Folk Festival, Vance Gilbert did "Goodbye Pluto" and I
was trying to track it down. I should have known it'd be on Youtube:
Goodbye Pluto - Vance Gilbert

Christine Lavin has one that charts the rise and fall of Pluto as a planet. It is called "Planet X" and is on her albums Shining My Flashlight on the Moon" (1997) and "Sometimes Mother Really Does Know Best" (2004).

There is a live version (so-so) available on youtube here.

Don't know who did it, but someone cared.

Vocal starts at 2:30.

Anyone heard or written any songs about Pluto losing its planetary status?
