His album "Brian Dewan Tells the Story" is full of groovy ballads he has penned, including "Wastepaper-Basket Fire." I keep thinking that combustion may be mentioned in that song, but the CD's out on loan at present. . . Margaret |

The song actually had to have the word "combustion" in it, the subject matter wasn't specified. Actually it could make a very interesting challenge, couldn't it - name a word, then find a song mentioning that word - the more unusual, the better! Cheers JennieG |

From: mg for actual combustion word...I would bet on some of Mark Graham's stuff about the universe.. for ordinary fire...how about when the old dun cow caught fire, burning ring of fire, fires of Calais.. for forest fires, timely, Craig Brandis of Portland wrote a great one about a brush fire...and one I heard on the radio..about a miner who became hunchbacked from digging and became a lumberjack, got made fun of until there was a fire and he saved the day by digging trenches... mg |
