I despise MacArthur park, American pie, wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and whatever that song of the beegees about some mining disaster. I fully expect those all to be faves of HD....
“Anerican Pie” is also gag-inducing to me. I never thought that “The Wreck of the Edmund Firzgerald” belonged on the radio as a pop song-it is more like an historical ballad/folk song-the kind of thing people sing at a storytelling session or at a campfire. HD likes songs about disasters and tragedy/suicidal ideation?
I don’t think that I can take it
Cause it took so long to bake it
And I’ll never have that recipe again
Perhaps the most insipid lyrics ever.
