Re: I have one of the worst songs ever stuck in my head . . .
I have no problem having a discussion over whether or not he is #1.
Anyone who would leave him out of a top 5, or even top 3 list is completely ignorant of the genre.

I guess he means Bob Dylan, but I'd put him on the same level as Paul Simon, because although Bob Dylan certainly had more effect in shaping the genre, Paul Simon has had a much more prolific career. [/ QUOTE ] Umm, without looking at either's discography, I'm pretty sure this is wrong, plus half of Simon's career sucked and was just him strumming with Kenyan women moaning in the background.

Re: I have one of the worst songs ever stuck in my head . . .
I could understand some confusion of what constitutes the singer/songwriter genre. I consider it an offshoot of amderican folk and would include Bob Dylan, Paul Simon, James Taylor, Dave Van Ronk, etc., and I would consider most of those musicians you just listed as rock stars.

Paul Simon's career started almost 10 years before Bob Dylan's did and he's releast records at a similar rate. Also, much of Bob Dylan's releases in the last 10-15 years have just been rerecordings of older songs.

I kind of have the same feelings about Neil Young that I have about Bob Dylan. He's an incredible songwriter, and his work is incredibly influential, but his voice sucks.

'If you'll be my bodyguard' by Paul Simon. I have no idea why, I haven't heard it in years but there it is, over and over again . . . If you'll be my bodyguard, I can be your long lost pal. Oh the horror. Anyone else? Been done before, but I always like the responses. [/ QUOTE ] Which plumpster is more disturbing?  I know I'm more musically inclined, anyway...

Re: I have one of the worst songs ever stuck in my head . . .
I once got "Ironic" by Alanis Morissette stuck in my head. It made me sick to my stomach and was unable to sleep because of it. I figured that had it gone on longer than it did there would have been a "Banana Phone" incident.
