I think "Canary Yellow Canoe" is kind of funny & quirky,despite (as I've mentioned) it being a re-do of "Roll Over Beethoven". It's just for fun folks,that's why it was not on an LP,not meant for serious consideration. ;)

Okay, there is a song that I always skip and I am sure many of you will fall over when I say it. It's "Beautiful". I have never really connected with that one.lol I know it is a favorite here... [/QB]
I have to agree. just ask brink, I can't stand this one. I had to confess it one night in chat to get her to confess her DQ ambivalence.

Beautiful and Softly I think I've only listened to all the way through once.

Now, Softly had me crying my eyes out and sobbing -- I had to pull the car over and get a handle on myself the first time I heard it. But, hey, I'm an easily-conned woman, I guess!! LOL , Steve!!

Softly's all right, but Beautiful is probably the most boring GL tune ever. Another one I'm not too crazy about is Bitter Green.

I'm with you there about Bitter Green, Chris. However, I know from reading this forum, as well as attending concerts, that you and I are in the minority.

I'll agree with those who are not fond of "Beautiful". It's not a bad song by any means, but I just don't connect with it. I often skip over it when playing that album.

Yes. It's one of those songs I don't like myself, yet I can still see why others would like it.

Here's another "least fav. topic" that got kind of out of hand,thanks to former teen poster (child :D ) DMD3 and his split personalities! :rolleyes:

The songs I mentioned,I like a bit more now. ;) As we grow,so do our minds. :)

i always thought that guy was some grouchy old man who had nothing to do but cause trouble. Didn't realize it was another young person. I'd always figured another young person into GL would have be more mateur than that. guess i'm wrong. :rolleyes:

i don't care too much for Keeping On Yearning or Beautiful. YourLoves Return is another one that i skip over quite often. those are about the only songs i don't like that come to mind. :)
