For heaven's sake! The modern contemporary defenition of a ballad is quite simply:A Slow Song. "Beautiful" is a ballad. "Cotton Jenny" is a toe-tapper. "Sundown" is contemporary country & pop music. "Pop" is short for popular. The classic sense of Ballad,yes,is a poem or song that tells a story. Believe it or not,the theme song of Gilligan's Island is called,"The Ballad Of Gilligan's Isle." Hmmmm..I wonder how Gord would sound doing that one?? The legend lives on,of 7 castaways gone. On the big ship called S.S. Minnow. Who's fault can it be,I'll give guesses of three,but sure it's Gilligan we all know! Borderstone,outta here and Alberta Bound!
