    Naming oneself BEAT16 and talking about The Greatest Songwriters is a bit paradoxical. Could someone help me to figure that out?:invision:

    This thread is pushing the meaning of the term "singer-songwriter" quite a bit.

    But as for songwriters, we lost a giant just now: Jim Steinman.

    He, for instance, wrote hit songs for Meat Loaf, funnily enough as he's mentioned in this thread.

    Will do - rewrite your question as follows and the puzzle goes away...
    pretending to be talking about "The Greatest Songwriters" in order to attract views that an honest title
    like my favourite stuff would simply fail to attract.

    A benign form of trolling at best.

    You have not changed "The Title" at all.
    You have simply changed the description in your first post.
    The Title still does not match what you are doing in the thread - not even close.

    I found where to change the title. Didn't even know that you can change that.
    Thank you for the hint ! The title of the thread has now been changed.
     
  15. Excellent! Now we can do away with the stigma of style and substance and declare this a free for all. Finally I can reveal my personal favourite song! Be thrilled by this riveting performance of a tune that has captivated me since I lapsed into a catatonic state soon after it started.

    Sincerely, my first thought was that this might have been an unfortunate side effect of a Covid vaccine in an elderly care home.
    and yet it's actually a 'performance' in a University Music Department. :rofl:
    I stand chastised - what a jewel of a video (but not for any reasons the participants intended)
    Mind boggling.

    This week's favorite. It just utterly blows my mind that the song is still entirely relevant and nothing at all seems to have changed in the last 40+ years or so that Stevie had penned it. It made me sad then and makes me sad still. It's one great friggin song as is the whole Talking Book Album.
