I quit paying attention to the words in songs long ago.  Very few singers,
Billy Joel is one, articulate enough for me to understand.  It's my
deafness.  Pop music seems to be mostly about the words.  Tuneful songs
seem to have died somewhere in the 60s - for me.  Practically no songs are
worth listening to just for the music.  Of course the Requiem is one of
them.  bill w
