Subj: [kl] Music the makes you Wince

I make no representations on the quality of "Stairway to Heaven". It is in
Dave Barry's Book of Bad songs, for reasons similar to those mentioned by
Mark Charette. Please don't send me an MP3, as I've listened to it plenty
of times in my mis-spent youth. For "legs", give me Mozart's "Marriage of
Figaro" over "Stairway to Heaven" any time; though I suspect that listening
to a piece of music 1,000 times is quite a bit different from PLAYING a
piece of music 1,000 times when it comes to getting sick of said piece.

YOU THINK STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN IS A BAD POP SONG!!!!!!! HOW CAN YOU!!!! IT IS
LED ZEPPELIN'S MOST FAVORITE SONG, AND A TIMELESS CLASSIC. ALL IT IS ABOUT
IS LIFE...AND IT CAN BE RELATED TO NO MATTER WHAT....AND IT HAS AN AMAZING
SOUND!!!!I have got to see you say that one more time before I can believe
it...have you ever heard it? If not, I'll see if I can send you an Mp3 of
it...it is amazing. I have the clarinet and the flute musci for it...
