Art IS SUBJECTIVE
Hi Dan -and welcome aboard
this is an interesting thread and place to see this conversation all happening.
what gets promoted by BiG bucks -- simply has More of a Chance of being heard by More people -- so if it Is liked - it does well and has a chance to make money...
I love both Leonard Cohen's song (and many good covers of it) and Alanis' song -- but I liked their prior works also - so they were on my radar before I heard these songs... and in both cases it is the super writing and content that speaks to me.
Polly - I wish you and Glynda the very best with the song -- it does take passion to sing a song well - and that will give 'Step to the Side' a Chance to be considered by the public--so sing it ! You will know by the response if others agree with you... But get it down vocally before you take it on the road. : ) jm
