a Seagull Hallelujah

you wanted all 120 verses? |I don't even think you can find them all in one place!

most artists attempting s cover of this masterwork pick and choose verses.. the choice of verse can change tone of song entirely.

perhaps the length chosen was defined by how long they could sit there before their ankles froze?

RobertW , Boy, I guess I assume way too much.  lol.  When I talk about an album version or state someone's name in the possessive sense, I mean the song as written and performed by the original artist.

I know there's lots of songs that are covered by lots of people, but if I'm talking about a cover, I'll usually always mention it's a particular cover I'm talking about.

Anyways, I also wasn't talking about any "interpretations" etc wherein one changes the tone or emotions or lyrics etc of the song, I was just talking about the song itself.  I guess I shouldn't assume, but usually when I'm talking with people about songs, it's an axiom that you're talking about the original unless you throw some other descriptor in there to say otherwise.

When you're covering a song, if the original has 6 verses and you do 3 (for example), you're covering half the song, not the whole song.  That's all I was talking about. Yeeesh!  Stop getting technical with me R2!
