WHAT??? (just kidding!!) Yeah, <sigh>, I know, it's a girl thing, I guess. We just loooove being sweet-talked. Hey, works better than chocolate, fellas. [/QUOTE]I hate to admit it but this is another one I just don't like. Never have. (sorry Char!!! don't hit me, GF!)
To me, the only thing more tedious & tiresome than the melody are the lyrics. The entire song lacks his usual passion & creativity. It actually smacks of, "OK. I'll tell you anything you want to hear. It's not as though I haven't said it a million times before to a million other chicks. *yawn*..."
Just another female point of view! [/QUOTE]It could be that Lightfoot didn't intend on Beautiful being a popular song. Maybe he wrote it just to fill up some space on the album, and then the song caught on. If I remember correctly, If You Could Read My Mind was written as a filler song, but it turned out to be one of his biggest hits.
