Hi!
Uncle Toad is genuine! Although, true enough...."when Uncle Toad spoke it was not a pretty sight" is not great stuff...I suppose if Uncle Toad moved it wouldn't be a very pretty sound either. And I likely wouldn't play it at a wedding, but it rocks away, so I'd say it's just fine.
Keeping to the animal theme....hands down, "My Pony Won't go"...has to be the all time
worst. Someone might have an interpretation of it somewhere, but they'd also have to explain how the melody is also such a dreary one.
(Gord will forgive me for posting this, I'm sure)
