2much2lose,

From an academic standpoint, I now see clearly the Third Person references you are refering to. And I agree with you wholeheartedly. The problem I have is that over the years I have performed the songs, I have never had anyone raise that flag before. So in that regard, I take my hat of to you Sir. There has always been that something in the back of my mind that I have never been able to put my finger on, as not being just right and you have pointed that out and I thank you. There are a number of songs that Gordon has done this to, Apology is one but the line evades me at the moment.

As it stands tho, I shall continue to perform his works as is, and let the Emperor of Austria tell Mozart that he has too many notes, if you get my drift?

Thanks Again,

Rob
