    I heard this one the first time while driving, almost fell out of my car at Tonto's message to The Lone Ranger.  laugh

    Might make  a good animation - a boat, a horse, a couple of cowboys, Tonto ...

    I'm reading a book by a writer/professor on the subject of stories and why they are such a big part of civilization.  He tells a story about his car radio starting a country song, which he hates.  But before he could change the station, he started listening, then started crying and had to pull over.  The story would make a good animation plot for the "Coming Of Age" genre in the 48 Hour contest.  Another would be a personal favorite, "Bob Dylan's Dream".

    I mentioned this in another discussion, but its an example of an animation literally inspired by a great song.

    I also like the song, but there are a LOT of people who do not.  It even made humorist Dave Barry's "Bad Song Survey":  "There was also a solid vote for Gordon Lightfoot's 'The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald', a real fun party song. Several voters singled out the line: 'As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most'."  (Just to mention it, I think this particular Barry column got way more responses than any other column.  Some people REALLY hate some songs, more than this one.)
