Forum Idea

Hey, I would like to share this idea (which I stoled from Katie Melua forum, anyway). Like our amazing 'Live 2013 section' which is fulfilled with some brilliant information and contains vivacious discussions about every single concert, what about similar songs section? We have 'A Life In Songs' title after all ;D It's just one topic

I think that'd be a great idea. There's so much to chew on in Mark's songs - look at the thread about Back to Tupelo, and that's just about the lyrics.

Yeah, you can write a dissertation about this song using only this deep multi-paged thread.

Great idea, foma!
We should also try to combine lyrics analyzes with music analyzes somehow because they influence each other. I think a own section would be necessary.

And then we can can all graduate with a degree with our expertise in MK's songs. 

foma : excellent idea. Should we also include DS songs?

Maybe a big section could be created, and then subdivided in albums, and put one thread per song in each subforum to discuss them...

We can start adding the Back to Tupelo and In the Sky threads...

What do you think, my fellow mods?

Excellent idea! Jbaent, if you can create this section and remove the topics from other sections to this one, it will develop in a very interesting thread!  :)

Ask Pottel or Dan, maybe you don't have the right allowance to do so (I can't as far as I know). But don't want it either  ;)
