Now THIS is how rational discussion proceeds.  A stated opinion as to a song without denegrating someone else's.  Here, it is stated that the person finds the song beautiful, and states what they think is beautiful about it.  No implication that it is SAD if another doesn't have the same impression.  THIS, Mark, is how one engages in a rational discussion.
