Heck, you might be one of the few webloggers who like Def Leppard more than me. But the original "Whiter Shade of Pale" just drones on. It's headbanging (on a table, that is) painful for me to listen to. I’m far from being an artsy-type. Heck, you might be one of the few webloggers who like Def Leppard more than me.

On that alone, the song gets my respect. Brightman's version sure is a step ahead of Lennox's; that of Willie Nelson I do not respect because of the change in lyrics. I have yet to get my hands on the original recording by Procul Harum.

Oh, well. To each his own. “A Whiter Shade of Pale by Sarah Brightman”
