>>she updated big yellow taxi for inflation by increasing the charges for the
tree museum. what other songs would/could benefit from being updated???<<

No comment on the above except to say that recently I bought a CD compilation
by the Temptations which took me back to my disco days in the late 60s or
early 70s. Imagine my surprise when listening to 'Ball of Confusion' I heard
the line 'the sale of crack is at an all-time high'. I remembered the lyrics
as 'the sale of drugs' but the more I listened to it the more I became aware
that it had been re-recorded for the compilation to cash in on the death of
Eddie Hendricks. Curious, or not so much?
