Review title: One star because I couldn't give it zero.
Product review: Mattie's trite oversimplifications on life are hardly worth reading, much less publishing--and they certainly should never have been put to music. The poems are bad enough by themselves; they completely lack the rhythm and depth of good poetry. Try, then, taking words without any discernable rhythm and forcing yourself to keep true to them, and write a song for them. What you get is lousy.Kudos to Billy for a fine job singing poetry. Kudos to his songwriters for doing a good job putting it to music. Unfortunately, a 100% great job on a terrible source is still 100% terrible. It's all in the math.I'm a huge Billy fan, but I can't recommend this CD to anybody in good conscience.
