I know that, Enzo - and I agree. I am not talking about his achievements
as a songwriter, and maybe even as a creator of a new style in the music
gender. For me, it is plainly and simply his ever whining sort of
"singing" that so goes on my nerves. I am sorry, but that is the way I
hear it, and how I feel about it.
