Favourite lyrics are "complicated" 18 Years, 5 Months ago  
Did anyone else read this? According to UK literacy experts, many top 10 lyrics are "complicated" for many readers. I've been told this before, but never by a UK minister!

"Whilst we might think we know these tunes inside out, it's only on reading the lyrics properly that we realise that some of our favourite numbers are complicated."

He has a point, of course. More below.

Off the top of my head:

"One" by U2
"Lush Life" by Nat King Cole (written by Billy Strayhorn)
"Cadillac Walk" by Moon Martin
...and lots of fun stuff by Abba and Kool and the Gang.
