This discussion has gotten pretty involved. I'm going to go back to Florian's original post. I first noticed the change in the lyric during the Much More Music special and figured it was made in much the same way he has changed lyrics to get away from the "chauvanism" in a few of his songs - which I have no problem with. I figure they are his songs so he can change a word or phrase if he wants to. But to read that quote from the article and see that he made the change to IYCRMM because of a request from his daughter, well that's just downright admirable! Reaffirms my belief in the basic goodness of GL!
