Arnia, I believe you are looking at it from the conceptual, user experience, angle, where things are more like streams and less artificially chunked
12:36:43 <sbp> if we had to unwork the work of the average working group, it wouldn't take much work
12:36:51 <Arnia> Yes, but the filesystem and network IO level can be altered

13:51:18 <clsn> Most of the songs, I only knew/recognized in their "mundane" forms; I didn't know they had become wedding standards.
13:51:34 <clsn> Some, I realized that I had heard at weddings, but figured *everyone* knew where that was from.
13:51:51 <sbp> are they really changed so as to be almost unrecognisable then?
13:52:07 <clsn> There is the classic case, though, where I only recently found out the song was originally from elsewhere, and it's what more or less started the discussion.
13:52:34 <clsn> No, they aren't. Often they are completely unchanged, except for the lyrics. Sometimes they're changed a bit, sometimes people say "well, that's not really the same song..."
13:53:20 <clsn> Apparently one big deal is some track by a JM group that seems to have copied the arrangement for some big intro from the Scorpions "Rock you like a hurricane".
13:53:45 <clsn> Not even sure it's the whole song, maybe just this big riff or something. But I've never heard the JM incarnation of it, so I don't know.
13:53:50 <clsn> But the classic...
13:54:31 <clsn> Mordechai Ben David's blockbuster hit "Yidden, Yidden." A fantastic, foot-stomping song. Inextricably branded throughout my brain with Yiddish and Jewish music...
13:54:58 <clsn> Was originally a song called "Dschingis Khan" by a group of the same name, I believe a Eurovision entry.
