	Metal Machine Music, Part 4? One, two and three end with a vowel …

	I consider the whole of Metal Machine Music to be one song, broken apart by necessity due to length and the vinyl format. Congratulations!

	Cool! The next one is a bit difficult, I think. The song has been recorded many times, and never with the person who actually wrote it. I’m asking for one special recording.

	I see. Was it written before 1960?

	Was the songwriter a performer as well?

	Interesting. Was the composer born in the United States?

	To be honest, I’m not sure who the composer was, but he was probably European. The person who wrote the lyrics, performed the song and made the tune known was not American. The poet may have made a few tunes, but normally s/he borrowed tunes from others.

	Ah I see. So the melody is traditional and the lyrics are by the performer (who is a woman.) Is she European then?

	I wrote s/he not to reveal if it’s a man or a woman. But European is right.

	Is the recording you're after from earlier than 1970?

	Is this performer, this man, this thief of other people's songs from that part of Europe commonly referred to as "Western"?
