y Google CHAPTER XXI THE MUSICAL ELEMENTS OF THE P0PX7LAS SONG The easiest thing in the world is to write a song; the most difficult, to write a song that will be popu- lar. I do not mean a ''popular" song, but a song everybody will whistle — for few songs written for the populace really become songs of the people. The difference between poverty and opulence in the busi- ness of song- writing is — whistling. What is the difference, then, between the man who can ''write songs" and the one who ca...n write songs everybody will whistle? Wherein lies the magic? Here is the difference, unexplained it is true, but at least clearly stated: There are hundreds of men and women all over the land who can rhyme with facility. Any one of them can take almost any idea you suggest off hand, and on the instant sing you a song that plays up that idea. These persons are the modern incarnations of the oldtime minstrels who wandered over the land and sang extemporaneous ditties in praise of their host for their dinners.
