Why 10cc's 1975 pop hit, "I'm Not in Love" should have been a serious pop ballad, minus Kathy Redfern's negative middle part instead of a joke song with her middle part added that made that song a mess

 "I'm Not in Love",  done by British pop band 10cc,  is a powerful song that conveys strong emotions, and the addition of Kathy Redfern 's negative middle part detracts from the overall impact of the song. The lyrics and melody are strong enough to stand on their own, and without that middle part, the song would have been a much more powerful and meaningful ballad. By removing the joke element and allowing the song to stand as a serious pop ballad, the impact of the lyrics and melody would have been much more profound.

Why 10cc's 1975 original tune "I'm Not in Love" would've sounded better without Kathy Redfern's annoying be-quiet-big-boys-don't-cry nonsense that spoiled that meaningful ballad

 The original version of "I'm Not in Love" by 10cc is a beautiful and meaningful ballad that can evoke strong emotions in the listener. However, the addition of Kathy Redfern 's annoying, repetitious "be-quiet-big-boys-don't-cry" nonsense detracts from the emotional power of the song and spoils the impact it could have had. Removing this line would have resulted in a more powerful and emotionally resonant version of the song, allowing listeners to experience the full range of emotions it conveys.

Why Kathy Redfern's negative spoken word that spoiled 10cc's instrumental song "How Dare You", taken from their last album of the same name with Godley & Creme, released in 1976, should have been removed because of its negative content that hurts families and children

  Kathy Redfern 's 2 negative spoken lines, "Quiet!"and "How dare you!" should have been removed from 10cc 's instrumental song "How Dare You" because of their negative content. The lyrics of the song can be interpreted as disrespectful and hurtful towards families and children, which is not appropriate for a song. The song is from their last album of the same name with Godley & Creme , released in 1976, and these negative spoken lines do not add anything to the overall theme of the song. By removing these lines, the song would still be enjoyable, but without the negative connotations associated with them.
