Yeah, that's great, never thought Mendelssohn has something to do with it!

As for me, I'm more disturbed than someone calls a song 'track'. It's far worse than the original matter with Apple, because that's derogatory towards one's (hard) work. A term of 'song' involves soul or something...and 'track' sounds mechanic and lifeless to me. As a special term it is OK - in sound engineering and deejaying you mix the tracks. The problem is, there is no universal and suitable word. You see, instrumental composition is a piece, but if it is electronic, it also sounds weird to say it is a piece even though there was more effort put in it to use the generic 'track'...
