Written/spoken poetry can be somewhat more subtle in its inflections because it isn't as bound by metrics.

His reading is surprisingly good. It's surprising merely and mainly because it exists. But still good. What kind of man was PL? A total and utter horrid miserable old c*nt. Like me!

PL thought the poem on the page was what mattered most, but didn't object to fans who wanted to hear the poems as he spoke them. Something that gets them into people's ears can only be a good thing.

I've only just though of looking this up. What would PL have possibly made of it?

You obviously don't understand the point of poetry then. Poetry rather than lyrics..whoodaman?

poetry survives in song lyrics these days, over the past forty years so many fantastic poets have been effectively ignored by the world of poetry merely for singing them- lennon and mccartney, ian curtis, morrissey, pete doherty, alex turner all produce absolutely gorgeous verse

Typically Larkin.
