What on earth does it mean to say that a poem isn't "quite up to metaphysical standards"? Does that belong in this article?

[edit] Relation to alba (poetry)

I think alba is the original langue d'oc name for it, and aubade is the langue d'oïl version, which presumably became more popular after the Albigensian Crusade. Tagelied is the Minnesinger version, and everywhere else seems to use the name aubade. Is that correct? If so, that can be made clearer on all the pages. Rigadoun 18:24, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
