| I want to look inside your head! |
 |
| We'll go down in history! |
Elayne anticipates the onset of cooler seasons ...
 |
| Soon I'll hear old Winter's song ... |
Once more we explored the recurring conundrum, "What is a folk song?"
An example was given suggesting that any song that refers to solicitation, rejection of amorous overtures followed by murder, concealment of a corpse, and a talking bird would qualify.
Songs about nightingales fit the genre too ...
 |
| ... don't you hear the sweet song? |
Oh, and then there's songs about trains ...
 |
| ... upside-down the engine turned! |
Next week we'll have to pick up on the death theme, execution, bodily dismemberment, maritime disasters, cross-dressing crew members, hunting with hounds ... oh, and something Scottish, please, for Maggie.
