85. "Come On Eileen" is NOT the soundtrack to a bukakke video. Well, I suppose it could be.

Also, a quick check of her lyrics to "Who Has Seen the Wind?" might give an indication how you can listen to the falling snow.

just the other week i read this poem by Christina Rossetti (1830-1894) that seems a bit familiar :

Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you;
But when the leaves hang trembling
The wind is passing through.

Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I;
But when the trees bow down their heads
The wind is passing by.

Mark, you do know that that Palace song title is the set-up to punchline in a corny old musician joke, don't you? The punchline is "No, but if you hum a few bars, I'll fake it."
