Re: Nice To Swallow

["Daniel S. Efran" <de0t+@andrew.cmu.edu>]

If you say "Night of the Swallow" quickly (if, for example, you've
already said it before in the same interview) it could easily come out
"Nite o' th' Swallow" or even "Nite o' Swallow."  Which sounds quite a
bit like "Ny to Swallow" which sounds (if you try to fit it back into
english) like "Nice to Swallow."  If you don't believe me, try saying it
yourself.  
It's not hard to imagine someone mishearing something Kate says--read
anyone's attempts to figure out her lyrics--and perhaps thinking that
she was making a joke.
If you really care, that's a pretty reasonable hypothesis.  Feel free to
*not* discuss it further.
