Burka) Organization: Indiana University, Bloomington Lines: 25 Vickie writes that she agrees with Susan, and I figgered it was time to toss in my 2 bits (I've been trying not to...) I heard the TWS version before I heard/got TKI, and thought it was a neat song. I then got TKI and fell in love with the song (I still don't have a copy of TWS!). At first it seemed like I only liked the TKI version better because I was more familliar with it. However, when I finally read _Wuthering Heights_, I was able to truly say that the earlier version captures Cathy the way I saw her in the book (although, of course, that was influenced by the songs!). In discussing the versions of the songs with friends, we finally decided that I liked the TKI version because it captures the child-Cathy that comes back at the beginning of the book, while my friends like the TWS version because it's more ghostly--there's what sounds like a little extra re-verb on KaTe's voice that makes it haunting/ghostly...and it's obviously much older Cathy being portrayed...
