Julianne Dunphy asked whether "the Morning Fog" has quite the same super powerful magic effect on other love-hounds as it has on her. Well i can tell you Julianne, my friend who first turned me on to KaTe cites TMF as her favorite song. She plays it over and over again and states she'll have it played at her funeral (at 25, i tell her she's morbid, she pays me no mind.) Plus, it's the traditional anthem played simultaneously around the world at a certain hour of Greenwich Mean Time on KaTemas. Its "super powerful magical effect" may be the very reason for its selection thereto. I've always heard the song to mean, in the end the woman in The Ninth Wave is neither rescued nor drowned, but washed ashore: "i kiss the ground..." Could i be right, or am i totally at sea....
