I can't understand this.  Am I really wired so differently than
most people here?  Constellation of the Heart is one of my three
favorite tracks on the album.  The part where she sings the title
several times in succession sends chills up and down my spine, just
like the best of Kate's songs do.

I mean, in the past, when people have complained about a song of Kate's
that they didn't like, I may not have completely agreed, but at least
I understood.  For example, I understood why a lot of people didn't
like Reaching Out on her last album.  But this I just don't understand.
