Tonight I watched a movie on TV called "The Magician of Lublin" - made in
1979 and starring Alan Arkin.  It looked interesting to me because it is
set in Poland in 1901, and is based on a story by Isaac Bashevis Singer
about a Jewish magician.  Anyway, during a musical interlude, I thought I
heard a familiar voice in the soundtrack. "Nah, couldn't be", I thought. 
When the credits finally rolled, there it was - Title Song, "The Magician"
sung by KATE BUSH.  Is this common knowledge?  Does this song appear
anywhere?  Is this a *find* or just old news?

The good news is that I actually taped the movie and can go back and have
another listen.  The bad news is that I missed the first 5 minutes on the
tape, and don't know if the movie opened with Kate singing.
