Hey, folks, simmer down. Yeah, Nude could have been a little sweeter about
this issue, but his point is really not debatable:  Kate definitely sings "On
fire inside a snowball." And the titles on the Cathy Demos EPs are not the
least bit authoritative -- notice, for example, the incorrect "Rose Growing
Old" instead of the correct "Waltz".  The Pheonix titles, on the other hand,
appear to be legitimate, though none of us can be certain of course.

   P.S.: Since IED was asked for his opinion re Breathing, he will say that
he has always interpreted the song's lyrics precisely as Stuart C. has
described. The ending section of the
video, though, adds a wonderful new level of mystery to the narrative,
doesn't it?
