Okay, this is not a list, but what about "I'm cloudbusting,Daddy?"- well it really means something when you have lost your father when you were young,and you see yourself as carrying on some kind of tradition because he no longer can- I'm a mess every time I hear that line. Oh, and the spoken part in Suspended in Gaffa where it sounds like she's talking in her sleep, and she goes, "I'm scared of the changes"? Then there's that wonderful bass break- yes Bad News fans, a bass break, just like in "Pretty Woman"- after the refrain in "Never be Mine". And I think the most directly emotional delivery of any line in the whole KaTe ouvre is near the end of "You're the One" where she really seems at the end of her tether, she has lapsed into an uncharacteristic quotation of "A Whiter Shade of Pale", and then cuts into that, breaking the whole structure of the verse by finishing it off halfway through with "Just forget it all right!" Okay I guess it is a kind of list- and could get a lot longer ...
