Subject: RE: A pleasant musical oddity
Yes, LTS, it was definitely "water is wide," with the common folk lyrics. There may also have been some non-folky, but by now hoary old "churchy" verses, but I wasn't really paying that much attention to the lyrics after I recognized it. I was more intent of listening for dissonances between the male and female melodies lines. There were places where it sounded "different," but I didn't hear anything that made me wince.
