Oh, I dunno. I certainly liked the song sung by Martin Carthy. Although it did not have a beat, each line flowed up and down in the same way.

In a similar way, fabric can be striped, or it could have flowing, sub-parallel lines of color. Each way is a pattern. The song Geordie is of this second type - flowing, parallel sounds.

Thanks for all the illustrations of musicians and singers. It must have taken a lot of work to assemble all those images.
