Army Dreamers Lyrics
What it's about: A mother grieves for her young son, who was killed on military maneuvers. Saddened by his unnecessary death, she wrestles with her guilt over what she could have done to prevent it.
Running time: 2:59
Delius Lyrics
What it's about: Kate’s tribute to English composer Frederick Delius. The subtitle, Song Of Summer, comes from one of Delius’ works, and from a BBC documentary Kate saw about the composer’s life.
Running time: 2:50
Passing Through Air Lyrics
What it's about: A simple composition using weather phenomena as metaphors for love. This is one of Kate's earliest works -- originally recorded in 1973 at Dave Gilmour's a few weeks after her 15th birthday.
Running time: 2:05
Etc: The front of the Holland sleeve is identical to the UK release. The rear has a white border. Scan courtesy of Bart.
